    Kidman is stuck in this pomo movie about the making of a TV-show remake. It’s "Being John Malkovich for Morons."
    • 44 Metascore

    Writer-director Walter Hill follows up last year’s nuanced, underrated Wild Bill with this numskull, overwrought shoot-’em-up.
    • 70 Metascore

    Gunner Palace too often makes the grunts look like mean slackers -- precisely the opposite, one presumes, of what was intended.
    • 54 Metascore
    • 33 Ken Tucker
    Director Ken Kwapis fills the movie with feeble references to Planet of the Apes and King Kong that don’t amuse adults and sail over the heads of tykes who snicker most at the raspberries Dunston blows at anyone he meets.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 30 Ken Tucker
    Mostly stiff acting and intentionally flat, banal dialogue.
    • 32 Metascore
    • 25 Ken Tucker
