3/4	"*Charming to the max, Served* unfolds in Czechoslovakia when it was ruled by the Germans and, later, the Soviets.*" Posted Aug 29, 2008*	I Served the King of England (2008)	94%
	"It is, of course, a must for Miike's legions of fans, of which I am one. It also should serve as a way for mainstream audiences to become acquainted with Miike." Posted Aug 29, 2008	Sukiyaki Western Django (2008)	68%
4/4	"*It's time to stop calling Azazel Jacobs a 'promising' filmmaker. With Momma's Man, Jacobs achieves the promise." Posted Aug 22, 2008*	Momma's Man (2008)	94%
2.5/4	"*At 134 angst-filled minutes, The Sensation of Sight* might tax your patience, but there are rewards for the persistent.*" Posted Aug 22, 2008*	The Sensation of Sight (2008)	60%
3/4	"The film Never Apologize... doesn't sound like compelling viewing. But when the man on the stage is actor Malcolm McDowell and his subject is British filmmaker Lindsay Anderson, the viewing is entertaining and touching." Posted Aug 15, 2008	Never Apologize: A Personal Visit with Lindsay Anderson (2008)	n/a
2/4	"*Matthews is supposed to be the star here, but it's Englund's hilarious, over-the-top performance that keeps Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer... from becoming another forgettable exercise in horror." Posted Aug 15, 2008*	Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer (2008)	63%
3/4	"A high point shows O'Day, in a black-and-white hat and form-fitting dress, singing "Sweet Georgia Brown" at the Newport Jazz Festival. That scene alone confirms O'Day's place among the greats." Posted Aug 15, 2008	Anita O'Day - The Life Of A Jazz Singer (2008)	100%
3/4	"*Chabrol is approaching the big 8-0, yet he continues to do quality work, as shown by A Girl Cut in Two." Posted Aug 15, 2008*	A Girl Cut in Two (2008)	79%
2/4	"Well shot and edited despite its meager budget, Last Stop for Paul -- said to be based on a true story -- is good-natured, lightweight fun, although clich�d and more suited to DVD and cable than the big screen." Posted Aug 8, 2008	Last Stop For Paul (2008)	64%
3/4	"[A] pleasant film, which sings the praises of nonconformity." Posted Aug 8, 2008	Beautiful Losers (2008)	67%
3/4	"*I imagine you could call Dream of Life* a loving meditation on a one-of-a-kind performer. And you don't have to be a Smith fan (I am one, by the way) to enjoy.*" Posted Aug 8, 2008*	Patti Smith: Dream of Life (2008)	63%
2/4	"Everybody loves a good conspiracy theory, and I'm more than willing to believe that Kerry really won. But Fadiman offers only circumstantial evidence when a smoking gun is needed." Posted Aug 1, 2008	Stealing America: Vote By Vote (2008)	50%
2/4	"Interesting but messy." Posted Aug 1, 2008	America The Beautiful (2008)	68%
2/4	"*Part soap opera, part soft-core gay sex movie, No Regret* is the debut feature by Leesong Hee-il, who is said to be South Korea's first openly gay filmmaker.*" Posted Jul 25, 2008*	No Regret (2008)	57%
3/4	"A collection of 20 or so some times raunchy, often offensive and always entertaining animated shorts from around the world." Posted Jul 25, 2008	The Animation Show 4 (2008)	86%
3/4	"Meet the real-life Edward Scissorhands, Pearl Fryar." Posted Jul 18, 2008	A Man Named Pearl (2008)	70%
3/4	"Mad Detective doesn't always make sense, and you cannot always tell what is real and what is imaginary, but viewers will be having too much zonked-out fun to care." Posted Jul 18, 2008	Mad Detective (2008)	82%
3/4	"Occasionally, Assarat -- who studied in the US -- drops a hint about sinister times to come, but nothing prepares the audience for what does happen." Posted Jul 18, 2008	Wonderful Town (2008)	91%

1.5/4	"Perhaps it would have been wise for the director, Roger Spottiswoode, to make more efficient use of Chow Yun-fat, who shows up now and then as a resistance fighter." Posted Jul 16, 2008	The Children of Huang Shi (2008)	27%

2.5/4	"The story becomes so convoluted and contrived (pursued by police, Alex just happens to run into a patient's father, who owes the doctor a big favor) that much of the tension dissipates." Posted Jul 16, 2008	Tell No One (2008)	91%
1.5/4	"Has little to offer beyond titillation and pretty landscapes." Posted Jul 16, 2008	Eight Miles High (2007)	36%
3.5/4	"It took nearly 50 years, but an important piece of film history is finally getting its due." Posted Jul 11, 2008	The Exiles (1961)	89%
3/4	"Just when I thought I had heard everything about the war in Iraq, along comes Full Battle Rattle." Posted Jul 9, 2008	Full Battle Rattle (2008)	74%
3.5/4	"The most overtly sensual film to come our way of late." Posted Jun 27, 2008	The Last Mistress (2008)	78%
3/4	"Remembrances by aides and relatives plus antique photos and close-ups of her work -- including her iconic giant spiders -- round out the loving film." Posted Jun 27, 2008	Louise Bourgeois: The Spider, The Mistress and The Tangerine (2008)	91%
1/4	"As even a novice moviegoer would expect, they argue and drink, then argue and drink some more." Posted Jun 27, 2008	Red Roses and Petrol (2008)	0%
0.5/4	"The flick is so vile and misogynistic -- the women exist solely to titillate -- that even perverts will have a tough time." Posted Jun 27, 2008	Wicked Lake (2008)	n/a
3/4	Click here to read article Posted Jun 27, 2008	IMAX - Blue Planet (1990)	83%
3/4	"*Guy Maddin's films are always delightful, but his latest, My Winnipeg, has an added treat for film buffs: It features Ann Savage!" Posted Jun 13, 2008*	My Winnipeg (2008)	95%
3/4	"Encounters may lack the power of, say, the Herzog doc Grizzly Man, because it has no bigger-than-life character at its nexus, but it does confirm the filmmaker as an iconoclastic master." Posted Jun 13, 2008	Encounters at the End of the World (2007)	94%
3/4	"The exhilaration is triggered by the documentary's glowing depiction of a beautiful Earth; the depression comes from the knowledge that the natural bounty that God bestowed on us is being destroyed by greedy humankind." Posted Jun 13, 2008	Blue Planet (1981)	83%
2/4	"Will Marcela (wonderful Ana Geislerova) opt for brains or brawn? The answer might surprise you." Posted Jun 13, 2008	Beauty in Trouble (2008)	74%
1/4	"The film lacks the visual class of previous Argento efforts and relies more on shocks than suspense." Posted Jun 6, 2008	Mother of Tears (2008)	49%
3/4	"*It would seem no easy task conveying the essence of a bigger-than-life figure like Ellison in a 96-minute film. But Nelson, producer of Werner Herzog's Grizzly Man,* makes it look easy.*" Posted Jun 6, 2008*	Dreams with Sharp Teeth (2008)	93%
3/4	"*Relying on ambient sound, a handheld camera and lots of close-ups, Take Out* is realistically raw and bleak.*" Posted Jun 6, 2008*	Take Out (2008)	100%
2/4	"It gets more and more ridiculous and unbelievable as it goes along, and the final scene is shamelessly manipulative." Posted May 30, 2008	The Unknown Woman (2008)	62%
2/4	"Nonstop violence, gallons of spurting blood, outrageous humor (a kitchen scene is a hoot), extreme vomiting, a drill bra, human sushi and tempura, and other perversity." Posted May 28, 2008	The Machine Girl (2008)	63%
3.5/4	"A charming and unassuming movie directed and co-written by Yasmin Ahmad." Posted May 28, 2008	Mukhsin (2006)	n/a
3/4f	"*The low-budget movie's technical qualities aren't always the best, but considering the conditions under which the filmmakers worked, it's amazing that Heavy Metal in Baghdad* was made at all.*" Posted May 23, 2008*	Heavy Metal In Baghdad (2008)	91%
3/4	"*All too often, films about interconnected lives stumble under the weight of coincidences. Not The Edge of Heaven. Akin, who also scripted, is too savvy to let that happen." Posted May 23, 2008*	The Edge of Heaven (2008)	89%
3/4	"My Father My Lord lasts just 73 minutes, and I spent the first hour or so wondering what the director-writer, David Volach, was getting at in his nearly plotless feature debut." Posted May 16, 2008	My Father My Lord (2008)	92%
3/4	"A suspenseful movie with no intention of sugarcoating the daily hardships of New York's underclass." Posted May 16, 2008	Sangre de Mi Sangre (2008)	83%
3/4	"Makes for interesting viewing." Posted May 16, 2008	Yella (2008)	78%
1/4	"The film is a collection of not especially funny routines - with lots of homophobic jokes thrown in - that have been done to death in previous movies of this sort." Posted May 9, 2008	OSS 117: Cairo, Nest of Spies (2008)	76%
3/4	"I have a feeling that this is the last time we'll see a down-and-dirty Ellen Page." Posted May 9, 2008	The Tracey Fragments (2008)	40%
2/4	"Merchant-Ivory productions are usually visual delights, and Before the Rains is no exception. Pity that the direction and narrative lack passion. If there's anything a story of interracial adultery needs, it's passion." Posted May 9, 2008	Before the Rains (2008)	46%
3/4	"As Tears Go By doesn't measure up to Wong's later classics, such as In the Mood for Love (2000) and Chungking Express (1994), but it shows a master in the making." Posted May 2, 2008	As Tears Go By (1988)	75%
