• Candy Shop War, The by Brandon Mull (2007)

  [6/10]

  "Mull has created a fun, compelling story that in spite of some characterization problems provides an adventure that both kids and adults can enjoy."

• Jetée, La directed by Chris Marker (1967)

  [6/10]

  "La Jetée shows the power of the briefest of memories to instill a life with hope. Marker's presentation as a series of stills emphasizes the periodic and fleeting nature of memory."

• Night at the Museum directed by Shawn Levy (2006)

  [5/10]

  "You don't want to think too hard about the premise or the motivations behind the characters, but you can have a few good laughs watching Stiller in a typical slapstick role."
