Mad Men - Season 1 (2007)

"Chicago TV critic Dustin Levell of HollywoodChicago.com analyzes season two and calls Mad Men the easiest sell on TV today."

Adam Fendelman

Splat
2/5

Mad Money (2008)

"Whenever there's stunt-movie casting with divergent generations of Hollywood "stars," there's bound to be trouble at the multiplex."

Adam Fendelman

Tomato
3/5

Mamma Mia! (2008)

"While it'd be embellishment to say you'd have the time of your life, any dancing queen or an admirer of seeing Pierce Brosnan croon a tune instead of trigger James Bond destruction can at least have some of the time of your 108 minutes."

Adam Fendelman

Tomato
4.5/5

Man On Wire (2008)

"The story that looks back at the incident plays like a great caper film. The operation to get into the tower and string the wire was a combination of ingenuity, planning and exquisite timing since the top of the building was still a construction site."

Adam Fendelman

Tomato
4/5

Married Life (2008)

"There is a lightness and whimsy from the animated opening credits to the bright and explicit glamour of its 1949 world. While the narrative doesn't exactly wink at the camera, it certainly doesn't wallow in what could have been very dark material."

Adam Fendelman

Splat
2.5/5

Meet Dave (2008)

"The subplot in Meet Dave is too complicated for a film of this type. It drags the entire story down with it. However, this did give the screenwriters an excuse to camp up the situation."

Adam Fendelman

Tomato
4/5

Michael Clayton (2007)

"Michael Clayton is the adult antidote to a torrent of monotonous gobbledygook devoid of poignant messaging."

Adam Fendelman

Tomato
4/5

Michael Jackson's This Is It (2009)

"Even a rhythmless zombie will be able to siphon Michael Jackson's prowess now. And this time, this is it. If you thought the king of pop wouldn't deliver on his latest bout of 50 sold-out worldwide concerts, think again."

Adam Fendelman

Tomato
4.0/5.0

Milk (2008)

"Just as Tom Hanks put a face to AIDS in 1993's Philadelphia, Sean Penn has now put a face to gay rights as Harvey Milk in the new Gus Van Sant true-story film Milk."

Adam Fendelman

Tomato
4/5

Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day (2008)

"Character comedies that actually have some depth and fun are as rare as boobs without silicone in Hollywood. Miss Pettigrew reaches these heights with a sensibility of an old studio picture with stylized glamour, lovable rogues and McDormand."

Adam Fendelman

Tomato
3/5

Mister Lonely (2008)

"The film has a delicate and deliberate pace. While all the characters could be assigned symbolic motivations, most just seem like annoying and self-indulgent jokes within director Harmony Korine's eccentric point of view."

Adam Fendelman

Splat

Monsters vs. Aliens (2009)

"It looks good, has some talented people behind the mic, and is visually engaging, but there's nothing memorable about the script at all. The 3D may pop, but the story is flat."

Brian Tallerico

Splat
2/5

Mr. Woodcock (2007)

"Just from eyeing the Mr. Woodcock movie poster, you could suspect exactly what the movie will be. Just 90 minutes later, your suspicions would be confirmed."

Adam Fendelman

Splat
2/5

The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor (2008)

"This threequel is so hackneyed that even star Brendan Fraser wasn't enough to sell audiences on a third return. Even Jet Li couldn't save the day."

Adam Fendelman

Splat
2/5

Music Within (2007)

"Second-time director Steven Sawalich's "music" presumably still resides inside him because it doesn't resound in his Music Within message movie."

Adam Fendelman

Tomato

Must Read After My Death (2009)

"A riveting, fly-on-the-wall documentary using only silent home movies and audio recordings of a family in steep, depressing decline."

Brian Tallerico

Tomato
3.5/5

My Blueberry Nights (2008)

"Ornamental details like cigarette smoking and messy handwriting keep the settings tight and constrictive. Still, there's awkward shakiness that's fortified with interjections of high-volume, often-distracting soundtrack."

Adam Fendelman

Tomato
4.5/5

My Winnipeg (2008)

"This is an achingly beautiful film full of black-and-white images working as both stark reality and soft-focus dreams. Maddin contemplates the far-off sense of leaving Winnipeg and seeks renewal through an anti-nostalgic look back at it."

Adam Fendelman
