Gone Baby Gone 15 (Contains very strong language, strong violence and hard drug use)
Gone Baby Gone film poster

Rating: 3/5 3 stars

As an ambitious, if somewhat imperfect, first-time effort from actor-turned-director Ben Affleck, Gone Baby Gone should haunt you long after the credits roll.
Prom Night 15 (Contains moderate violence and sustained threat)
No image available

Rating: 1/5 1 stars

This remake of the 1980 slasher film is at least a different story than its predecessor, but it's not very good one.
Superhero Movie 12A (Contains moderate sex and drug references and one use of strong language)
No image available

Rating: 2/5 2 stars

This latest churn-'em-and-burn-'em genre parody flick offers a handful of sophomoric (in a good way) and worthwhile laughs to even the most serious-minded comic-book fans.
Ruins, The 18 (Contains strong bloody violence and gore)
No image available

Rating: 1.5/5 1.5 stars

The lesson to be learned from this adaptation of Scott B. Smith's best-selling novel seems to be: "Don't trust the plants." The lesson for potential moviegoers, however, might best be: "Stay at home."
Charlie Bartlett 15 (Contains strong language and frequent drugs references)
Charlie Bartlett film poster

Rating: 3/5 3 stars

Much like its title character, Charlie Bartlett just doesn't fit in with its peer group (teen movies and psychology dramedies). And both the character and movie go to show you that sometimes it's good--in this case very good--not to fit in.
Air I Breathe, The 15 (Contains strong language, violence and sex references)
Air I Breathe, The film poster

Rating: 3/5 3 stars

Like Babel or Crash, The Air I Breathe comes together with clever precision and crosses all sorts of cultural boundaries.
Smart People 15 (Contains strong language and soft drug use)
Smart People film poster

Rating: 2/5 2 stars

Some good performances and witty dialogue still can't lift this mildly entertaining but unexceptional comedy into a must-see. Really smart people will probably wait for the DVD release.
Caramel PG (Contains mild sex references, language and one drug reference)
Caramel film poster
Excellent Lebanese chick-flick about the comings and goings in a salon
Better Man, The 12A (Contains one use of strong language and moderate sex and sex references)
Better Man, The film poster

Rating: 2.5/5 2.5 stars

Surprise, surprise: Roscoe Jenkins, formulaic though it may be, is funnier and more tender than you'd ever expect. Think Meet the Parents-meets-Def Comedy Jam.
What Happens in Vegas 12A (Contains moderate sex references and language)
What Happens in Vegas film poster
Diaz and Kutcher prove the romantic comedy is as romantic and comedic as ever - superb stuff!
