"While writer-director Garth Jennings is smart enough to realize he can’t merely traffic in nostalgia, the subplots he devises are painfully predictable." -- Time Out New York

Son of Rambow (2008)73%

4/6
 
"Much was made of this 'risky' casting, but it pays off beautifully. Downey, already a walking comic strip, imparts crucial verve to [director] Favreau’s static compositions." -- Time Out New York

"Mister Lonely invites us to escape into fantasy, then seems embarrassed by its own dare." -- Time Out New York

"In mere moments, the film evokes the whole of Americana. The bell rings, and your heart is already in your throat. Essential." -- Time Out New York

The First Saturday in May (2008)75%

"Though the material is clearly explained, little of it will shock viewers." -- Time Out New York

Constantine's Sword (2008)73%

2/6
 
"The film feels more like unusually well-funded softcore (complete with boring tedium) than sexed-up horror, though its splatter effects are enjoyably cartoonish." -- Time Out New York

Zombie Strippers (2008)36%

"he tensions of intellectual pride demand a quieter address; Dark Matter might have played like Shattered Glass in more capable hands." -- Time Out New York

Dark Matter (2008)34%

"All of these groaner developments, coscripted by Wong and crime novelist Lawrence Block, feel like a tour of the waxiest 1990s clichés ever." -- Time Out New York

My Blueberry Nights (2008)49%

"Flight of the Red Balloon fills its running time with leisurely gestures -- not unpleasantly if you can recalibrate your internal clock to what feels like a breezy Parisian summer full of uncertainty." -- Time Out New York

The Flight of the Red Balloon (2008)78%

"Smart, jazzy and unafraid to deflate egos, Morgan Neville’s fast-paced, finely critical study makes for a pungent intro to a movement now esteemed as a key alternative to the New York AbEx stranglehold." -- Time Out New York
Posted Mar 27, 2008
 
The Cool School (2008)93%

4/6
 
"This is a film that seems to require a more straightforward thriller approach. Still, it’s to Nekrasov’s credit that he doesn’t want his friend to have died in vain." -- Time Out New York

"Yes, Horton Hears a Who! has been dragged into the modern age, nowhere near as hyperactively as the Shrek movies, but not without damage." -- Time Out New York

"What CJ7 ultimately reveals about global tastes is not just the triumph of Spielberg’s brand of blockbuster imagineering, but of the Hollywood director’s influence as a planter of undercurrents of class rage and incipient maturation." -- Time Out New York

"It’s hard to resist luxuriating in these actors’ turns, especially the underrated Rachel McAdams as Harry’s mistress, playing against vampiness." -- Time Out New York

"Overscored and lacking even the faintest realism of period, the movie still bears undeniable trash charms, if nothing near the deep satisfactions of such medieval nonsense as Beckett." -- Time Out New York

"The movie refracts the difficulties of women through a fun-house mirror of disappointing men. Here, they’re pretty close to nightmarish." -- Time Out New York
