3/5	" It's an exciting movie, done in the flashy, breath-catching hyper-visual mode we expect from Scott. But in the end, it gets bogged down ..." -- Movie City News Posted Oct 10, 2008	Body of Lies (2008)	49%
3.5/4	" We should be glad that del Toro is operating at his peak right now, getting all the money and latitude he needs to weave his spells." -- Movie City News Posted Jul 10, 2008	Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008)	88%
3/4	" Hanson and Roth shuffle the two sides of the movie, the poker tournament and the love affair, with a Howard Hawksian feel for casual professionalism." -- Chicago Tribune Posted Apr 10, 2008	Lucky You (2007)	29%
	" It's enjoyable precisely because Hahn and Gabel give us both sides of the experience: the interviewer and interviewee. Though there�s an undercurrent of melancholy, Anthem is a bright ride, a welcome shot of 60�s optimism in a gray post-modern age." -- Chicago Tribune Posted Sep 24, 2007	Anthem (1997)	80%

3/4	" *Steel City is one of the most hopeful movies I've seen recently -- not just for its humane, realistic story line (about a small-town family in crisis), but in its very being." -- Chicago Tribune* Posted Jun 14, 2007	Steel City (2006)	86%
3/4	" One hell of a movie." -- Chicago Tribune Posted Jun 14, 2007	Day Watch (2007)	63%
3.5/4	" An often lyrical and moving movie." -- Chicago Tribune Posted Jun 14, 2007	Golden Door (2007)	70%
	" A real masterpiece of puppetry and special effects, an absolutely gorgeous children's fantasy movie." -- Chicago Tribune Posted Jun 14, 2007	Labyrinth (1986)	58%
4/4	" A film about love and blunders done from the perspective of age, crafted by writer Alan Ayckbourn, 68, and director Alain Resnais, 85. Our younger directors and screenwriters should show this much brilliance and feeling." -- Chicago Tribune Posted Jun 8, 2007	Private Fears in Public Places (2007)	79%
3/4	" *Jaglom's Hollywood Dreams* are far closer to reality than they might seem. Unfortunately.*" -- Chicago Tribune* Posted Jun 7, 2007	Hollywood Dreams (2007)	38%
2.5/4	" We all have our own view of paradise, but as long as Besson has Arbogast, his camera and those surreal bare Parisian streets, his schlocky heaven enchants the eye, if not the mind." -- Chicago Tribune Posted Jun 7, 2007	Angel-A (2007)	43%
2.5/4	" A documentary about a mad love affair, a movie that's about as compulsively watchable as a great tabloid headline story is compulsively readable -- and also a lot more rewarding." -- Chicago Tribune Posted Jun 7, 2007	Crazy Love (2007)	78%
3/4	" The movie keeps flooding us with strange, scary imagery." -- Chicago Tribune Posted Jun 7, 2007	Paprika (2007)	82%
	" *John Hurt, the star of The Climb, is an actor with an often staggering capacity for conveying human suffering." -- Chicago Tribune* Posted Jun 4, 2007	The Climb (1999)	n/a
3/4	" A movie that can wound you." -- Chicago Tribune Posted May 31, 2007	Stephanie Daley (2007)	89%
4/4	" If you haven't seen it, you have an incredible treat in store." -- Chicago Tribune Posted May 31, 2007	War and Peace (1968)	100%
2.5/4	" *If it's not likely to send you scurrying off to the place on your next vacation, it's still a fascinating, nutty story, a kind of Chinatown* gone wrong (or gone more wrong ).*" -- Chicago Tribune* Posted May 31, 2007	Plagues and Pleasures on the Salton Sea (2007)	95%
3/4	" A nerve-rending, extremely unpleasant experience but also a compelling one." -- Chicago Tribune Posted May 24, 2007	Bug (2007)	59%
3/4	" It's intellectual without being dry, dramatic without bombast, smart without posturing." -- Chicago Tribune Posted May 24, 2007	Poison Friends (2007)	88%
3.5/4	" You couldn't call it perfect -- the episodes are uneven -- but it has something that sometimes is better than perfection: real love for its subject and themes." -- Chicago Tribune Posted May 24, 2007	Paris, Je T'aime (2007)	85%
3.5/4	" The most visually spectacular, action-packed and surreal of the adventures of Capt. Jack Sparrow." -- Chicago Tribune Posted May 23, 2007	Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End (2007)	45%
3/4	" Nicola Sacco, Bartolomeo Vanzetti, and the incredible firestorm of outrage generated by their criminal trials have been largely neglected in recent years, but Peter Miller's absolutely engrossing documentary Sacco and Vanzetti brings it all back." -- Chicago Tribune Posted May 17, 2007	Sacco & Vanzetti (2007)	88%
3/4	" Everything's Gone Green is a romantic comedy/social satire that, on a modest budget, manages to be hip, charming, funny and dressed to kill." -- Chicago Tribune Posted May 17, 2007	Everything's Gone Green (2007)	68%
2.5/4	" *Hal Hartley's Fay Grim* strikes me as something of an elaborate mistake, a wasted opportunity and a script Hartley should have discarded. But I liked it anyway.*" -- Chicago Tribune* Posted May 17, 2007	Fay Grim (2007)	43%
3/4	" Written and directed by the late Adrienne Shelly, it's a scrumptious romantic comedy, a mostly adorable movie from a witty and winning movie talent whom we lost all too soon." -- Chicago Tribune Posted May 10, 2007	Waitress (2007)	88%
2.5/4	" The content may be dubious, but the execution is hypnotic." -- Chicago Tribune Posted May 10, 2007	Exterminating Angels (2007)	47%
2/4	" *Maybe Georgia Rule* should be required viewing for Paris Hilton during her term in the slammer. But not for us.*" -- Chicago Tribune* Posted May 10, 2007	Georgia Rule (2007)	18%
4/4	" Bergmanesque and beautiful, set in a wintry landscape fitfully lit by one woman's flickering awareness and one man's long-term, stubborn love, Away from Her is one of the most remarkable and moving love stories the movies have recently given us." -- Chicago Tribune Posted May 10, 2007	Away From Her (2007)	94%
3/4	" Tells a tale both fast and moving. And when Miller as Obree takes his whirls around the track, it gets your heart pumping and your blood up." -- Chicago Tribune Posted May 4, 2007	The Flying Scotsman (2007)	50%
3/4	" The movie has some of the feel of a good graphic novel and offers a lot of Japanese pop pleasures as well. The images are eye-catching and highly colorful, the pacing is fast, and the story and the characters are simple, grabby and archetypal." -- Chicago Tribune Posted Apr 27, 2007	Ping Pong (2002)	75%
4/4	" *[Loach is] the master of the docu-drama or the realist social film, and Wind* is one of his masterpieces.*" -- Chicago Tribune* Posted Apr 27, 2007	The Wind That Shakes the Barley (2007)	88%
3.5/4	" Shot for only $1.7 million, but it's a thoroughly entertaining, first-class job in every way." -- Chicago Tribune Posted Apr 26, 2007	Disappearances (2006)	52%
1/4	" *Despite a slick production and good actors, The Condemned* is a real stinker.*" -- Chicago Tribune* Posted Apr 26, 2007	The Condemned (2007)	16%
3/4	" It's enjoyable in a dry but fervent way that most American comedies aren't." -- Chicago Tribune Posted Apr 23, 2007	Year of the Dog (2007)	69%
3/4	" If you're not moved by his movie, you're really a hard case." -- Chicago Tribune Posted Apr 20, 2007	The Cats of Mirikitani (2006)	96%
4/4	" *Jafar Panahi of Iran is one of his country's great filmmakers, and Offside* is his best movie to date.*" -- Chicago Tribune* Posted Apr 20, 2007	Offside (2006)	95%
3/4	" *The kind of sleazily effective horror/genre movie Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino were trying for in Grindhouse. Vacancy* catches you by the throat and puts you through the wringer.*" -- Chicago Tribune* Posted Apr 19, 2007	Vacancy (2007)	55%
3.5/4	" The movie scrambles our responses and covers so much ground, with such zest, that its two and a half hours race past like a firestorm." -- Chicago Tribune Posted Apr 12, 2007	Black Book (2007)	76%
2/4	" Comparisons [to Rear Window] are probably something the makers of Disturbia don't want us to make, since Disturbia, for all its glitz and gadgets, is markedly inferior in everything but teen appeal." -- Chicago Tribune Posted Apr 12, 2007	Disturbia (2007)	67%
2/4	" Though you can't say Pathfinder doesn't deliver the goods, action-wise, the movie often has trouble sticking to its story between battles or involving us with its characters and its self-consciously mythic hero." -- Chicago Tribune Posted Apr 12, 2007	Pathfinder (2007)	11%
3/4	" The filmmakers catch the right glittery look and paranoid intensity, and they make gutsy speculations about the story beneath the story." -- Chicago Tribune Posted Apr 5, 2007	The Hoax (2007)	85%
