Over the course of our more than 15-year existence, FSR has published thousands of reviews. We have reviewed movies from film festivals like Sundance, SXSW, TIFF, and Cannes. We review new theatrical and streaming releases. We even have two recurring columns — Previously On and Up Next — in which we review new and returning TV shows. And just as a fun fact, we used to give out letter grades with our reviews.

Move over Drag Me To Hell, 2009 has a new comedy king! It’s only June but I feel fairly confident calling The Hangover the funniest film of 2009. Bruno and Funny People seem like the only remaining films with a chance of beating it (the former more so than the latter), but I’m calling it now. Go see this movie! Just be sure to take a lesson from my mistake and remember to wear your rubber underwear.

Run to see ‘Pontypool,’ the other horror movie out this weekend. It’s as intelligent and exciting as the best the genre has to offer and it can be seen in theaters in select cities, and on IFC On Demand.

There is something about the craft of great storytelling, the truly magical nature of a tale so perfectly executed that just grabs the heart strings of its audience and never lets go. It’s rare, but something we should be used to from Pixar.

This week’s Foreign Objects takes a look at one of the best revenge films ever made, one of the few films guaranteed to be on any list ranking revenge movies… heck, I can’t even imagine someone putting together a Best Revenge Film list without this one ranking fairly high. Yeah. That’d be crazy.

It’s probably the most fun I’ve had sitting in a darkened theater all year, and I owe it all to Sam Raimi and Alison Lohman’s ability to make out with a dead body.

Find out if Dance Flick is more like Don’t Be a Menace or, hell, like White Chicks.

Clunky, unfocused, and defying the laws of logic, Terminator Salvation is a complete waste of time even if you love watching things blow up.
