	" **A Secret takes the tired approach of a child viewing history through the quirks of his family, which worked only slightly better in last year�s Blame it On Fidel.*" -- New York Press* Posted Sep 3, 2008	Un Secret (2008)	72%
	" *Unfortunately, The Rocker, Wilson�s first lead role in a feature film, emphasizes the wrong quirks." -- New York Press* Posted Aug 20, 2008	The Rocker (2008)	39%
	" Step Brothers signals another era of American comedy: It�s the sort of thing that will assist future scholars in crafting histories of 21st-century stupidity." -- New York Press Posted Jul 30, 2008	Step Brothers (2008)	54%
	" X-Files: I Want to Believe is not a good movie, but its flaws are revealing. Carter�s intention of injecting topicality into the movie only testifies to his desperation." -- New York Press Posted Jul 30, 2008	The X-Files: I Want to Believe (2008)	32%

	" Forgetting Sarah Marshall crassly dissolves the gender balance in a vat of acidic testosterone." -- New York Press Posted Apr 16, 2008	Forgetting Sarah Marshall (2008)	85%
	" An unfunny and overlong sea romp." -- New York Press Posted Feb 6, 2008	Fool's Gold (2008)	10%

	" Too bad the movie is a less-than-satisfying experiment with contrived fake documentary aesthetics." -- New York Press Posted Jan 16, 2008	Cloverfield (2008)	77%
	" When it comes to scary movies, the Japanese have it figured out. Unfortunately, commercial filmmakers in the United States usually don�t." -- New York Press Posted Jan 9, 2008	One Missed Call (2008)	1%

	" IT IS FINE! allows an outsider�s plight to define the mood and give significance to the art. Yet it�s hard to take that endeavor seriously when the movie operates under the guise of exploitation." -- New York Press Posted Nov 21, 2007	It is Fine! EVERYTHING IS FINE (2007)	80%

	" Despite its temporal range, the biggest pratfall of the movie is its outdated aura. Newell gives us fabulous scenery and a classic narrative, but none of it becomes involving in the present." -- New York Press Posted Nov 14, 2007	Love in the Time of Cholera (2007)	28%
	" *For all its enticing dramatic hooks, Choking Man* has a fairly unrewarding conclusion.*" -- New York Press* Posted Nov 9, 2007	Choking Man (2007)	45%
	" Unable to sustain its one-note premise, the story foolishly revels in the mythology of Christmas to mask comedic vapidity. The trick doesn�t work." -- New York Press Posted Nov 9, 2007	Fred Claus (2007)	21%
2.5/5	" A victim of its own vitriol." -- Orlando Weekly Posted Nov 1, 2007	Delirious (2007)	85%
	" Run, Fat Boy, Run shows that Simon Pegg can't rescue a derivative dud." -- New York Press Posted Oct 24, 2007	Run, Fat Boy, Run (2008)	48%
	" *The biggest letdown in Wristcutters* is that it can�t compensate for its compact arrangement with the kind of absurdist aesthetics that its summary proposes.*" -- New York Press* Posted Oct 17, 2007	Wristcutters: A Love Story (2007)	64%
	" Wielding such unmotivated chaos, the plot demolishes its attempts at realism in a mess of yelling and gunfire." -- New York Press Posted Sep 26, 2007	The Kingdom (2007)	52%
	" The Hunting Party, a misguided espionage spoof directed by Richard Shepard, needlessly insists on the veracity of its plot� -- and that tactic leads to its undoing." -- New York Press Posted Sep 13, 2007	The Hunting Party (2007)	54%
	" It appears that the third eye went blind when the actors needed it." -- New York Press Posted Aug 22, 2007	Dedication (2007)	41%

	" Lacking a steady hand, this flimsy amalgam of bad jokes is without form and void." -- New York Press Posted Aug 1, 2007	The Ten (2007)	39%
	" No Reservations ties everything together with a neat little bow, demonstrating timidity about the ingredient it needs most of all: reality." -- New York Press Posted Jul 25, 2007	No Reservations (2007)	39%
	" Ultimately fails to match the competence of its director." -- New York Press Posted Jul 18, 2007	Goya's Ghosts (2007)	28%
	" Despite the smooth transition of the wondrous Potter mythology from Rowling�s pen to the screen -- thanks to the efforts of several talented filmmakers -- the gradually unfurling plot remains grounded in routine." -- New York Press Posted Jul 12, 2007	Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007)	77%
	" Although sincerely interested in exploring New York isolation, Nights relies too heavily on a stilted performance from singer Norah Jones and the cheesy romantic babbling of her off-kilter romantic interest (Jude Law)." -- New York Press Posted Jul 11, 2007	My Blueberry Nights (2008)	47%
	" *Sadly, the director�s proven creative finesse has given way to boring self-imitation. Hostel: Part II* gives us the same premise as the first film, changing genders and little else.*" -- New York Press* Posted Jul 11, 2007	Hostel: Part II (2007)	45%
	" A minor idea squandered by ham-fisted details." -- New York Press Posted Jul 11, 2007	1408 (2007)	78%
	" Evan Almighty strains consistently to pave the way for topical humor, yet lacks inspired comedic charm and a cogent message." -- New York Press Posted Jul 11, 2007	Evan Almighty (2007)	23%
