    Triple 9
    It arrives prepackaged with suggested comparisons to Michael Mann's Heat that it never earns because of its dreary literal-mindedness.
    • 34 Metascore

    Zoolander 2
    The film is frequently guilty of the same obsolescence it accuses the characters of embodying.

    Hail, Caesar!
    Joel and Ethan Coen's idiosyncrasies elevate the film above the level of a mere creative exercise.

    13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi
    Of course, when the action gets underway, Bay unleashes that flashy id of his, and all of his flaws as a titan of blockbuster filmmaking come to the fore.

    Youth
    As ever, Paolo Sorrentino ironically cuts the legs out from under his protagonists' wistfulness with grotesquerie.

    Creed
    One of the Ryan Coogler film's greatest traits is its reticence, its refusal to say 10 words when two will do, or to say one word when silence says it all.

    The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 2
    It careens from carnage to group therapy so wildly that the action never gets to build and the conversations just repeat themselves.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 63 Jake Cole
    SPECTRE
    All of its revisionism centrally incorporates the history of the franchise, and the film both excels and suffers for frequently recalling its forbears.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 88 Jake Cole
    Pasolini
    Biopics ascribe titanic importance to a subject's every gesture, but Ferrara stresses the reality of creation, of its ordinary activities that nonetheless give an artist a sense of fulfillment.
