"Star Wars: The Clone Wars" is a great start to the TV series but maybe not the best feature film. Nevertheless, kids will love it and adult "Star Wars" fans will want to check it out. I'm going to give it 7 out of 10, but I freely admit that may be generous.

Film Reviews: Kathryn Bigelow's "The Hurt Locker" doesn't bring anything new to the table of grunts-in-the-firing-line movies.

Film Reviews: "I'm Gonna Explode" is a punchy exploration of unattributable teenage angst that expands the usually male view of "Rebel Without a Cause"-type dramas.

Film Reviews: A box of cannoli long past its sell-by date, "Everybody Wants to Be Italian" is a clumsy but inoffensive romantic comedy set in and around Boston's Little Italy.

Film Reviews: A good-looking big-budgeter about intrigue and betrayal in 16th-century Spain, the project is holed by a shaky script that pushes its cardboard characters through often far-fetched situations.

Film Reviews: Unchecked histrionics overrun vivid ballistics in the Canadian World War I meller "Passchendaele" (pronounced "passiondale.").

Another intriguing take on affairs of the heart from the master of the artform with some solid performances, most notably from Javier Bardem and Rebecca Hall.

Film Reviews: The kind of slavish homage to cinema itself that's not quite as charming as it thinks but charms nonetheless.

Film Reviews: With minimal regard for acting, production values or the fundamentals of screenwriting, self-distributed romantic thriller addresses a ripped-from-the-headlines hate crime with such earnestness, writer-director-producer Jorge Ameer must have thought he was the first to tackle the subject of gay-bashing onscreen.

Film Reviews: Director Neele Vollmar's second feature, "Peaceful Times," is a 1960s-set family dramedy that doesn't quite have the stuff to make a dent at arthouses abroad.
