2/5	" Throw in the inscrutable performances, the peculiar switch in tone and that head-scratcher of a title, and you�d be better off using the hour to tell someone about your childhood." Posted Nov 28, 2008	To Get To Heaven First You Have To Die (2006)	64%
2/5	" �Hang on lads, I�ve got a great idea�� said Michael Caine at the end of The Italian Job. Presumably he didn�t mean waiting 40 years before pulling off a caper that wouldn�t blow the bloody doors off a rabbit hutch." Posted Nov 28, 2008	Flawless (2007)	55%
1/5	" Executive produced by his father and proving that talent is not hereditary, this ill-advised bit of showing off from Jon�s Cuar�n is exactly what you get when artistic parents indulge their offspring." Posted Nov 28, 2008	A�o U�a (2008)	75%
1/5	" But as syrup and cynicism congeal into one painful clot, there is never any doubt that this is a major studio's crack at the Yuletide market." Posted Nov 28, 2008	Four Christmases (2008)	26%
4/5	" As calm and thoughtful a history lesson as ever needed to be taught, Waltz With Bashir is a moving picture in every sense." Posted Nov 21, 2008	Waltz with Bashir (2008)	93%
2/5	" Choke was never going to win any prizes for subtlety, but by toning down Palahniuk�s nastier absurdities in favour of obvious laughs, Gregg�s adaptation is no more provocative than the average Carry On film." Posted Nov 21, 2008	Choke (2008)	55%
3/5	" With high-class acts to match the hi-tech savvy of Scott and his trusty crew (cinematographer Alexander Witt, editor Pietro Scalia, composer Mark Streitenfeld), this is as taut and engrossing a couple of hours as you�ll experience all year." Posted Nov 21, 2008	Body of Lies (2008)	51%
3/5	" Like a plate of cinematic sushi, writer-director Yosuke Fujita�s debut is an off-the-menu mixture of crazy comedy and bland romance that won�t satisfy everyone. But it�s certainly worth a try." Posted Nov 14, 2008	Fine, Totally Fine (2008)	56%
2/5	" But, hackneyed, unconvincing and ultimately preposterous, Pride and Glory should be made to hand in its badge." Posted Nov 7, 2008	Pride and Glory (2008)	34%
4/5	" Easy on both eye and ear, this jaunty little number has many virtues to commend it." Posted Nov 7, 2008	Easy Virtue (2009)	58%
3/5	" Take away the Fab Four and the monstrous Metropolitan Cathedral and this could be a post-war chronicle of any northern conurbation; an hour-plus Hovis ad with more broken windows." Posted Oct 30, 2008	Of Time and the City (2008)	83%
3/5	" Don�t bother looking for wires and safety nets because there aren�t any. As the end credits show in wince-making detail, all the performers genuinely suffer for their art." Posted Oct 24, 2008	Chocolate (2008)	71%
3/5	" Colourful, fizzy and destined to keep the karaoke busy for a few months, the ten musical e-numbers pop between the eyes like wads of overblown bubblegum. Would that they stick in the memory in the same way�" Posted Oct 24, 2008	High School Musical 3: Senior Year (2008)	67%
3/5	" Essentially covering the same playlist as Jack Black�s School of Rock, The Rocker is a good-natured, live-the-dream lark in which the one-liners score hits but the slapstick continually misses." Posted Oct 17, 2008	The Rocker (2008)	39%
3/5	" Igor is a bit of a Franken-toon itself, stitching grown-up gags to a Disneyfied storyline (beauty is on the inside; don�t step on others to get ahead; yada yada yada) while lurching wildly from one age group to the other." Posted Oct 17, 2008	Igor (2008)	32%
3/5	" Burn After Reading is a clown-mobile; a comical death-trap constructed from lots of disposable parts." Posted Oct 17, 2008	Burn After Reading (2008)	79%
2/5	" But while the gravity-defying creations, tonsorial trickery and intricate braidwork impress, the film is remarkably drab." Posted Oct 17, 2008	Afro Saxons (2008)	56%
2/5	" Without Anna Faris - undoubtedly the best thing in Scary Movies - this would be just another superficial wheeze about the perils of superficiality." Posted Oct 10, 2008	The House Bunny (2008)	40%
2/5	" Beastie Boy Adam Yauch�s basketball diary is of limited general appeal." Posted Oct 10, 2008	Gunnin' for That #1 Spot (2008)	74%
2/5	" Middling family fare, Ember too often smoulders when it needs to fire." Posted Oct 10, 2008	City of Ember (2008)	49%
3/5	" Veracity and mordant humour are all well and good, but Seidl treads a very fine line between making jokes about being sick and making sick jokes." Posted Oct 3, 2008	Import/Export (2007)	78%
2/5	" With dialogue as convincing as power-sharing talks in Zimbabwe, characters so two-dimensional they�d be drummed out of a comic strip, and a hero who makes Jack Bauer look like a dithering idiot, Taken is hands down the unintentional comedy of the year." Posted Sep 26, 2008	Taken (2009)	50%
2/5	" David Mamet sets him on the path to righteousness in a collection of contrivances masquerading as a meaningful plot." Posted Sep 26, 2008	Redbelt (2008)	69%
4/5	" Pleasingly, there are no cosy resolutions here; it�s up to the viewer to decide each character�s fate. Want a happy ending? Work for it." Posted Sep 19, 2008	Linha de passe ()	75%
3/5	" Bleak surroundings and grim humour create a suitably sombre mood, but in the wake of juicy police procedurals like Dennis Lehane adaptations Mystic River and Gone Baby Gone, this is disappointingly straightforward stuff." Posted Sep 12, 2008	Jar City (2008)	94%
2/5	" Dispiriting and unpleasant, a trip to Eden Lake will leave most viewers feeling the need for a hot shower and a tetanus jab." Posted Sep 12, 2008	Eden Lake (2008)	82%
2/5	" From ballrooms to bedrooms, we�ve seen it all before. And while familiarity doesn�t necessarily breed contempt, it does have a habit of nudging the snooze button." Posted Sep 5, 2008	The Duchess (2008)	61%
1/5	" Ludicrous? Occasionally. Ponderous? Frequently. But dangerous? Only for the careers of Cage and his stylist." Posted Sep 5, 2008	Bangkok Dangerous (2008)	9%
3/5	" Yet as Ferrell and Reilly babble, yell, and clobber themselves silly in the (fruitless) pursuit of laughs over 97 excruciating minutes, anyone who manages to complete this moronic marathon with them deserves a medal." Posted Aug 29, 2008	Step Brothers (2008)	54%
1/5	" He does, however, leave the door open for a sequel. But who'd want to clone a runt?" Posted Aug 29, 2008	Babylon A.D. (2008)	7%
4/5	" Meadows is adamant that there was no corporate influence. But even without the benefit of the doubt, it can�t be denied that his extended short carries some sweet observations." Posted Aug 22, 2008	Somers Town (2008)	88%
3/5	" Yet while it�s as novel as a second-hand ejector seat and hits the groin more often than the funnybone, Get Smart still registers enough clicks on the giggle counter to make its mission passable." Posted Aug 22, 2008	Get Smart (2008)	53%
2/5	" Arty-farty, cheap and dreary, Edo Bertoglio�s post-mortem of New York�s Seventies creative in-crowd is exactly the sort of self-absorbed guff that makes people glad to be square." Posted Aug 22, 2008	Face Addict (2008)	30%
2/5	" Unless you�re fourteen and female, look away now. There�s absolutely nothing for you here." Posted Aug 15, 2008	Wild Child (2009)	32%
	" Though every shot is painstakingly framed and perfectly lit, the film fails at the human level. These people remain strangers throughout. There is nothing wrong with the performances but it�s difficult to create empathy without intimacy." Posted Aug 15, 2008	The Banishment (2007)	56%
0/5	" This awesomely unambitious film has all the depth of a Pepsi ad." Posted Aug 8, 2008	Make It Happen (2008)	20%
3/5	" Perhaps a shade too long to hold the youngest viewers in permanent thrall, this is a family film in the truest sense - only the grouchiest bear won�t find something to like." Posted Aug 8, 2008	The Fox & the Child (2008)	47%
	" In terms of originality, this Mummy is dead on its feet. And no matter what their nationality, everyone struggles with the generally awful dialogue." Posted Aug 8, 2008	The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor (2008)	14%
	" Save the effort by asking the neighbours if you can come round for ten minutes every night for a week. A wet week. Before pay day." Posted Apr 18, 2008	Private Property (2006)	70%
	" You can almost see the writers (Ellroy, Kurt Wimmer � creator of sci-fi mish-mash Ultraviolet � and first-timer Jamie Moss) charging at one another with false antlers in a challenge to come up with the toughest soundbite." Posted Apr 18, 2008	Street Kings (2008)	36%
	" A morality tale with a distictly Coen-ish air, making excellent, occasionally surreal, use of a great location and lacing the comedy with bloody unpleasantness. It even has a quirky score by Coen collaborator Carter Burwell." Posted Apr 18, 2008	In Bruges (2008)	81%
	" With a fondness for reflective surfaces and long takes, Hou picks up an everyday situation, observes it from various angles, gives it a gentle shake, then puts it down again, seemingly without comment." Posted Mar 14, 2008	The Flight of the Red Balloon (2008)	78%
3/5	" With all the meaty goodness of Neil Marshall�s Dog Soldiers, The Cottage offers solid Brit-horror nourishment." Posted Mar 14, 2008	The Cottage (2008)	71%
1/5	" *With too much talk, not enough adventure and a laughable disregard for geography and anthropology, 10,000 BC* is less Jurassic Park than Pleistocene parp.*" Posted Mar 14, 2008*	10,000 B.C. (2008)	9%
	" As daft as it all becomes, Vantage Point is never dull. Approach it like a double-bill of 24 and there�s enough excitement to overcome the clich�s, particularly during the climactic car chase." Posted Mar 7, 2008	Vantage Point (2008)	36%
3/5	" Worthy of thine attention? Corset is." Posted Mar 7, 2008	The Other Boleyn Girl (2008)	41%
	" According to the Ferrell method, the art of comedy characterisation is to put on a straight face (daft hairstyle optional), bellow the first thing that comes to mind (rude words optional), race around like a child on a sugar rush� and repeat." Posted Feb 28, 2008	Semi-Pro (2008)	21%
	" Those expecting fresh Squid will be disappointed. With few laughs and much whining, Margot takes the fun out of dysfunctional. It�s a damp squib with lots of wail." Posted Feb 28, 2008	Margot at the Wedding (2007)	51%
4/5	" A sombre condemnation of US foreign policy, wrapped in an absorbing whodunit." Posted Jan 24, 2008	In the Valley of Elah (2007)	72%
3/5	" Burton�s best film since Ed Wood will come in handy for anyone in need of something for the weekend." Posted Jan 24, 2008	Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (2007)	86%
