Baby Mama (2008) |
"Austin Powers screen mastermind Michael McCullers is the guy behind this sorta same-sex parenting satire, as SNL's Tina Fey and Amy Poehler do an extreme odd couple for laughs duet, ripping into the burgeoning baby consumer industry." |

Babylon A.D. (2008) |
"More murky travelogue and hi-tech apocalyptic tall tale than crystal ball thriller terror ride, Babylon AD and its own destiny appear lurching toward Babylon DVD, prophetically much sooner than later." |

Bangkok Dangerous (2008) |
"A toxic blend of hitman midlife crisis, homicidal existential angst and a little surprise sex tourism on the side, this arty assassin fare is held together by sheer force of personality grim reaper guru Cage, no matter how cranky the guy can be." |
