	" �How come we never heard of him?� you cry. Deep mystery. But it develops an unexpected power in the final reels, when skeletons fairly rattle out of cupboards." -- Financial Times Posted Nov 21, 2008	'Tis Autumn - The Search for Jackie Paris (2007)	86%
	" The whole movie is dying, actually. But it puts on a brave face and gratefully receives visitors." -- Financial Times Posted Nov 21, 2008	Choke (2008)	55%
	" Belle Toujours is a teasing charmer from a Portuguese centenarian." -- Financial Times Posted Nov 21, 2008	Belle Toujours (2006)	64%
	" Visually the film is so undistinguished it may be time for the maker of Blade Runner to be subjected to that film�s Voigt-Kampff test, to determine whether the current owner of the name �Ridley Scott� is real or a replicant." -- Financial Times Posted Nov 21, 2008	Body of Lies (2008)	50%
	" An investigative war documentary done as an animated feature is a pioneering concept, powerfully realised." -- Financial Times Posted Nov 21, 2008	Waltz with Bashir (2008)	93%
	" Rhubarbed melodrama." -- Financial Times Posted Nov 21, 2008	Blindness (2008)	42%
	" I won�t spoil the twist by revealing it, though you may not want to spoil the film by sitting through it. My suggestion, not wholly frivolous: see the first hour, then go to the pub." -- Financial Times Posted Nov 14, 2008	Zack and Miri Make a Porno (2008)	64%
	" Mark Wahlberg glooms about the land in the latest computer-game makeover, a noir action thriller of such scowling, benighted violence that it could send manic depressives over the edge and make newcomers to that condition of us all." -- Financial Times Posted Nov 14, 2008	Max Payne (2008)	18%
	" Chastening, compelling." -- Financial Times Posted Nov 14, 2008	I.O.U.S.A. (2008)	92%
	" Modest, quirky, well acted by an unknown cast." -- Financial Times Posted Nov 14, 2008	Choking Man (2007)	45%
	" The Baader Meinhof Complex is the latest autopsy on an important and under-dramatised segment of European history. Those who do not learn from it risk being among those who might repeat it." -- Financial Times Posted Nov 14, 2008	The Baader-Meinhof Complex (2008)	81%
	" Lest the spectacle alone fail to conquer, a truth-based plot is wheeled into place and historical actualities are hurled over the walls of audience resistance, as if to say: �This rise and fall of a rebel leader�" -- Financial Times Posted Nov 7, 2008	Tau Ming Chong (2008)	57%
	" What did No�l Coward do to deserve Stephan Elliott�s cackhanded film of his play Easy Virtue?" -- Financial Times Posted Nov 7, 2008	Easy Virtue (2009)	58%
	" Pride and Glory is NYPD cop hokum, overcooked and undercharacterised. The time is out of joint, but in films such as this another joint is always to hand: ham." -- Financial Times Posted Nov 7, 2008	Pride and Glory (2008)	34%
	" Nothing quite new enough, or strong enough, to turn a mild arthouse pleaser into a must-see." -- Financial Times Posted Nov 7, 2008	Let's Talk About The Rain (2008)	77%
	" Oliver Stone�s W � his best film since Nixon and proof that love-hate portraiture inspires him to a higher artistry than liberal polemicising." -- Financial Times Posted Nov 7, 2008	W. (2008)	58%
	" McQueen understands the first principle of cinema. On either side of its middle section, where the very wordiness stands ironic witness to the ultimate impossibility to explain, Hunger has the power and hieratic integrity of silent cinema." -- Posted Oct 30, 2008	Hunger (2008)	94%
	" Perhaps this is a tactically ruthless and designedly impersonal Bond movie, a clever tease getting us ready for the returning solvents � next time round � of charm, humour and eccentricity." -- Financial Times Posted Oct 30, 2008	Quantum of Solace (2008)	66%
	" It all works. It all stirs, provokes and bewitches. This is a film of love, passion and indignation, full of startling beauties." -- Financial Times Posted Oct 30, 2008	Of Time and the City (2008)	83%
	" A Mexican thriller-with- a-message, brings the message and forgets the thrills." -- Financial Times Posted Oct 17, 2008	La Zona (2007)	78%
	" More well-aimed wit was needed, less grapeshot wackiness." -- Financial Times Posted Oct 17, 2008	Igor (2008)	32%
	" The film is untidy, cheery, sometimes amiable. If only it were funny too." -- Financial Times Posted Oct 17, 2008	The Rocker (2008)	39%
	" A worse film might be dismissed as sobsploitation. But Stephen Walker�s documentary � a labour of love inspired by Walker�s first sight of the group in a London West End show � touches the mind as well as the heart." -- Financial Times Posted Oct 17, 2008	Young@Heart (2008)	88%
	" But wait. Didn�t screwball farce go out 70 years ago? Around the time of Harry Cohn? Aren�t we watching necromancy in action? Yes, yes and yes." -- Financial Times Posted Oct 17, 2008	Burn After Reading (2008)	79%
	" When the ridiculous and the sublime come within kissing distance like this, you know that, script or no script, Hollywood has found a way to have a wonderful time." -- Financial Times Posted Oct 10, 2008	Mutant Chronicles (2008)	20%
	" Some credit for this stylish screamer goes to Sutherland, forming his doughy-handsome features into an emotional punchbag. More credit goes to Nemec, sowing a harvest of dark invention in the vast spaces." -- Financial Times Posted Oct 10, 2008	Mirrors (2008)	14%
	" The remorseless, glamourless scenes � their businesslike realism, their shrugging fatalism, their workaday brutality � come closer than most films to identifying and depicting the �banality of evil�." -- Financial Times Posted Oct 10, 2008	Gomorrah (2009)	95%
	" The style is monochrome and minimalist: dots and dashes, sudden shadows and scary silhouettes, like a morse code of the unconscious." -- Financial Times Posted Oct 3, 2008	Fear(s) of the Dark (2008)	73%
	" They should have called it Carry on Columnist and incorporated digitised cameos from the late Sid James and Kenneth Williams. Come to think of it, that might have made it funny." -- Financial Times Posted Oct 3, 2008	How to Lose Friends & Alienate People (2008)	38%
	" The Austrian miserablist who gave us Dog Days � sharper and more mischievous in its portrait of exurbia�s human excreta � delivers an essay in symmetrical despondence that seems both tidy and empty, like a trash can after street-cleaning." -- Financial Times Posted Oct 3, 2008	Import/Export (2007)	78%
	" In spite of a title, and much dialogue, likely to send Aunt Edna into convulsions, Good Dick is the week�s best film." -- Financial Times Posted Oct 3, 2008	Good Dick (2008)	47%
	" Lovely if you have the time. But if you have the time you may, I feel, be living in the wrong time." -- Financial Times Posted Oct 3, 2008	Brideshead Revisited (2008)	64%
	" Hayseed nonsense, folksily scripted. Whenever it becomes too much � or too little � close your eyes and think of Frank Capra." -- Financial Times Posted Sep 26, 2008	Swing Vote (2008)	36%
	" The Mamet rhythms are pleasingly in place: the repetition-rich dialogue, the head-butting close-ups as men go ego to ego." -- Financial Times Posted Sep 26, 2008	Redbelt (2008)	69%
	" Taken is batty but briskly paced." -- Financial Times Posted Sep 26, 2008	Taken (2009)	50%
	" The movie goes nowhere and takes 100 minutes to do so. It should have cut its losses, gone for comedy and called itself Grumpy Old Cops." -- Financial Times Posted Sep 26, 2008	Righteous Kill (2008)	22%
	" As a mood-piece the film sits on a pedestal, rather, waiting to be admired." -- Financial Times Posted Sep 26, 2008	I've Loved You So Long (2008)	91%
	" The eerie haze of the visuals, the half-babble of music and the toneless, teasing dialogue dance attendance on the strangest ghost of all: Galina Vishnevskaya." -- Financial Times Posted Sep 26, 2008	Alexandra (2008)	94%
	" Scratchy? But why not? Scratchy sounds human. In Unrelated we almost hear the charcoal on the paper as the group portrait takes shape, filled with unknown actors helping to cross-hatch their own characters." -- Financial Times Posted Sep 19, 2008	Unrelated (2008)	85%
	" The Hollywood comedy Tropic Thunder comes at us like a mad army cresting a hill, intent on audience massacre. My advice: shoot first and don�t wait for the whites of their eyes." -- Financial Times Posted Sep 19, 2008	Tropic Thunder (2008)	83%
	" Hunt�s lovely voice, pitched in that diurnal-dizzy limbo between mezzo and soprano, is perfect for mid-life crisis. So is her gawky, strung-out, tragicomical body language." -- Financial Times Posted Sep 19, 2008	Then She Found Me (2008)	51%
	" The curse of modern Brazilian cinema, it increasingly seems, is that every film reminds us of City of God while none measures up to it." -- Financial Times Posted Sep 19, 2008	Linha de passe ()	75%
	" The Women has a cast to die for � Meg Ryan, Annette Bening, Candice Bergen, Carrie Fisher � in a film that dies before our eyes." -- Financial Times Posted Sep 12, 2008	The Women (2008)	13%
	" A transcendentally batty essay in am-dram costume cinema, starchy with recitative, fragrant with period fabric conditioner and white with laundered emotionalism." -- Financial Times Posted Sep 12, 2008	The Romance of Astrea and Celadon (2008)	64%
	" The theoretically fail-safe team of the writer/actor Seth Rogen and co-writer/ producer Judd Apatow � the Knocked Up duo � deliver a funnybone- clobbering spree with more energy than wit." -- Financial Times Posted Sep 12, 2008	Pineapple Express (2008)	68%
	" The film is breathless, big-canvased and scored for big emotions: a pavilion of the heart and senses threatened only when characters open a flap to let in anachronistic dialogue or the giveaways of cross-culture casting." -- Financial Times Posted Sep 12, 2008	Partition (2007)	40%
No Rating	" A murder story in the grungy-misanthropic style of Korm�kur�s 101 Reykjavik, but without the plaintive wit or probing compassion." -- Financial Times Posted Sep 12, 2008	Jar City (2008)	94%
	" Eden Lake: pursuit, persecution, violent death." -- Financial Times Posted Sep 12, 2008	Eden Lake (2008)	82%
	" The film�s flimsy fabric of historical reimagining � a death camp with no watchtower and an out-of-sight corner for illicit pow-wows and tunnel-digging � makes the notionally harrowing ending seem a smash-and-grab raid on our susceptibilities." -- Financial Times Posted Sep 12, 2008	The Boy in the Striped Pajamas (2008)	64%
	" It is magnificent eye candy. Forget the plot (which you will be hard-pressed to understand) and store in your memory for later use the dialogue�s Zen Buddhist proverbs." -- Financial Times Posted Sep 12, 2008	Ashes of Time Redux (2008)	81%
