Blog postI don't want to get into the politics on this one, but it does give a feel for how our sadly neglected troops have to deal with things in the Middle East. The story is definitely worth telling. There was way too much video-game style battle scenes for me. B
-
Blog postI enjoy Kevin Hart -- but this is a really sloppy film. I think it's the duty of actors and filmmakers to put out a better product when they know millions and millions of people are going to pay their hard-earned dollars to see it. C+
-
Blog postAn extremely well told love story. The cast, cinematography, storytelling -- everything worked for me. But this is not for folks who will turn away from same-sex kissing and foreplay. A
-
-
Blog postAs Hollywood's bad boys have kids of their own -- everything changes -- and they start making movies with both humor (broad) and compassion. A-
-
Blog postI've always felt that history should be told by comedians, or at least by writers with a good sense of humor. Here we have the crash of '08 -- with a laugh track. A-
-
Blog postI have never really been with The Force. And I don't particularly like video games. But I enjoyed the movie's pace and some good new characters. B+
-
-
Blog postQuentin Tarantino has a formula (something I've been accused of) and it mostly works here. Samuel L. Jackson and Jennifer Jason Leigh are particularly good. All of the bad folk certainly get their just desserts. Some might consider that high art. B
-
Blog postA bit disappointing. Jennifer Lawrence is wonderful, and the story has a lot of potential, but it kind of dragged for me. B-
-
-
Blog postHollywood isn't good at sequels. Rocky II-VI. Not very good. But Creed -- pretty good. Michael B. Jordan is a star. Sylvester Stallone is back in form. A-
-
Blog postMost people aren't really good at ending things. You know, like, "I really care about you, and this is all my fault, not yours, but I never want to see you again." And so, we come to the end of The Hunger Games. Like I said, we aren't good at ending things. B-
-
Blog postPoor Herman Melville might be rolling in his grave again. This is a potentially fascinating story -- badly told. C
-
-
Blog postSmart, tense, well-acted story covering the Francis Gary Powers/Rudolf Abel spy trade. A-
-
Blog postHere's the studio pitch -- "We got Vin Diesel." I have nothing against Vin Diesel, but -- D
-
Blog postLove Bill Murray. Love Barry Levinson. Didn't love this movie. C-
-
Blog postThe 700+ pages of Walter Isaacson's biography on Jobs seemed to fly in comparison with this 122 minute film. Maybe that's what happens when a talented, but crazy screenwriter tries to tell the story of a talented, but crazy marketer-provacateur. B
-
Blog postA little surprising. I left the theater feeling that in the case of Dan Rather and Mary Mapes versus George W. Bush -- the end did not justify the means. B-
-
Blog postA serious subject for a movie -- but not handled very well. Sandra Bullock was very good in the lead. C-
-
Blog postTerrific acting -- and a very good story -- but it will probably depress the hell out of you. A-
-
Blog postFrom what I've heard, audiences seem to like Goosebumps, but I am not sure I feel the same way. The light comedy and the eerie scares felt like they belonged in two different movies. And the lead seemed like he was too old for the part. The books were for 7-11 year olds. I'm not quite sure what the audience for the movie is supposed to be. C+
-
Blog postThe best thriller I've seen in years -- except that it's too good, too real, too true to be dismissed as pulp fiction. From everything I've heard and read about the drug wars, Sicario is (sadly) realistic. A+
-
Blog postThis is the perfect time for a smart, dramatic film that celebrates trying to accomplish what might seem to be impossible rather than giving up because it's too damn hard (like fixing America's schools). A
-
Blog postNot a false move in a story about the Bobby Fischer/Boris Spassky chess matches. Never a dull moment and terrific performances. A-
-
Blog postWell done and surprisingly humorous family horror tale -- until it becomes phony/artsy. B
-
Blog postAnother boyfriend from hell by the numbers. C+
-
Blog postFrench action series beginning to run on empty. C
-
Blog postA well done gangster flick about Boston's Whitey Bulger. But not in the same class as The Departed. At least not for me. Once again, we find Hollywood glamorizing gangsters and vilifying the police. B+
-
Blog postThe Odd Couple in the woods. Starts slow, stays slow (which is appropriate since the movie is about two old guys trying to hike the Appalachian Trail). But I enjoyed it. Especially Nick Nolte's performance. B
-
Blog postA story about one of my least favorite groups of people -- self-important, self-anointed "gifted" folk. And yet, I found the movie very funny and endearing. Probably my favorite film this summer. Take that, James. A
-
Blog postAn absolutely terrific cast. Darkly funny. Too gory. I'm curious about how so much acting talent got attached to such a sketchy film. B-
-
Blog postUnwatchable. At least for me. D-
-
Blog postImagine a time when two very smart, articulate, intellectual men debated the merits of the political right and left -- on national TV! That was Gore Vidal vs. Bill Buckley. A-
-
Blog postMarvel is probably doing too many movies these days. Batman was a little under par. Fantastic Four was a mess (except for the opening scenes with the kids). And the trailer for a feature with Ryan Reynolds doesn't look too promising. C-
-
Blog postVery twisty, very well-done -- the ending went a little flat. B+
-
Blog postMore gross than funny. C-
-
Blog postSince I've been on a lot of author tours, this was particularly interesting to me. And, since I know a little about David Foster Wallace, it was definitely a loaded story for me. So why am I a little ambivalent? I'm not quite sure. Maybe you can help me out? B
-
Blog postThroughout all of his antics, I've always felt Tom Cruise is a movie star. If the job here was to burnish his image, then mission accomplished. A
-
Blog postNot Woody Allen's best, not his worst. For me, it went completely off the rails in the second half. C
-
Blog postSlow going. Nicely filmed, nicely acted. Interesting idea: an elderly Sherlock Holmes tries to write a book that will correct the false image of him in fiction. B-
-
Blog postI wanted to like this -- but I just didn't care about Margo. Some pretty good dialogue. C+
-
Blog postI thought I was going to like it more. To me, it was a bit of a clever, often funny, science lesson. I wanted to get more involved with the characters, but couldn't. B+
-
Blog postNice cast -- a little bit too all over the lot for me. B-
-
Blog postDwayne Johnson is an extremely likeable film star. The special effects are pretty stunning. The script gave me an ice cream headache. C
-
Blog postA terrific cast, a lot of very good scenes, but somehow -- at least for me -- The whole isn't equal to the sum of its parts. B
-
Blog postArtful, well-played movie telling Beach Boys' Dennis Wilson's depressing story. I left the theater feeling moderately schizophrenic myself. B-
-
Blog postCorporate America creates a Frankenstein-style dinosaur. No, that's not right. Corporate America creates a Frankenstein-style dinosaur movie. I would rather have watched the Steven Spielberg sequel to Saving Private Ryan or Schindler's List. B
