3/5	" With tenderness, [director Matt] Wolf convinces us that had Russell not died 16 years ago, he’d be one of the culture's most fascinating and intellectually rewarding musical creatures." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Nov 26, 2008	Wild Combination: A Portrait of Arthur Russell (2008)	n/a
4/5	" Few directors could have tackled the film's daunting visual requirements as brilliantly as David Fincher (Zodiac) has." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Nov 26, 2008	The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2008)	86%
4/5	" Packs considerable punch." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Nov 21, 2008	Revolutionary Road (2008)	100%
2/5	" What keeps this medium-grade formula picture from coming to a complete stop are the precious crumbs of genuinely funny comedic banter between well-paired stars Samuel Jackson and Bernie Mac." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Nov 7, 2008	Soul Men (2008)	44%
2/5	" The First Basket is a moderately interesting documentary about a moderately interesting subject." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Nov 4, 2008	First Basket (2008)	67%
2/5	" A drama so undercooked and overbaked that only fans of Harlequin romance novels could possibly clutch it to their heaving bosoms." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Oct 27, 2008	The Memsahib (2008)	n/a
2.5/5	" Had writer/director Seth Grossman's The Elephant King not been shot on location in the seedy bars and brothels of Thailand, it would be stripped of its most intriguing component." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Oct 17, 2008	The Elephant King (2008)	11%
2.5/5	" *While Hava probably gained a lot from the experience of making The Tree of Life, the audience will gain demonstrably less." -- Boxoffice Magazine* Posted Sep 15, 2008	The Tree of Life (2008)	43%
2.5/5	" A decent warm-up to a more robust documentary that'll never be made." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Sep 15, 2008	Alice Neel (2007)	69%
3/5	" The movie has an altogether haunting feel, capped by a final shot that’s a brilliant callback to an earlier line of dialogue. If you want to get home bad enough, you can always find a way." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Aug 11, 2008	Retrieval (2006)	100%
3.5/5	" As Diesen fades out with a pat, artificially full-circle ending, we still appreciate how Red danced on the edge of the Movie-of-the-Week abyss and, thanks to Cox and the careful tending of Jack Ketchum’s original novel, never fell in." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Aug 8, 2008	Red (2008)	68%
3.5/5	" Featuring an earthy performance of strength, intelligence and vulnerability by Ana Geislerova, Hrebejk’s film generates powerful interest and empathy, thanks to the plight of its central character." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Aug 1, 2008	Beauty in Trouble (2008)	78%
1/5	" As much as they champion the notion that any election chicanery is bad for both parties, this is strictly another propaganda-laced lashing out at corporations and the Republicans who use them to steal elections." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Aug 1, 2008	Stealing America: Vote By Vote (2008)	50%
3.5/5	" *A well mounted, character-cognizant combination of Hitchcock's Strangers on a Train* and Andrei Konchalovskys existentially tinged Runaway Train.*" -- Boxoffice Magazine* Posted Jul 24, 2008	Transsiberian (2008)	90%
	" Those disinclined to knock a director for giving fans exactly what they want will be quite satisfied, as will those who enjoyed the first film." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Jul 11, 2008	Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008)	88%
2/5	" A conventional exercise in documentary storytelling, not a rich and incisive assessment of youth and sports cultures." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Jun 27, 2008	Gunnin' for That #1 Spot (2008)	74%
3/5	" Has the makings of a slam-dunk documentary." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Jun 20, 2008	Poisoned by Polonium: The Litvinenko File (2008)	50%
2.5/5	" As the story of an exasperating, manipulative, lazy and entitled young man, it�s one for the books." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Jun 6, 2008	Operation Filmmaker (2008)	93%
2.5/5	" Carr-Wiggin doesn�t have the chops to pull off a romantic farce, but she�s so game for the attempt that we patiently wait for the movie to steer a steadier course." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted May 9, 2008	A Previous Engagement (2008)	32%
3/5	" A Walk into the Sea traps us in an odd and compelling purgatory, one that�s unable to answer the central question of what happened to Williams, yet still resolves with its own sense of satisfaction." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted May 7, 2008	A Walk Into the Sea: Danny Williams and the Warhol Factory (2007)	77%
2.5/5	" Not polished enough to spread, or strike a nerve, within the wider moviegoing community." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Apr 11, 2008	The Dhamma Brothers (2008)	82%
1/5	" Considering the talent assembled, the only audience draw here is the prospect of getting out of the rain." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Apr 11, 2008	Jack & Jill vs. the World (2008)	14%
2.5/5	" The first theatrical release from the here! Network�s Independent Film Initiative, shaves the edges off the genre�s hoariest tendencies, for which it deserves credit and will hopefully be the start of a trend. But it�s still an uninspiring drama." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Apr 4, 2008	Shelter (2008)	53%
2/5	" *It�s got the makings of a wicked little sex romp, but this dull, wordy comedy lacks visual punch and the laser-sharp satire that made the Waters-penned Heathers* a mini-classic.*" -- Boxoffice Magazine* Posted Apr 4, 2008	Sex and Death 101 (2008)	26%
	" Reverend Billy is a charismatic presence, even if his shtick is too silly and the documentary too unfocused to motivate any serious change in the nation�s holiday spending habits." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Apr 3, 2008	What Would Jesus Buy? (2007)	60%
2.5/5	" [Director] Penn has crucially miscalculated, mistakenly assuming we�d rather watch comedic actors play poker instead of watching them be funny." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Mar 21, 2008	The Grand ()	39%
	" *[Definitely, Maybe* has] a largess of characters and themes and a genuine desire to explore them, good intentions that earn the film a grudging pass.*" -- Boxoffice Magazine* Posted Feb 19, 2008	Definitely, Maybe (2008)	72%
	" While it would be unfair to say there aren�t moments of reasonable suspense, playing off our natural aversion to people being tortured does not constitute good filmmaking." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Feb 11, 2008	Untraceable (2008)	15%
	" Cloverfield is further evidence of the nerd ascendant: It may be a product of the 'Wouldn�t this be awesome?' school of filmmaking, but at least it results in an awesome film." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Jan 24, 2008	Cloverfield (2008)	77%
	" It represents an encouraging maturation of the anti-Iraq War documentary mini-genre. Here, anger is the result of unimpeachable research somberly reported, not the gadfly humor and smug sense of 'gotcha!' that marks the modern-day snarkumentary." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Jan 10, 2008	Taxi to the Dark Side (2008)	100%
	" The Great Debaters is passionate in a professional way, a very fine movie that should have challenged its audience as much as it challenged its characters." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Dec 26, 2007	The Great Debaters (2007)	79%
	" This wooden fable about the importance of believing in yourself is merely a collection of cutesy details that never coalesces into a strong narrative." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Nov 16, 2007	Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium (2007)	36%
	" If Vaughn is trying to test the family-film waters without abandoning his core audience, it doesn�t work here." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Nov 9, 2007	Fred Claus (2007)	21%
	" American Gangster has the virtue of being very good, certainly one of this year�s best..." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Nov 2, 2007	American Gangster (2007)	79%
2.5/5	" Feast of Love is bathed in the dark wood and lengthening shadows of a serious movie, but it ultimately can�t reconcile its humanism with its fatalism." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Sep 28, 2007	Feast of Love (2007)	41%
	" In the striking minimalism of the film�s early scenes, Haggis and Jones are perfectly in sync..." -- Los Angeles CityBeat Posted Sep 18, 2007	In the Valley of Elah (2007)	72%
3/5	" Great World of Sound makes its point quietly." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Sep 14, 2007	Great World of Sound (2007)	80%
3.5/5	" Thanks to Berinstein�s celebratory but lucid documentary, now have a better sense of what it takes to make it on Broadway." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Aug 30, 2007	ShowBusiness: The Road to Broadway (2007)	88%
3/5	" ...Ferguson�s take has the precision and seriousness of purpose of a sniper�s bullet while Moore�s is a homemade shrapnel grenade." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Aug 15, 2007	No End in Sight (2007)	94%
2.5/5	" He�s telling the story of a post-war Bosnia so ignored by the international community, war criminals are free to list their names in the phone book. You can�t make stuff like that up. But Shepard makes us think he did." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Jul 25, 2007	The Hunting Party (2007)	54%
3/5	" 1408 would have been much worse had it starred Jim Carrey, and The Number 23 would have been much better had it starred John Cusack." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Jun 22, 2007	1408 (2007)	78%
2.5/5	" The tragedy is, the last two films are exactly what we feared the first one would be: corporate entertainment, heavy yet frivolous, trying to buy our love with bloated spectacle." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted May 25, 2007	Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End (2007)	45%
3/5	" *Director Michael Corrente�s borough-specific details and Sopranos* writer Terence Winter�s well-drawn characters alchemize oft-used ingredients into a satisfying meal.*" -- Boxoffice Magazine* Posted May 18, 2007	Brooklyn Rules (2007)	47%
2/5	" Lucky You is drowsy and unsure of itself, bad news if you�re a poker player or a movie." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted May 4, 2007	Lucky You (2007)	29%
2/5	" Considering the setup features three attractive, lovelorn characters, Kasdan takes a fairly high road. But his script only feigns insight." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Apr 20, 2007	In the Land of Women (2007)	43%
2/5	" Considering the movie gets sillier as it goes along, relying on car stunts and gunplay to get to the ambiguous, unsatisfying finish line, it�s unclear why [director] Antal wanted Vacancy to be his American debut." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Apr 20, 2007	Vacancy (2007)	55%
2/5	" *As political statements go, Dreaming Lhasa* is gentle, well-meaning and produced 10 years too late and three drafts too soon.*" -- Boxoffice Magazine* Posted Apr 17, 2007	Dreaming Lhasa (2007)	41%
	" *Mike Binder, whose previous work (The Upside of Anger) suggested the possibility of great things, fully arrives with this delicately observed and emotionally expansive drama." -- Boxoffice Magazine* Posted Mar 23, 2007	Reign Over Me (2007)	64%
1.5/5	" An underwhelming confection so conceptually lazy it�s a miracle the film has enough strength to make it through the projector." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Feb 16, 2007	Music and Lyrics (2007)	63%
2.5/5	" The film�s ultimate failure is that it permanently taints our enjoyment of Hopkins� interpretation, borne of the unwanted knowledge that Lecter is just another victim of a bad childhood." -- Boxoffice Magazine Posted Feb 9, 2007	Hannibal Rising (2007)	15%
