"The most purely fun movie ever made."
Posted May 6, 2008
 
Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)95%
/
4/5
 
"Unquestionably it's a feat of imagination and technique, but an hour of it is more than enough."
Posted May 5, 2008
 
Tetsuo: The Iron Man (1988)73%
/
3/5
 
"It's supposed to be fun, and it is, in spots."
Posted May 3, 2008
 
Iron Man (2008)92%
/

"Leave it to the French to make Suspiria look like a '30s drawing-room comedy."
Posted Apr 30, 2008
 
Inside (2007)100%
/
4/5
 
"Giddy brain-dead fun that goes to such pains to debunk stereotypes that the debunking itself becomes a joke."
Posted Apr 28, 2008
 
Harold and Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay (2008)54%
/
5/5
 
"At its best, "[REC]" is a stress test, with genuinely frightening and surreal use of grainy, fidgety camerawork and eerie night-vision."
Posted Apr 24, 2008
 
[Rec] (2007)90%
/
4/5
 
"Good low-calorie fun."
Posted Apr 20, 2008
 
The Forbidden Kingdom (2008)61%
/
2/5
 
"Carrey fans will be disappointed that his character pretty much gets lost in the shuffle."
Posted Apr 15, 2008
 
Doing Time on Maple Drive (1992)n/a
/
1/5
 
"Often, fanboys offended by an unsolicited remake of an adored film say "Why don't they remake a bad movie?" Well, they have remade a bad movie, and the result is a worse movie."
Posted Apr 13, 2008
 
Prom Night (2008)9%
/
2/5
 
"By the time the killer fully emerges from the shadows, clad head to toe in black, leaping around like some Filipino ripoff of Spider-Man 3, the game is pretty much lost."
Posted Apr 12, 2008
 
Prom Night (1980)33%
/
4/5
 
"It isn't one of the brightest lights in horror-film history, but it does its job remorselessly and well."
Posted Apr 6, 2008
 
The Ruins (2008)42%
/
5/5
 
"At heart, Funny Games is about the totalitarianism of cinema itself."
Posted Apr 3, 2008
 
Funny Games (2008)49%
/
4/5
 
"Stop-Loss isn't much as a narrative, but it does herald the return of a singular voice that's been silent for far too long."
Posted Mar 30, 2008
 
Stop-Loss (2008)65%
/
5/5
 
"American Zombie works on several levels of satire."
Posted Mar 27, 2008
 
American Zombie (2008)67%
/
5/5
 
"About twenty minutes into it I decided to pretend it was a long-lost mid-'80s film Marshall had dusted off and put his name on."
Posted Mar 23, 2008
 
Doomsday (2008)41%
/
4/5
 
"A bit too much on the frenetic side, the movie is nonetheless colorful and diverting."
Posted Mar 15, 2008
 
Dr. Seuss' Horton Hears a Who! (2008)78%
/
5/5
 
"What Haneke has actually done is to satirize the complex relationship between the story and the audience. On that level it's a triumph."
Posted Mar 13, 2008
 
Funny Games (1998)61%
/
5/5
 
"As summer movies go, X-Men is remarkably crisp and economical."
Posted Mar 12, 2008
 
X-Men (2000)80%
/
3/5
 
"It just sits there, doing nothing that a competent made-for-cable movie with C-list stars couldn't do."
Posted Mar 11, 2008
 
The Mexican (2001)56%
/
1/5
 
"About the most uninspired rehash of a popular hit I've ever seen."
Posted Mar 11, 2008
 
Men in Black II (2002)38%
/
3/5
 
"Just a collection of sketches in which Jones and Smith run into farcical E.T.s."
Posted Mar 11, 2008
 
Men in Black (1997)90%
/
5/5
 
"The film is cool, contemplative, a puzzle movie in which you see the finished puzzle right up front and then watch as it disassembles itself."
Posted Mar 11, 2008
 
Memento (2001)94%
/
4/5
 
"Owes about 55 percent of its charm to De Niro, who can be hilarious just sitting there."
Posted Mar 11, 2008
 
Meet the Parents (2000)82%
/
4/5
 
"Long but never boring, spiritual but never soggy, this is the brand of big entertainment Hollywood is best at but so rarely does right these days."
Posted Mar 11, 2008
 
Meet Joe Black (1998)49%
/
4/5
 
"Consistently filthy and funny, with the Farrellys' usual attention to disability that will surely be misread as insensitivity to disability."
Posted Mar 11, 2008
 
Me, Myself & Irene (2000)46%
/
3/5
 
"The paranoid details of the premise are thoroughly worked out; the characters and motives, much less so."

Posted Mar 11, 2008
 
The Matrix Revolutions (2003)37%
/

Posted Mar 11, 2008
 
The Matrix Reloaded (2003)73%
/
5/5
 
"It's an undeniably square, throwback movie, but there's no major crime in making 'em like they used to, and doing it this elegantly."
Posted Mar 11, 2008
 
Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World (2003)84%
/
3/5
 
"Crisp and competent and often witty, but it only does what it's supposed to do; it's never quite inspired or exhilarating..."
Posted Mar 11, 2008
 
The Mask of Zorro (1998)85%
/
4/5
 
"Mesmerizing yet cold and remote -- an exotic fish we can't touch."
Posted Mar 11, 2008
 
Lost Highway (1997)53%
/

Posted Mar 11, 2008
 
Life Is Beautiful (1998)77%

Posted Mar 11, 2008
 
The Hills Have Eyes (2006)50%
/
5/5
 
"The inner tension of the film emerges from Jackson's enjoyment of the girls' bustling insanity and then his gradual withdrawal from it."
Posted Mar 11, 2008
 
Heavenly Creatures (1994)95%
/
1/5
 
"One of the stupidest and most boring films of the year."
Posted Mar 9, 2008

/
1/5

Posted Feb 27, 2008
 
Charlie Bartlett (2007)53%
/

Gummo (1997)29%
/
2/5

Posted Feb 14, 2008
 
Guess Who (2005)43%
/
2/5
 
"...just cannibalizes itself, exploiting Japanese spirituality for a few Saturday-night shocks..."
