    A Good Day to Die Hard
    To paraphrase a classic of Reagan-era cinema, A Good Day to Die Hard is a bad day to stop sniffing glue.

    The Big Wedding
    It’s nearly tragic to see America’s Greatest Living Actor on the guest list for The Big Wedding, the latest limp comedy about seniors behaving badly.

    The Ugly Truth
    Mired in phoniness up to its neck. And above that, there's nothing.

    Pixels
    Long before you’ve gotten a nickel’s worth of entertainment out of this dumb, unfunny flick, you’ll be wishing for the flashing sign that says “Game over.”

    Did You Hear About the Morgans?
    Given the creator and the cast, "Morgans" is as drearily predictable as a plague of locusts.

    Little Fockers
    If instead of story and characters, your movie wish list includes projectile vomiting and erection gags, this lump of coal has your name on it.

    Legends of Oz: Dorothy's Return
    Yet if you’re old enough to read this and you find yourself at a screening, try thinking about the munchkins who worked so hard on the psychedelic scenery.

    Furry Vengeance
    The message that needs to be posted at the theater door is "No trespassing."

    Couples Retreat
    In Couples Retreat, it's Favreau, not Vaughn, who is wound up, and this vacation comedy goes nowhere.

    New Year's Eve
    The sanitized setting and sappy script are so littered with cardboard characters and crass product placements that you'll mourn for the muggers and porno theaters that De Niro cursed in "Taxi Driver."

    Hoodwinked Too! Hood VS. Evil
    Mostly "Hoodwinked Too" is playing to young video gamers, with overblown action sequences and slangy 'tude.

    30 Beats
    Where the original play "La Ronde" was a social satire about the transmission of venereal disease, 30 Beats is a sickly stepchild.

    The Last Airbender
    A toxic potion that will put children to sleep and kill his (M. Night Shyamalan) career.

    Old Dogs
    Old Dogs is so oafish, when it tosses us a biscuit, it feels like we've been smacked with a newspaper.

    All About Steve
    There are good movies to be made about romantic obsession, but the premise doesn't work if the crazy stalker isn't juxtaposed with a sympathetic victim.

    I Kissed a Vampire
    In this flick, the dark side is as bright as a cruise-ship showroom, where the singing and dancing would fit nicely, while the jokes are as dull as Disney sitcom throwaways.
