2.5/5	"The movie is very funny, but I was disapointed the movie plays up Bud's drinking and excessive use of profanity throughout the movie" -- ReviewExpress.com Posted Aug 2, 2008	Swing Vote (2008)	39%
4/5	"*I encourage anyone who has the opportunity to see The Dark Knight* in the IMAX format, DO! It's impressive beyond imagination.*" -- ReviewExpress.com* Posted Jul 18, 2008	The Dark Knight (2008)	94%
3.5/5	"*With a plethora of violent and drug-related movies streaming into theaters faster than a Star Wars battleship, the heartfelt Kit Kittredge* offers an enjoyable breath of fresh air.*" -- ReviewExpress.com* Posted Jul 7, 2008	Kit Kittredge: An American Girl (2008)	79%
4/5	"In a world that is moving too fast and changing too rapidly, a moment to pause and and reflect on what's really important in life and enjoy it at the same time is rare. There are lots of those moments in WALL-E." -- ReviewExpress.com Posted Jun 29, 2008	WALL-E (2008)	97%
	"The action and CGI effects alone would make 'Wanted' worth seeing, but it's Angelina Jolie's stunning and focused work that dazzled me." -- ReelTalk Movie Reviews Posted Jun 26, 2008	Wanted (2008)	73%
4/5	"*Devotees of Hulk* will not be disappointed with this new adventure, and Norton doesn't let down his fans by taking on the role of the mammoth man with a loud roar.*" -- ReviewExpress.com* Posted Jun 13, 2008	The Incredible Hulk (2008)	67%
4/5	"John Wayne carried off the lead role without a hitch. It seemed as if he had carried dozens of lead roles before instead of this being his first." -- Classic Movie Guide Posted May 28, 2008	The Big Trail (1930)	100%
4/5	"*Offering fun, excitement, familiar things, new elements and roller coaster-ride adventure, The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull* is all it promises to be.*" -- ReviewExpress.com* Posted May 21, 2008	Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008)	77%

	"Robert Downey Jr., full-swing back into his acting genius, is exceptional as Iron Man. Life for Tony Stark is cool, and you can almost image him doing the Charlie Chaplain waddle across his workshop." -- ReviewExpress.com Posted May 4, 2008	Iron Man (2008)	93%
2/5	"*If some of the obvious "spoiliers" and plot holes had been addressed early on, Deception* might have been the thriller it intended to be.*" -- ReviewExpress.com* Posted Apr 27, 2008	Deception (2008)	11%

3/5	"What makes this movie work is Keanu Reeves' performance. For years, this actor's naysayers have complained that he shows no emotion and is one-note. They can't see the bigger picture." -- ReviewExpress.com Posted Apr 16, 2008	Street Kings (2008)	36%

3.5/5	"Plenty of things happen that adults will have to overlook and forget any reasoning because this is a movie aimed at kids, and on that point it delivers." -- ReviewExpress.com Posted Apr 8, 2008	Nim's Island (2008)	48%
3/5	"21 comes down to sense and not cents. Ben gets greedy, overlooks his principles and forgets his goal. But then again, he does dazzle!" -- ReviewExpress.com Posted Mar 30, 2008	21 (2008)	35%

4.5/5	"Although he's often over-the-top in some of his films, to his credit Carrey puts his ego aside in this movie and lets Horton be the star of the film just as he was written to be." -- ReviewExpress.com Posted Mar 15, 2008	Dr. Seuss' Horton Hears a Who! (2008)	78%
3.5/5	"*The era, costumes, sets and music make Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day* feel like a classic film of the 1930s or 40s in which comedy mixed with drama and the end came too quickly.*" -- ReviewExpress.com* Posted Mar 8, 2008	Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day (2008)	77%
3/5	"Charlie Bartlett begins as somewhat of a typical coming-of-age teen comedy, but by the second act it had me thinking it's an original idea with adult appeal." -- ReviewExpress.com Posted Feb 23, 2008	Charlie Bartlett (2007)	55%
4/5	"*A safe mix of fantasy and fright, the adventurous tale The Spiderwick Chronicles* fills a gap in solid entertainment for children and adults.*" -- ReviewExpress.com* Posted Feb 14, 2008	The Spiderwick Chronicles (2008)	79%
2/5	"Fool's Gold is like The Three Stooges meets Gilligan's Island. I did laugh a few times, mainly to keep myself awake, but there's very little funny about these cardboard characters." -- ReviewExpress.com Posted Feb 7, 2008	Fool's Gold (2008)	11%
2/5	"*Even director Gregory Hoblit couldn't transform Untraceable* from a mediocre horror movie into a compelling thriller.*" -- ReviewExpress.com* Posted Jan 24, 2008	Untraceable (2008)	15%
3/5	"Mad Money isn't intense, action-oriented nor will it win any Oscars. Still, in times when the economy and politics weight heavy on our minds, it's a great hour-and-a-half escape." -- ReviewExpress.com Posted Jan 19, 2008	Mad Money (2008)	21%
4/5	"Not only does this 50th Anniversary Edition look terrific, Fox has outdone itself with the great bonus features about Cary Grant, Deborah Kerr and Leo McCarey." -- Classic Movie Guide Posted Jan 16, 2008	An Affair to Remember (1957)	64%
5/5	"For Plainview, his veins might as well have been filled with crude oil, for he never got the taste out of his mouth. In more ways than one, for him, that toxic dream became all too vivid." -- ReviewExpress.com Posted Jan 11, 2008	There Will Be Blood (2007)	92%
4.5/5	"The Great Debaters is an amazing story, but it's the sensational direction and terrific cast that make the theme resonant." -- ReviewExpress.com Posted Jan 7, 2008	The Great Debaters (2007)	80%
4/5	"*What really sets Atonement* apart from other films is the incredible one-two punch at the end that you never see coming and might think about for days.*" -- ReviewExpress.com* Posted Dec 28, 2007	Atonement (2007)	83%
3.5/5	"It's a shame that Smith's heartfelt work and preparation doesn't pay off with better background and CGI work." -- ReviewExpress.com Posted Dec 20, 2007	I Am Legend (2007)	69%
3.5/5	"*If you can handle the blood-spurting scenes Sweeney Todd* might be a movie to check out after the glow of the holiday bulbs has dimmed.*" -- ReviewExpress.com* Posted Dec 20, 2007	Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (2007)	86%
4/5	"*To my pleasure, the delightful Enchanted* stands out in a season full of violent and drug-ridden movies.*" -- ReviewExpress.com* Posted Nov 26, 2007	Enchanted (2007)	93%
3.5/5	"Some say Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium is no Willy Wonka, but it's just as fun and much like a Dr, Seuss classic, pay attention and the story can open up an amazing new world, if only you believe!" -- ReviewExpress.com Posted Nov 17, 2007	Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium (2007)	36%
4/5	"*Antonio Pinto's brilliant score accentuates the movie's romantic elements and helps make Love in the Time of Cholera* heartfelt, amusing, pleasurable, and quite memorable.*" -- ReviewExpress.com* Posted Nov 16, 2007	Love in the Time of Cholera (2007)	28%
2/5	"Why aren't these actors helping troops' families or give injured solders jobs in movies so they can support their loved ones? No matter what side of this issue you support, standing on the sidelines and throwing stones only leads to more stone-throwing." -- ReviewExpress.com Posted Nov 11, 2007	Lions for Lambs (2007)	28%
3/5	"Suffering from a weak first act, the film really hits full steam in one eclipsed moment when Frank gets out of prison." -- ReviewExpress.com Posted Nov 4, 2007	American Gangster (2007)	79%
2.5/5	"The first time you stare into Halle Berry's iris, it's interesting; by the fifth and sixth time it's exasperating." -- ReviewExpress.com Posted Oct 29, 2007	Things We Lost in the Fire (2007)	65%
3.5/5	"The thought that my life might be turned upside down merely by someone calling me is very frightening indeed." -- ReviewExpress.com Posted Oct 29, 2007	Rendition (2007)	48%
3.5/5	"Eastern Promises is mostly predictable throughout the film, but that never diminishes the intrigue and drama of the story." -- ReviewExpress.com Posted Oct 14, 2007	Eastern Promises (2007)	88%
4/5	"*Although we've seen many films about high-profile law firms versus the average Joe, watching Michael Clayton* becomes more compelling every minute.*" -- ReviewExpress.com* Posted Oct 14, 2007	Michael Clayton (2007)	90%
4/5	"A world shrouded by danger, suspicion, and family disloyalty comprised of commonplace characters brought to life by exceptional actors." -- ReviewExpress.com Posted Oct 14, 2007	We Own The Night (2007)	55%
4/5	"The Graduate 40th Anniversary Editon reminds us of Dustin Hoffman's great talent." -- Classic Movie Guide Posted Sep 13, 2007	The Graduate (1967)	89%

3.5/5	"Jackson sheds all elements of ego and literally becomes a disheveled homeless man in appearance, with his wispy voice and his mindless emotional baggage." -- ReviewExpress.com Posted Aug 24, 2007	Resurrecting the Champ (2007)	60%
	"Thanks to its finely honed timing, hilarious one-liners, quirky characters and non-stop laughs, 'Death at a Funeral' is enormously funny." -- ReelTalk Movie Reviews Posted Aug 18, 2007	Death at a Funeral (2007)	63%
