Here's how the Tomato Awards work:
- Limited releases are defined as opening in 500 or less theaters at initial release. Platform releases, movies initially released under 500 theaters but later receiving wider distribution, fall under this definition.
- Foreign releases are defined as non-English language films.
- Each critic from our discrete list gets one vote, all weighted equally.
Welcome to RT�s 2008 Golden Tomato Awards, in which we honor the best-reviewed movies of the year. From action-packed blockbusters to thought-provoking documentaries, we�ve got the movies that won the critics� hearts in 2008 -- and probably inspired you as well.
In 2008, major releases like The Dark Knight and WALL-E reigned at the box office, while independent films like The Wrestler and Man on Wire rewarded film fans willing to go off the beaten track of the multiplex. All of these films and many more received high praise from critics in 2008, but which ones were really the best-reviewed movies last year? Which of these films -- along with the rest of the pundits� favorites from 2008 -- will
go home with our coveted Golden Tomato Award?
