2.5/4
     (2008)      "Unashamedly old-fashioned and corny, if not quite up to the director's usual high standards." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
2/4
     (2008)      "The scenes between Poppy (Sally Hawkins) and driving-instructor Scott (Eddie Marsan) have real bite." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
3.5/4
     (2008)      "Director Danny Boyle takes a love story, wraps it up in television game show, and delivers it via a kaleidoscopic travelogue of Mumbai. And it works. Splendidly!" [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
2.5/4
     (2008)      "Grumpy Glaswegians going at it are once again the focus of David ("Young Adam") Mackenzie's bleak and dreary -- but not wholly uninteresting -- drama." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
1.5/4
     (2008)      "This flat, uninspired sailing documentary from the Walt Disney studios has surprisingly little to say." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
1.5/4
     (2008)      "British funny man Simon Pegg continues his downwards spiral with this lame, "'Devil Wears Prada"-styled "comedy."" [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
2.5/4
     (2000)      "Nobody plays put-upon quite like Ben Stiller." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
2.5/4
     (2001)      "The complexities of the script, while clever, will likely fly over the heads of most within its target demographic." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
3.5/4
     (1984)      "Scores an 11 (out of 10) for sheer inspired lunacy but it's the writers' unexpected fondness for their subject matter that puts the film in a class all its own." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
3/4
     (2008)      "A pleasant return to the silliness of the Coens' earlier pictures from the stiltedness of their latter-day offerings (No Country' excepted)." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
3/4
     (2008)      "The highs and lows of getting one's first book published are intricately and delightfully examined in Norwegian director Joachim Trier's mature feature debut." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
1.5/4
     (2008)      "A dull dramatization of -- and ill-fitting testament to -- British journalist George Hogg's experiences in war torn China." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
3/4
     (2008)      "Jack Black puts the "POW!" in Kung' pao." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
1.5/4
     (2007)      "Stuart (Re-Animator) Gordon's murky misuse of Mena Suvari and Stephen Rea makes John Carpenter movies look like Art." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
2/4
     (2007)      "Where are the truth in titular advertising police when you need them?" [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
3/4
     (2008)      "More bronzed bodies bearing arms leading to inevitable shootouts delivered via a washed-out, hand-held digital style pulsing along to an infectious Latin beat." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
2.5/4
     (2008)      "Maybe I've got some subconscious porcine fetish thing going (or something) but I think Christina Ricci looks kind of cute with a pig's snout where her nose should be..." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
3.5/4
     (2008)      "By the time this intense, well-made drama has run its inevitable course you might well want to collapse in the snow and wave your own arms up and down in surrender." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
2.5/4
     (2008)      "OK of its type, even if its type is starting to exude that slightly disagreeable scent of 'been there, done that.'" [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
3/4
     (2007)      "Daniel Day-Lewis's magnificent, sanguine performance as oilman Daniel Plainview is just one of many reasons to catch P.T. Anderson's latest feature." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
3/4
     (2007)      "A harrowing look at how war takes its terrible toll on the innocent." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
3/4
     (2008)      "Arguably, it's "Even Better Than the Real Thing."" [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
4/4
     (1975)      "Pacino at the top of his game." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
2.5/4
     (2008)      "Are we supposed to be charmed, or shocked, by this? Allen doesn't seem to know." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
2/4
     (2008)      "Money is really important in this world, apparently." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
3/4
     (2007)      "As an addition to the psychological thriller genre, The Orphanage is a solid, well-rehearsed entry." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
2/4
     (2007)      "By the end of the The Water Horse...Russell's film has pretty much morphed into Free Willy IV: Lassie Go Home." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
3/4
     (2007)      "So darned depressing in its observancy that it's no stretch to assume that writer/director Jenkins might have experienced something entirely similar first hand." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
3.5/4
     (2007)      "Screenwriter Cody's wit and imagination are seemingly endless." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
3.5/4
     (2007)      "A majestic and intimate romance that should rightly cement the careers of director Joe Wright and leading man James McAvoy, and give Saoirse Ronan some much-deserved exposure." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
3.5/4
     (2007)      "With No Country for Old Men, the brothers Coen return to Texas -- and to form." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
1.5/4
     (2007)      "A huge disappointment after Baumbach's sublime 'Squid and the Whale. Ugly and mean." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
2.5/4
     (2006)      "Six sexy spelunkers in an underground fright fest make for keen and claustrophobic cinema." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
2/4
     (2007)      "Alas, it just doesn't work. It could have, but it doesn't." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
2/4
     (2007)      "The games, the traps, are still the thing and as long as Jigsaw's flunkies continue to build 'em, we will come." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
2.5/4
     (2007)      "Nice to look at, but about as weighty as the froth atop a tall skim latte." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
2.5/4
     (2007)      "For all its quixotic quirkiness, The Darjeeling Limited is little more than artifice for the art house set." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
2.5/4
     (2007)      "This sporadically funny Farrellys farce is worth watching (mostly) for Stiller (Ben) and the game Akerman (Malin) in the leads." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
1.5/4
     (2007)      "Good Luck Chuck is a soft-core male indulgence posing as a hip Hollywood good luck chuckle." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
3/4
     (2007)      "There hasn't been a documentary this sick since Kirby Dick's Sick!" [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
2.5/4
     (2007)      "The brains behind Cartoon Network's Aqua Teen Hunger Force have stretched their 12-minute plus commercials 'Adult Swim' series entry into 86 rather uneven ones." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
2/4
     (2007)      "Bravura performances can't save this 'One, a run-of-the-mill vigilante flick from director Neil Jordan (not known for his run-of-the-mill anything)." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
3/4
     (2007)      "There are certainly worse ways to kill 90 odd minutes of one's time than spending two days in Paris in the estimable company of "Woody" (Adam) and "Mia" (Julie)." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
3/4
     (2007)      "Yet another stirring example that The Western is still very much alive and kicking." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
3/4
     (2007)      "It's refreshing to see the French finally producing a worthy entry in the horror genre." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
2/4
     (2007)      "Wall-to-wall stiffness runs rampant in this latest take on Jack Finney's oft-filmed 'Body Snatchers yarn." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
1.5/4
     (2007)      "If you like your outhouse humor explosive then this 'Camp's for you!" [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
2/4
     (2007)      "When it's not fast and furious, The Bourne Ultimatum settles for slick and noisy... and it's often hard to tell these two moods apart." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
3/4
     (2007)      "I could watch Kingsley and Leoni for days. They're the film's true draw." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
2/4
     (2007)      "Cute idea, poor execution..." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews
