|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Eastern Promises - R | Viggo Mortensen breaks out some balls-to-the-wall action in this family friendly romance-sci-fi crowdpleaser. | May 1, 2008 | N/A | |||
| Alive - R | What starts off as an interesting psychological thriller ends up being a exposition-heavy sci-fi mess. Earns one star for being the first film to undergo the patented Cool Shite "Preparation H" treatment. | April 22, 2008 | N/A | |||
| The Spiderwick Chronicles - PG | Fun without being too dumb and solidly entertaining, even more so if you're a kid trapped in an adult body. | April 21, 2008 | N/A | |||
| Lars and the Real Girl - PG-13 | Bleak and sweet, where the girl who plays "Bianca" proves that less really is more. | April 14, 2008 | N/A | |||
| Vantage Point - PG-13 | All plot in service of the device. Laughable dialogue, but at least potus remains in hand. | April 7, 2008 | N/A | |||
| Primal Fear - R | Solid. | April 1, 2008 | N/A | |||
| Appleseed Saga: Ex Machina - Unrated | Incredible to look at, with hints at depth. Loses the plot to hyperbole at the end, but by the time you get there you're ready for massive explosions and nudity. Well, you get explosions at least. Woo!!! | April 1, 2008 | N/A | |||
| Planet Terror (Grindhouse Presents: Robert Rodriguez's Planet Terror) - R | Gooey fun! | March 18, 2008 | N/A | |||
| Ravenous - R | Adequately filling, but ultimately unsatisfying. | March 12, 2008 | N/A | |||
| Justice League: The New Frontier - Unrated | Great style, and fantastic setting, but too many characters and not enough time to flesh them out before everything blows up good. | March 4, 2008 | N/A | |||
| Deep Rising - R | A much more accurate retelling of the Titanic myth you will not find. Unfairly snubbed at the Oscars due to "that OTHER Titanic" movie." | March 2, 2008 | N/A | |||
| The Night Listener - R | Convoluted and dull. You'll be forgiven for fast forwarding to the end after the "twist" is revealed 40 minutes in. | March 2, 2008 | N/A | |||
| Superbad - R | How the filmmakers convinced people this was funny is the genius trick. | March 2, 2008 | N/A | |||
| Run Fatboy Run - PG-13 | Entirely predictable, but essentially charming. | February 21, 2008 | N/A | |||
| Hollywoodland - R | Affleck gets to do something interesting for a change. Adrien Brody however, pwns as a gumshoe. He should be a gumshoe in every film, ever. | February 20, 2008 | N/A | |||
| Jumper - PG-13 | The title describes the plot - it can't settle on anything and jumps all over the place. Thin and disappointing, as the concept is terrific and deserved so much more. | February 16, 2008 | N/A | |||
| Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street - R | Macabre, made all the more unsettling with the musical numbers. | February 12, 2008 | N/A | |||
| Cloverfield - PG-13 | Intense and rewarding - less really IS more. | January 25, 2008 | N/A | |||
| [Rec] - R | A new spin on a tired genre, with some very eerie scenes, natural actors, and inventive use of the handheld format. REC... commended! | January 23, 2008 | N/A | |||
| 1408 - PG-13 | 1408 succeeds really well at sucking harder than a barely legal teen at a cock convention. All the stars are for Cusak's performance. As a cynical writer, he pulls it off brilliantly - just like the aforementioned barely legal teen. Seriously, I've seen pornos that are scarier than this claptrap. | January 20, 2008 | N/A | |||
| Return to the House on Haunted Hill - R | One star for showing us what Del Tarrant's up to these days. Another half for being a somewhat nonchalant way to spend under 90 minutes, though more predictable than one of my reviews. | January 18, 2008 | N/A | |||
| Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer - PG | Shiny. | January 13, 2008 | N/A | |||
| The Number 23 - R |
OMG WTF!!! We even went to bed at 00:23 after seeing this movie! HOLY FUCK ON A STICK!!!11!!11one!11one!1!21!!3!!11one!!!! Anyway, that's 2 stars out of 5 leaving 3 stars unfilled... that's 23... ah fuck!!! |
January 13, 2008 | N/A | |||
| Tenacious D in: The Pick of Destiny - R | With talents like KG and JB behind this, it's a mystery as to why it ended up so mediocre. An extra .5 for having Ronnie James Dio sing out of a friggin' POSTER... just like he used to when I was a teenager. | January 12, 2008 | N/A | |||
| Disturbia - PG-13 | The only thing disturbing about this is the predictability of the plot, but the charisma and chemistry of all involved pulled me in. Very watchable, though less taxing than a game of Connect Four with only red bits. | January 12, 2008 | N/A |
