10% Fool's Gold
With little chemistry among the peronce upon a times, humorless gags, and a predictable storyline, Fool's Gold fails on every level.
| |
53% Traitor
Despite another reliable performance from Don Cheadle, Traitor suffers from too many cliches and an unfocused narrative.
| |
40% Death Race
Mindless, violent, and lightning-paced, Death Race is little more than an empty action romp.
| |
56% Changeling
Beautifully shot and well-acted, Changeling is a compelling story that unfortunately gives in to convention too often.
| |
12% Saw V
If its plot were as interesting as its torture devices, or its violence less painful than its performances, perhaps Saw V might not feel like it was running on fumes.
| |
75% 1408
Relying on psychological tension rather than overt violence and gore, 1408 is a genuinely creepy thriller with a strong lead performance by John Cusack.
| |
66% Quantum of Solace
Brutal and breathless, Quantum Of Solace delivers tender emotions along with frenetic action. Not as good as franchise reboot Casino Royale, but still an impressive entry to the Bond canon.

66% Zack and Miri Make a Porno

96% Pan's Labyrinth
Pan's Labyrinth is Alice in Wonderland for grown-ups, with the horrors of both reality and fantasy blended together into an extraordinary, spellbinding fable. Told through the eyes of a little girl whose imaginary world is inhabited by nightmarish creatures, Pan's Labyrinth is a visually imaginative and allegorical take on the fears she faced in Spain during WWII.

79% Dr. Seuss' Horton Hears a Who!
Horton Hears A Who! is both whimsical and heartwarming, and is the rare Dr. Seuss adaptation that stays true to the spirit of the source material.
| |
67% The Incredible Hulk
The Incredible Hulk provides the action and excitement to please comic book fans and re-ignite this fledgling franchise.
| |
9% 10,000 B.C.
With attention strictly paid to style instead of substance, or historical accuracy, 10,000 B.C. is a visually impressive but narratively flimsy epic.
| |
84% Bridge to Terabithia
Bridge to Terabithia is a faithful adaptation of a beloved children's novel and a powerful portrayal of love, loss, and imagination through children's eyes.
| |
54% We Own The Night
Bland characters, clichéd dialogue and rickety plotting ensure We Own The Night never lives up to its potential.
| |
|
5% Because I Said So
Because I Said So is an unfunny, cliche-ridden mess that manages to make Diane Keaton temporarily unlikable.
| |
18% The Invasion
The Invasion is slickly made, however it lacks psychological insight and thrills.
