3.5/4	"It is not a message picture, never lectures, contains partial nudity but avoids explicit images and grows into a poignant human drama." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Sep 5, 2008	XXY (2008)	74%
3/4	"It's a film filled with wicked satire and sex both joyful and pitiful." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Sep 5, 2008	I Served the King of England (2008)	87%
3/4	"This is a shattering documentary." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 29, 2008	The Axe in the Attic (2008)	n/a
3/4	" You can probably guess the trajectory of the story. But it's not really the destination that makes this a charmer, it's the journey there, mostly by grocery van." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 29, 2008	The Grocer's Son (2008)	80%
3/4	"The story line sounds plain and simple, but the movie is enlightened by Bernie's impassioned narration and by a gallery of small comic details." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 29, 2008	Sixty Six (2008)	63%
3/4	"Don Cheadle is such a good actor. If he were more of a showboat, he would be a bigger star. But he remains the go-to man for a film like this." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 26, 2008	Traitor (2008)	53%
3/4	"The movie is an ideal showcase for the talents of Coogan." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 22, 2008	Hamlet 2 (2008)	62%
0.5/4	"It is an assault on all the senses, including common. Walking out, I had the impression I had just seen the video game and was still waiting for the movie." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 22, 2008	Death Race (2008)	39%
3/4	"It's nicely done." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 22, 2008	Elegy (2008)	73%
3.5/4	"Here's the bottom line, kids. The United States is probably going to go broke during your lifetimes." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 22, 2008	I.O.U.S.A. (2008)	88%
3.5/4	"In Search of a Midnight Kiss isn't a homage or a recycling job. It's a film with its own organic existence, its own reason for being. It is ultimately a very true and moving story." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 22, 2008	In Search of a Midnight Kiss (2008)	86%
2.5/4	"It has few human insights, and those of the most obvious kind. But it is not boring. That goes for something." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 22, 2008	Eight Miles High (2007)	36%
3/4	"*If I've seen one movie about a team of underdogs, I've seen a dozen. But I hadn't seen The Longshots* before.*" -- Chicago Sun-Times* Posted Aug 22, 2008	The Longshots (2008)	39%
3/4	"That Hitler was mad is well known. That he was mad about art, not so well." -- Denver Post Posted Aug 15, 2008	The Rape Of Europa (2007)	78%
4/4	"Frozen River is one of those rare independent films that knows precisely what it intends, and what the meaning of the story is." -- RogerEbert.com Posted Aug 15, 2008	Frozen River (2008)	86%
3.5/4	"Transsiberian starts in neutral, taking the time to introduce its characters, and then goes from second into high like greased lightning. I was a little surprised to notice how thoroughly it wound me up. This is a good one." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 15, 2008	Transsiberian (2008)	89%
3/4	"A spellbinder with a lot of Hitchcock touches and an Ennio Morricone score to match." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 15, 2008	The Unknown Woman (2008)	62%
3.5/4	"A spiritual movie with the power to emotionally touch believers, agnostics and atheists -- in that descending order, I suspect. It doesn't say that religious beliefs are real. It simply says that belief is real. And it's a warm-hearted love story." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 15, 2008	Henry Poole Is Here (2008)	37%
3.5/4	"He is a little like Eric Rohmer here. The actors are attractive, the city is magnificent, the love scenes don't get all sweaty, and everybody finishes the summer a little wiser and with a lifetime of memories. What more could you ask?" -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 15, 2008	Vicky Cristina Barcelona (2008)	81%
1.5/4	"*Has it come to this? Has the magical impact of George Lucas' original vision of Star Wars* been reduced to the level of Saturday morning animation?*" -- Chicago Sun-Times* Posted Aug 15, 2008	The Clone Wars (2008)	20%
3.5/4	"It�s the kind of summer comedy that rolls in, makes a lot of people laugh and rolls on to video. It�s been a good summer for that." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 12, 2008	Tropic Thunder (2008)	84%
2/4	"300 has one-dimensional caricatures who talk like professional wrestlers plugging their next feud." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 8, 2008	300 (2007)	60%
3.5/4	"Remarkable, how little Sokurov tells us, while telling us so much." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 8, 2008	Alexandra (2008)	94%
3.5/4	"Frownland is like a shriek for help. It centers on an extraordinary performance that plays like an unceasing panic attack. To call it uncompromising is to wish for a better word." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 8, 2008	Frownland (2008)	90%
3.5/4	"Mullen and Garfield fit well together -- both have faces you like on first sight, both have charm, both have warmth." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 8, 2008	Boy A (2008)	89%
1/4	"The movie was executive produced by Quentin Tarantino. Shame on him. He intends it no doubt as another homage to grindhouse pictures, but I've seen a lot of them, and they were nowhere near this bad. Hell's Angels on Wheels, for example: pretty good." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 8, 2008	Hell Ride (2008)	11%
4/4	"Constructed like a first-rate thriller." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 8, 2008	Man on Wire (2008)	100%
3/4	"The sisters can go their separate ways, no doubt keeping in touch by e-mail, and congratulating themselves on being infinitely better than the Ya-Ya Sisterhood." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 5, 2008	The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2 (2008)	63%
3.5/4	"Bottle Shock is more than the story. It is also about people who love their work, care about it with passion and talk about it with knowledge." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 5, 2008	Bottle Shock (2008)	45%
3.5/4	"Pineapple Express is the answer to the question, 'What would happen if a movie like this was made by a great director?'" -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 5, 2008	Pineapple Express (2008)	69%
3/4	"Shunning the tons of equipment ordinarily taken along on location, Brown used only what he could carry. The beautiful photography he brought home almost makes you wonder if Hollywood hasn't been trying too hard." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 4, 2008	The Endless Summer (1966)	100%
2/4	"A monotonous slog through dirgeland, telling a story that seems strung out beyond all reason, with flashbacks upon flashbacks delaying interminably the underwhelming climax." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 1, 2008	The Take (2008)	85%
3.5/4	"Yella is a reserved young woman with unrevealed depths of intelligence, larceny and passion. Their gradual revelation makes this more than an ordinary thriller, in great part because of the performance of Nina Hoss in the title role." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 1, 2008	Yella (2008)	78%
3/4	"American Teen isn't as penetrating or obviously realistic as her On the Ropes, but Burstein (who won best director at Sundance 2008) has achieved an engrossing film." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 1, 2008	American Teen (2008)	70%
1.5/4	"He [baghead] is obviously simply a device to make the movie long enough to qualify as a feature, and the denouement will be one of stunning underwhelmingness." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Aug 1, 2008	Baghead (2008)	79%

3/4	"The movie is a genial comedy, but it has significant undertones." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Jul 31, 2008	Swing Vote (2008)	39%
3/4	"Now why did I like this movie? It was just plain dumb fun, is why. It is absurd and preposterous, and proud of it." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Jul 31, 2008	The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor (2008)	11%
3.5/5	"She has achieved extraordinary access to the other still-living players in the case, and they all seem to be in agreement: Polanski is correct in saying the judge played with him as a cat might play with a mouse." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Jul 25, 2008	Roman Polanski: Wanted and Desired (2008)	86%
3/4	"A good, sound example of the British period drama; mid-range Merchant-Ivory, you could say." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Jul 25, 2008	Brideshead Revisited (2008)	68%
3.5/4	Click here to read article -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Jul 25, 2008	The Exiles (1961)	89%
1.5/4	"*When did comedies get so mean? Step Brothers* has a premise that might have produced a good time at the movies, but when I left, I felt a little unclean.*" -- Chicago Sun-Times* Posted Jul 24, 2008	Step Brothers (2008)	53%
3.5/4	"I make it sound a little silly. Well, it is a little silly, but it's also a skillful thriller, giving us just enough cutaways to a sinister laboratory to keep us fascinated." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Jul 24, 2008	The X-Files: I Want to Believe (2008)	33%
3.5/4	"It is Claude Sarraute's performance that I love most of all in the film. I can easily imagine spending the night in the salon of this old lady, and telling her everything she wants to hear." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Jul 18, 2008	The Last Mistress (2008)	77%
2.5/4	"A sweet but inconsequential romantic comedy." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Jul 18, 2008	Elsa & Fred (2008)	52%
2/4	"There are the wall-to-wall songs by ABBA, if you like that sort of thing. I don't, not much." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Jul 18, 2008	Mamma Mia! (2008)	54%
3/4	"Space Chimps is delightful from beginning to end: A goofy space opera." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Jul 18, 2008	Space Chimps (2008)	33%
4/4	"Iron Man and even more so The Dark Knight move the genre into deeper waters. They realize, as some comic-book readers instinctively do, that these stories touch on deep fears, traumas, fantasies and hopes." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Jul 16, 2008	The Dark Knight (2008)	94%
3/4	"What saves this movie, which won this year's audience award at Sundance, from being boring are performances by two actors who see a chance to go over the top and aren't worried about the fall on the other side." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Jul 11, 2008	The Wackness (2008)	67%
2/4	"This is a fairly bad movie, and yet at the same time maybe about as good as it could be." -- Chicago Sun-Times Posted Jul 11, 2008	Journey to the Center of the Earth (2008)	61%
