Splat 2.5/5	The Baader Meinhof Complex (2009)	"To do full justice to this fascinating subject, you'd need a director with something like Martin Scorsese's appetite for detail, capacity for spectacle, and willingness to face up to his own ambivalence."	Jake Wilson
Splat 2/4	Baby Mama (2008)	"An under-achieving, lightweight movie that settles for a few competent gags and doesn't bother to take risks."	Philippa Hawker
Splat 2.5/5	Babylon A.D. (2008)	"It's as though the film's final act was accidentally deleted on the digital editing console."	Jim Schembri
Splat 1.5/5	Bandslam (2009)	"A tedious, predictable tale about following your dreams and being yourself."	Jim Schembri
Tomato 4/5	Beautiful Kate (2009)	"Helps redress a long-standing problem with Australian cinema by illustrating how fully developed, emotionally driven, three-act stories result in films that immerse you in their visions."	Jim Schembri
Tomato 3/5	Beverly Hills Chihuahua (2008)	"Actually better than its premise and its trailer might lead you to expect."	Philippa Hawker
Tomato 4/4	Beyond Our Ken (2007)	"Strongly recommended."	Jim Schembri
Splat 2/4	Bitter & Twisted (2008)	"Noni Hazelhurst and Steve Rodgers are very good, but there really is only so much moping one can stand."	Jim Schembri
Tomato 2/4	The Black Balloon (2008)	"A writer-director portrays life with an autistic brother to heartwarming effect."	Jake Wilson
Tomato 4/5	Blessed (2009)	"Blessed is a rich, unsettling vision of the mother-child relationship, By the end, it is clear that things are not always as they seem. Sometimes it's a reversal of expectations, sometimes an unpredictable consequence."	Philippa Hawker
Tomato 3.5/5	The Boat That Rocked (2009)	"An energetic, semi-farcical comedy romp blessed with a great ensemble cast, some gloriously tasteless jokes and a soundtrack of period hits."	Jim Schembri
Splat 2.5/5	Body of Lies (2008)	"Some show is made of plunging the viewer into a dense cloud of moral ambiguity, but this is mostly smoke and mirrors: while the American heroes may employ some dubious tactics, the justice of their cause is never in doubt."	Jake Wilson
Tomato 3.5/5	Bolt (2008)	"The perfect holiday movie follow-on for those kids and kidults still high on the comic buzz of Madagascar 2."	Jim Schembri
Splat 1/4	Bonneville (2006)	"A film full of emotional false notes, bad dialogue and cardboard characters..."	Jim Schembri
Tomato 3.5/5	Bottle Shock (2008)	"Rickman is priceless as the self-parodying wine snob, stealing every scene he is in by continually pulling the rug from under himself."	Jim Schembri
Splat 2/5	The Box (2009)	"Regrettably, and despite a lot of effects -- including those watery tentacles he seems so fond of -- Kelly delivers a Big Reveal that is, frankly, boring."	Jim Schembri
Tomato 4/5	The Boys Are Back (2009)	"This beautifully etched, deeply moving drama about single fatherhood [is] the best film Adelaide director Scott Hicks has made since Shine -- and the peak of Clive Owen's acting career"	Jim Schembri
Tomato 3.5/5	Bride Wars (2009)	"[A] funny, self-consciously frothy piece of good-natured escapism."	Jim Schembri
Splat 2/5	Brideshead Revisited (2008)	"Directed by Julian Jarrold from a script by Andrew Davies and Jeremy Brock, this new adaptation adroitly condenses Waugh's plot while eliminating or reversing most of his intended meanings."	Jake Wilson
Tomato 3/5	Broken Embraces (2009)	"Spain's best-known living director Pedro Almodovar ranks among the modern masters of melodrama -- as he demonstrates once again in Broken Embraces"	Jake Wilson
Tomato 3/5	The Brothers Bloom (2009)	"This is the kind of "movie movie" that puts everything in quotation marks, letting Johnson indulge his most romantic daydreams."	Jake Wilson
Splat 2.5/5	Bruno (2009)	"It can be entertaining, in a scattergun way. But its most extreme moments feel forced rather than revealed. Even its over-the-top finale, with echoes of Borat's rodeo escapade, seems over-calculated this time around."	Philippa Hawker
