	Title Publication	Review Date	Rating	Quote
1.	Zookeeper New York Magazine	07/08/11	Weak	"If pratfalls and silly voices are sometimes fun, nothing else works: Five screenwriters are credited, because no one writer can recall so many bland catchphrases."
2.	Winnie The Pooh (2011) New York Magazine	07/14/11	Good	"...much like what we thought children's entertainment was supposed to be... adorably, if forgettably, soothing.... mercifully without sting."
3.	What's Your Number? New York Magazine	09/30/11	Poor	"...so dull that it may be the only film that could leave you wishing for another 'Scary Movie' sequel.... just too careful for such a recklessly funny actress."
4.	Water For Elephants New York Magazine	04/22/11	Poor	"The camera doesn't so much propel the story forward as orbit Pattinson's head, like a reverent CAT scan."
5.	Tuesday, After Christmas (Marti, dupa craciun) New York Magazine	05/28/11	Very Good	"While divorce films are typically either throw-the-vase-against-the-wall humdingers or heavy, slo-mo soul crushers, this is the rare example that doesn't judge."
6.	TrollHunter (Trolljegeren) New York Magazine	06/11/11	Weak	"What was fresh and scary in 'Blair Witch' twelve years ago... just isn't anymore, and director André Øvredal has little else in his bag of tricks."
7.	The Woodmans New York Magazine	04/19/10	Excellent	"...seductive narrative lays out Woodman's epigrammatic journals, photographs, and videos as clues in a self-murder mystery.... wrenching..."
8.	The Smurfs New York Magazine	07/29/11	Poor	"...take a long-in-the-tooth franchise and move it to -- New York! Bound to work, right? If nothing else, just think of the clichés to mine.... this is lazy at best."
9.	The Myth of the American Sleepover New York Magazine	07/22/11	Very Good	"...an Altman-esque micro-indie ensemble drama... a number of precisely drawn moments capture a confused teenage tenderness we rarely see on film."
10.	The Last Mountain New York Magazine	06/04/11	Very Good	"...admirably focused... that even a documentary as good as this won't spark much beyond impotent rage in the few who see it -- only makes the film more tragic."
11.	The Guard (2011) New York Magazine	07/29/11	Excellent	"...well-acted, explosively funny, and tightly executed... boasts the latest in a brilliant string of performances by bastard-with-a-brogue specialist Brendan Gleeson."
12.	The Devil's Double New York Magazine	07/29/11	Good	"...little more than a glitzy, horror-movie showcase for Dominic Cooper's dueling performances. But Cooper puts on one hell of a show..."
13.	The Art of Getting By New York Magazine	06/17/11	Poor	"But wait, can this film really be so obvious? Yes it can."
14.	The Arbor New York Magazine	04/29/11	Excellent	"...grotesquely powerful... these interviews play, at once, like legal testimony, painful confession, and egotistical monologue."
15.	Terri New York Magazine	07/01/11	Good	"...stands out for reminding us of the clumsy everyday horrors of high school."
16.	Sympathy for Delicious New York Magazine	04/29/11	Weak	"...disappointing... an audacious gamble... the scattered, predictable execution rarely matches the bravado of the premise."
17.	Super (2011) New York Magazine	04/01/11	Poor	"...a compulsive parasite that sucks up the essence of so many other superheroes it loses any semblance of its own identity."
18.	Submarine (2011) New York Magazine	06/04/11	Excellent	"What it does particularly well is nail the noble and relatable futility of Oliver's messy attempt to get everything exactly right in a world where such perfection is impossible."
19.	Something Borrowed New York Magazine	05/07/11	Poor	"...insufferable... Inept and implausible in almost every way... the smug rom-com answer to the Apatowian man-child comedy..."
20.	Red Riding Hood (2011) New York Magazine	03/11/11	Weak	"...has virtues (the stark, stylized visuals; a scenery-shredding turn by Gary Oldman), yet it ends with such a naked attempt at launching a franchise, any good evaporates."
