Transsiberian (2008) 91% EDIT “A first-class white-knuckle trip.” – Seattle Times May 5, 2020 Full Review Thor: The Dark World (2013) 67% EDIT “Even with its flaws, Thor: The Dark World may be what the wretched Man of Steel should have been.” – Seattle Weekly Jul 14, 2015 Full Review The Wrestler (2008) 99% 3/4 EDIT “Mickey Rourke delivers such an unexpectedly moving, charming and physically impressive performance that he deserves some other award than Guy Who Gets Asked 'What The Hell Happened To You?' Most Often.” – Seattle Times Jan 8, 2009 Full Review Punisher: War Zone (2008) 29% 2.5/4 EDIT “The ultraviolent third stab at Marvel's homicidal vigilante is the best and closest to the source material.” – Seattle Times Dec 5, 2008 Full Review Transporter 3 (2008) 40% 2/4 EDIT “Another enjoyable if not particularly memorable installment.” – Seattle Times Nov 25, 2008 Full Review Quantum of Solace (2008) 63% 3.5/4 EDIT “Marc Forster seems like a counterintuitive choice to direct an action spectacle. But any doubts I might have had flew out the window and splattered onto the hood of a parked car during an early, hellacious brawl.” – Seattle Times Nov 13, 2008 Full Review Fear(s) of the Dark (2007) 72% 2/4 EDIT “Maybe different things scare the French. But I'll give them this: Prattling monologues can be unsettling.” – Seattle Times Oct 31, 2008 Full Review Zack and Miri Make a Porno (2008) 65% 2.5/4 EDIT “It's all vintage Smith -- if you can say that about a 38-year-old -- just pushed a little further.” – Seattle Times Oct 30, 2008 Full Review Sukiyaki Western Django (2007) 56% 2.5/4 EDIT “As much of a hoot as the movie is, it feels like just an exercise well before it ends.” – Seattle Times Oct 3, 2008 Full Review Religulous (2008) 69% 3/4 EDIT “It's sharp and outrageously funny enough to keep it from coming off like a self-righteous screed and to keep Maher from looking like the Michael Moore of religion -- for the most part.” – Seattle Times Oct 3, 2008 Full Review Humboldt County (2008) 60% 2.5/4 EDIT “A relaxed, sweetly amusing little indie effort that'll make you want to hang out with its inhabitants, except with better snack food than they have.” – Seattle Times Sep 26, 2008 Full Review Choke (2008) 56% 2/4 EDIT “There's a lot going on in Choke, and it may be more than first-time director Clark Gregg can handle.” – Seattle Times Sep 26, 2008 Full Review Ghost Town (2008) 85% 2.5/4 EDIT “Fans of Gervais' awkward, caustic brand of humor should be pleased to see him in a big Hollywood movie that'll make him more of a household name.” – Seattle Times Sep 19, 2008 Full Review Lakeview Terrace (2008) 44% 2/4 EDIT “A racial thriller that may be the feel-bad movie of the summer.” – Seattle Times Sep 19, 2008 Full Review Cthulhu (2008) 62% 1.5/4 EDIT “Too much about the movie is just amateurish.” – Seattle Times Sep 12, 2008 Full Review Righteous Kill (2008) 18% 1.5/4 EDIT “What a waste.” – Seattle Times Sep 12, 2008 Full Review Burn After Reading (2008) 78% 3/4 EDIT “A cruelly, insanely hilarious comedy populated with imbeciles whose appetites lead to giant helpings of Just Desserts.” – Seattle Times Sep 12, 2008 Full Review Traitor (2008) 64% 2.5/4 EDIT “First-time director Jeffrey Nachmanoff, known for The Day After Tomorrow script, wrote the screenplay. Of all people, Steve Martin came up with the idea. It is neither wild nor crazy.” – Seattle Times Aug 27, 2008 Full Review Death Race (2008) 41% 2/4 EDIT “Death Race should at least score points for its title, which is more apt than, say, Feelings Exploration. It's mostly a race, and there's a lot of death.” – Seattle Times Aug 21, 2008 Full Review Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2008) 18% 2/4 EDIT “The new feature-length Star Wars cartoon is so cute that I want to hug it. Tightly. Until it stops breathing.” – Seattle Times Aug 14, 2008 Full Review Pineapple Express (2008) 68% EDIT “Maybe I'd have thought this buddy-action-comedy was funnier and more exciting if I were as baked as its two heroes.” – Seattle Times Aug 5, 2008 Full Review The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor (2008) 13% 1/4 EDIT “If movies were people, The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor would be a total bimbo: nice-looking and kind of fun sometimes, but so unbearably empty and dumb that it doesn't matter.” – Seattle Times Aug 1, 2008 Full Review Operation Filmmaker (2007) 91% 2.5/4 EDIT “If learning about other cultures shows that we're all basically alike, Operation Filmmaker is a reminder that foreign countries have their own share of nitwits, too.” – Seattle Times Jul 25, 2008 Full Review Yella (2007) 82% 1.5/4 EDIT “An import non-thriller so enigmatic and subtle that it's inert.” – Seattle Times Jul 11, 2008 Full Review Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008) 86% 3/4 EDIT “Director Guillermo del Toro is a mad genius, and I want to get drunk with him.” – Seattle Times Jul 10, 2008 Full Review
