1.
MacGruber
Washington Post
05/22/10 Weak "...seems content to simply point at its hero, yell 'What a schmuck!' and leave it at that.... Like a kid banging pots together in a kitchen, it's a little bit funny, until it's not."
2.
Zombieland
Washington Post
10/02/09 Good (Not Great) "Wildly implausible, slightly scary and plot-lite... try to dwell on the laughs and stop asking questions."
3.
The Providence Effect
Washington Post
09/25/09 Good (Not Great) "...an earnest, if long, documentary about an undeniably good thing... All the administrators are strong, all the teachers are good-hearted and all the children are above average."
4.
The September Issue
Washington Post
09/11/09 Outstanding "It's delicious and ensnaring and easy on the eyes, but it can't give you the definitive truth about notoriously frosty Vogue editor Anna Wintour."
5.
Halloween II
Washington Post
08/29/09 Moderate "...old slasher magic, replete with graphic gore unseen in the earlier movies. If you enjoy cardiac-arrest-inducing volts of emotional shock, 'Halloween II' cannot fail to please."
6.
Bandslam
Washington Post
08/14/09 Outstanding "...an unabashedly sweet, zeitgeist-capturing movie that nerdy teens will be happy to grow up with and parents will be pleased to tag along to."
7.
The Ugly Truth
Washington Post
07/24/09 Good "...takes everything that is rom-com to the hysterical max.... pleasingly glossy, refreshingly snarky and startlingly sexy."
8. 07/10/09 Poor "Perhaps the best thing that can be said about 'I Love You, Beth Cooper' is that the title is correctly punctuated."
