I Can't Think Straight (2008)

"Talk of Middle East politics seems out of place in a lesbian discovery tale, a fact reinforced by the cast, who look as though they're trying to pass kidney stones when the dialogue wanders to the news page."

Brian Orndorf

I Hate Valentine's Day (2009)

"By the time the end credits hit, there's joy emerging not from the outcome of the Genevieve/Greg romantic tango, but the feeling of relief to know the film, and Vardalos's insipid direction, has finally come to a close."

Brian Orndorf

I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell (2009)

"If anything positive can come from this film, it might be the mass acceptance of gay marriage across the land. After all, if Tucker Max symbolizes where heterosexuality is headed, perhaps the alternative is worth a shot."

I Love You, Beth Cooper (2009)

"Perhaps Columbus was involved in a hideous car accident recently that left him brain damaged, or maybe tragic senility is creeping up on the 51-year-old filmmaker. I refuse to believe he willingly created something this monstrously unfunny."

Brian Orndorf

B+

I Love You, Man (2009)

"A gracious comedy that handles itself well on the subjects of broheem friendships, self-worth, and Lou Ferrigno's sleeper hold. Any worn-out plot mechanics need not apply."

Brian Orndorf

Tomato
B

Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs (2009)

"A relaxed mood, a playful cast, and a plot that doesn't sweat itself into a pointless sense of importance, "Dawn" is mild sauce but tremendously entertaining, with an easy-peasy celebratory attitude that extends to the picture's lively 3-D visual scheme."

Imagine That (2009)

"At this point, there's no room left on Murphy's career coffin for another nail, so consider Imagine That the first shovelful of dirt."

Brian Orndorf

Tomato
A-

In the Loop (2009)

"An acidic force of nature, confident with brutal exchanges of opinion, yet retains a cutting satirical curve that buttresses the film's undeniable pull toward outright silliness."

Brian Orndorf

Tomato
B

The Incredible Hulk (2008)

"It's hard to remember cries for dramatic nourishment when Hulk is getting pelted with a swarm of bullets, dodging fireballs, and breaking police cars in half for use as boxing gloves."

Brian Orndorf

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008)

"When Kingdom rears back and delivers the goods, the result will reduce the average Indy fan to pudding. The film should offer a new pair of pants with every ticket."

Brian Orndorf

Tomato
A

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989)

"Last Crusade is pure kicks, and I would never fault this spunky blast of quips and near-misses for trying to vanilla its way back into the hearts of millions."

Brian Orndorf

C

The Informant! (2009)

"He's never been one to indulge, but there once was a time when Soderbergh was able to please. Sadly, The Informant! never earns its exclamation point. It's more of an ellipses motion picture."

Brian Orndorf

Splat
C-

The Informers (2009)

"The Informers is a beautiful picture of misery, but the surface quality is never penetrated to satisfaction. In the end, it's a mess of smeary mascara, mix tapes, and hair mousse in search of connective tissue."

Brian Orndorf

Tomato
A

Inglourious Basterds (2009)

"It's a patient, layered, stupefying doozy of a motion picture. Once again Tarantino has come to bend the staples of cinema, and the results are characteristically spectacular."

Brian Orndorf

Splat
D+

Inkheart (2009)

"Inkheart feels as though it has been pulled apart and put back together several times over, leading to a viewing experience that's equal parts bewilderment and tedium."

Brian Orndorf

Splat
C+

The International (2009)

"A handsome thriller, just not a riveting one, turning the potential for an unsettling thrill ride with real-world ramifications into a passable nail-biter more interested in the art of protracted conversation than portioning out punches."

Brian Orndorf

Tomato
B+

Into Temptation (2009)

"Sharply constructed with a heavy spray of noirish aroma, Temptation is a uniquely accomplished indie film, wielding salacious material sensitively, building an intoxicating sense of intrigue and discomfort."

Brian Orndorf

Splat
C-

The Invention of Lying (2009)

"Lying is about love, with Gervais and Robinson scripting a lazy McConaugheyesque wedding break-up scenario for an ending (cue the Supertramp!), which plays it awfully safe considering the rest of the film has the seeds to noogie organized religion."

Brian Orndorf

Tomato
B-

Invictus (2009)

"May not provide a challenging, electrifying night at the movies, but it's sturdily constructed from top to bottom, depicting a benevolent story of racial discord and nationwide unification in an agreeably comfy, Eastwoodian manner."

Brian Orndorf

Tomato
B+

Iron Man (2008)

"Superheroes have been young, mutated, and alien, but they're rarely fortysomething billionaires with a taste for one-night-stands, metallurgy, and scotch. Perhaps this is why Iron Man is so effective."

Brian Orndorf

Splat
C-

Is Anybody There? (2009)

"Crowley is heading for a note of sympathy with this stuttering tale of universal heartache, but without needed substance and focus, there's nothing to emotionally devour."

Brian Orndorf

Tomato
A

It Might Get Loud (2009)

"A spectacular valentine to the gale force rush of music appreciation. Loud is contagious fun, informative and inspirational. Multiply the bliss by 1000 if you happen to be a fan of any of these men."

Brian Orndorf
