	" it's a close-to-definitive example of how to make a great play work on film, for all the very slight air of Hollywood compromise." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Nov 14, 2008	A Streetcar Named Desire (1951)	98%
	" I didn't hate Max Payne, but it's hard to summon up strong feelings of any kind about something so slick, remote and vacuum-packed you barely feel you've seen it." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Nov 14, 2008	Max Payne (2008)	18%
	" There are antics with fake ghosts and fish sausages - rather too many, but you've got to laugh." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Nov 14, 2008	Fine, Totally Fine (2008)	56%
	" Patrick Creadon's film is a lucid history lesson in the failures of successive Republican presidents to put a stopper in the country's leaking fiscal hole." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Nov 14, 2008	I.O.U.S.A. (2008)	92%
	" Or: Kevin Smith makes an icky and secretly conservative sex comedy." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Nov 14, 2008	Zack and Miri Make a Porno (2008)	64%
	" A village-pillaging extravaganza whose music and pitched slaughter compete to ruin your inner ear." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Nov 7, 2008	Tau Ming Chong (2008)	57%
	" If you can cope with the excruciating soundtrack medley (a jazz cover of Sex Bomb?) it's a perfectly jolly bauble." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Nov 7, 2008	Easy Virtue (2009)	58%
	" But once the two of them fall to fisticuffs, the movie has revealed itself as a lumpy and generic business." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Nov 7, 2008	Pride and Glory (2008)	34%
	" Despite the killer's slavering way with a scalpel, there's no blood spurting out into your near-vision, just a lot of hopeless acting in your face." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Nov 7, 2008	Scar ()	0%
	" Sly ensemble acting, the strong point in any JaBac film, feels like a safety net in this one." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Nov 7, 2008	Let's Talk About The Rain (2008)	77%
	" Quantum of Solace offers next to no solace, if we mean respite, but in plunging its hero into a revenge-displacement grudge mission, it has the compensation of a rock-solid dramatic idea, and the intelligence to run and run with it." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Oct 31, 2008	Quantum of Solace (2008)	65%
	" Refitted for the big screen, it becomes an eerily plastic business, like a blown-up doll's house." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Oct 24, 2008	High School Musical 3: Senior Year (2008)	68%
	" London is bombed and contrives to be less recognisable than it's ever been on film, full of people who don't look, act or even speak like Londoners." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Oct 24, 2008	Incendiary (2008)	26%
	" It�s spirited and funny in its better moments, and gives a sly spin to the clich�s rather than just parroting them wholesale." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Oct 17, 2008	Igor (2008)	32%
	" As well as being the most preposterously plotted action flick of this or any year, Eagle Eye is a prime example of technophobia at its most hypocritical." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Oct 17, 2008	Eagle Eye (2008)	27%
	" Still, it's an enterprising little movie in its location shooting, and I warmed to it - an overeagerness to entertain is hardly the worst crime." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Oct 10, 2008	Bigga than Ben (2008)	60%
	" But his prowling observational technique makes it pungent and frightening in scene after scene, an entry-pass to some obscure circle of hell. All in all, not an easy night out, but not an easy one to forget, either." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Oct 10, 2008	Gomorrah (2009)	95%
	" A ho-hum basketball documentary." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Oct 10, 2008	Gunnin' for That #1 Spot (2008)	74%
	" After the nifty Monster House, it's a disappointingly sluggish film from Gil Kenan." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Oct 10, 2008	City of Ember (2008)	49%
	" The production notes describe this as an epic sci-fi action thriller like no other, which is on every level a blessing - it's like being dropped into a tar pit of underlit tedium." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Oct 10, 2008	Mutant Chronicles (2008)	20%
	" Kiefer Sutherland's bad days in 24 are frolics in the park next to the nonsense he endures in this scandalously poor supernatural horror." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Oct 10, 2008	Mirrors (2008)	14%
	" Beautifully-drawn Japanimation about a time-hopping schoolgirl, by turns wondrous and a little too hyper." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Sep 19, 2008	The Girl Who Leapt Through Time (2008)	87%
	" It's a glum and amateurish business on the three-in-one subject of adoption - being adopted, having your child adopted, and adopting one." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Sep 19, 2008	Then She Found Me (2008)	51%
	" It's twisty, provocative and impressively grim, a sort of Asian-extreme Manhunter for the strong of nerve." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Sep 19, 2008	The Chaser (2008)	83%
	" Where most pictures about families end with huggy closure, this one ends in splinters, in pain, and with five different kinds of sudden, desperate hope." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Sep 19, 2008	Linha de passe ()	75%
	" As it bounds along with its pumping rock playlist, you start to realise that the movie is predictable and slightly scared, and that it doesn't really make sense." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Sep 19, 2008	The Wave (2008)	67%
5/5	" David Lynch has "cleaned up" his freaky feature debut, but don't worry - it's still an amazing industrial nightmare." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Sep 12, 2008	Eraserhead (1976)	90%
2/5	" Dull historical epic set during the Indian massacres of 1947." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Sep 12, 2008	Partition (2007)	40%
2/5	" It's a wisp of a film, touchingly earnest but light on point." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Sep 12, 2008	The Romance of Astrea and Celadon (2008)	65%
3/5	" The disinterring of corpses makes this film almost too ghoulish for its own good, but Iceland's top director Baltasar Korm�kur wraps it up in his distinctive frostbitten style." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Sep 12, 2008	Jar City (2008)	94%
2/5	" For all the brutality of the confrontation with knife-weilding, car-nicking local scum - think Stanley knives gouging out tongues - it's never far off ludicrous." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Sep 12, 2008	Eden Lake (2008)	82%
	" Moreover, the production lacks the personal touch that might allow this story to resonate as parable � it's too conventionally classy and Miramaxed, with its swooping, prestige-picture camerawork and lachrymose score by the dread James Horner." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Sep 12, 2008	The Boy in the Striped Pajamas (2008)	64%
	" Once English has wheeled on Carrie Fisher and � horror of horrors � Bette Midler in a wildly unnecessary cameo, all momentum and fun have emigrated to another planet." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Sep 12, 2008	The Women (2008)	13%
	" You can say this much for Guy Ritchie's RocknRolla: it isn't as bad as his last two films." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Sep 5, 2008	RocknRolla (2008)	58%
	" Three of Hong Kong cinema's top names take turns to direct this batty heist-gone-wrong thriller, which proceeds from stylish-but-incomprehensible (Tsui Hark) through crunchy and violent (Ringo Lam) to just barking (Johnnie To)." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Aug 29, 2008	Triangle (2007)	42%
	" As a simple exercise in tension and dread, this is a gripping hour at the multiplex - it's just a pity that it goes on for a further 20 minutes." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Aug 29, 2008	The Strangers (2008)	44%
	" Adam McKay's movie hits inspiration often enough to overcome its pedestrian plot, and the sight of Ferrell bawling like a baby somehow gets funnier each time." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Aug 29, 2008	Step Brothers (2008)	54%
	" Imagine a sort of Dog's Dinner Afternoon." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Aug 29, 2008	Daylight Robbery (2008)	20%
	" It's a promising idea that hits the skids." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Aug 29, 2008	Ben X (2008)	63%
	" An unmissable reissue for Terrence Malick's gorgeous and troubling debut." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Aug 29, 2008	Badlands (1973)	100%
	" Fairly terrible techno-punk action flick." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Aug 29, 2008	Babylon A.D. (2008)	7%
	" Choosing to clothe his whole movie in the outr� frocks of a bad Technicolor romance, Ozon serves up camp fun, but that's it." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Aug 29, 2008	Angel (2007)	47%
	" Steve Carell is reliably funny as an accident-prone special agent in Get Smart, but he's funny on his own here - without a good script or a zingy supporting cast to help him along." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Aug 22, 2008	Get Smart (2008)	53%
	" It's just a pity the story is so slipshod - it only really gets going halfway through." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Aug 8, 2008	Elite Squad (2008)	50%
	" Lucy Walker's documentary is genuinely stirring." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Aug 8, 2008	Blindsight (2008)	98%
	" It may look half-finished, but it's bright and silly and passes the time." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Aug 1, 2008	Space Chimps (2008)	35%
	" Her high-wire stage performance is unmissable all the same, particularly when she's taking aim at such untouchable sacred cows as Martin Luther King. "They only mention the good stuff! He was a litterbug."" -- Daily Telegraph Posted Aug 1, 2008	Sarah Silverman: Jesus is Magic (2005)	64%
	" The movie is determinedly low-key, but honest, with a wrenching break-up scene, sharp work from Clarkson, and a final thought that lingers, about never really knowing what your other half is thinking." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Aug 1, 2008	Married Life (2008)	58%
	" To describe this holistic-healing comedy as anything other than terrible would be gross dereliction of duty, but I'll make one concession: it's kind of meant to be." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Aug 1, 2008	The Love Guru (2008)	14%
	" Full of folksy humour but next to no urgency, it's a strangely exasperating slice of humdrum world cinema." -- Daily Telegraph Posted Aug 1, 2008	The Pope's Toilet (2007)	77%
