  1. Ice Road: Vengeance hits all the beats of a standard action movie as subtly as an out-of-control vehicle tumbles down a precipitous incline before crashing and bursting into flames. There’s nothing fun or exciting or even interesting here.
  2. Is the fare for The Last Bus worth it? Spall’s performance ensures that the answer is a resounding yes! But, there is a caveat: viewers certainly shouldn’t expect a ride filled with joy and laughter.
  3. By its conclusion, Paranormal Activity: Next of Kin accomplishes its task of delivering a suitable level of scares in time for the witching season.

    When this actor (Swank) steps into the right role, she wears and inspires it like Denzel Washington.
  4. The production values on Dirty are so painfully amateurish that it is often hard to determine what is happening. The cinematography is murky and shaky, the editing is dull and clumsy, and the sound recording isn't exactly pristine. Not that any of this matters when you have a script where every third word is scatological.

    Regardless, what probably made the show so tolerable and popular was the fact that each episode was under a half an hour long. This movie is about 84 minutes long and gets tiresome after the first 20 minutes or so.
  5. The idea of a gay version of "American Pie" might not seem too tasty, but Another Gay Movie offers a fabulous surprise in not only matching that rude boy classic's unapologetic rude humor but by establishing its own identity as a genuinely funny and often touching coming of age comedy.

    This film marks for Jon Voigt a concerted effort to unseat Christopher Walken in the competition for the Czarship of sneering, wheezing, Machiavellian, all-around weird guys. He spends much of his time standing around making a face like Beavis does when he's really freaked out.
  6. Visually imaginative and energetic.
  7. Easily one of the most lackadaisical movies I've seen. Don't get me wrong, the plot is entertaining enough, and there are some genuine laughs, but almost everyone in the movie is half-a--ing it.

    Garris wrote the screenplay himself and adds one significant improvement over the original short: changing the date of the story from 2001 to 1969.
  8. When a film is more conducive to a scholarly dissection than a consumerist examination, the film is incredibly clever, pragmatic, or pretentious. In the case of Domino, it's all of the above.

    Thankfully, there's the relatively-charismatic and cheeky Ice Cube hogging the lens.

    An unnecessary sequel to the equally unnecessary "Bruce Almighty."
  9. It is fascinating how Elordi takes something so deadly and still manages to maintain a shimmering vulnerability.
  10. So think of it this way: Miracle at St. Anna is a Spike Lee joint that possesses a European texture in the vein of Guillermo Del Toro and Jean Pierre-Jeunet. Imaginative, thought-provoking, and intense.
  11. A Score to Settle reveals itself as a swarm of cliches that ring louder than bullets.
  12. From the plotting and the characterizations to the explosions and excessive use of blue light filters, everything about Bad Company has been done and seen before.
  13. A fun movie. It accomplishes exactly what it sets out to do. It’s a great first date movie.
  14. So remarkably free of laughs I might as well have been watching John Wayne Gacy’s home movies.
  15. Thoroughly entertaining and will possibly get you thinking about certain choices you've made in your life.
  16. Comes up short in many ways, but none more so than its failure to fulfill Penn's and Zaillian's desire to provide the catalyst for political sea change.
  17. It used to be that the main allure of features was that they could deliver what cable couldn't, but now it's the other way around and one of the biggest problems with Analyze That is that it doesn't show us anything new or really funny, certainly nothing that we can't get on HBO.
  18. The marriage of Johnson, Reynolds, and Gadot is beautiful, and they support one another incredibly well.
  19. Figgis has spent too many years crafting thoughtful, innovative films to have much of a knack for storytelling this mechanical and many are the moments when he does indeed seem to have been asleep behind the wheel.
  20. Both Democrats and Republicans take it on the chin here, although the left-leaning bias is obvious.

    The movie contains not one surprise, not one shock, not one scare, not one bit of interest for any moviegoer over the age of ten (mentally or physically).

    Performances alone cannot save an uninspired script. The story is not bad per se, but it’s not original or inspired and therefore Making Babies wallows in mediocrity, when it needed to make a choice between going for real laughs or have something profound to say about having children to make the journey worth taking.
  21. It makes no sense, but then again neither does much of anything in The Country Bears.

    If you’re going in hoping for something the whole family can genuinely connect with on a deeper level, you’ll be disappointed. It’s a kids’ movie, plain and simple, and there’d be no way I’d see this if I didn’t have kids.
