War, Inc. (2008)
"The John Cusack 'comedy' (generic term used loosely) gives anti-war filmmaking a bad name."

Winnebago Man (2009)
"The filmmaker never makes it about him %u2014 it's clear throughout that he's onscreen because that's the most direct way to tell this story, and he wants nothing more than to serve as a conduit between what he sees and what he wants us to see. You don't"
