	Title Critic	Review Date	Rating	Quote
1.	9 Rafer Guzman	09/09/09	Good (Not Great)	"...filled with terrifically intricate action and clever details, though more care could have been taken with Pamela Pettler's script."
2.	12 Rounds John Anderson	03/28/09	Moderate	"The future of vacuous action movies is clearly with the likes of Cena, humans who resemble characters from video games, albeit without the acting chops."
3.	127 Hours Rafer Guzman	11/19/10	Very Good	"For all the hype surrounding the film, its sense of understatement is what makes it so compelling."
4.	17 Again Rafer Guzman	04/17/09	Good (Not Great)	"Let's be honest, fellas: What would you do if you woke up looking like the star of Disney's 'High School Musical'? Probably re-lose your virginity and then some."
5.	2 Days in New York John Anderson	08/24/12	Moderate	"...more irritating than funny.... based on hackneyed sitcom conventions, albeit racier, more vulgar and with a French accent. C'est la comédie."
6.	2012 Rafer Guzman	11/13/09	Weak	"Full of ludicrous dialogue and wide gaps in logic, this is a camp classic in the making."
7.	2016: Obama's America Rafer Guzman	08/28/12	Poor	"...an attempt at character-assassination... D'Souza's aim is beyond poor; he seems to be holding his rifle the wrong way around.... hammers at suspicions, not issues..."
8.	21 and Over Rafer Guzman	03/02/13	Poor	"...a collegiate comedy apparently aimed at a fresh new generation of bigots. Misogynists and homophobes, too.... The worst treatment is saved for women..."
9.	21 Jump Street Rafer Guzman	03/16/12	Good (Not Great)	"...works best as a commentary on the ever-changing and always baffling rules of youth culture... Even in a teen-movie spoof, there's always room for sincerity."
10.	30 Minutes or Less Rafer Guzman	08/12/11	Moderate	"...occasionally amusing but mostly formulaic... The movie treats its characters as too stupid to take seriously."
11.	42 (2013) Rafer Guzman	04/12/13	Good (Not Great)	"Bolstering the film is a fine support cast.... it seems to get its details right, but its central figure remains more a symbol than a person."
12.	50/50 (2011) Rafer Guzman	09/30/11	Good (Not Great)	"...a funny, honest and at times moving account of a young dude's battle with the Big C."
13.	56 Up John Anderson	01/11/13	Very Good	"Apted creates a graceful back-and-forth from the earlier films to the present... the experience of seeing people who have lived so much on screen is quite profound."
14.	A Better Life (2011) Rafer Guzman	07/08/11	Good (Not Great)	"Moving and beautifully acted, if politically naive."
15.	A Cat in Paris (Une vie de chat) John Anderson	07/13/12	Outstanding	"Ever wonder where your cat goes when you let him out? If he's as versatile as Dino, the title character of 'A Cat in Paris,' he may be moonlighting as a burglar's assistant..."
16.	A Dangerous Method Rafer Guzman	12/23/11	Moderate	"Sounds juicy, but it's disappointingly dry, with too much talk and precious little action."
17.	A Good Day to Die Hard Rafer Guzman	02/14/13	Weak	"...an ancient throwback, with sneering Russkis, weapons-grade uranium, even a showdown in Chernobyl... so dated, its climactic explosion engulfs a statue of Lenin."
18.	A Good Old Fashioned Orgy Rafer Guzman	09/02/11	Poor	"Aims for crazy, sexy and cool, but ends up crass, smarmy and hopelessly square."
19.	A Haunted House Roger Moore	01/12/13	Poor	"Marlon Wayans wrings every last down-and-dirty giggle out of a single joke... he does his best to drive a comical stake through the heart of horror's hottest franchise..."
20.	A Late Quartet John Anderson	11/08/12	Good (Not Great)	"...both highbrow metaphor and soap opera.... the movie needs a bit of juice, although watching Walken deliver such a measured performance creates tension enough..."
