Rating T-Meter Title | Year Add Date
14% Our Family Wedding (2010) " This inexplicable Hollywood movie contains a shocking collection of racial stereotypes..." — Guardian [UK]
Posted Jun 25, 2010
67% Wild Grass (Les Herbes Folles) (2010) " A tiresome whimsy." — Guardian [UK]
Posted Jun 25, 2010
48% Nativity! () " Another British comedy limps into cinemas having inexplicably wrestled its way out of a television script meeting." — Observer [UK]
Posted Dec 4, 2009
15% Mr. Right (2006) " It isn't brave enough to show anyone actually being gay and having sex, but gathers its preening cast around a dinner table to bitch at one another." — Observer [UK]
Posted Dec 4, 2009
25% Law Abiding Citizen (2009) " [It's] pretending to examine the nature of justice, test the parameters of law and probe the relationship between good and evil. But really it's just intent on blowing shit up." — Observer [UK]
Posted Dec 4, 2009
82% Paranormal Activity (2009) " It never really convinces on the demonic level. Yet it does partly succeed as a relationship movie." — Observer [UK]
Posted Dec 4, 2009
48% My Sister's Keeper (2009) " Directed by Nick Cassavetes with a syrupiness that would, I imagine, have made his father John smack the New York sidewalks in fury." — Observer [UK]
Posted Jul 3, 2009
72% Sunshine Cleaning (2009) " This is nearly a decent family comedy - but like the mantra-chuntering character Adams plays, it's just not confident enough of its strong points to really stand out." — Observer [UK]
Posted Jul 3, 2009
15% Year One (2009) " Made with such laziness of invention that everyone involved deserves a whack on the head with a club." — Observer [UK]
Posted Jul 3, 2009
78% The End of the Line (2009) " Too long with Ted Danson telling me how bad things are at sea resulted in my buying a nice piece of halibut for dinner that night." — Observer [UK]
Posted Jun 16, 2009
42% The Last House on the Left (2009) " This isn't scary, just plain exploitative." — Observer [UK]
Posted Jun 16, 2009
45% New Town Killers (2008) " A series of illogical twists derails a chase movie that ends in the unfortunate metaphor of an empty box." — Observer [UK]
Posted Jun 16, 2009
48% Doghouse (2009) " A dim zombie comedy." — Observer [UK]
Posted Jun 16, 2009
50% Soi Cowboy () " This wilful obscurantism comes across merely as a pose, an undergraduate homage to both Antonioni and Apichatpong Weerasethakul." — Observer [UK]
Posted Jun 16, 2009
82% Into the Wild (2007) " While the viewer may sympathise with McCandless's saintly rejection of materialism and his pursuit of eternal truths in a mapped-out world, there's little irony in the film, and the deluded Chris never actually helps anyone else." — Observer [UK]
Posted Nov 17, 2007
83% George Washington (2000) " Amid languorous style, the story gets lost, which is a pity because it could have been a nice quirky one." — Guardian [UK]
Posted Jul 17, 2007
91% Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan (2006) " The more I think about the film, the less amusing it becomes." — Guardian [UK]
Posted Oct 28, 2006
2/5 65% Lawless (2012) " Star-studded and violent yet empty as a broken whisky bottle." — Guardian [UK]
Posted May 20, 2012
3/5 84% Contagion (2011) " I was shuffling nervously in my seat, edging away from the sniffling man next to me. Nobody shook hands or embraced after this screening." — Guardian [UK]
Posted Sep 5, 2011
61% Bunny and the Bull (2011) " There's a bit of Withnail and I about the pairing and their story, but not nearly enough emotional momentum to help it out of the M&S dressing gown of cult nerdery." — Observer [UK]
Posted Dec 4, 2009
90% Séraphine (2009) " Séraphine is a deceptively subtle tale." — Guardian [UK]
Posted Dec 4, 2009
73% Rudo y Cursi (2009) " Not as obviously delightful as Y tu mamá también, Rudo y Cursi is never less than enjoyable, helped by charismatic playing between two stars constantly calling each other "pendejo" and some gorgeous camera work from Adam Kimmel." — Observer [UK]
Posted Jul 3, 2009
89% Red Cliff (Chi Bi) (2009) " With some of the best battle scenes since Peter Jackson's The Two Towers, a smattering of 1980s love scenes and all the far eastern promise of a Twinings advert, you can't really beat Red Cliff as the classiest and most fabulous blockbuster of the summer." — Observer [UK]
Posted Jun 16, 2009
78% The Hangover (2009) " The director, harnessing the talents of a relatively unknown cast, creates a genuine minor classic of the genre." — Observer [UK]
Posted Jun 16, 2009
85% Looking for Eric (2010) " Looking for Eric is likely to be as popular a film as Loach has made since he began working in 1964. They may even have to adjust the old cliché: it only takes 45 years to score a goal, Ken." — Observer [UK]
Posted Jun 16, 2009
85% In Search of a Midnight Kiss (2008) " A very funny, talky and kvetchy film about loneliness and connections, mixing romance with frank sex talk and building into poignancy." — Observer [UK]
Posted Jun 5, 2008
26% Lions for Lambs (2007) " It's an unironic work that demands the audience's attention and should provoke a personal, even physical, response from each individual." — Observer [UK]
