Sort by RATING      Sort by TITLE/YEAR      Sort by QUOTE      Sort by SOURCE       A-      Mr. Brooks (2007)      "Mr. Brooks proves an unusual, occasionally awkward blend of suspense, drama and camp that's surprisingly fun." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       A      Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End (2007)      "Captain Jack returns for the climactic conclusion to Disney's swashbuckling trilogy %u2013 and Keith Richards notwithstanding, the movie rocks." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       A-      Shrek the Third (2007)      "Shrek returns in a warm-hearted film that takes the next step in his character evolution - and keeps us laughing all the way." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       B-      Georgia Rule (2007)      "Playing a teenage tramp is not the best way to adjust a degrading public image. Georgia Rule." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       C      Spider-Man 3 (2007)      "Dunst sings, Maguire stagnates, the script sags, and goo from outer space takes center stage. Here's what else is wrong with 'Spiderman 3.'" [movie review]      EDGE Boston       B+      Fracture (2007)      "Anthony Hopkins and Ryan Gosling lend taut, entertaining performances to this predictable, but smartly executed, film." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       C-      The Reaping (2007)      "Hilary Swank wades through bitchin' plagues and comes out looking hot. Film at 11. DVD at 11:30." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       B+      Pride (2007)      "This surprisingly entertaining movie defies its formulaic plot and delivers a well-executed tale of team spirit." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       C      TMNT (2007)      "Unfortunately, while the technology used to bring these fearless crime-fighting faves to the screen has grown-up, the producers forgot to mature the script." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       A      300 (2007)      "The first must-see movie of 2007." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       C+      Bridge to Terabithia (2007)      "Follows in lock-step with the book and populates its titular fantasyland with CGI creatures... neither idea was very good." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       A      Norbit (2007)      "Eddie Murphy reaches into his comedic closet and pulls out a hysterical hit." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       A      Dreamgirls (2006)      "Crisp direction by Bill Condon and a stand-up-and-cheer performance by Jennifer Hudson make this flick a dream." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       D-      Turistas (2006)      "Wants to be 'Hostel,' but it's just half-witted." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       C      Deja Vu (2006)      "Fortunately, this completely ridiculous plot is somewhat salvaged via the casting of a quality actor. Unfortunately for Denzel Washington, he's the actor." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       A      Casino Royale (2006)      "In the film, Bond must gamble to survive and grow; the producers of this franchise did the same - and in both cases, the chips are up." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       B-      Flags of Our Fathers (2006)      "Despite a compelling mission for unearthing the exploitative nature of the term "war hero," this picture has limited appeal." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       A      The Prestige (2006)      "It's all about prestidigitation, folks - and Nolan's hugely entertaining film performs the best sleight-of-hand this side of Vegas." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       A      The Departed (2006)      "A beautifully crafted film that's also egregiously violent -rightfully so." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       A      The Last King of Scotland (2006)      "A tour de force performance by Forrest Whittaker makes this Idi Amin biopic a compelling, challenging, edgy film." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       C-      Invincible (2006)      "This entirely average Disney drama sports nuanced performances and little else." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       A      Idlewild (2006)      "A stylish, energetic romp of 1930s flair with two platinum-selling artists kicking the tires of Hollywood paradigms." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       B-      World Trade Center (2006)      "Weighing in on "World Trade Center" is difficult; it's well-crafted, but it's also sluggish and meek." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       C-      Lady in the Water (2006)      "M. Night's self-absorption is approaching the level of irritation -- here it has all the subtlety of a brick applied to the head." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       A      Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest (2006)      "More swordplay, more swashbuckling, more Jack Sparrow. What's not to love?" [movie review]      EDGE Boston       B+      Superman Returns (2006)      "Nothing can stop Superman: not bullets, not plot holes, and certainly not mere mortals like the occasional movie critic. A gravity-defying success!" [movie review]      EDGE Boston       C      Click (2006)      "'It's a Wonderful Life' with fart jokes." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       B      The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift (2006)      "The plot is basically scrap metal; but for those who appreciate high-paced motor stunts, this heart-pounder lives up to its name." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       A      X-Men: The Last Stand (2006)      "A thrilling third chapter that delves deeper thematically while expanding the universe of franchise characters. Thus far, it's simply the most X-citing film of 2006." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       C+      The Da Vinci Code (2006)      "Monotonous, colorless and entirely too serious, the film self-flagellates all the fun out of Dan Brown's story." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       B      Poseidon (2006)      "'Titanic' went down to the tune of $600 million, so it's no surprise that 'Poseidon' is now rising from the depths. Action-packed yet thematically barren, it will rivet audiences, if only momentarily." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       A      Mission: Impossible III (2006)      "Yes, the plot lacks realism. Yes, Cruise is unrelenting as ever he was. Yes, the action never stops. Which simply means 'Mission: Impossible III' is 2006's first great popcorn flick." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       C+      The Sentinel (2006)      "Can Michael Douglas still command attention at the fore of an action film? Yes%u2026 but it's perhaps the only interesting facet of "The Sentinel."" [movie review]      EDGE Boston       C+      Inside Man (2006)      "An over-clever, underwhelming caper that's largely undeserving of its director and cast." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       A-      V For Vendetta (2005)      "Spills blood more political than corporeal, potentially endangering its box office yet certifying its future as the most talked-about film thus far in 2006." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       B+      Failure to Launch (2006)      "Silly, lighthearted, funny - and despite a slow start, ultimately charms its target audience." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       B+      Eight Below (2006)      "Even performance and plot deficiencies can't stop a husky from emoting effectively on screen. Charming!" [movie review]      EDGE Boston       C-      Firewall (2006)      "Harrison Ford returns to the big screen in a mediocre action thriller, a joy to watch but nevertheless miscast in a blatant exploitation of his fan base." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       C+      Glory Road (2006)      "Like a moderately exciting amusement ride; occasionally fun, but after years of riding this same plot, the same old twists and turns get awfully tiring." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       A+      Munich (2005)      "The most intelligently directed film of the year, 'Munich' is a political thriller that sets its stage in 1972 and plays out in 2006." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       A-      King Kong (2005)      "One of the season's most enjoyable films - even if it's a wee bit overlong." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       A+      Brokeback Mountain (2005)      "The most important gay film in a decade - a must see." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       B+      The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe (2005)      "Despite its overarching Christian themes, Narnia delivers an entertaining yarn." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       A      The Producers (2005)      "'The Producers' lives on in this whimsical, wonderful romp - a notch better than the original film, and a surprisingly apt adaptation of the Broadway show." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       A-      Rent (2005)      "Jonathan Larson's heartfelt story shines through - despite the best efforts of director Chris Columbus." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       A      Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005)      "Welcome to Potter in PG-13... hip, heroic, humorous and... dare I say it? Harry's a hottie!" [movie review]      EDGE Boston       A-      Jarhead (2005)      "Spurns a war movie's expected bloody confrontations for a dry, hot exploration into the ability of the human spirit to survive, scarred but whole." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       B+      Shopgirl (2005)      "Cute, but largely unmemorable." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       C      The Weather Man (2005)      "I’m pretty sure it doesn’t get more depressing than this." [movie review]      EDGE Boston       B+      The Legend of Zorro (2005)      "Despite its flaws, a swashbuckling, frenetic, fun family film." [movie review]      EDGE Boston
