	30 Days of Night (2007)	"Although the middle section of the movie version has an intense claustrophobia that's compelling, it's weighed down by a lethally dull opening half-hour and an absurd finale."	Ethan Alter

	Across the Universe (2007)	"Across the Universe is little more than a nostalgia trip back to a time that's already been mythologized to death."	Ethan Alter

	Beowulf (2007)	"I know I'm in the minority here, but I enjoyed the hell out of Robert Zemeckis' bloody epic."	Ethan Alter

	Blackout (2008)	"Blackout is Jerry LaMothe's ambitious attempt to try and craft a Do the Right Thing for the 21st century. He falls short of that impossible goal, but Blackout does have several things to recommend it."	Ethan Alter

	The Bourne Ultimatum (2007)	"If this really is the last we've seen of Jason Bourne, at least he can head off into retirement knowing that he's earned a well-deserved rest."	Ethan Alter

	The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (2008)	"It's an entirely serviceable sequel. But if you go in expecting the same magic found in Wardrobe, you're bound to be disappointed."	Ethan Alter

	The Dark Knight (2008)	"A very good movie that falls short of greatness."	Ethan Alter

	The Edge of Heaven (2008)	"The Edge of Heaven confirms its director as a major new talent in world cinema."	Ethan Alter

	Get Smart (2008)	"Considering the talent involved, it's a shame that Get Smart isn't just a tad bit -- well, smarter."	Ethan Alter

	The Happening (2008)	"It's an interesting premise for a doomsday thriller, but Shyamalan botches it from the get-go."	Ethan Alter

	Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008)	"One of the most purely enjoyable--not to mention dazzling--comic book blockbusters to come along this summer."	Ethan Alter

	How the Garcia Girls Spent Their Summer (2008)	"Although the story is overly familiar, Riedel's evocation of small-town life rings true."	Ethan Alter

	Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008)	"Despite its many flaws, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is an enjoyable romp that does no harm to the character's legacy."	Ethan Alter

	Iron Man (2008)	"Iron Man accomplished something I didn't expect: it makes this erstwhile tin man look like an honest-to-god superhero."	Ethan Alter

	Jumper (2008)	"I'm not going to beat around the bush here: Jumper is a terrible movie."	Ethan Alter

	Justice League: The New Frontier (2007)	"The New Frontier lives up to the high standards set by Batman: The Animated Series, Batman Beyond and Justice League Unlimited."	Ethan Alter

	Leatherheads (2008)	"The movie stops dead in its tracks every time Renee Zellweger wanders into frame."	Ethan Alter

	My Kid Could Paint That (2007)	"Documentary filmmaker Amir Bar-Lev lucked onto a great story when he started filming a pint-sized abstract painter named Marla."	Ethan Alter

	Redbelt (2008)	"What holds this rickety contraption together is Ejiofor, who proves himself a genuine, grade-A movie star."	Ethan Alter

	Resurrecting the Champ (2007)	"It's the scrappy underdog in a season full of blockbuster heavyweights."	Ethan Alter

	Righteous Kill (2008)	"We're stuck watching to glum '70s icons go through the motions in a glum movie."	Ethan Alter

	Sex and the City - The Movie (2008)	"Neither a classic for all time nor a [disaster], Sex and the City is the very definition of a decent summer blockbuster--entertaining and entirely disposable."	Ethan Alter

	Shine a Light (2008)	"The movie is a blast of pure rock and roll energy."	Ethan Alter

	The Simpsons Movie (2007)	"Let's be honest, though: there's no way a Simpsons Movie was going to be perfect. But is this the best possible Simpsons Movie that we could have hoped for? The answer is a resounding "Woo hoo!""	Ethan Alter

	Stardust (2007)	"Mr. Vaughn, I know The Princess Bride and your take on Stardust ain't no Princess Bride."	Ethan Alter

	Stop-Loss (2008)	"While the film is far from perfect, Stop-Loss is one of the better narrative features to be made about the Iraq War."	Ethan Alter

	Street Kings (2008)	"At the end of the day, it's impossible to escape the feeling that we've seen this story told before."	Ethan Alter

	Things We Lost in the Fire (2007)	"Del Toro does some of his very best work here, delivering a raw, honest performance that avoids many of the usual clich�s that come with depictions of drug addicts."	Ethan Alter

	Tropic Thunder (2008)	"Tropic Thunder deserves to be seen solely for Downey Jr.'s brilliant one-man show, which, in a perfect world, would be recognized by Oscar voters come January."	Ethan Alter

	The Wackness (2008)	"A pleasant mid-summer buzz."	Ethan Alter

	WALL-E (2008)	"While the film's social message comes through loud and clear, it never detracts from the heart of the picture--the unlikely romance between Wall*E and EVE."	Ethan Alter

	Wanted (2008)	"Bekmambetov brings a kinetic energy to the picture that helps you forget--or at least ignore--its severely underdeveloped story."	Ethan Alter
