Tomato
B

Man On Wire (2008)

"Much of Marsh's focus is on the practical details and build up of the caper, but the last third stretches out for poetic resonance."

Amy Nicholson

Tomato
B-

Management (2009)

"Zahn specializes in playing overgrown children. His face is both old and young--he must have looked the same at 9 as he will at 90"

Amy Nicholson

Splat
B-

Married Life (2008)

"Sachs and Moverman have scripted a potboiler, but unwisely kept the lid on. Their intent is wry philosophical detachment; the effect is a biting social satire gone soggy."

Amy Nicholson

Splat
C

The Merry Gentleman (2009)

"We're always aware of watching characters--not people--languish through the usual indie ennui."

Amy Nicholson

Tomato
B-

The Messenger (2009)

"Harrelson's calm performance anchors the film, and whenever the story drifts back to him and his cautious friendship with Foster, the flick feels true."

Amy Nicholson

Tomato
B+

Michael Clayton (2007)

"Clooney's glamorous intelligence is deepened by his constant hints that slickness, like corporate integrity, is just an act."

Amy Nicholson

Tomato
A-

Milk (2008)

"Penn and director Gus Van Sant play Milk's sexual orientation with candor that never dips into cartoonishness -- it's refreshing and true and manly"

Amy Nicholson

Tomato
B

Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day (2008)

"The screwball comedy's charm verges on frothy wish fulfillment, but gets anchored by Amy Adams' refusal to play shallow"

Amy Nicholson

Splat
C

Missing Person (2009)

"Michael Shannon is a handsome kook whose turns in Revolutionary Road, Bug and this have earmarked him to be the next Jack Nicholson (or at least the next Christopher Walken)"

Amy Nicholson

Tomato
B-

Mister Lonely (2008)

"Harmony Korine's films thrive on uncertain ground. Exiting the theater, you're never more aware that ten people can sit next to each other but see ten different films."

Amy Nicholson

Splat
C

Mongol (2008)

"Lacking great themes and inner depth, Mongol is just another galloping wondershow of ice blue skies and rocky plains, a light diversion with delusions of grandeur"

Amy Nicholson

Tomato
B-

Moon (2009)

"This is Rockwell's movie."

Amy Nicholson

Tomato
B-

More Than a Game (2009)

"Like a gambler with an inside bet, you can know the final score, but still enjoy every second of the game."

Amy Nicholson

Splat
2/5

La Mujer de mi Hermano (2006)

"90 minutes of wheezing emotional flare-ups, played with such straight-faced sobriety that I wanted to slap these people and tell them all to lighten up"

Jay Antani

Splat
C

The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor (2008)

"Technically, Jet Li's Emperor Han is pottery not putrification -- he's such stuff as Pier 1's are made of -- but that doesn't stop this franchise from resurrecting a third sequel."

Amy Nicholson

Tomato
A-

Must Read After My Death (2009)

"Like other family doc gothics, the heart of the suburbs is-gasp!-black as bile; unlike them, however, this has a strong female voice that gives us chills from beyond the grave"

Amy Nicholson

Splat
D+

My Blueberry Nights (2008)

"Wai fills the void with pointless slow-mo shots while pushing his real talent to commit over-acting hara-kiri with syrupy drawls and nonsense perspectives"

Amy Nicholson

Tomato
A

My Kid Could Paint That (2007)

"A fascinating exploration of art, creativity, and family dynamics that takes an unexpected right hook."

Amy Nicholson

Splat
D

My Life in Ruins (2009)

"Vardalos huffs that the culture that made her a millionaire is made of slackers, molesters and thieves."

Amy Nicholson

Splat
C+

My One and Only (2009)

"This is a trifle too sweet to dip as dark as despair -- at worst, we know Anne will learn self-reliance."

Amy Nicholson

Splat
C-

The Mysteries of Pittsburgh (2009)

"Too busy for three mediocre movies? Watch this gonzo drama -- a coming-of-age Mafia bisexual love triangle that's simultaneously bizarre and trite."

Amy Nicholson
