Get Hard
“There are a few good laughs, but there’s also a weird discomfort to the whole thing.”
Focus
“A self-assured caper. Margot Robbie exudes the energy and sexiness of a young Cameron Diaz.”
Mr. Turner
“Looks beautiful…but is diminished by the dense glob of oil paint that is the title character.”
Still Alice
“Julianne Moore anchors the film with a heartbreaking performance, likely to finally nab her an Oscar.”
Seventh Son
“The only surprise in the film is how they managed to land both Jeff Bridges and Julianne Moore.”
Project Almanac
“Solid entertainment…but the found footage offers absolutely nothing to the story.”
Blackhat
“Feels strangely abandoned, as if the studio didn’t bother to add any sort of polish to the final product.”
Big Eyes
“Rekindles enough…spirit to make you look forward to Burton’s next project with an open mind.”
The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies
“The years spent on this trilogy have burned director Peter Jackson out.”
Annie
“Wallis is fine as the title character, but lacks the plucky, gee-whiz spirit the material really needs.”
Exodus: Gods and Kings
“You’ll be exhausted after meandering through a snazzed-up version of a story you’ve seen before.”
The Homesman
“A low-key western with a mildly cantankerous performance from Tommy Lee Jones.”
