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

Fresh	Fresh 63%	The Girlfriend Experience (2009)	" Grey isn�t the first porn actress to go straight, but she may be the first to allegorize her own situation -- projecting an on-screen self-confidence that�s indistinguishable from pathos." — Village Voice Posted Apr 28, 2009
—	Fresh 96%	Gomorra (2008)	Click here to read article — Village Voice Posted Feb 11, 2009
Fresh	Fresh 91%	Gomorrah (2009)	" Detailing daily life inside a criminal state, it's a new sort of gangster film for America to ponder." — Village Voice Posted Feb 10, 2009
Fresh	Fresh 74%	A Girl Cut in Two (2008)	" A Girl Cut in Two is a spry piece of work. Chabrol uses this sinister clown show as a means to puncture the media world's hot-air balloons -- as well as to highlight the hypocrisies of his favorite target, the haute bourgeoisie." — Village Voice Posted Aug 13, 2008
Fresh	Rotten 53%	Get Smart (2008)	" A pleasant surprise." — Village Voice Posted Jun 17, 2008
Fresh	Fresh 81%	Ghosts of Cite Soleil (2007)	" *That the most powerful aspect of this story is described rather than shown is one of Ghosts' many mysteries. Another is Leth's remarkable access to his subjects." — Village Voice* Posted Jun 27, 2007
Rotten	Rotten 32%	The Good German (2006)	" The Good German is seriously deficient in the stars' star power and narrative excitement. The movie is lovingly framed, carefully lit, and fatally insipid." — Village Voice Posted Dec 12, 2006
Rotten	Fresh 67%	The Girl Can't Help It (1956)	" A veritable Parthenon of vulgarity and a supremely unfunny comedy that is pure eau de Fifty-Six." — Village Voice Posted Aug 22, 2006
Rotten	Rotten 54%	Go For Zucker (2004)	" Go for Zucker is mildly tasteless (nat�rlich), if not exactly uproarious." — Village Voice Posted Jan 17, 2006
Fresh	Fresh 64%	Good Morning, Night (2003)	" Sober yet filled with fancy. There's a wistful aspect to the movie." — Village Voice Posted Nov 8, 2005
Fresh	Fresh 85%	Gunner Palace (2005)	" Gunner Palace has a raw home video quality that's often quite beautiful. Much of the movie is hardly more than an immersion in sights and sounds." — Village Voice Posted Mar 3, 2005
Fresh	Fresh 90%	Going Upriver: The Long War of John Kerry (2004)	" *I got a charge out of Going Upriver." — Village Voice* Posted Sep 28, 2004
Fresh	Fresh 63%	Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence (2004)	" You can call me fanboy, but this is the best anime I've ever seen." — Village Voice Posted Sep 14, 2004
Fresh	Fresh 81%	Goodbye Dragon Inn (2004)	" A movie of elegant understatement and considerable formal intelligence." — Village Voice Posted Sep 14, 2004
—	Rotten 26%	Godzilla (1998)	Click here to read article — Village Voice Posted May 5, 2004
Fresh	Fresh 93%	Gojira (1954)	" As crass as it is visionary, Godzilla belongs with -- and might well trump -- the art films Hiroshima Mon Amour and Dr. Strangelove as a daring attempt to fashion a terrible poetry from the mind-melting horror of atomic warfare." — Village Voice Posted May 4, 2004
Rotten	Fresh 89%	Good Bye, Lenin! (2004)	" *Overlong and a bit tiresome but it's actually about something -- not so much ostalgie* as the conditions that create it.*" — Village Voice* Posted Feb 24, 2004
Fresh	Fresh 72%	Girl with a Pearl Earring (2003)	" As the imaginary historical subject, Johansson holds her frequent close-ups with considerable authority." — Village Voice Posted Dec 9, 2003
Rotten	Fresh 60%	Gerry (2003)	" An anxious movie-object that might well wonder whether its minimalist aspiration is a matter of ambitious purity or empty pretense." — Village Voice Posted Feb 11, 2003
Rotten	Fresh 76%	Gangs of New York (2002)	" A lavish folly that suffers from an odd downscale effect." — Village Voice Posted Dec 17, 2002
Fresh	Fresh 78%	Gaza Strip (2003)	" A documentary to make the stones weep -- as shameful as it is scary." — Village Voice Posted Nov 11, 2002
Fresh	Fresh 82%	The Good Girl (2002)	" A droll, well-acted, character-driven comedy with unexpected deposits of feeling." — Village Voice Posted Aug 6, 2002
Fresh	Fresh 91%	A Grin Without A Cat (2002)	" *More impressionistic than analytical, A Grin Without a Cat* is a grand immersion.*" — Village Voice* Posted Apr 30, 2002
Fresh	Fresh 92%	Ghost World (2001)	" It's smart enough to recognize that, as fleeting as adolescence may be, the world is haunted by the post-adolescent walking wounded." — Village Voice Posted Jul 18, 2001
Fresh	Rotten 56%	The Gift (2001)	" A creepily effective button-pusher." — Village Voice Posted Jan 17, 2001
Fresh	Fresh 81%	Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai (1999)	" Ghost Dog is an impeccably shot and sensationally scored deadpan parody of two current popular modes -- the hit-man glorification saga and the Cosa Nostra family drama." — Village Voice Posted Jan 1, 2000
Fresh	Fresh 88%	Girlfight (2000)	" A near-irresistible button-pusher that's agile enough to hold a mirror to its own aspirations." — Village Voice Posted Jan 1, 2000
Rotten	Fresh 77%	Gladiator (2000)	" Self-proclaimed 'world-creator' Scott only intermittently obliterates the turgid narrative and mediocre dialogue." — Village Voice Posted Jan 1, 2000
Fresh	Fresh 92%	Go (1999)	" A disaster film with an exceedingly witty premise. Instead of a terrorist, volcano, or extraterrestrial invasion, catastrophe is precipitated by the madcap behavior of rash and reckless American youth." — Village Voice Posted Jan 1, 2000
