	" I'm still waiting for the war-on-terror thriller that has more on its mind than the threat al-Qaida poses to movie stars." -- Slate Posted Oct 10, 2008	Body of Lies (2008)	50%
	" The trouble is that the movie in which Poppy does, in fact, exist never quite rises to her level." -- Slate Posted Oct 9, 2008	Happy-Go-Lucky (2008)	95%
	" All this music and movement lends the movie a shaggy, Altman-esque texture, a sense that its scope is wider than any one character's story." -- Slate Posted Oct 3, 2008	Rachel Getting Married (2008)	85%
	" Like Before Sunrise or the lovely karaoke-bar sequence at the center of Lost in Translation, Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist captures the excitement of exploring a city with someone you barely know and really, really like." -- Slate Posted Oct 3, 2008	Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist (2008)	72%
	" *The timing of its release is so perfect, and the figure at its center so fascinating, that Boogie Man* is nonetheless required viewing for anyone obsessed with the 2008 race.*" -- Slate* Posted Sep 26, 2008	Boogie Man: The Lee Atwater Story (2008)	91%
	" Self-destructive, Oedipally fixated slackers everywhere can rest safe in the knowledge that at last they have a voice in pop culture." -- Slate Posted Sep 25, 2008	Choke (2008)	56%
	" The last two lines of dialogue may be the best kicker I've heard in a movie this year." -- Slate Posted Sep 18, 2008	Ghost Town (2008)	85%
	" A movie that, for all its good intentions, feels thoroughly phony and mildly embarrassing, like an extended PSA about inappropriate touching." -- Slate Posted Sep 12, 2008	Towelhead (2008)	49%
	" *For those who like their black comedy without a trace of cream or sugar, Burn* holds up as a minor Coen brothers comedy, a Hudsucker Proxy rather than a Big Lebowski.*" -- Slate* Posted Sep 11, 2008	Burn After Reading (2008)	78%
	" Let's hope Anna Faris' next project looks past her outer beauty and unleashes her inner weirdo." -- Slate Posted Aug 22, 2008	The House Bunny (2008)	39%
	" *Anyone walking into Tropic Thunder* looking to be offended by Downey's minstrel turn will soon find that the movie is two steps ahead.*" -- Slate* Posted Aug 13, 2008	Tropic Thunder (2008)	83%
	" Why did I feel such affection for this scruffy, hokey little movie? Maybe it's the same logic that applies to wine-drinking itself: Sure, a great claret would be ideal, but an OK ros� is better than washing down your dinner with water." -- Slate Posted Aug 7, 2008	Bottle Shock (2008)	45%
	" The swath of destruction these boys leave in their wake seems disproportionate to the prevailing mood of dopey fun." -- Slate Posted Aug 6, 2008	Pineapple Express (2008)	68%
	" *Without bombast or pathos -- as gracefully as a tightrope walker -- Man on Wire* brings back a time when the towers were still symbols of aspiration and possibility.*" -- Slate* Posted Aug 1, 2008	Man on Wire (2008)	100%
	" Swing Vote isn't exactly a toothless political satire. It's something worse: a satire with dentures." -- Slate Posted Jul 31, 2008	Swing Vote (2008)	38%
	" The movie's concern with its characters' shifting alliances and petty vanities also evokes early John Sayles and, at times, Eric Rohmer." -- Slate Posted Jul 25, 2008	Baghead (2008)	78%
	" The problem with the movie's semisupernatural crime plot isn't that the resolution is completely outlandish; it's that the outlandishness is insufficiently grounded in pseudoscience." -- Slate Posted Jul 24, 2008	The X-Files: I Want to Believe (2008)	32%
	" *The movie's spirit is somewhere between High School Musical* and Hedwig and the Angry Inch; it's at once dorkily wholesome and proudly slutty.*" -- Slate* Posted Jul 18, 2008	Mamma Mia! (2008)	53%
	" *For all The Dark Knight's occasionally bombastic excess, it sort of does top them all, and not only in star power and sheer number of things blown up." -- Slate* Posted Jul 17, 2008	The Dark Knight (2008)	95%
	" *All a 'what if' movie needs to win me over are some lush costumes and production design, a smart casting choice or two, and a really ridiculous basic idea. Death Defying Acts* obliges on all fronts.*" -- Slate* Posted Jul 11, 2008	Death Defying Acts (2008)	46%
	" Unlike many action filmmakers, del Toro doesn't thrill to the hardware of manmade technology. He prefers the soft, organic textures of flesh, and his trove of imaginary beasties is unmatched in modern fantasy filmmaking." -- Slate Posted Jul 11, 2008	Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008)	88%
	" As soon as the hero becomes another wounded demigod brooding on rooftops, the movie loses its sting." -- Slate Posted Jul 2, 2008	Hancock (2008)	38%
	" *If the graphic-novel-style hyperviolence of Sin City* or 300 is your thing, go ahead and knock yourself out. Or let Angelina do it for you � It feels so much nicer that way.*" -- Slate* Posted Jun 27, 2008	Wanted (2008)	73%
	" Wall-E is an improbable delight, a G-rated crowd-pleaser that seems poised to pack theaters as efficiently as the titular robot crams his chest cavity with rubble." -- Slate Posted Jun 26, 2008	WALL-E (2008)	96%
	" This tale of a guru who brings joy to all who meet him is the most joy-draining 88 minutes I've ever spent outside a hospital waiting room." -- Slate Posted Jun 19, 2008	The Love Guru (2008)	14%
	" Herzog the crank is a flimsy cover for Herzog the wonderstruck little boy, marveling at everything from the viscosity of seal milk (it pours like wax) to the spiderlike crab creatures that skitter along the ocean floor beneath the Ross Sea." -- Slate Posted Jun 13, 2008	Encounters At the End of the World (2007)	93%
	" Why remake a crappy movie five years later if it's only going to be marginally less crappy?" -- Slate Posted Jun 13, 2008	The Incredible Hulk (2008)	67%
	" The whole solemn concoction is preposterous and not always in a fun way -- even at 99 minutes' running time, the movie provides plenty of opportunities for watch-consultation in the dark." -- Slate Posted Jun 13, 2008	The Happening (2008)	18%
	" This is a historical epic like Mom -- or David Lean -- used to make. It's got transgenerational blood feuds, galloping steeds, lucky talismans carried for years by separated lovers, and steppes -- lots and lots of steppes." -- Slate Posted Jun 6, 2008	Mongol (2008)	88%
	" The movie's initially brisk pacing slackens when the girls spend a holiday in Mexico that's long enough for them to cycle through an entire resort-wear collection." -- Slate Posted May 29, 2008	Sex and the City - The Movie (2008)	50%
	" Expecting Brando-esque menace or Dreyfus-ian uplift from the Indiana Jones tetralogy is like going to the candy counter at the mall multiplex and asking for some goat cheese and a nice cabernet." -- Slate Posted May 22, 2008	Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008)	77%
	" As crisp and cool as a swig of Champagne." -- Slate Posted May 16, 2008	Reprise (2008)	86%
	" They may make for clunky religious parables, but the Narnia books -- and so far, the movies based on them -- are wonderful as stories about childhood and its loss." -- Slate Posted May 15, 2008	The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (2008)	66%
	" Shapes hurtle toward you, then recede abruptly, each bearing some fragment of narrative information that has now passed you by forever. Nausea and anxiety begin to wash over you in overlapping waves." -- Slate Posted May 9, 2008	Speed Racer (2008)	37%
	" Noise is never quite as smart as it tries to be. But as summer and its mouth-breathing blockbusters loom large on the horizon, there's something touching about a movie that even tries." -- Slate Posted May 8, 2008	Noise (2008)	50%
	" This middle section, in which the newly energized Tony tinkers with his emerging superpowers like a kid in shop class, is the movie's finest and funnest hour." -- Slate Posted May 1, 2008	Iron Man (2008)	93%
	" Indisputably an impressive piece of documentary filmmaking. Whether that makes it a great document about what actually happened at Abu Ghraib is a separate question, and one that goes to the heart of Morris' project as a filmmaker." -- Slate Posted Apr 25, 2008	Standard Operating Procedure (2008)	78%
	" Most of the wannabe outrageous racial humor is too shallow to constitute real satire." -- Slate Posted Apr 25, 2008	Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay (2008)	54%
	" The most disappointing movie of the year so far." -- Slate Posted Apr 24, 2008	Baby Mama (2008)	62%
	" Insofar as Spurlock draws any political conclusions at all, they don't go much further than the title of the Elvis Costello song that plays under the final credits, (What's So Funny 'Bout) Peace, Love, and Understanding?" -- Slate Posted Apr 18, 2008	Where in the World is Osama Bin Laden? (2008)	36%
	" *Like its hero, Forgetting Sarah Marshall* is a little soft around the middle, but all the more loveable for that.*" -- Slate* Posted Apr 17, 2008	Forgetting Sarah Marshall (2008)	85%
	" *As tough as Lawrence is to like, Smart People* is even harder to hate, mainly because of the sharply observed script by novelist Mark Jude Poirier.*" -- Slate* Posted Apr 11, 2008	Smart People (2008)	49%
	" There's something cynical about Ayers' attempt to preserve Ludlow as a hero after scene upon scene meant to show, with heavy irony, how lawlessly he enforced the law." -- Slate Posted Apr 10, 2008	Street Kings (2008)	36%
	" I spent the whole 90 minutes in a state of bemused, vaguely pleasurable anticipation, always hoping for the next gorgeous image to come along and sweep me away." -- Slate Posted Apr 4, 2008	My Blueberry Nights (2008)	47%
	" Why does the whole thing feel sloggier than the climactic game, a near-scoreless battle waged in a lake of mud?" -- Slate Posted Apr 3, 2008	Leatherheads (2008)	52%
	" *In Drillbit Taylor, produced by Judd Apatow, co-written by Seth Rogen and Kristofor Brown, and starring Owen Wilson, the career trajectories of three comic talents converge to dispiriting effect." -- Slate* Posted Mar 20, 2008	Drillbit Taylor (2008)	26%
	" Haneke's been quoted as saying he wants his movies to make people think, but Funny Games is 110 minutes of pure reptile-brain jolts (fear, mostly), with a couple of meta-narrative finger wags thrown in." -- Slate Posted Mar 13, 2008	Funny Games (2008)	51%
	" A playful riff on film noir that starts by upending every '40s movie clich�." -- Slate Posted Mar 7, 2008	Married Life (2008)	58%
	" Rather than taking the trouble to imagine what early civilization might have been like -- its culture, its language, its warfare, its family life -- the movie simply transposes a banal Hollywood epic into Paleolithic times." -- Slate Posted Mar 6, 2008	10,000 B.C. (2008)	9%
	" Feminist subtext aside, the movie is primarily an excuse for ogling some blue-chip actor-flesh." -- Slate Posted Feb 28, 2008	The Other Boleyn Girl (2008)	41%
