Charlie BartlettA teen comedy without many laughs, a social satire that cuts so deep it leaves viewers squirming. [27 June 2008] 
A Raisin in the SunThe film takes great care to ignite those moments of emotional fires, burning within the dilapidated walls of the apartment. [29 May 2008] 
BellaThe ideological battle lines are quickly drawn, distracting us from what a gentle tale Bella has to tell, even if one disagrees with its final judgments. [15 May 2008] 
The Orphanage (El Orfanato)One would think the whole 'spooky child' setup would have run its course, but this film finds a few new wrinkles to explore. [28 April 2008] 
Charlie Wilson’s WarSorkin's signature dialogue -- smart, rapid fire chatter that packs a punch -- makes this the most engaging poli-sci class you'll ever attend. [24 April 2008] 
The SavagesThe flawless performances and bracing humor enliven this film's grim subject matter. [22 April 2008] |
