Fresh 2.5/4	Fresh 69%	Everything's Gone Green (2007)	" The film exists in that familiar Douglas Coupland never never land populated by twentysomethings facing cubicle farms and shoddy romances revealed under quasi-Ikea lamps." Posted Apr 13, 2007
Rotten 1.5/4	Rotten 44%	Fay Grim (2007)	" What borders on a pleasingly intricate spy plot lead by the grimacing Parker Posey gets hopelessly tangled in the wrinkles in the story, and it all never quite pays off." Posted Jan 26, 2007
Fresh 3/4	Fresh 88%	Joe Strummer: The Future is Unwritten (2007)	" Director Julien Temple examines Strummer's life and motivations with a flair for unearthing endlessly quotable bandmates, friends, and artists who have been inspired by him." Posted Jan 26, 2007
Fresh 3/4	Fresh 94%	Casino Royale (2006)	" *Crass product placement, implausible dialogue, plot points that drag on, Casino Royale* has them all. The reason none of that really matters is Daniel Craig.**" Posted Nov 17, 2006
Fresh 3/4	Fresh 91%	Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan (2006)	" *Any movie that lists someone with the job of 'feces provider' in the credits is either going to be a disaster or one of the funniest, most outrageous films of the year. Borat* is clearly the later.**" Posted Sep 15, 2006
Fresh 3/4	Fresh 68%	Babel (2006)	" What unfolds, courtesy of Innaritu and the excellent cast, is a commentary on how the 21st century is a constantly upset balance of cultures whose every move has repercussions upon each other." Posted Sep 15, 2006
Fresh 3.5/4	Fresh 68%	Snakes on a Plane (2006)	" *Just when you settle into laughing at the stock characters and one-liners, Snakes* manages to scare the hell out of you. As the deranged crime boss says, "Woo!"**" Posted Aug 18, 2006
Rotten 2/4	Rotten 24%	The Da Vinci Code (2006)	" It fells a little silly to watch movie stars like Tom Hanks make gee whiz, awestruck pronouncements about the bloodline of Jesus Christ out loud." Posted May 19, 2006
Rotten 1.5/4	Rotten 33%	Poseidon (2006)	" *Petersen's Poseidon* is a ridiculous collection of disaster clichés, eye-rollingly obvious symbolism, and two-dimensional stereotypes.**" Posted May 11, 2006
Fresh 2/4	Fresh 83%	Somersault (2006)	" Just about everything that happens to Heidi explores that awkward cusp between adolescence and adulthood, and the film maintains a mild, interesting suspense because of it." Posted May 1, 2006
Fresh 2.5/4	Rotten 33%	The Sentinel (2006)	" *Sometimes, as in the case of The Sentinel, a good old rat-in-the-government picture that hews to the conventions of the genre can be an enjoyable, not terribly taxing entertainment.*" Posted May 1, 2006
Fresh 2.5/4	Rotten 57%	Ice Age: The Meltdown (2006)	" The sequel is satisfying for the same reason as the first movie. The sweet animals are witty, and while the physical comedy is simple, the main characters ultimately aren't." Posted Apr 13, 2006
Fresh 3/4	Rotten 59%	Lonesome Jim (2006)	" Buscemi's small story of failure, depression -- and ultimately, love -- in one Indiana town rings painfully true-to-life." Posted Apr 11, 2006
Rotten 2/4	Rotten 44%	She's The Man (2006)	" Implausible as she is, her voice-changing, artificial guy-speak, and penchant for causing fights makes the whole film fun and watchable." Posted Apr 4, 2006
Rotten 1.5/4	Rotten 27%	The Shaggy Dog (2006)	" The Shaggy Dog feels like little more than a stale rehash with a promising cast whose talents haven't been tapped." Posted Mar 28, 2006
Rotten 1.5/4	Rotten 8%	Ultraviolet (2006)	" Amid every action cliche in the book, outmoded stereotypes, and a plot derivative of every futuristic drama made in the last fifteen years, Ultraviolet comes off as nothing more than a pale copy of better, more inventive films." Posted Mar 25, 2006
Rotten 2/4	Rotten 23%	Freedomland (2005)	" *If nothing else, Freedomland* tries very hard to be a good film.**" Posted Mar 14, 2006
Fresh 2.5/5	Rotten 40%	Running Scared (2006)	" Ultimately, it is a serviceable, well-made thriller that earns its R rating." Posted Mar 14, 2006
Fresh 3/4	Fresh 92%	Our Brand Is Crisis (2005)	" This unlikely pairing of relentless U.S. pollsters and a Bolivian election is a fascinating glimpse of the Americanized marketing of international politics (and vice versa)." Posted Mar 14, 2006
Rotten 1.5/4	Rotten 6%	Big Momma's House 2 (2006)	" Just like the first film, it�s another basic, unoriginal fish-out-of-water story stocked with predictable plot twists and physical comedy." Posted Feb 21, 2006
Rotten 2.5/4	Rotten 56%	The Polar Express (2004)	" Everything is so nearly real, down to the characters' hair fluttering in the icy wind, that it's uneasily surreal, the way that clowns scare tots more than they amuse them." Posted Nov 16, 2004
Fresh 3.5/4	Fresh 88%	Chaos (2003)	" Affecting, brilliantly acted French-language drama." Posted Mar 17, 2003
Rotten .5/4	Rotten 12%	National Security (2003)	" *Dugan's predictable, thin-plotted lark reads as little more than a black guy-white guy Three's Company.*" Posted Mar 4, 2003
Fresh 2.5/4	Rotten 21%	The Hot Chick (2002)	" Basically harmless and grudgingly funny." Posted Mar 4, 2003
