Review of Zombieland (2009)

Review of District 9 (2009)

By Christopher Orr (399) for The New Republic (897) on 13 Aug 2009

District 9 succeeds brilliantly as an exercise in style, but the style promises a level of substance the film never quite delivers…

Review of G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra (2009)

By Christopher Orr (399) for The New Republic (897) on 10 Aug 2009

Review of Julie & Julia (2009)

By Christopher Orr (399) for The New Republic (897) on 06 Aug 2009

By Christopher Orr (399) for The New Republic (897) on 25 Jun 2009

If it sounds as though the script (credited to Ehren Kruger, Robert Orci, and Alex Kurtzman) was written in serial-novel form during an all-night…

Review of The Girlfriend Experience (2009)

By Christopher Orr (399) for The New Republic (897) on 07 Jun 2009
