    The Brothers Grimsby
    The film doesn't do much to satirize the spy genre, instead using its flimsy plot mostly as a scaffolding for a barrage of jokes.

    The Circle
    The film is a hokily melodramatic rise-fall-redemption story with a mostly unearned patina of greater significance.

    Burnt
    Everything in the by-the-numbers script signals that Adam must transform himself from and abusive tyrant in the kitchen to the head of a loving and fully functional family.

    Staten Island Summer
    Breaking the laws of human nature is an ancient comic convention, but it only works when it leads to a laugh.

    The Comedian
    Nearly everything in Taylor Hackford's tin-eared comedy is as ersatz as the Robert De Diro character's rage is real.

    The Color of Time
    If The Tree of Life was a contemplation of the universal mysteries and verities of life, The Color of Time is an hour spent scrolling through a stranger's family album.

    Seventh Son
    As is often the case in films like this, Seventh Son is at its weakest when it tries to leaven its brink-of-disaster gravity with a little nerdy humor.

    Taken 3
    Empowerment porn for those who long for the Cold War's clarity of purpose and American dominance in this murky age of terror.

    Braddock America
    It's mercifully free of the ruin-porn shots that turn so many contemporary films about struggling cities into self-consciously arty exercises in the romanticization of decay.
