Quantum of Solace (2008) 63% 2/4 EDIT “Where did the great hero go, the one from Sean Connery in Goldfinger to Daniel Craig himself in Casino Royale, the elegant killer spy who spews memorable lines, his world-traveling adventures engorged with intrigue and mysterious women?” – San Diego Union-Tribune Nov 2, 2015 Full Review Frost/Nixon (2008) 93% 3/4 EDIT “It's a credit to the actor that by the end, Langella is living, it seems, in Nixon's skin.” – San Diego Union-Tribune Oct 28, 2014 Full Review Slumdog Millionaire (2008) 92% 3.5/4 EDIT “Slumdog Millionaire is a giddy, breathtaking experience, kind of like winning a million bucks. It's also tough, violent and shocking.” – San Diego Union-Tribune Feb 20, 2013 Full Review Lymelife (2008) 63% 3/4 EDIT “The rest of the cast is splendid, including Alec Baldwin, a long way from the network executive on the TV sitcom 30 Rock.” – San Diego Union-Tribune May 14, 2012 Full Review Watchmen (2009) 64% EDIT “Alan Moore was right in detaching himself from the project, maintaining his integrity.” – San Diego Union-Tribune Mar 3, 2009 Full Review Choke (2008) 56% 3/4 EDIT “Based on the nifty book by Pacific Northwest author Chuck Palahniuk, who also wrote Fight Club, the movie is an examination of obsession, male friendship and mother love.” – San Diego Union-Tribune Sep 26, 2008 Full Review The Dark Knight (2008) 94% 3.5/4 EDIT “The Dark Knight is ahead of the curve, dense and demanding, an art film on a grand scale. It won't make you smile, but it will make you ponder this mesmerizing experience.” – San Diego Union-Tribune Jul 16, 2008 Full Review Hancock (2008) 42% 2/4 EDIT “This superhero saga fizzles.” – San Diego Union-Tribune Jul 1, 2008 Full Review Paranoid Park (2007) 76% 2.5/4 EDIT “Paranoid Park is only 84 minutes, a long, slow 84 minutes, with delusions of grandeur.” – San Diego Union-Tribune Mar 21, 2008 Full Review Chicago 10 (2007) 80% 3.5/4 EDIT “Chicago 10 is a movie for parents and grandparents to take their older children and grandchildren. It's worth a field trip for high school and college American history classes.” – San Diego Union-Tribune Mar 14, 2008 Full Review Zodiac (2007) 90% 3.5/4 EDIT “At more than 2- 1/2 hours, Zodiac is like a deep, involving book, a page-turner that you can't put down. You keep reading and, in this case, you keep watching.” – San Diego Union-Tribune Mar 2, 2007 Full Review Dreamgirls (2006) 79% 4/4 EDIT “...A Christmas Day present to the rest of us.” – San Diego Union-Tribune Dec 29, 2006 Full Review Tenacious D in: The Pick of Destiny (2006) 53% 3/4 EDIT “Just fasten your seat belt for an undisciplined, unrefined mess. That's a compliment, by the way, on the movie's pleasures and appeal.” – San Diego Union-Tribune Nov 24, 2006 Full Review Running With Scissors (2006) 32% 3/4 EDIT “Based on the nimbly-written, hilarious, moving and terrifying best-selling Augusten Burroughs memoir, it's a tale that incorporates drug addiction, pedophilia, mental illness, the ordeal of surviving a nightmare childhood.” – San Diego Union-Tribune Oct 27, 2006 Full Review Clerks II (2006) 63% 3/4 EDIT “It's funny and poignant and not for the easily offended.” – San Diego Union-Tribune Jul 21, 2006 Full Review Brokeback Mountain (2005) 88% 4/4 EDIT “When Ennis del Mar and Jack Twist are together, it's simply about human beings in love. Two men. Now get over it.” – San Diego Union-Tribune Jan 6, 2006 Full Review
