The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian
Andrew Adamson shows a more confident and defined vision that works on several levels, however it’s unable to overcome a nagging feel of disconnect.

Camp Rock
The Disney tween machine continues to plug along mixing sugar-pop ballads with the simple structure of summer camp in Camp Rock. The familiarity makes for something comfortable, nothing spectacular, but mindlessly enjoyable.
Cloverfield
Cloverfield brings chaos and terror in one of the most memorable American monster films in some time.
Casshern
Like the similarly stylized Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow and, to a certain extent, 300, Casshern is more about visuals than story. It’s a CG playground where cartoon and live action collide.
Circle of Iron
Five years after his untimely death, Lee’s vision project was finally made. Whether or not it’s truly his vision, the world will never know. One thing is for sure though – this is one confusing, self indulgent and often tedious film.
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
There is a lot to become enchanted with – even if it looks as though most every character were a product of computer animation.
Catwoman
Touches on feminist ideals that are all but contradicted by a pair of skimpy leather pants.
Control Room
Important not so much in that it is a great documentary, but it raises some of the implications of our own biased media coverage.
The Corporation
The Corporation is another strike against suits, board room meetings and the brands and chain stores we know we should hate but we use anyways.

A Christmas Story
Never fails to take me back to a place of welcomed innocence yet it doesn’t make me wish I were back there.
