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

Fresh	Fresh 67%	Public Enemies (2009)	" Too detached emotionally and a bit opaque in its characterizations but the swift footed camera work has a harsh beauty and Johnny Depp entertains." — Film Experience Posted Jul 2, 2009
Fresh B	Fresh 89%	Moon (2009)	" For those who like their science fiction with a little science or their movies with plenty of conversation fodder for dinner afterwards, Moon is tough to beat." — Film Experience Posted Jul 2, 2009
Fresh B	Rotten 54%	Cheri (2009)	" *Lacks the precision and control of this same team's randy vicious Dangerous Liaisons* but thanks to the lead actors, it stings and lingers*" — Film Experience* Posted Jul 2, 2009
Fresh A	Fresh 100%	The Terminator (1984)	" "TECH%u2022NOIR" indeed. He's a futuristic machine and this movie is pitch black with menace." — Film Experience Posted May 15, 2009
Fresh	Fresh 95%	Star Trek (2009)	" *We didn't exactly need* another Star Trek but it finds the perfect blend of action, drama and nostalgic comedy.*" — Film Experience* Posted May 8, 2009
Fresh	N/A	Girlfriends (1978)	" Engaging, funny and nuanced. It's a real shame that a picture this good isn't available on DVD." — Film Experience Posted Apr 25, 2009
Fresh	Fresh 91%	Every Little Step (2009)	" Good if shrill fun. Who knew how difficult "At the Ballet" was to sing without screeching?" — Film Experience Posted Apr 25, 2009
Rotten D	Rotten 33%	Knowing (2009)	" Nicolas Cage finally has an excuse for his Joey Tribiani 'smell the fart' acting style. The movie stinks." — Film Experience Posted Mar 21, 2009
Fresh A-	Fresh 88%	Coraline (2009)	" richly creepy, funny and completely confident" — Film Experience Posted Mar 13, 2009
Fresh A	Fresh 100%	Meet Me in St. Louis (1944)	" The onscreen blossoming of Judy Garland in Vincente Minnelli's career making hit. Pure heaven." — Film Experience Posted Mar 13, 2009
Fresh A	Fresh 100%	Playtime (1967)	" Comic choreography, nimble filmmaking and trenchant jokes. A masterpiece." — Film Experience Posted Mar 13, 2009
Rotten C	Fresh 64%	Watchmen (2009)	" Impressive effects but all its glories are borrowed." — Film Experience Posted Mar 13, 2009
Fresh B	Rotten 54%	Australia (2008)	" epic, magical and romantic... but unwieldy and muddled, too." — Film Experience Posted Nov 24, 2008
Rotten C+	Rotten 41%	Blindness (2008)	" The cool desaturated palette hides the very off-putting but necessary horror that the novel achieved. Despite a solid cast it's a little flat." — Film Experience Posted Oct 5, 2008
Rotten D+	Rotten 53%	Mamma Mia! (2008)	" I believe that genealogy would prove "director" Phyllida Lloyd a descendant of Ed Wood himself." — Film Experience Posted Oct 4, 2008
Rotten C	Fresh 61%	Changeling (2008)	" This undisciplined picture can't decide which kind of movie it is: melodrama, courtroom, serial killer thriller, procedural, period epic..." — Film Experience Posted Oct 4, 2008
Fresh	Fresh 73%	Under the Same Moon (2008)	" I did dab my eyes several times as I exited the theater." — Pajiba Posted Sep 10, 2008
—	Fresh 87%	All That Jazz (1979)	Click here to read article — Pajiba Posted Sep 10, 2008
Rotten	Rotten 57%	Married Life (2008)	" Even movies that dare to paint dark portraits of the sacred institution can�t resist glorifying it in the end." — Pajiba Posted Sep 10, 2008
Rotten	Rotten 40%	Savage Grace (2008)	" For all the Baekalands� outr� behavior, the movie is peculiarly timid at times." — Pajiba Posted Sep 10, 2008
Fresh	Fresh 87%	Roman de Gare (2008)	" It�s too bad you can�t shove a new theatrical release into your beach bag, as if it were a well-worn paperback." — Pajiba Posted Sep 10, 2008
Fresh B	Fresh 64%	Stop-Loss (2008)	" An honest vocalization of the inchoate discomfort so many Americans on either side of the political divide are feeling." — Film Experience Posted May 15, 2008
Rotten	Rotten 18%	Sleepwalking (2008)	" Theron sneaks out the door roughly 1/2 an hour into the picture. What is the movie to do without her energy?" — Film Experience Posted May 15, 2008
Fresh	Fresh 89%	Roman Polanski: Wanted and Desired (2008)	" What's most interesting is the correlations drawn between the diminutive director and the infamous judge who presided over the case like an auteur of the courtroom" — Film Experience Posted May 15, 2008
Rotten	Fresh 60%	I Could Never Be Your Woman (2008)	" a rather ignominious defeat for a "comeback" performance from one of the great stars" — Film Experience Posted May 15, 2008
Fresh	Fresh 82%	Atonement (2007)	" Few films this year were as magnificent looking and few as misunderstood." — Film Experience Posted May 15, 2008
Fresh B-	Fresh 98%	Anvil! The Story of Anvil (2009)	" Funny, sweet and often interesting... but the desperation is so tangible it proves exhausting" — Film Experience Posted May 15, 2008
Fresh A	Fresh 89%	The Piano (1993)	" *It's often incorrectly reduced to a feminist fable, but the scope of Jane Campion's achievement is broader. If anything The Piano* is a masterwork of humanism.*" — Film Experience* Posted May 15, 2008
Rotten D+	Rotten 24%	The Life Before Her Eyes (2008)	" Should my life flash before my eyes before my demise, I am certain that movie scenes will appear. I only ask that this movie not be included in the edit." — Film Experience Posted May 15, 2008
Rotten C+	Rotten 37%	Speed Racer (2008)	" Messy and undisciplined, if at least always itself. But isn't this a more suitable aesthetic for an imaginary movie version of Marvel's 'Dazzler'" — Film Experience Posted May 15, 2008
Fresh B-	Fresh 93%	Iron Man (2008)	" a fun night at the movies but unfortunately disposable" — Film Experience Posted May 15, 2008
Fresh	Fresh 85%	Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (2007)	" Tim Burton's most focused, alert and satisfying film since Ed Wood" — Film Experience Posted Dec 22, 2007
Fresh	Fresh 71%	Beowulf (2007)	" Things I never expected to see in a major motion picture..." — Film Experience Posted Dec 7, 2007
Fresh	Rotten 42%	The Golden Compass (2007)	" Fans of the book may be thrilled to see it come to life but this tentative film demands a tougher minded, more confident sequel." — Film Experience Posted Dec 7, 2007
Fresh	Fresh 94%	Blade Runner - The Final Cut (1982)	" The macro eye closeup that opens this spectacular film (newly scrubbed and polished) is a perfect statement for the movie, human but abstract: unconnected to a face." — Film Experience Posted Oct 11, 2007
Fresh	Fresh 93%	The Diving Bell and the Butterfly (2007)	" less cloying and superficial than other movies of its subgenre and directed with true showman's flair." — Film Experience Posted Oct 11, 2007
Fresh	Fresh 77%	I'm Not There (2007)	" the multiple actor gimmick is fascinating to grapple with (as is the movies comparably shape-shifting visual identity) but it leads to an uneven ride" — Film Experience Posted Oct 11, 2007
Rotten	Rotten 34%	Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007)	" as elaborate, silly and attention seeking as one of Elizabeth's feathery headdresses." — Film Experience Posted Oct 11, 2007
Fresh	Fresh 89%	Eastern Promises (2007)	" *If ...Violence* was Cronenberg's gift to Viggo Mortensen, unlocking the greatness of the rising star, consider this the actor's return favor. He's mesmerizing.*" — Film Experience* Posted Sep 21, 2007
Rotten D+	Rotten 43%	The Brave One (2007)	" Following her first vigilante act, the movie starts hemorhagging IQ points and the faux hand wringing escalates. This movie never stops lying to itself" — Film Experience Posted Sep 14, 2007
Rotten	Fresh 76%	Stardust (2007)	" Pfeiffer rocks. The rest is merely rocky." — Film Experience Posted Aug 10, 2007
Rotten	Rotten 58%	Becoming Jane (2007)	" Becoming Jane isn't purposefully cynical but if you stop to consider it, it rather undermines Austen's great talent." — Film Experience Posted Aug 6, 2007
Fresh	Fresh 90%	The Women (1939)	" a bitchy but endearing mix of comedy and melodrama. Norma Shearer holds the chaos together with improbable dignity." — Film Experience Posted Jul 20, 2007
Fresh	Fresh 97%	Rope (1948)	" An elaborately perverse buffet served up at a pivotal moment in Hitchcock's career" — Film Experience Posted Jul 20, 2007
Fresh	Fresh 90%	The Little Mermaid (1989)	" A coming of age fable for both Disney and the mermaid heroine" — Film Experience Posted Jul 20, 2007
Fresh	Rotten 41%	Xanadu (1980)	" Kooky abandon and unembarassed chutzpah make it a movie nobody dared to love" — Film Experience Posted Jul 20, 2007
Fresh	Fresh 91%	Hairspray (2007)	" *Good morning Moviegoers. Each new Hairspray's an open door. Each new "Tracy" a fantasy Each new version a symphony" — Film Experience* Posted Jul 20, 2007
Rotten	Rotten 56%	Transformers (2007)	" When you get a good view you'll probably be thrilled. But the thrills vanish with the next quick cut. There should have been more that met the eye." — Film Experience Posted Jul 4, 2007
Fresh	Fresh 96%	Ratatouille (2007)	" My compliments to the chef Brad Bird. This writer/director has one of the best young filmographies in the world." — Film Experience Posted Jul 3, 2007
Fresh	Fresh 77%	A Mighty Heart (2007)	" The best thing about it is the very thing that's most potentially maddening to moviegoers. Movies and TV offer US a steady diet of reductive emotional sensationalism but this one, like its protagonist, keeps a cool head even in horrific situations." — Film Experience Posted Jun 29, 2007
