Rating	T-Meter	Title \| Year	Add Date (default)

Fresh	Fresh 93%	Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans (2009)	" If you're wondering just how bad a bad lieutenant can be, let's just say that Nicolas Cage's 21st century re-incarnation of Abel Ferrara's original 1992 cult version, to say the least, renders Harvey Keitel's bad apple psycho cop a saint in comparison." — NewsBlaze Posted Nov 14, 2009
Fresh	Fresh 68%	Funny People (2009)	" Not exactly a movie about dying of laughter but close to it, Apatow's pot luck mock morbid meditation on mortality, punchlines and male anatomy jokes, is strangely as much about the cutting off of life as castration anxiety issues." — NewsBlaze DVD REVIEW Posted Nov 14, 2009
Fresh	N/A	How to Be (2009)	" A kind of problem child with whiskers bitten by love in this delayed coming of age family dyfunction outing, Pattinson impresses with his broad range, while doing daffy and despair at the same time." — NewsBlaze DVD REVIEW Posted Nov 13, 2009
Fresh	N/A	How to Be (2009)	" A kind of problem child with whiskers bitten by love in this delayed coming of age family dyfunction outing, Pattinson impresses with his broad range, while doing daffy and despair at the same time." — NewsBlaze Posted Nov 13, 2009
Fresh	N/A	How to Be (2008)	" A kind of problem child with whiskers bitten by love in this delayed coming of age family dyfunction outing, Pattinson impresses with his broad range, while doing daffy and despair at the same time." — NewsBlaze DVD REVIEW Posted Nov 13, 2009

Rotten	Rotten 36%	Angels & Demons (2009)	" Plucked eyeballs, Catholic jihad, swiped secrets of living matter, and egghead metaphysical sleuths without a clue." — NewsBlaze DVD REVIEW Posted Nov 13, 2009
N/A	Rotten 38%	2012 (2009)	" The Amanda Peet '2012' Interview" — NewsBlaze INTERVIEW Posted Nov 12, 2009
Fresh	Fresh 90%	The Exiles (1961)	" Kent MacKenzie's 1961 groundbreaking classic about Native American urban alienation, unfolds like an Edwin Hopper painting in motion as intimate noirish voiceover soliloquies of these three troubled protagonists." — NewsBlaze DVD REVIEW Posted Nov 12, 2009
Fresh	Rotten 38%	2012 (2009)	" Emmerich doesn't mess around when intent on messing up the world for good. But his pop apocalypse multiplying man's worst fears, always goes down easy with a side order of popcorn. Apocalypse Wow." — NewsBlaze Posted Nov 12, 2009
Fresh	Fresh 65%	Is Anybody There? (2009)	" A combination of playful humor and gentle emotions connecting unlikely generations. Even if returning to the planet from the afterlife as a born again badger, is the elixir of choice that may shake this self-hating senior out of his miserable funk." — NewsBlaze DVD REVIEW Posted Nov 9, 2009
Fresh	N/A	The Christmas Clause (2009)	" Not quite a preachy family values yarn that is totally soured on lawyer moms in the workplace, the movie does make a case for fulfillment on both scores in, well, a fairly even-handed split verdict." — NewsBlaze DVD REVIEW Posted Nov 9, 2009

Fresh	Rotten 47%	My Sister's Keeper (2009)	" Remarkable in concept and utterly exquisite in its execution, this domestic drama at the deeply conflicted crossroads of family wounds and medical healing, would have baffled even Solomon as to the ultimate value of a child." — NewsBlaze DVD REVIEW Posted Nov 9, 2009
Fresh	Fresh 95%	Star Trek (2009)	" Lost and found planet mayhem in this reconceived excursion down intergalactic memory lane, as cocky spaced out Kirk locks horns with Bana's sulking skinhead in an unresolved cosmic anger management funk." — NewsBlaze DVD REVIEW Posted Nov 9, 2009
Rotten	Rotten 15%	The Ugly Truth (2009)	" Turning up once again as a neurotic, upwardly mobile and oddly gorgeous but luckless in love television drone, Heigl seems most challenged, not with figuring out men, but pretending that she's not capable of roping one in." — NewsBlaze DVD REVIEW Posted Nov 8, 2009
N/A	Rotten 21%	Amelia (2009)	" The Hilary Swank 'Amelia' Interview" — Access Interviews INTERVIEW Posted Nov 8, 2009
N/A	Fresh 90%	Precious: Based on the Novel PUSH by Sapphire (2009)	" The Mo'Nique 'Precious' Interview: Big, Bad And Bodacious" — Access Interviews INTERVIEW Posted Nov 8, 2009
N/A	Rotten 21%	Amelia (2009)	" The Hilary Swank 'Amelia' Interview" — NewsBlaze INTERVIEW Posted Nov 8, 2009
Rotten	Rotten 40%	The Limits of Control (2009)	" This subversion of the classic film noir, rather than conjuring air so thick you could cut it with a knife, is instead so thin that the lack of substance may simply send you into a drowy state. The Limits of Control, or rather the limits of patience." — NewsBlaze DVD REVIEW Posted Nov 8, 2009
Fresh	Fresh 91%	The Messenger (2009)	" This richly conceived powerhouse drama about life and death is ultimately about the search for a sense of family, whether in peace or war, and what binds humans together despite the most unendurable horrors at hand." — NewsBlaze Posted Nov 7, 2009
N/A	Fresh 90%	Precious: Based on the Novel PUSH by Sapphire (2009)	" The Mo'Nique 'Precious' Interview: Big, Bad And Bodacious" — NewsBlaze INTERVIEW Posted Nov 7, 2009
Rotten	Fresh 63%	New World Order (2009)	" New World Order essentially offers nothing 'new' on the topic, nor displays any concrete 'order' in structuring its haphazard collage of hit and run gotcha moments." — NewsBlaze Posted Nov 7, 2009
Fresh	Fresh 67%	Br�no (2009)	" A brilliantly rude, deliriously insane closeted sexual politics on steroids mockumentary. Boasting Bruno as the anointed White Obama, waxed rectums, defense moves against multi-hued dildos, and Ron Paul as peeved object of erotic desire." — NewsBlaze DVD REVIEW Posted Nov 7, 2009
Rotten	Rotten 52%	The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 (2009)	" The movie might leave audiences feeling a lot like hostages themselves, at the hands of the director. Who seems to have a bit of a contact high with all the grating noise, grit and funk of runaway trains. Somebody needed to put the brakes on this guy too." — NewsBlaze DVD REVIEW Posted Nov 7, 2009
Fresh	Fresh 83%	Thirst (2009)	" This big screen guzzler has much to advise about the art of vampiring, including more efficient corpse feasting by cutting the feet of your human dispensers off at the ankles and draining them over the bathtub." — NewsBlaze DVD REVIEW Posted Nov 6, 2009
Rotten	Rotten 56%	Disney's A Christmas Carol (2009)	" This Carol has a worse identity crisis than Scrooge. Clinging to the novel, the film tries to break out of its insular theatrics to propel Scrooge and his supernatural helpmates into outer space, as if in takeoff into a different sci-fi comic book movie." — NewsBlaze Posted Nov 3, 2009
Rotten	Fresh 90%	Precious: Based on the Novel PUSH by Sapphire (2009)	" Baby Mama Dearest minus the coat hangers and Hollywood mansion, this bad parenting horror movie boasts exceptional performances, but is social pornography at its worst, festering in racial self-loathing and oblivious to a system that ignores its neediest." — NewsBlaze Posted Nov 2, 2009
Fresh	Rotten 27%	Splinterheads (2009)	" Boasts loads of playful characters, kooky conversations and gorgeous visuals in the suburban wilds to spare. Not to mention the reputed oldest man in the world, Frankie Faison as unlikely boy toy, and a crazed cop with the pathological hots for Mom." — NewsBlaze Posted Nov 2, 2009
Fresh	N/A	Luxury Car (2006)	" Among the crop of new market economy cinema in China, that tends to dwell not only on the journey across life, but through a damaged and baffling world as well." — NewsBlaze DVD REVIEW Posted Nov 1, 2009

Rotten	Rotten 12%	Spread (2009)	" Ashton Kutcher's stud for sale does a glum gigolo making sex look like awfully hard work, while his current high price tag prey Anne Heche checks into a hospital for genital rejuvenation, don't ask." — NewsBlaze DVD REVIEW Posted Oct 31, 2009
Fresh	Rotten 15%	I Love You, Beth Cooper (2009)	" A bimbo pride teen comedy whose cheerleader girl entourage of shallow sexpots gets enlightened too, about how 'useful' and even entertaining smart geeks with tons of brainy information to spare can be, even if totally lacking in hunk appeal." — NewsBlaze DVD REVIEW Posted Oct 30, 2009

Fresh	Fresh 80%	Michael Jackson's This Is It (2009)	" There's an eerie sense that Jackson is directing from beyond the grave, when not impersonating himself mimicking romance or lust on stage. While the title intimates a prophetic double meaning, as the chronicle of a singular life, and its abrupt farewell." — NewsBlaze Posted Oct 28, 2009
Fresh	Fresh 88%	The House of the Devil (2009)	" An old school vintage terror yarn that comprehends how horror rules when simmering to a slow boil percolating in its own solidly crafted narrative juices, as opposed to a kneejerk reaction slice 'em up overcooked brew." — NewsBlaze Posted Oct 24, 2009
Rotten	Fresh 83%	Beauty in Trouble (2008)	" While life just got a little more complicated with the introduction of the market economy into formerly socialist Eastern Europe and China too, so did their movies. A surface meditation on materialism and its impact on human emotions. Do the math." — NewsBlaze DVD REVIEW Posted Oct 24, 2009
Rotten	Rotten 37%	Cirque du Freak: The Vampire's Assistant (2009)	" Serving up a cartoonish vampire du jour, Cirque Du Freak aims for a defanged preteen-friendly middle ground between hip and undead creepy. There are glimpses into vampire culture, like the art of flitting, which seems to be akin to let's boogie, man." — NewsBlaze Posted Oct 24, 2009
Fresh	Rotten 44%	Saw VI (2009)	" Revenge of the uninsured in this health insurance horror, and we're not talking medical malpractice. While death panels and death penalties alike abound in this surgical slasher spree without benefit of anesthesia, and that goes for the audience too." — NewsBlaze Posted Oct 23, 2009
Fresh	Rotten 15%	Stan Helsing (2009)	" Concocting a Halloween season brew of grossout and gentle gore, Stan Helsing doesn't let its derivative horror get in the way of over the top humor served up spicy and raw." — NewsBlaze Posted Oct 22, 2009
Fresh	Rotten 47%	Whatever Works (2009)	" An out of the closet marinating script liberated from three decades long mothballs, finds the raw unplugged, get-even with the cosmos vintage Woody shining through." — NewsBlaze DVD REVIEW Posted Oct 12, 2009
Fresh	N/A	Dark Country (2009)	" Thomas Jane punishes himself as both director and star, in this erotically charged, paranormal noir hallucinatory honeymoon horror Nevada desert road movie. Not to mention that what happens in Vegas in no way stays in Vegas for its unfortunate characters." — NewsBlaze DVD REVIEW Posted Oct 11, 2009

Fresh	Fresh 72%	I Sell the Dead (2009)	" A juicy old school gothic horror yarn with playfully crafted, delightfully depraved post-modern glee, vampires, zombies, aliens and that new-fangled thing called a sandwich, kicking in for good measure." — NewsBlaze DVD REVIEW Posted Oct 11, 2009
Fresh	N/A	Oral Fixation (2009)	" Ranging from surreal to silly, there's a talking dirty phone-in with machete between the toes as psycho sex toy, and egghead daddy doubles fantasy. Though the movie does give wild warped new meaning to violation of the doctor/patient relationship." — NewsBlaze DVD REVIEW Posted Oct 9, 2009

Fresh	Fresh 73%	American Violet (2009)	" Raw and heart wrenching, uncovering the sort of discomforting, concealed when not buried history that in an odd trend lately, is more likely to make its way to the big screen than the news headlines." — NewsBlaze DVD REVIEW Posted Oct 8, 2009
