    Walking Tall (2004)

    Vera Drake (2004)

    " In a hopelessly polarized debate, Leigh allows us to see real people involved in real situations. The film will keep people on either side of the abortion debates talking." — Christianity Today

    Unleashed (2005)

    " Freeman is better than his role, and Hoskins is a powerful presence. Li almost pulls off a psychologically complex role. But in the end, Unleashed is a muddled film." — Christianity Today

    Open Water (2004)

    The Notebook (2004)

    " A thoughtful, emotionally rich film in which we see that great love, like deep faith, is forged on doubt, trials, and hardships. Only then does it deliver its deepest rewards." — Christianity Today

    The Jacket (2005)

    " A solid attempt to wrestle with some big questions. The cast is exemplary and the premise and script are well reasoned and artful. But it doesn't quite come together." — Christianity Today

    Code 46 (2004)
