Movie Reviews Archives
Too Many Recycled Parts Clutter
Earth to Echo
A shallow slog of a movie that never delivers the magic, fun or creativity of all the films (E.T., The Goonies, etc.) it aspires to be.
Tammy
Takes the Long, Long Road to Redemption
Amusing, but difficult to endorse. A good message on taking responsibility for a lousy lot in life is lost in a lack of good taste.
Faith Meets Fear in
Deliver Us from Evil
Like 2013's The Conjuring, Deliver Us from Evil is reportedly inspired by true events, and drags its viewers into a terrifying realm.
Knightley & Ruffalo Make Beautiful Music in
Begin Again
Thanks to winning performances, a catchy soundtrack, and storytelling that's sincere, Begin Again has a good thing going.
Gratuitous Action Lives on in
Transformers: Age of Extinction
Transformers: Age of Extinction is a reboot of sorts. Mark Wahlberg plays a Texas widower raising a 17-year-old daughter.
Obvious Child
Collapses under Pro-Choice Message
Dubbed "the abortion comedy," Obvious Child is about a young New York stand-up comic named Donna Stern who becomes pregnant.
Jersey Boys
Goes Behind the Music of the Four Seasons
Sweet but sordid, a darker take on music that's usually identified with a more carefree, wholesome era.
Pattinson Surprises in Post-Apocalyptic Arthouse Film
The Rover
Basically a less-stylized, more realistic version of Mad Max; a completely humorless Wild West-like tale of obsession.
Alone Yet Not Alone
Only Works for Those Tired of Everything Else
Plays like a companion piece to Little House on the Prairie, but without engendering the same affection and falling dramatically flat.
Family Themes Breathe Fire into
Dragon
Sequel
Doesn't offer the same measure of surprise as the original but has different strengths of its own, including how regret and apology heal.
22 Jump Street
: At Best, a Diversion; At Worst, Crass
Doesn't take itself too seriously; the actors have a blast, creating lightheartedness. But it just had to sink into the gutter.
The Fault in Our Stars
is No Garden-Variety Tearjerker
As sad and heartbreaking as it all is, this unordinary romance explores love, mortality and the meaning of life in such a memorable way.
Edge of Tomorrow
Belongs on the Must-See List
Visceral and intelligent high-concept thrill-ride rigorously earns the accolade: "If you see only one movie this summer, see this."
The Western Deserves to Live, Not
A Million Ways to Die
Mel Brooks has nothing to worry about: Blazing Saddles this is not. In fact, the laughs are in short-supply and mostly the gross kind.
Jolie is Scary Good in
Maleficent
For a PG film, it's potentially nightmarish for youngsters. Others will find the acting, themes, and new twist on an old tale enjoyable.
