    The Lucky One
    So the cliches are as thick as a vat of honey. And the love story proves just as syrupy. But for those who lap up this sappy vision of romance, it contains all the key ingredients.

    Comic-Con Episode IV: A Fan's Hope
    What's missing in Morgan Spurlock's latest documentary is a key ingredient: Morgan Spurlock.

    The Cabin in the Woods
    Richard Jenkins and Bradley Whitford are particularly funny in their middle-management roles.

    The Three Stooges
    Pop culture references intermingle with the loopy trio's iconic foolishness, and the result is a movie with some big laughs, plenty of heart and terrible coifs.

    Damsels in Distress
    These are hardly damsels, but the distress will be felt by audiences watching the collection of non sequiturs, twee remarks and tangential vignettes that is Damsels in Distress.

    American Reunion
    An immature obsession with sex at 17 seems understandable. But at 30 it's getting cringe-inducing.

    Bully
    Bully forces audiences to face actions that are unthinkable, inexcusable and excruciatingly sad. It offers no solutions, only the testimony of brave youths.

    Mirror Mirror
    Singh brings cheeky humor, an eccentric sensibility and an enchanting look to his re-imagined tale.

    Wrath of the Titans
    Somewhere amid the mind-numbing barrage of action sequences there's a story based on Greek mythology. But its essence is buried amid the clatter.

    21 Jump Street
    The dialogue is fast-paced and full of pop-culture references. It all makes for an entertaining blend of buddy-cop action and irreverent teen-comedy satire.

    Casa de mi Padre
    This very funny spoof of telenovelas and classic Mexican westerns is decidedly offbeat and absurdly daffy.

    John Carter
    Though the project, based on the Edgar Rice Burroughs novel "A Princess of Mars," is ambitious, it's also bloated, dreary and humorless.

    Friends with Kids
    Friends With Kids takes a fresh and funny look at a familiar subject, with enough buoyant romance to satisfy audiences drawn to starry-eyed love stories and hopeful endings.

    A Thousand Words
    The concept is unoriginal, the scenarios aren't funny, and its message is banal. Plus, Murphy alternately hams it up and phones it in.

    Project X
    A movie about a teen party gone horribly wrong, would be every parent's worst nightmare if it weren't so inane.

    Being Flynn
    Robert De Niro has made several unwise choices in roles recently, and his belligerent wannabe writer in Being Flynn definitely adds to that list.

    Dr. Seuss' The Lorax
    Someone in Hollywood ought to speak for the trees, and The Lorax does it with verve and vibrancy.

    Act of Valor
    Employing Navy troops as stars is a clever idea for an action thriller. But the soldiers' awkward line readings are glaring enough to distract from the potency of the story.

    Wanderlust
    Some of the players are endearingly goofy in this good-natured comedy, particularly Rudd and Theroux. But Wanderlust trundles along unevenly, never reaching the cleverly raucous state it seeks.

    This Means War
    Silly action sequences grow tedious and rarely blend with the wannabe madcap comedy.

    The Secret World of Arrietty
    With its lush colors, imaginative view of ordinary objects and meticulously crafted miniature civilization, it transports viewers to an enchanting alternate storybook reality.

    Undefeated
    Deftly balancing the students' stories with that of Courtney's, the film creates a fully rounded portrait of a corner of America rarely examined.

    Chronicle
    Bolstered by the natural performances of a trio of little-known actors, the very watchable Chronicle keeps us captive throughout.

    Rampart
    Though the plot can be vague and occasionally convoluted, Harrelson is mesmerizing.

    Journey 2: The Mysterious Island
    It's a thoroughly family-friendly film, with a subtle message about the importance of father figures. Don't expect anything resembling believability, but enjoy the blend of strikingly colorful visuals and banter between odd couple Johnson and Caine, which combine for a mild escapist treat.
