"The timing is a bit off with this routine, even if there are a few solos that totally kick ass." -- Movie Retriever
Posted Aug 19, 2008
 
The Rocker (2008)38%
/
 
"Hope and faith, by their very nature, are issues that need to be handled with question marks. And yet, Henry Poole Is Here features nothing but ham-fisted periods." -- Movie Retriever
Posted Aug 16, 2008
 
Henry Poole Is Here (2008)38%

"One of the most enjoyable and best films of the year." -- Movie Retriever
Posted Aug 15, 2008
 
Vicky Cristina Barcelona (2008)80%
/
 
"With its consistently clever and always unpredictable screenplay, fascinating setting, and stellar lead performance, Transsiberian is riveting from beginning to end." -- Movie Retriever
Posted Aug 15, 2008
 
Transsiberian (2008)90%
/
 
"A franchise that once inspired the imagination of billions has fallen so far that it can't keep your attention for 98 minutes." -- Movie Retriever
Posted Aug 15, 2008
 
The Clone Wars (2008)17%
/
 
"Very few directors have been willing to take on a satire as dark and daring as Tropic Thunder. For those of us who were losing hope in Mr. Stiller, it's about time." -- Movie Retriever
Posted Aug 12, 2008
 
Tropic Thunder (2008)83%

"[Petit is] such an impassioned and energetic interview subject that it's remarkable that someone didn't make Man on Wire earlier." -- The Deadbolt
Posted Aug 8, 2008
 
Man on Wire (2008)100%

"Pineapple Express is one of the best comedies of the year, an original and creative mix of very dark humor, feel-good "best friends comedy," and stoner movie." -- Movie Retriever
Posted Aug 6, 2008
 
Pineapple Express (2008)68%
/
 
"Baghead is an original, confident piece of filmmaking that isn't easily categorized or even summarized." -- Movie Retriever
Posted Aug 1, 2008
 
Baghead (2008)81%
/
 
"I've read Choose Your Own Adventure novels with better narrative cohesion. And better dialogue, chemistry, and drama too." -- Movie Retriever
Posted Aug 1, 2008
 
The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor (2008)11%
/
 
"This politically driven writer wants to like any film where the basic message is "pay attention, people," but the critic in me can't give a movie with all the subtlety of a lead hammer a pass on thematic intentions alone." -- Movie Retriever
Posted Aug 1, 2008
 
Swing Vote (2008)40%
/
 
"Maybe purists who are already up in arms about the alterations will stop and realize that it's a testament to just how incredible Waugh's novel was that, even with so many cuts and alterations, so much quality remains." -- Movie Retriever
Posted Jul 25, 2008
 
Brideshead Revisited (2008)69%
/
 
"There's so much unpredictable comedy in Step Brothers, and humor is so much better when you can't see the jokes coming from a mile away." -- Movie Retriever
Posted Jul 25, 2008
 
Step Brothers (2008)50%
/
 
"Firmly places the nail in this franchise's coffin. I know what I don't want - a third X-Files film." -- Movie Retriever
Posted Jul 25, 2008
 
The X-Files: I Want to Believe (2008)33%
/
 
"Miscast, poorly shot, possibly choreographed by a spastic eight-year-old, Mamma Mia! is a mess, but it's kind of an impressive mess." -- Movie Retriever
Posted Jul 20, 2008
 
Mamma Mia! (2008)54%
/
 
"A masterpiece of good and evil with Oscar-worthy performances and technical accomplishments that has the potential to impact the genre more than any film since Christopher Reeve put on red tights." -- The Deadbolt
Posted Jul 17, 2008
 
The Dark Knight (2008)94%
/
 
"It's as if the filmmakers added the 3-D element because they knew the movie would be too boring to be released without it." -- Movie Retriever
Posted Jul 11, 2008
 
Journey to the Center of the Earth (2008)61%
/
 
"When Hellboy II: The Golden Army gets to its big, titular climax, it's difficult to care because you can sense that the director doesn't really care either. It's a mere obligation." -- Movie Retriever
Posted Jul 11, 2008
 
Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008)87%
/
 
"Mother of Tears feels like a copy, like someone "doing Argento", instead of the real deal that it could have been." -- The Deadbolt
Posted Jul 3, 2008
 
Mother of Tears (2008)49%
/
 
"Hancock is a film that starts off promisingly, but takes a left turn about halfway through and literally comes apart at the seams." -- The Deadbolt
Posted Jul 1, 2008
 
Hancock (2008)38%
/
 
"The kind of thrill ride that they used to make more often during the summer season - an over-the-top action movie made strictly for adults. Keep your superheroes. Give me more of these." -- Movie Retriever

Wanted (2008)73%

"Like its hero, the job may not be done with the most style and grace, but it definitely gets done." -- The Deadbolt

OSS 117: Cairo - Nest of Spies (2008)78%
/
 
"Amanda can never find a tone. It opens with a scene-reading (Taylor is a writer on a hacky TV show) that produces yawns, where our lead character is the only one that laughs. It's prophetic." -- The Deadbolt
Posted Jun 27, 2008
 
Finding Amanda (2008)38%

"Wall-E is not only the best movie of the year by galaxy-sized leaps and bounds, it's one of my favorite movies in a long, long time." -- The Deadbolt
Posted Jun 26, 2008
 
WALL-E (2008)97%

"There's nothing easy about Christopher Zalla's very good film, a story that will get under your skin in its depiction of the dark underbelly of the American dream." -- The Deadbolt
Posted Jun 20, 2008
 
Sangre de Mi Sangre (2008)83%

"Get Smart isn't funny. And the action scenes aren't thrilling enough to make up for the lack of laughter." -- The Deadbolt
Posted Jun 20, 2008
 
Get Smart (2008)53%
/
 
"The kind of complete mess that makes a critic question the other "lowest possible" ratings he's given, because those films, honestly, weren't nearly this bad." -- Movie Retriever
Posted Jun 20, 2008
 
The Love Guru (2008)14%

"Hulk is further proof that the superhero genre has entered its mediocre period." -- Movie Retriever

The Incredible Hulk (2008)67%

"I wanted Quid Pro Quo to develop into something at every turn, but it just never gels. It's a great 20-page short story that can't sustain 82 minutes of life on the big screen." -- The Deadbolt
Posted Jun 13, 2008
 
Quid Pro Quo (2008)66%
/
 
"Like the Iraq conflict itself, the exit strategy fails and the whole thing becomes a complete mess. And it wasn't that great an idea from the beginning." -- The Deadbolt

War, Inc. (2008)31%
/
 
"If you're anywhere near a city that's playing it in a theater, I couldn't be more direct - go see it. You will not regret it and not soon forget the best film so far this year." -- The Deadbolt
Posted Jun 12, 2008
 
The Edge of Heaven (2008)89%

"The fight choreography in Kung Fu Panda is the real draw. And, especially in IMAX, the film is never visually boring." -- The Deadbolt

"Clearly made with the best of intentions but never anything but boring." -- The Deadbolt

"A confident and clever character study about the commonality of dreams from the boardroom to the bag boy." -- Movie Retriever

"Zohan might have made a relatively entertaining series of regular sketches on SNL but can't sustain a nearly two-hour running time" -- Movie Retriever
Posted Jun 8, 2008
 
You Don't Mess with the Zohan (2008)34%
/
 
"All we're left with is a movie that reminds us how good its source material once was and serves as a warning to anyone considering bringing a series to the big screen." -- Movie Retriever

Sex and the City: The Movie (2008)51%

"With unbelievable and unsympathetic characters, all that's left in The Fall is the visuals." -- The Deadbolt

"The Strangers may not be perfect but it's easy to believe that Bertino's next few will be. It's that great a debut." -- The Deadbolt

"What's wrong with Postal can be summed up pretty easily - it's a comedy that's never once funny." -- The Deadbolt

"Spielberg and his team simply know how to do this kind of thing better than most of the filmmakers inspired by them who are trying to do it today." -- The Deadbolt

"Unless you have an incredibly low threshold for kid/chimp comedy, a sense of fun is what's missing in Speed Racer and that should have been the first ingredient." -- The Deadbolt

"Like a lot of those home movies we made as children, Son of Rambow has the best of intentions and a great set-up, but the ending falls apart." -- The Deadbolt
