1/4	"The script is so clich�-ridden, the characters so thin and the production so visibly cheap, [the filmmakers] never graduate from titillation to thrill." -- Globe and Mail Posted Apr 24, 2007	Crossing (2005)	n/a
3/4	"This comedy, adapted by writer and director Ryan Murphy from the real Augusten Burroughs' apparently truthful memoir of the same title, wears a deep and sophisticated shade of black and is also very, very sad." -- Globe and Mail Posted Oct 20, 2006	Running with Scissors (2006)	29%
2.5/4	"Man of the Year is a moderately funny little movie that isn't pointed enough to successfully skewer its political targets." -- Globe and Mail Posted Oct 13, 2006	Man of the Year (2006)	20%
3/4	"Yes, this film can actually broaden Burtynsky's work, underlining the power of the photographs by revealing more of the subject." -- Globe and Mail Posted Sep 29, 2006	Manufactured Landscapes (2007)	84%
2/4	"As we wait in anticipation and wait, and wait, what initially appears as subtle humour gradually emerges as very little humour at all." -- Globe and Mail Posted Sep 29, 2006	Keeping Mum (2006)	55%
2.5/4	"Both veteran director Andrew Davis and writer Ron L. Brinkerhoff know a clich� when they see one... so they dutifully point them out to us in this predictable tale of a much-decorated rescue swimmer passing the torch to a promising new recruit." -- Globe and Mail Posted Sep 29, 2006	The Guardian (2006)	37%
2/4	"*The whole experience is enough to make one give thanks for the missionary position, and heterosexual complacency in surely not the reaction Shortbus* was looking for.*" -- Globe and Mail* Posted Sep 23, 2006	Shortbus (2006)	65%
1/4	"*The creators of Flyboys* know no image too clich�d, no narrative convention too exhausted and no psychological motivation too pat that it can't do service.*" -- Globe and Mail* Posted Sep 22, 2006	Flyboys (2006)	33%
2/4	"A frustrating film full of many wonderful parts that the filmmaker ultimately betrays." -- Globe and Mail Posted Aug 4, 2006	The Secret Life of Words (2006)	69%
3/4	"Despite its reliance on the white characters for drama, its biggest achievement is simply in revealing the sheer horror of the genocide." -- Globe and Mail Posted Jul 28, 2006	Beyond the Gates (2007)	83%
3/4	"*Desplechin's big, bold, iconoclastic feature Rois et Reine* is a disconcerting film that can turn your head at the oddest moments.*" -- Globe and Mail* Posted Jun 30, 2006	Kings and Queen (2005)	87%
2.5/4	"The film achieves a dramatic intensity that is both admirable and frustrating." -- Globe and Mail Posted Jun 16, 2006	Keane (2004)	83%
2/4	"The final third of the script feels like an afterthought in a film that cannot bring any plausibility to its gritty setting nor its characters' plight because it began with an inherently sentimental plot device." -- Globe and Mail Posted May 26, 2006	Fetching Cody (2006)	0%
2/4	"Suffers badly from an emotional aimlessness." -- Globe and Mail Posted Apr 21, 2006	Don't Come Knocking (2006)	42%
2/4	"The results can be gripping, but also difficult to follow in some places -- and difficult to swallow in others." -- Globe and Mail Posted Apr 21, 2006	3 Needles (2006)	35%

2.5/4	"A film of genre-busting twists and devilish narrative turns that never manages to turn its quirkiness into genuine charm nor its cleverness into real feeling." -- Globe and Mail Posted Mar 17, 2006	Lucid (2005)	14%
3/4	"Thompson's script is clever and, despite that monstrous makeup, her performance is deliciously balanced by the standards of what is, after all, a children's fable." -- Globe and Mail Posted Jan 27, 2006	Nanny McPhee (2006)	73%
1/4	"A jack of all formulas and master of none." -- Globe and Mail Posted Jan 20, 2006	Guy X (2007)	36%
