  1. Leatherheads
    Leatherheads is as trifling as Clooney’s second movie (“Good Night and Good Luck”) was significant, but that’s okay. It succeeds where so many other romantic comedies fail because of a superior script and because everyone involved has the good sense not to take themselves too seriously.
  2. The Ruins
    There are a handful of intense sequences and a few scenes of squirm-inducing gore in The Ruins, but not much else.
  3. Flawless
    Over all though, this is a first rate caper piece elevated by Caine’s effortlessly elegant portrayal. The movie is wall to wall with pompous, sexist, greedy backstabbers and it’s a hoot to watch Hobbs mop the floor with the lot of them.

    Run, Fatboy, Run
    Schwimmer impresses with this film.
    • 32 Metascore

    Chapter 27
    From what I can tell, the film is generally accurate regarding the events of Dec. 8. But I got as much out of it as I did by looking up Chapman on Wikipedia.
  6. Stop-Loss
    Stop-Loss is a bit uneven. Mixed messages abound.

    Superhero Movie
    What's shocking about Superhero Movie is not that it's been advertised to death on Nickelodeon to impressionable children, but that it's a completely on-the-nose satire of "Spider-Man.”
  8. Drillbit Taylor
    There was a movie called “My Bodyguard” about the new kid in high school who hires the sullen loner to protect him from a bully. That was good. Drillbit Taylor is shit but, hey, I’m in Judd Apatow’s Hollywood.

    The Grand
    The Grand is a fast and furious comedic attack that begs to be seen again. There’s just so much going on, it’s nearly impossible to keep up.
  10. Doomsday
    As a guilty pleasure, it’s spectacularly entertaining

    Horton Hears a Who!
    Even if Horton's world can't shine like Whoville, this movie's visuals keeps things vivid, while digital animation is so often crisp, precise, and cold.
    • 39 Metascore

    Never Back Down
    About as bland, predictable, and self-important as you’d expect.
    • 40 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Sleepwalking
    It’s a shame that this film’s star-studded cast wasn’t able to save the mediocre storyline.
  14. Funny Games (2008)
    By and large, reviewers have conceded that the picture is exceptionally gripping and suspenseful while deriding its moral subtext as a crock. The only explanation possible for such fuming pettiness, in my opinion, is the fact that Michael Haneke isn’t one of us.

    10,000 BC
    What chaps my hide more is that I've seen 10,000 BC. I've seen it three times in the last year and a half. Except in the one that I saw, it centered instead on Mayans, was mostly historically accurate, and was called "Apocalypto."
  16. The Bank Job
    The Bank Job secures the viewer’s attention pretty quickly and does not relinquish that hold for a second.

    College Road Trip
    Undeniably fun for the kids, though it requires a camp sensibility in its adult audience. But in doing so, it is a warm return to the live-action Disney movies of yesteryear.
  18. Married Life
    Despite the cast's capable portrayals, it's difficult to connect with or care about any of these characters as, one by one, each stabs another in the back.

    Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day
    Plays like a breeze and ends before we know it. In the current state of cinema, all we can hope for is one like this per year.
  20. Paranoid Park
    The chief triumph here, it seems to me though, is one of style over substance. The disaffected kids who shuffle through its universe have nothing to say, nothing to tell us. I’m not sure the movie has a whole lot more.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Snow Angels
    With a deep understanding of his characters, Green has crafted a film that's devastating and uplifting without sounding a false note.
  22. City of Men
    Some might perceive City of Men as a slow film, while others could reasonably argue that Morelli is taking more time to develop characters.

    Chicago 10
    The movie stylishly portrays the story of the Chicago Seven with archival footage and animated sequences. Without reference to or retrospection from the present, Morgen crafts a film that is as pertinent as ever.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 10 Critic Score
    The Other Boleyn Girl
    The falling blade is the only element not missing the mark in this film. I wanted to call for the beheading after Act One, and spare the audience instead.
    • 48 Metascore

    Penelope
    An extraordinarily charming movie.
  26. Semi-Pro
    As Ferrell’s films go, Semi-Pro is, honestly, pretty damn boring.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The Unforeseen
    Dunn does an incredible job of condensing this extremely complex battle into a story that is simple and understandable, as well as extremely compelling.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The Signal
    If you’re tired of zombie films or rabid people films, Signal is like a cool drink of water on a hot day. It’s got all the goodness from the best of those genres while creating its own niche at the same time.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 10 Critic Score
    Be Kind Rewind
    I had just sat through a comedy that wasn't funny, a drama that wasn't touching and, all told, a mess of a story told by actors making some of either the laziest or most daring of choices, depending on your perspective. Sometimes both.
  30. Vantage Point
    What you won’t be able to ignore is the ridiculous way Vantage Point’s brings everything to an end.
