    Furious 7
    The only grace note in this otherwise determinedly graceless movie is the classy way Walker’s exit is handled.

    The Salt of the Earth
    Most of the photographs on view in The Salt of the Earth bear witness to great suffering, and what they exalt is not the photographer’s eye but the fearful humanity that binds us all.

    Serena
    Director Susanne Bier and screenwriter Christopher Kyle (no, not the man depicted in “American Sniper”) aim for a tragic monumentality but hit very wide of the mark.

    Danny Collins
    The movie becomes, perhaps inadvertently, a celebration of selling out.

    The Gunman
    I doubt The Gunman will do much to advance Penn’s foray into action-hero bankability, and that’s probably a good thing. He’s too fine an actor to be mired in nonstop shootouts while flashing his pecs and looking scowly.

    Seymour: An Introduction
    I don’t believe I’ve ever seen a movie that better conveys the sheer passion both performer and listener have for great music.
