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

Fresh 3.5/5	Fresh 84%	Disgrace (2009)	" A perfectly cast John Malkovich gives a superb performance in a powerful and intelligent study of a man coming back from the brink." Posted Dec 4, 2009
Fresh 4/5	Rotten 58%	Vinyan (2008)	" A remorselessly grim but deeply affecting psychological horror that's likely to bitterly divide its audience. Not for the faint-hearted, Vinyan is a pitch-black, poetic exploration of the nightmare of losing a child." Posted Oct 4, 2009
Fresh 3.5/5	Fresh 95%	Obscene: A Portrait Of Barney Rosset And Grove Press (2008)	" While the filmmakers squander some excellent opportunities that might have helped to illuminate the contradictions in their subject, this remains a fascinating study of an unrepentant American maverick." Posted Feb 27, 2009
Fresh 3/5	Fresh 80%	Gran Torino (2008)	" Eastwood's swansong performance provides the glue for a foul-mouthed, funny, deeply un-PC and very likeable drama that toys with Eastwood's image as a macho icon and slowly turns audience expectations on their head." Posted Feb 19, 2009
Fresh 3.5/5	Fresh 78%	Three Monkeys (2009)	" A grim, slow-burning exploration of guilt, grief and murder that keeps the audience at arm's length through its cold, intermittently misanthropic, vision of humanity but which is filled with ravishing images and a powerfully brooding atmosphere." Posted Feb 12, 2009
Rotten 2.5/5	Rotten 30%	Who Killed Nancy? (2009)	" A very watchable but frustratingly inconclusive investigation into a classic punk whodunit." Posted Feb 5, 2009
Fresh 3/5	Fresh 68%	Revolutionary Road (2008)	" A worthy but slightly cold adaptation of a classic American novel that fails to fully engage the audience's sympathy despite first-rate performances and some sublime camerawork by multiple Oscar nominee Roger Deakins." Posted Jan 30, 2009
Rotten	Rotten 24%	Incendiary (2008)	" A promising opening and a stunning performance from Michelle Williams are not enough to rescue a film that jumps restlessly from genre to genre without doing justice to any of its individual stories." Posted Oct 24, 2008
Rotten 2.5/5	Fresh 69%	The Wave (2008)	" An intriguing premise, well performed by the actors and engagingly directed by Gansel, suffers from a script that tries to pack too much into a single week and an ending that feels forced and didactic." Posted Sep 19, 2008
Rotten 2.5/5	Rotten 44%	Redacted (2007)	" An interesting failure, De Palma's film starts well and has moments of exceptional power but ultimately loses itself in its rambling structure. If you haven't already seen it, you'd probably be better off going back to De Palma's Casualties Of War, which" Posted Mar 14, 2008
Rotten 2.5/5	Rotten 49%	My Blueberry Nights (2008)	" Stunning photography and Wong's formidable directing abilities cannot salvage this emotionally empty exercise in style." Posted Feb 22, 2008
Fresh 4/5	Fresh 94%	The Violin (2007)	" A quietly gripping adversarial duel lies at the heart of this political thriller, which has been hailed as a masterpiece in Vargas's native Mexico." Posted Jan 4, 2008
Fresh 4/5	Fresh 91%	Silent Night (2006)	" While there will be those who'll have issues with the film's torpid pacing, those who are willing to submit to Reygadas' astonishing vision will find themselves entranced and ultimately uplifted by the incredible transformative power of his filmmaking." Posted Dec 7, 2007
Fresh 4/5	Fresh 82%	Into the Wild (2007)	" Penn's best movie to date rests on a brilliant performance by Hirsch, who gets under the skin of the fascinating character at the centre of the piece." Posted Nov 9, 2007
