Not Easily Broken (2009) 31% 3/4 “Not Easily Broken isn't perfect. It's a tad preachy at times. Yet it also lifts spirits with the power of emotional healing and forgiveness. Amen to that.” – San Antonio Express-News Jan 12, 2009 Full Review The Unborn (2009) 10% 1/4 “The Unborn is so lame that even a scene where Nazi 'doctors' experiment on twin children by poking a needle in their eyeballs is more laughable than horrendous.” – San Antonio Express-News Jan 12, 2009 Full Review Gran Torino (2008) 81% 3.5/4 “Except for the overstated growl, which admittedly is nitpicky, Eastwood may have directed himself right back into Oscar contention.” – San Antonio Express-News Jan 9, 2009 Full Review The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2008) 72% “As much as I admired Benjamin Button's gimmicks, the excellent makeup and a sometimes-mesmerizing emotional journey, I just couldn't shoo away the obvious Forrest Gump similarities. Roth leans on them too strongly as a screenplay crutch.” – San Antonio Express-News Jan 9, 2009 Full Review Australia (2008) 54% 2.5/4 “Like the kangaroo that goes from a newcomer's sightseeing delight to dinner meat with the sudden crack of a rifle shot, Australia hops all over the place.” – San Antonio Express-News Nov 26, 2008 Full Review Role Models (2008) 77% “Well, here's something we don't usually see at the movies. Role Models is a raucously bawdy lowbrow comedy with a brain.” – San Antonio Express-News Nov 21, 2008 Full Review Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa (2008) 64% 3.5/4 “Rarely do we get to truly celebrate a movie's second time around. We should this one, though. The filmmakers really move it, move it to the next level of joyous entertainment.” – San Antonio Express-News Nov 21, 2008 Full Review Ashes of Time Redux (2008) 79% 2/4 “Maybe something gets lost in the translation, as often happens, but Wong may be giving us the first Eastern.” – San Antonio Express-News Nov 21, 2008 Full Review Quantum of Solace (2008) 63% 2.5/4 “There is a Bond girl, of course. You can take the catchphrases and the gadgets out, it appears, but leave the sultry ladies alone.” – San Antonio Express-News Nov 21, 2008 Full Review Twilight (2008) 48% 2.5/4 “How can a teen romantic fantasy not be at least some fun when the leading man's lipstick is several shades redder than that of the ingénue?” – San Antonio Express-News Nov 21, 2008 Full Review Bolt (2008) 90% 3/4 “Make a little room Lady, Tramp and all you Dalmatians, Disney's got a new animated dog to bark about.” – San Antonio Express-News Nov 21, 2008 Full Review RocknRolla (2008) 60% 3/4 “Welcome back, Mr. Ritchie. I missed your work when you were, you know, Swept Away into an uncomfortable filmmaking zone.” – San Antonio Express-News Nov 3, 2008 Full Review The Haunting of Molly Hartley (2008) 3% 2/4 “The Haunting of Molly Hartley, sort of an updated Rosemary's Baby for teens, sucks most of the suspense out of its own suspense-thriller before the story even gets going.” – San Antonio Express-News Nov 3, 2008 Full Review Changeling (2008) 62% 3/4 “Most filmmakers begin their careers hungry and looking for every possible nuance to improve their film. In his 78th year and with 35 of them under his belt as a filmmaker, Eastwood still has plenty of creative steam. ... This is no victory-lap production” – San Antonio Express-News Nov 3, 2008 Full Review Zack and Miri Make a Porno (2008) 66% 2.5/4 “If movies were fireworks, Smith's latest effort would be a fuse-moistened bottle rocket that only manages subdued flight.” – San Antonio Express-News Nov 3, 2008 Full Review I Served the King of England (2006) 79% 3/4 “I Served the King of England plays like a combination of Life Is Beautiful and Forrest Gump.” – San Antonio Express-News Oct 24, 2008 Full Review High School Musical 3: Senior Year (2008) 64% 3/4 “They sing. They dance. And they smooch a little. But not too much. After all, this is a G-rated Disney extravaganza.” – San Antonio Express-News Oct 24, 2008 Full Review Pride and Glory (2008) 35% 3/4 “This is the first time (Edward) Norton and (Colin) Farrell have shared a movie screen. It would be a crime for it to be the last.” – San Antonio Express-News Oct 24, 2008 Full Review Saw V (2008) 13% .5/4 “... heads roll and nail bomb shrapnel turns a headstrong 'survivor' into a pile of pink human brisket with pants. Does this sound like entertainment to you?” – San Antonio Express-News Oct 24, 2008 Full Review Quarantine (2008) 55% 1.5/4 “Visually, this one mirrors Cloverfield right down to the dropped camera left to record what happens when the humans in the vicinity have been, uh, quarantined.” – San Antonio Express-News Oct 17, 2008 Full Review Max Payne (2008) 16% 2.5/4 “Wahlberg packs the talent to add depth to most roles. In this one, though, he does little more than mope around and blast away (video-game style) in this barrage of rapid fire.” – San Antonio Express-News Oct 17, 2008 Full Review W. (2008) 58% 2/4 “Stone ... does little more than place a sitting president on a pedestal of lampoon with a poor choice of timing, less than three weeks before a presidential election.” – San Antonio Express-News Oct 17, 2008 Full Review Righteous Kill (2008) 18% 3/4 “It's good to see the two great actors of their generation back together in Righteous Kill. Frankly, though, although a few sparks of fire at times, the heat has subsided significantly.” – San Antonio Express-News Sep 29, 2008 Full Review Burn After Reading (2008) 78% 3.5/4 “... the Marx Brothers couldn't outrace the Coen boys when it comes to zany comic shenanigans.” – San Antonio Express-News Sep 29, 2008 Full Review Tyler Perry's the Family That Preys (2008) 55% 3/4 “(Tyler) Perry, a cinematic one-man band who wrote the script, produces, directs and plays the role of a decent husband and construction worker, is still growing as a filmmaker.” – San Antonio Express-News Sep 29, 2008 Full Review
