  • P.S. I Love You Review
    By: Kit Bowen December 21, 2007 12:29pm EST
    P.S. I Love You isn’t as pathetically sappy as the title might sound. OK, maybe it is a little, but the film is still a serviceable romantic flick guaranteed to produce sighs and tears.
  • Atonement Review
    By: Kit Bowen December 07, 2007 12:17pm EST
    Atonement follows the grand tradition of sweeping romantic period films, alternating between lush beauty and stark realism; it grabs your heart and doesn’t let go.

    By: WENN.com Source November 29, 2007 4:21am EST
    A movie charting the story of rock band Joy Division swept the board at the British Independent Film Awards (BIFAs) on Wednesday night, receiving five honors.
  • Southland Tales Review
    By: Jenny Peters November 16, 2007 3:30am EST
    This unwatchable futuristic flick created by the same guy who did Donnie Darko is a mess of half-baked ideas and untentionally laughable performances.
  • Fred Claus Review
    By: Kit Bowen November 12, 2007 10:44am EST
    Fred Claus is pure Vince Vaughn hijinks—but the PG, family-friendly mode may not be his most advantageous venue.

    By: Kit Bowen November 09, 2007 4:17am EST
    Proving why he’s still an American classic, 83-year-old director Sidney Lumet turns in another brilliantly executed crime thriller. Before the Devil Knows You're Dead might be a downer but it’s a real stunner
  • Things We Lost in the Fire Review
    By: Robert Sims October 19, 2007 6:10am EST
    It’s been a long time coming, but Halle Berry finally proves that her Monster's Ball Oscar win wasn’t a fluke. Too bad this slow and overwrought tearjerker is never as good as the heart-wrenching performances given by Berry and Benicio Del Toro.
  • Tyler Perry's Why Did I Get Married? Review
    By: Mark Burger October 12, 2007 6:45am EST
    The latest film from multi-hyphenate Tyler Perry is one of his more accessible to date. Why Did I Get Married? may not attract a new audience to the Perry fold, but it should certainly play well with the pre-existing one, which has made him the successful entrepreneur he is today.
  • Trade Review
    By: Robert Sims September 28, 2007 6:14am EST
    Any exposé of the sex-slave trade is going to be hard to watch, especially when it involves the trafficking of children across international borders. But as compelling and revealing as it is, Trade loses its nerve soon after crossing over from Mexico to the United States.
  • Stardust Review
    By: Robert Sims August 13, 2007 11:38am EST
