Splat 2/4	Mad Money (2008)	"[A] pointless payday for director Khourie's banal blank check comedy...a straining pseudo-hysterical heist flick that has all the giddy appeal of an empty bank draft."	Frank Ochieng
Tomato 4/4	Taxi to the Dark Side (2008)	"Utterly engrossing and captivating in its inquisitive scope. Provocative and polarizing, Taxi invites us to eavesdrop on a movement of mistrust and mischievous mayhem"	Frank Ochieng
Tomato 3/4	Tre (2008)	"...absorbing, mysterious, lyrical and distinctively titillating...a moody masterpiece that is thrillingly alarming...[a] tale of wandering hedonism and anguish"	Frank Ochieng
Splat 2/4	Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins (2008)	"Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins feels like a rudimentary retread of previously outrageous "black attack" farces... needlessly cluttered, unfocused and pointless..."	Frank Ochieng
Tomato 2.5/4	30 Days of Night (2007)	"Bleak, bombastic and belligerent, Slade's blood-busting bohemians will indeed take a caustic chunk out of your imaginative horrifying souls."	Frank Ochieng
Splat 2/4	Across the Universe (2007)	"Somehow, the Beatles' precious diamonds are glaringly missing from Lucy's sky if not in Julie's unevenly charismatic but cluttered and customary Universe."	Frank Ochieng
Tomato 3/4	American Gangster (2007)	"American Gangster dares to look in the menacing mirror and reflect the scabrous priorities that define some handsomely yet disillusion others hauntingly."	Frank Ochieng
Tomato 3/4	The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (2007)	"Aside from the movie's mouthful title, this [is a] contemplative and carousing exposition. [The] prairie-induced pathos is plenty to digest with absolute reverence."	Frank Ochieng
Splat 2/4	Bee Movie (2007)	"A spelling bee. A busy bee. A killer bee. But a Seinfeld bee? Sorry Jerry, your hapless honey-seeking hero doesn't create much of an animated buzz."	Frank Ochieng
Splat 2/4	The Brave One (2007)	"Jordan's Brave delves into a showy yet sluggish crime drama that incorporates all the cliched parts of a fatalistic fantasy audiences have seen over and over."	Frank Ochieng
Splat 1.5/4	The Comebacks (2007)	"Let's face it, folks...we need another repetitive spoof movie like a piglet needs dirty fingernails...never registers beyond aping its lazy connect-the-dots jocularity."	Frank Ochieng
Tomato 3.5/4	Control (2007)	"[An] intimate look at a tragic footnote in entertainment. A moody yet strangely melodic concoction about creativity and confusion in an overwhelming abyss of artistic isolation"	Frank Ochieng
Tomato 2.5/4	Dan in Real Life (2007)	"Heartwarming, quirky and quietly affecting...the overall package is peppered with an easy-going dosage of reflective schmaltz...warm, inviting and actively spirited..."	Frank Ochieng
Splat 2/4	Feast of Love (2007)	"Feast does nothing concrete to make us embrace this uneven romancer that has all the giddy spirit of a melted box of chocolates."	Frank Ochieng
Splat 2/4	The Final Season (2007)	"Inspirational but overly cliched with its pseudo-earnestness...In short, this heartland-based hokum about a high school baseball team is definitely corn off the cob."	Frank Ochieng
Splat 2/4	The Game Plan (2007)	"Sappy and simplistic, The Game Plan belongs on the sidelines of stale cotton candy creativity."	Frank Ochieng
Tomato 3/4	Gone Baby Gone (2007)	"[A] tortured morality play that takes place on the salacious sidewalks where bluebloods and bombastic blue-collared souls equally pound the pavement in cynical unity."	Frank Ochieng
Splat 1.5/4	Good Luck Chuck (2007)	"[A] fetid romantic comedy...In short, if it weren't for bad Luck then the chump Chuck wouldn't have any cinematic luck at all."	Frank Ochieng
Splat 1.5/4	The Heartbreak Kid (2007)	"The Farrellys' The Heartbreak Kid is a seemingly sketchy and erratic farce that begs for some of the wayward cinematic siblings' trademark outlandish quirkiness."	Frank Ochieng
Tomato 3/4	Juno (2007)	"Cunningly perceptive and hip in its irresistible skepticism about the comforts and uncertainties of love, Juno is enchantingly bright and breezy in its effecting resonance."	Frank Ochieng
Splat 2/4	Margot at the Wedding (2007)	"Synthetically dull, manipulative and emotionally clunky, Baumbach's mawkish melodrama is a pretentious and garrulous character study that sits idly in its moping gibberish."	Frank Ochieng
Tomato 3/4	A Mighty Heart (2007)	"Absorbingly touching and terrifying, A Mighty Heart is an intimate film but has the gutsy and reflective ingredients of sorrow, introspection and outrage."	Frank Ochieng
Splat 2/4	Rendition (2007)	"...housing top-notch actors and their hefty paychecks but nothing else beyond the obviousness of the melodramatic malarkey it spouts with empty conviction."	Frank Ochieng
Splat 1.5/4	Resident Evil: Extinction (2007)	"Extinction is basically a robotic and wretched screen-sized visual video game that never challenges or stimulates the audience's rush for genuine outrageous freakiness."	Frank Ochieng
Splat 1.5/4	Saw IV (2007)	"Stultifying in its pseudo-sensationalistic schlock, this numbingly and nightmarish narrative has no legitimate creepy conviction beyond flexing its meaningless, morose muscles"	Frank Ochieng
Splat 2/4	The Seeker (2007)	"Cunningham's scope is myopic and minimal in a mystical yet meandering piece of malarkey that masquerades as a long-winded Tolkien treasure hunt for teenage thrill-seekers."	Frank Ochieng
Tomato 3.5/4	Starting Out in the Evening (2007)	"Wagner's penetrating narrative is poetically stimulating in its smart approach to its dialogue-driven excellence and standout performances."	Frank Ochieng
Tomato 3/4	Things We Lost in the Fire (2007)	"Surprisingly, this insightful tearjerker is padded with expressive layers well beyond the average made-for-television sentiments because of the penetrating performances."	Frank Ochieng
Tomato 3/4	Tyler Perry's Why Did I Get Married? (2007)	"Lyrical and reflective, Married is an entertaining inquiry into that everlasting hunt for elusive marital bliss and the empty-hearted casualties that are all too familiar with its unpredictability."	Frank Ochieng
Splat 2/4	We Own The Night (2007)	"A sluggishly regurgitation of the noteworthy 70's-style cop dramas. The nocturnal naughtiness behind Gray's mean streets saga begs for a compelling ounce of creative daylight"	Frank Ochieng
