" The movie crams in myriad needless subplots -- ostensibly to provide padding, which only draws attention to how thin the original story really is." -- Associated Press

Soul Men (2008)44%

" The script's rampant wrongness would have been amusing enough on the page, but the delivery from the cast makes the material consistently laugh-out-loud funny." -- Associated Press

" Ritchie is back on comfortable, familiar footing here with this story of British gangsters who are so busy trying to screw each other over, they don't realize that they're in over their heads." -- Associated Press

" Rogen and Banks make an extremely likable comic pair, even though they're an unlikely romantic match (or perhaps because of it)." -- Associated Press

What Just Happened (2008)51%

" It's not that the crime thriller Righteous Kill is spectacularly awful. It's just thoroughly mediocre — a standard police procedural, a long episode of Law & Order, unremarkable but for the pairing of Robert De Niro and Al Pacino." -- Associated Press

" David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson do slip comfortably back into the roles that made them superstars in the 1990s, but the movie itself from director and X-Files series creator Chris Carter never feels like anything more than an extended episode." -- Associated Press

" Except for some obvious staging on Burstein’s part, their ups and downs, doubts and dreams, all feel vividly real. Well, at least more real than anything you see on The Hills." -- Associated Press

" Andrew Stanton is resourceful enough to find infinite ways for them to express themselves — amusingly, achingly, and with emotional precision. He's also created, with the help of a team of animators, a visual marvel." -- Associated Press
