2/5	" Entertaining dross, but could be another seven year�s bad luck for Keifer�s big screen career." Posted Oct 10, 2008	Mirrors (2008)	13%
4/5	" Blame TV�s magisterial The Wire if Gomorrah seems superficial. But whereas TV has multiple episodes to penetrate the heart of its story, Matteo and co are to be commended for this all-encompassing overview of organised crime." Posted Oct 10, 2008	Gomorrah (2009)	100%
4/5	" Contender for best documentary of the year, Heavy Load contains a classic moment of Spinal Tap-ism as Paul, when Heavy Load is at its lowest ebb, ponders why Michael says he hates him." Posted Oct 3, 2008	Heavy Load (2008)	100%
3/5	" This artiness is everywhere, the movie too busy courting �visually stunning� poster quotes to actually get down to the business of being scary." Posted Oct 3, 2008	Fear(s) of the Dark (2008)	87%
4/5	" But The Fall defies low expectations, proving the director can now partner his exquisite pictures with a ripping yarn." Posted Oct 3, 2008	The Fall (2008)	58%
2/5	" Catch this on an IMAX screen if you're interested, but for a great movie about mountain-based triumphs of the human spirit check out the inspirational Blindsight instead." Posted Sep 26, 2008	Steep (2007)	51%
4/5	" This is Scott Thomas� film, and she commands it with a quiet performance (literally), conveying a range of conflicted emotions through her expressive eyes and gaunt, ashen features." Posted Sep 26, 2008	I've Loved You So Long (2008)	88%
3/5	" With face carbon-frozen in rage and mid-Atlantic scowl in place, the Brit export is fast proving himself the most reliably fun actor on the scene, standing a good chance of becoming this generation�s Charles Bronson if he keeps making movies like this." Posted Sep 26, 2008	Death Race (2008)	43%
2/5	" Undemanding fans of softcore nudity and hardcore gore will chew it down, but real horror afficionados will crave more meat on the bone." Posted Sep 19, 2008	Zombie Strippers (2008)	41%
3/5	" Only seventeen Lord of the Rings-esque endings spoil the fun, but this sweet take on teen-angst romance quietly impresses." Posted Sep 19, 2008	The Girl Who Leapt Through Time (2008)	87%
3/5	" A good example of a film grabbing the audience by the collar, only for the audience to shake themselves free, The Chaser is a promising fusion of detective thrills, sweaty-palmed horror, and black comedy that ultimately does not hang together." Posted Sep 19, 2008	The Chaser (2008)	83%
3/5	" The director's usual traits are present and correct � glacial pacing, silent film-like direction, a love of nature � meaning audiences' eyes will soon Rohmer about the room looking for an exit." Posted Sep 12, 2008	Romance of Astree and Celadon (2008)	63%
	" Watching the disintegration of Baghdad alongside the band members� aspirations makes this an enlightening and impassioned account of the Middle Eastern crisis." Posted Sep 12, 2008	Heavy Metal In Baghdad (2008)	81%
4/5	" Despite the boom in Asian cinema since its first release Ashes of Time Redux is quite simply one of the best films of the year." Posted Sep 12, 2008	Ashes of Time Redux (2008)	91%
3/5	" The Wackness offers more than fuzzy giggles and bongwater-weak characters." Posted Aug 29, 2008	The Wackness (2008)	67%
3/5	" But there is an inescapable air of disappointment that three brilliant directors have handed in a movie that barely scratches the potential of the experiment." Posted Aug 29, 2008	Triangle (2007)	36%
4/5	" Difficult, frustrating, but engrossing and ultimately enriching, make time to see it." Posted Aug 29, 2008	Times and Winds (2008)	85%
3/5	" Delayed by over a year, but don�t let that fool you: this may be lightweight, but it knows what goes bump in the night." Posted Aug 29, 2008	The Strangers (2008)	43%
	" Flawed, but a forceful debut from a promising director." Posted Aug 29, 2008	Ben X (2008)	65%
2/5	" This is a frontrunner for worst film of the year, but a healthy $45m in the US means a sequel is likely � proof that education standards are indeed slipping." Posted Aug 22, 2008	College Road Trip (2008)	13%
3/5	" Star Wars: The Clone Wars may be a glorified pilot for the upcoming TV series, but as Episode 2.5 it brings back a certain amount of balance to the Force." Posted Aug 15, 2008	The Clone Wars (2008)	19%
	" An enjoyable debut for two disgustingly talented sisters, on the basis of this Meneka and Sheenu Das deserve a long future as that rarest of beasts � a female filmmaking duo." Posted Aug 15, 2008	Little Box of Sweets (2006)	50%
4/5	" Carter is more energetic than Demme�s film that fires on all cylinders only when Carter calmly but persuasively faces down his critics or recounts his time as the most powerful man on Earth." Posted Aug 15, 2008	Jimmy Carter Man From Plains (2007)	78%
2/5	" This is better than the dull Edward Norton vehicle The Illusionist, all involved should have conjured up a companion piece to Christopher Nolan�s The Prestige. " Posted Aug 8, 2008	Death Defying Acts (2008)	46%
4/5	" Lucy Walker�s inspirational, award-winning documentary, which leaves condescension and treacle out in the cold, emerging as one of the year�s most illuminating, heartbreaking, and life-affirming movies." Posted Aug 8, 2008	Blindsight (2008)	98%
2/5	" The animation will dazzle undemanding tots, but the writers must have been paid peanuts for a script that flings around hit and (mostly) miss gags, ranging from fart funnies to Freudianism (!), like so much monkey mess." Posted Aug 1, 2008	Space Chimps (2008)	35%
2/5	" Married Life may fall short of the best Hollywood melodrama, but its nicely observed situations and old-fashioned storytelling ironically lend this a freshness more on-the-nose infidelity tales are missing." Posted Aug 1, 2008	Married Life (2008)	58%
3/5	" Worth spending a penny on, but not much more." Posted Aug 1, 2008	The Pope's Toilet (2007)	77%
5/5	" The first five-star blockbuster of the year has arrived, and in style." Posted Jul 25, 2008	The Dark Knight (2008)	95%
	" Dull and dreary despite DeVison�s enthusiasm, take heart in remembering the chances of catching Captain Eager on a big screen are nil." Posted Apr 18, 2008	Captain Eager and the Mark of Voth (2008)	11%
	" Aptly-titled." Posted Apr 18, 2008	Botched (2007)	14%
	" When the record stops spinning Flashbacks Of A Fool doesn�t amount to much more than �learn from past mistakes and don�t take your life for granted�, but it�s strikingly shot, perfectly played, and rather well scored." Posted Apr 18, 2008	Flashbacks of a Fool (2008)	45%
	" Happy-Go-Lucky might have sit-com spin-off potential, but like one of Poppy's driving lessons, it lurches around, grinding gears, and ends up back where it started. " Posted Apr 18, 2008	Happy-Go-Lucky (2008)	97%
2/5	" To inject drama, the anaemic plot contorts to spin danger out of Finn�s debt to an island owning gangsta rapper (Kevin Hart), and his rivalry with his mentor." Posted Apr 18, 2008	Fool's Gold (2008)	11%
	" Equivalent to attending a massive feast only to discover the main course is missing, The Banquet is frequently stunning, beautifully shot, but ultimately undernourishing. " Posted Apr 11, 2008	Legend Of The Black Scorpion (2006)	n/a
	" Visually, the film is an uninteresting as the similarly dour Don�t Touch the Axe, and now Breillat�s health is failing it may be time she hung-up her viewfinder." Posted Apr 11, 2008	The Last Mistress (2008)	76%
	" Beaufort is reflective, quietly powerful, and thought provoking - a sobering postscript to the movie is that one month after filming finished, the 33 day �Second Lebanon War� broke out." Posted Mar 28, 2008	Beaufort (2008)	87%
	" The meaning of life just might be hidden here� only don�t expect to find it on a first viewing." Posted Mar 28, 2008	You, The Living (2007)	100%
	" One day aliens will land on Earth offering us answers to the secrets of the Universe. But, because of films like The Hottie & the Nottie they will deem us unworthy and return to the Heavens once more in their carbon-free interstellar cruisers." Posted Mar 28, 2008	The Hottie & the Nottie (2008)	5%
	" The Book of Revelation is interesting enough to hope Kokkinos follows it with something equally daring." Posted Mar 28, 2008	The Book of Revelation (2006)	82%
	" Eight years before another Harmony Korine film is not a bad prospect." Posted Mar 14, 2008	Mister Lonely (2008)	44%
	" Short, sweet and modest, like Floriane's aquatic sport Water Lilies is pretty and dainty to the eye, but there is a raging torrent of activity beneath the surface." Posted Mar 14, 2008	Water Lilies (2007)	79%
	" While no masterpiece, Children of Glory never has a dull moment. The seemingly CGI-free streetfighting, with revolutionaries facing deadly Soviet tanks, packs an explosive punch (courtesy of action and stunt legend Vic Armstong)." Posted Mar 14, 2008	Szabads�g, Szerelem (2006)	90%
	" In no way an easy watch, but as a meticulous record of a tragedy and the feats of bravery it inspired, this is an excellent movie." Posted Mar 14, 2008	Out of the Blue (2007)	91%
	" Fade to Black is as sleek and attractive as the chrome polished vintage cars Huston travels in, but never truly gets in gear." Posted Mar 7, 2008	Fade to Black (2006)	29%
3/5	" An enthusiastic cast are partially up to the challenge, but some of the thesping belongs on a Straight-to-Video shelf." Posted Mar 7, 2008	George A. Romero's Diary of the Dead (2008)	60%
4/5	" Ultimately, U2 3D will infuriate as many as it dazzles � attendance depends on how much Bono-me you can stomach or how grabbed you are by 3D cinema." Posted Feb 22, 2008	U2 3D (2008)	92%
3/5	" Recommended for audiences who thought Kevin Bacon�s Death Sentence was too restrained; everyone else steer clear. " Posted Feb 22, 2008	The Killing Gene (2008)	71%
4/5	" Wise beyond his years, Morace�s Tommi is a knockout performance of resilience and acceptance of his parents� foibles and by the final scene of this assured debut feature there is unlikely to be a dry eye in the house." Posted Jan 24, 2008	Libero (2005)	100%
1/5	" All involved should be sent straight to the glue factory." Posted Jan 24, 2008	Lady Godiva (2008)	n/a
