Legend of the Guardians
Kiko Martinez
“A darkly-imagined technical wonder…a rare case where 3-D adds to the experience.”
“A darkly-imagined technical wonder…a rare case where 3-D adds to the experience.”
“A taut but mostly formulaic crime drama with deep-seated tension that never boils over.”
“Despite Emma Stone’s enjoyable performance, the film is all snap and no substance.”
“Phoenix deserves credit…but it turns out to be a curiosity piece at best.”
“An unnerving thriller that paces itself like a minimalist film…with a gritty darkness.”
“Saturated in wholesomeness and uninteresting narration from both lead characters.”
“Entertaining mayhem and political satire…with the aesthetics of a hardcore vigilante film.”
“A tame and tensionless art-house spy movie…with glacial pacing.”
“Like most wannabe Apatowesque comedies it has neither the charm nor enough laughs.”
“Might have been more effective if the carefree style wasn’t so meaningless at times.”
“Not engaging unless you’re entertained by big-budget pissing contests.”
“Despite a lack of hearty laughs, this is the kind of dramedy where it feels just as good to smile.”
