New in Town (2009)
28%
B-
“Zellweger, despite her propensity to scrunch her face, has an easy chemistry with Connick that is unthreatening and enjoyable, and she's good at the physical comedy the role requires.” –

Hotel for Dogs (2009)

B-
“In the end, the message is what prevails. The movie's political and moral points -- and theme about creating family however you can find it -- elevate it above the average kids movie.” –

Tru Loved (2008)
39%
C+
“There isn't really much that differentiates Tru Loved from any other low-budget indie film. It isn't unique visually and a lot of the acting is what, at best, could be called amateur.” –

What Just Happened? (2008)

C
“The film strains to achieve the comedic gait of Wag the Dog or the improvised, overlapping style that so defined Robert Altman's Hollywood movie, The Player.” –

“Provided you don't take it seriously, it makes for an addictively entertaining diversion that's as hard to stop watching as the books are to stop reading.” –

The Women (2008)
13%
C
“English goes more for sympathy and episodic comedy than substance. Luce wrote her play as a scathing commentary on a social milieu she hated. The Women tries to have it both ways and becomes more caricatured than dimensional.” –

Chris & Don: A Love Story (2007)
94%
C
“Isherwood was the far more interesting subject, but Chris & Don is all about Bachardy -- an observation that feels like opportunism more than love story.” –

Tell No One (2006)

B+
“For all of its insanity of supposition, familial discord and the often-explored theme of the corrupt nature of the rich, Tell No One is something rare and original.” –

Kit Kittredge: An American Girl (2008)
80%
B-
“Kit Kittredge could be primed for a series of sequels, yet as directed by Patricia Rozema, its elemental integrity seems in direct opposition to the blockbuster or sequel-mania that fuels Hollywood.” –

Sex and Death 101 (2007)
25%
D
“Sex and Death falls into the category of those unfortunate films in that it's a schoolboy's wet dream slathered in smug self-back patting and wish-fantasy run amok, all told with the deftness of a piano falling out of the sky and onto our heads.” –

“Vanity project? Maybe. Anybody who writes, directs, edits and stars is called auteur or vain, sometimes depending upon their sex, but Julie Delpy's directorial debut, if derivative, is gutsy enough too.” –
