The Objective (2008) |
"Blair Witch's co-mastermind Myrick teams with co-screenwriter Wes Clark Jr., son of the retired general for, well, Blair Witch In Burkas. And extraterrestrial Afghans as villains or village idiots, take your pick. Close Encounters Of The Imperialist Kind." |

Observe and Report (2009) |
"Lets it all hang out, and we're not talking danglingly plot threads. And the wicked humor never lets up, as the tone deliciously darkens just when it seems there's nowhere left to go. Better than Blart and Dirtier Than Harry." |

Obsessed (2009) |
"Obsessed: Bottle blonde sexpot in heat with boundary issues on McMansion home invasion spree, with alpha male power as the ultimate female aphrodisiac. All that's missing is the stained blue dress. I did not have sex with that woman, she had sex with me." |

Offside (2006) |
"From the Western perspective, the feisty protagonists' predicament might seem silly, until it gradually sinks in that this treatment is business as usual in a backward land that seems to have gotten stuck in the Middle Ages. Alley Oop lives!" |

Oral Fixation (2009) |

The Order of Myths (2008) |
