Rating	T-Meter	Title \| Year	Add Date (default)

Fresh 3/5	Rotten 44%	The Box (2009)	" Richard Kelly returns with a tense, unnerving and jumpy thriller. It loses focus towards the end, but Donnie Darko has just entered The Twilight Zone." Posted Dec 4, 2009
Fresh 3/5	Rotten 50%	Jetsam (2008)	" Jetsam’s saddled with a score that’s as subtle as a pneumatic drill at 6am on a Sunday morning, but there’s enough here to ensure Welsford should get noticed." Posted Aug 29, 2009
Fresh 4/5	Fresh 66%	Public Enemies (2009)	" This superstar crime thriller emerges as something surprising, fascinating and technically dazzling. Don’t expect a Hollywood movie. Expect a Michael Mann movie." Posted Jul 3, 2009
Fresh 3/5	Fresh 86%	Fifty Dead Men Walking (2009)	" A well-meaning and inadvertently timely attempt to tackle the Troubles, whose thriller-toned accessibility occasionally trips over cine-clichés. Meanwhile, a confident, complex Sturgess makes his strongest impression yet." Posted Apr 9, 2009
Rotten 2/5	Rotten 24%	The Life Before Her Eyes (2008)	" Part Elephant, part Jacob’s Ladder, moments of bruising power are dulled by overwrought symbolism and a baffling wrap-up." Posted Mar 27, 2009
Fresh 3/5	Fresh 73%	The Young Victoria (2009)	" Rose-tinted it may be, but this portrait of Britain’s longest-serving monarch never drags. Blunt and Friend secure your sympathy as the mutually adoring V&A, while Vallée sleekly braids the personal with the parliamentary." Posted Mar 6, 2009
Fresh 4/5	Fresh 87%	Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008)	" A baby-step backwards after Pan’s Labyrinth, but a rung up from the original Hellboy: more laid-back, even more out-there. Ignore the shaky plot and gorge on the grand design as del Toro lets his imagination – and some classic creatures – off the leash." Posted Aug 22, 2008
Fresh 3/5	Rotten 52%	Leatherheads (2008)	" Is it a romantic comedy? A sporting history lesson? A homage to Howard Hawks? It’s all three. Not the touchdown we expected after Good Night, And Good Luck, but still enough style, sophistication and movie-love to save Clooney from a kicking." Posted Apr 11, 2008
Fresh 3/5	Rotten 38%	August Rush (2007)	" Packing every cliché, coincidence and contrivance known to man (well, Hollywood screenwriters) into one glossy, saccharine, syrupy package takes some doing; but Highmore’s open-faced charm makes Evan’s sappy story tolerable." Posted Nov 23, 2007
Rotten 2/5	Fresh 80%	Taxidermia (2009)	" Curiosity seekers won’t be disappointed… just sickened." Posted Jul 13, 2007
