The Invention of Lying (2009) 56% B+ EDIT “The tone remains the same throughout, though, good spirited and high minded without pretensions. It remains funny -- but forsakes its potential to be a truly original comedy start-to-finish.” – E! Online Oct 2, 2009 Full Review Jennifer's Body (2009) 47% B+ EDIT “It's tailor-made for screenings at midnight and slumber parties.” – E! Online Sep 18, 2009 Full Review Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs (2009) 85% A- EDIT “Cloudy sets another high watermark for recent animation movies.” – E! Online Sep 17, 2009 Full Review 9 (2009) 57% B- EDIT “This is a flawed gem.” – E! Online Sep 8, 2009 Full Review Brüno (2009) 68% B- EDIT “Sacha Baron Cohen uses his guerilla tactics to 'expose' the vanity and vacuity of Hollywood and the American South. His high-wire humor can be very funny, but here the groans often drown out the giggles.” – E! Online Jul 9, 2009 Full Review Public Enemies (2009) 68% C- EDIT “Public Enemies grinds to nothing more than a watered-down escape caper, a chase without context or meaning.” – E! Online Jun 30, 2009 Full Review Away We Go (2009) 67% B+ EDIT “Krasinki is able to anchor the movie with a limber, melancholy performance -- and doesn't draw too heavily from his overflowing reservoir of nice-guy charm.” – E! Online Jun 5, 2009 Full Review Land of the Lost (2009) 27% B+ EDIT “Will Ferrell justifies his outsized fame in this surprisingly bizarre and dirty adaptation of the campy '70s TV time-travel classic.” – E! Online Jun 4, 2009 Full Review The Hangover (2009) 79% B- EDIT “It has a couple of stand-out characters in Ed Helms and Zach Galifianakis, and enough T-shirt-worthy catchphrases to keep the chuckles coming.” – E! Online Jun 4, 2009 Full Review Angels & Demons (2009) 36% C- EDIT “This diligent yet dull religious caper only adds to the long list of Tom Hanks throwaway features, movies best enjoyed on airplanes.” – E! Online May 14, 2009 Full Review Next Day Air (2009) 22% D EDIT “Good lord this movie is boring!” – E! Online May 8, 2009 Full Review Ghosts of Girlfriends Past (2009) 27% B- EDIT “Conor has the flamboyant confidence of a matador, but McConaughey draws out the right amount of sleaze and tenderness to transform Conor from a bullfighter to a rodeo clown.” – E! Online May 1, 2009 Full Review Obsessed (2009) 19% B EDIT “The immaculate Beyoncé Knowles and devastatingly handsome Idris Elba attack their silly parts with a ferocity the gives this dumpy little movie the spark it needs to be compelling.” – E! Online Apr 27, 2009 Full Review 17 Again (2009) 57% B- EDIT “Afraid that pubescent shrieking and swooning will drown out critical plot points of this zany body-swap flick? No worries! 17 Again is essentially a flipbook of Zac Efron pictures with some sound thrown over it.” – E! Online Apr 16, 2009 Full Review Observe and Report (2009) 51% D EDIT “Unsure if it's supposed to make you love or loathe all the ugly behavior and cheap gags, Observe and Report will make you squirm for all the wrong reasons.” – E! Online Apr 9, 2009 Full Review I Love You, Man (2009) 82% A EDIT “This comedy of manners, about the anxieties of modern male friendship, gets the balance of smarts and raunch exactly right. Plus, costars Paul Rudd and Jason Segel could not be more likeable, funny and on their game.” – E! Online Mar 20, 2009 Full Review Sunshine Cleaning (2008) 74% B EDIT “The tenderhearted performances -- from Amy Adams and Emily Blunt -- and glowing characters in Sunshine Cleaning never get a chance to burst through a foggy plot about sisters scrubbing up after grisly crime scenes.” – E! Online Mar 12, 2009 Full Review Tyler Perry's Madea Goes to Jail (2009) 27% D+ EDIT “The movie's titular matron (Perry in drag) is actually a diversion from the film's cornball melodrama, and will likely inspire jeers, instead of applause, even from his most dedicated fans.” – E! Online Feb 23, 2009 Full Review Eleven Minutes (2008) 59% A- EDIT “A superbly crafted, bargain-budget documentary that profiles a fascinating underdog and skillfully explores the troubled territory between reality TV and reality.” – E! Online Feb 19, 2009 Full Review Gone Baby Gone (2007) 94% A EDIT “Pulp meets poetry on the Boston rooftops in Ben Affleck's directorial debut. This absorbing and complex neighborhood-noir, about a private eye on the trail of a missing girl, is easily one of the best movies of the year.” – E! Online Oct 19, 2007 Full Review The Heartbreak Kid (2007) 29% D+ EDIT “It's heartbreaking enough to witness a shallow remake of a treasured classic, but it's equally depressing to watch comedy masters Ben Stiller and the Farrelly brothers go so completely off their game.” – E! Online Oct 5, 2007 Full Review Sydney White (2007) 36% A- EDIT “The humor is fast-paced, jovial with just a tinge of sarcasm and never cynical.” – E! Online Sep 20, 2007 Full Review The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (2007) 76% C- EDIT “An absolute misfire.” – E! Online Sep 20, 2007 Full Review Across the Universe (2007) 53% B- EDIT “If you're willing to submit to the schmaltz and the clichs, then there is a fun anticipation in not knowing what creative imagery or long-loved song Taymor might use next.” – E! Online Sep 14, 2007 Full Review The Brothers Solomon (2007) 17% D EDIT “This is a perfect date movie. If you hate your date.” – E! Online Sep 7, 2007 Full Review
