" Guaranteed to send everyone out of the theater with red eyes and wet cheeks. To its credit, Marley & Me achieves that with a maximum amount of class and a minimum amount of manipulation." -- CHUD

Quantum of Solace (2008)65%

" Dull, predictable, ugly, filled with bad or lackluster performances, contains objectionable racial material and just generally lacking in anything worthwhile. One of the worst movies of the year." -- CHUD

" Despite being rushed so it could be released before the election, and even with all of its faults and problems, W. remains a very good movie, and is often funny and surprisingly sympathetic." -- CHUD

" I laughed loud and hard throughout this film, and I enjoyed every minute of it and have no problem enthusiastically recommending it to you. But time and again the movie's jokes reach for comedic nirvana and fall just ever so short." -- CHUD

Tropic Thunder (2008)83%

" The aesthetic here isn't homaging 80s buddy action movies so much as just making one. It's MIDNIGHT RUN for the 21st century." -- CHUD

" If you want to get prepared for this one, don't go back and watch the other Indy movies. Pull out The Lost World instead. Both films are directed by the same Steven Spielberg - bored, only mildly engaged and seemingly going through the motions." -- CHUD

" Watching Keith Richards paraded around like a man in a character costume at Disneyland I found myself realizing how f***ing lame this group has become... This isn't rock and roll - this is a very loud Lawrence Welk performance." -- CHUD

" [The film] is, in the end, mildly disappointing, a movie that is beautiful but without warmth. Hopefully Joe Wright can continue on the visual path he is blazing for himself while not again losing the humanity of his wonderful Pride & Prejudice." -- CHUD
