Ratchet & Clank
a Total Clunker
If The Lego Movie and Paddington showed the right way to adapt family movies from pre-existing properties, Rachet & Clank, pointlessly plotted with no one to root for in a low-stakes story, demonstrates how wrong it can go. Bring a watch—you'll be checking it often.

No Fairy Tale Magic for
The Huntsman: Winter's War
Three of our finest actresses join Chris Hemsworth for a tale of what occurred before Snow White and the Huntsman, as well as the events that followed it. But this strange prequel-sequel hybrid has a restless, hodgepodge quality that doesn't create a happily-ever-after feeling.

Thanks to Hanks,
A Hologram for the King
Moves Us Despite Little Action
As a salesman sent to the desert Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Tom Hanks delivers a relatable character and adds a warm glow to a relatively uneventful journey, as this book-to-movie adaptation feels far more like a novel than a cinematic adventure.

Missteps Aside, Disney's
Jungle Book
Remake is CGI Done Right
Different in tone from the 1967 original, and nowhere near the bar set by 2015’s Cinderella remake, The Jungle Book charges full-speed toward one central theme: survival. The Odyssey-like structure is easy to follow for young viewers, while the darker and more mature elements hold the attention of parents.

Newest 'Mind in Another's Body' Movie is
Criminal
-ly Average
A new but predictable entry in the "one man's memories in another man's body" genre. The cast list is impressive but the movie is ho-hum. Take your popcorn to another show and wait for this one to be rent-able, which shouldn't take long.

First-Person Action of
Hardcore Henry
Not for the Squeamish
Gamers will love this first-person frenzy of violence and death; everyone else probably not so much.

The Boss
is a Demotion for Cinematic Comedy
For a comedy titan like Melissa McCarthy, The Boss should have been an easy win. Unfortunately, poor timing, lack of character development and overall dependence on profanity for laughs ensure this riches-to-rags story remains bankrupt.

God's Not Dead
Sequel Takes 2 Steps Back for Christian Cinema
If you believe the "show don’t tell" dictum about how art should work, prepare yourself: God's Not Dead 2 is an endless stream of "telling" that shows how far Christian filmmakers have to go in creating stories that reach beyond their core audience.

Batman v Superman
Falls Short of Victory
Batman v Superman delivers an epic showdown as promised, but not before lulling viewers to sleep with a tedious, brooding lecture on the nature of gods and power.

Same Greeks, Different
Big Fat Wedding
, Fewer Laughs
We all loved My Big Fat Greek Wedding for its loud charm and its unique spin on the rom-com. But without much ground to break "17 years later but still living on the same street," the sequel hinges almost entirely on homages to its predecessor.

Allegiant
Takes a Half-Step for Halfway-There YA Finales
Must all franchise finales be divided into two parts? The Divergent Series: Allegiant—Part 1 halts the downward slide in quality of these drawn out concluding entries. It's not great, but it's a small step up from the dreary Hunger Games finale.

Miracles from Heaven
Will Make You Smile
Thanks to strong performances, a story that's funny and touching in turns, and an uplifting message, all but the most cynical will leave the theater with a fresh appreciation for everyday, out-of-the ordinary miracles.

On
Cloverfield Lane
, the Suspense is Turned Up to 10
In this 2-minute movie review, Crosswalk's Stephen McGarvey tells us just what we need to know about the mysterious and chilling 10 Cloverfield Lane without spoiling any of the movie's carefully concealed details.

Haven't You Ever Wondered about Jesus as
The Young Messiah
?
The Young Messiah offers a unique perspective on our Savior that no other story ever has, and will cause viewers to contemplate Jesus, Mary and Joseph in ways they likely never have before.

Disney's
Zootopia
Delivers a Roaring Good Time
Beneath its sunny exterior, Zootopia is a thoughtful film about the dangers of prejudice and its far-reaching effects on our community. Though a little heavy-handed at times, the film's animated charm never gets lost in the message.

Tina Fey Tackles New Territory in
Whiskey Tango Foxtrot
Tina Fey is engaging in this insightful story of a safe, boring TV producer who transforms herself into an intrepid war correspondent. In time she'll count the cost of that transformation, but first she has to get the story without getting blown up.

Eddie the Eagle
Soars Thanks to a Winning Performance
A true underdog story of hope and perseverance in the face of insurmountable odds. Those unfamiliar with the Winter Olympics may find a few baffling moments in Eddie the Eagle, but they're not enough to derail this delightful sports dramedy.

Gods of Egypt
Can't Even Ascend to Guilty Pleasure Status
A bizarre excursion into big-budget moviemaking gone completely off the rails, Gods of Egypt is a bungled, boring, monotonous amalgam of 300 and Lord of the Rings that implodes into a "What were they thinking?!" train wreck.

Triple 9
Nothing More than a Poor Man's
Training Day
In an era where modern-day police ethics are regularly called into question, Triple 9 only fuels the fire as there's nary a good guy dressed in blue here. And anyway, the dirty cop thriller has been played far better, particularly in Training Day.

Risen
Brings New Life to Bible Movies
This tale of faith and redemption marks a new chapter for biblical epics. While not perfect, Risen still delivers one of the best portrayals of Christ's death and resurrection to date, as we witness the events from the eyes of a pagan outsider.
