Tomato
3.5/5

Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa (2008)

"Punches its key themes of friendship, togetherness and family amid a hyperactive swirl of jokes, musical numbers and physical gags."

Jim Schembri

Splat
2.5/5

Make It Happen (2008)

"It's hard to dislike all these urban musicals aimed at teenage girls, and even harder to tell them apart."

Jake Wilson

Tomato
4/4

Man On Wire (2008)

"It's a hell of a story, and Petit is a mesmerising storyteller, with an extravagantly poetic turn of phrase and the glittering eye of the Ancient Mariner."

Jake Wilson

Tomato
4/4

Man On Wire (2008)

"Marsh stitches his story together with a seamless melding of interviews, stills, re-enactments and archival footage augmented by a wonderful score by Michael Nyman and the New York composer J. Ralph."

Sandra Hall

Tomato
3/5

Mao's Last Dancer (2009)

"Beresford does make absolutely sure the big themes central to Cunxin's journey ring out loudly enough to strike those heart strings at which he is so clearly and shamelessly taking aim."

Jim Schembri

Tomato
2.5/5

Marley & Me (2008)

"Wilson may always appear a little too flaky to be bankable as a romantic lead, but set Aniston aside and this could be the purest love story he'll ever get."

Jake Wilson

Tomato
5/5

Mary and Max (2009)

"Only long after the film, and with considerable effort, do you have to remind yourself that what you went all weak-kneed and misty-eyed over was a blob of plasticine -- a superbly directed blob of plasticine."

Jim Schembri

Tomato
3/5

Max Payne (2008)

"Though the film's action scenes won't win awards for originality, they can't be faulted for either their scale or love of slo-mo."

Jim Schembri

Tomato
3.5/5

Michael Jackson's This Is It (2009)

" Respectful without being mawkish or sentimental, the film is fashioned with the heart Jackson always demanded of himself. It's not a great film, but This Is It is a fabulously entertaining account of somebody striving to be so one last time."

Jim Schembri

Tomato
4/5

Milk (2008)

"The film itself can be taken as an act of testimony, mingling archival footage with re-enactments and immediacy with nostalgia."

Jake Wilson

Tomato
3/5

Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day (2008)

"Director, Bharat Nalluri, keeps the comedy humming while unpacking Pettigrew's sad back story."

Jim Schembri

Tomato
2.5/5

Mongol (2008)

"Temudgin is so single-minded that Asano has trouble suggesting much about his inner life."

Jake Wilson

Tomato

Monsters vs. Aliens (2009)

"Since this is a film for children, we know with virtual certainty that nobody we care about will come to harm. But there's no reason this deft fantasy shouldn't appeal to adults as well."

Jake Wilson

Splat
2/5

Moon (2009)

"By halfway the film starts to feel like a mere exercise, one more effort to get maximum value from limited resources. Too much machinery, not enough dread."

Jake Wilson

Tomato
3/5

The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor (2008)

"It's usually advisable to arrive for a film before it starts, but if you happen to be running late for this enjoyably brainless blockbuster, do not worry."

Jim Schembri

Tomato
3.5/5

My Best Friend's Girl (2008)

"Dane Cook proves why he is one of American comedy's favourite big-time naughty boys in this fast, funny, foul-tongued but sweet-natured adult-skewed romantic comedy."

Jim Schembri

Tomato

My Bloody Valentine 3D (2009)

"Blending ample serves of gore and nudity with a dash of self-awareness, Lussier skilfully uses the 3D format to simulate the perspectives of both predator and victim..."

Jake Wilson

Tomato
3/4

My Blueberry Nights (2008)

"As visually lush and distinctive and enveloping as you would expect from a Wong Kar-wai film, with space for performances that have impact."

Philippa Hawker

Splat
2.5/5

My Brother Is An Only Child (2006)

"Fast-paced, well-acted and acute about sibling rivalry, the film nonetheless fails to leave a strong impression."

Jake Wilson

Tomato
2.5/5

My Life in Ruins (2009)

"The film contains a constant stream of lowbrow gags and pratfalls as Georgia lurches her way towards happiness, romance and a secure job in the Grecian tourist trade. It's lightweight, inoffensive fluff."

Jim Schembri

Tomato
3/5

My Sister's Keeper (2009)

"Bring the tissues. This film works."

Jim Schembri

Tomato

My Year Without Sex (2009)

"Watt strives to cram a great deal into a small space, but her special triumph is that the strain never shows. My Year Without Sex stands as the most accomplished Australian film so far this year."

Jake Wilson
