Fame (2009) |
"...despite cliched characters and parents straight from central casting, the performance numbers are executed by some pretty talented kids and Megan Mullally and Bebe Neuwirth are intriguing as the school's singing and dance instructors." |

Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009) |
"What sets "Mr. Fox" apart from the rest of the Anderson oeuvre, apart from the talking animals, is that Anderson's writing is glossed with some wry hardboiled noir and more than a few double entendres." |

Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009) |

Far From Heaven (2002) |

Fifty Dead Men Walking (2009) |
"...the filmmakers never really make us buy that this man was so averse to violence he was willing to sell out his friends - for profit mind you - to help save the British. And yet the film really works as a political thriller." |
