  1. Nothing Cooper does is organic or authentic, and his show-off performance is always stilted. He arduously thinks through every single choice — it’s time to scream into a pillow; cue the laugh; ready, set, cry. Nobody goes to a movie to watch actors ponder their next beat. We want to feel, and his overwrought turn does not allow us to.
  2. Pugh, a sensational actress, keeps our interest as she grows increasingly suspicious and sees disturbing visions in mirrors and on windows. She brings class and gravitas to a movie that would otherwise be kinda trashy.
  3. The movie is no more than a TV sitcom stretched to feature length. All that's missing is the laugh track.

    An earnest, well-meaning film.

  4. The film tends to be pretentious and melodramatic; and Grant, better suited to comic roles, gives a heavy-handed performance.
  5. At 52, Elvira (Cassandra Peterson) still looks a treat and, more important, effortlessly wields her double entendres like a Romanian Mae West.
  6. Driven is a lot like a DeLorean: Looks great, but moves slow — if it even moves at all.
  7. A downer that too often resorts to melodrama.
  8. It's hard to feel anything but disappointment and boredom by the time the picture grinds to a mystical ending.

  9. If you're going to make a documentary about Leonard Cohen, the singer-songwriter, you should have him perform some of his better-known melodies, like "Suzanne."
  10. It has cult item stamped all over it, and fans of (severely) experimental cinema might see it as a revelation. Most others will find that watching this movie is like having your senses beaten with a rake.
  11. Shot on ugly digital video with Troma-grade special effects, campy humor and frighteningly bad acting, Zombie Strippers should provide many laughs for stoners watching it on video.
  12. Despite being a She-Hulk who’s seemingly impervious to physical pain, Jolie turns in her best performance in a while — arguably in over a decade. She’s relaxed, determined and maternal here, and connects well with Little, who is a big talent.
  13. Gunning for the near-annual Ugly Makeup Oscar, Aniston proves, as always, a modestly gifted actress, only this time with scars and weedy hair.
  14. An old-fashioned soaper that will please or not, depending on a viewer's tolerance for schmaltz.
  15. Joe
    David Gordon Green’s Joe largely succeeds in immersing us in a rural world of cruelty, ugliness, decay, neglect and aggression, but if there is a point to it all, I couldn’t find it.
  16. The director, Queens-born Adam Watstein, who also edited and co-produced, deserves credit for making a film with modest resources.
  17. By far the best scenes are shared by Sneider and his struggling but devoted mother, played by the seldom-seen Amanda Plummer.
  18. Overall it's got two left feet - and charm is in dangerously short supply.
  19. Director-writer Abe Forsythe (“Down Under”) nails a handful of funny juxtapositions, but too often leans into mean-spirited and tired yuks. As far as red flags for lameness go, fat-kid and pooping your pants jokes are, well, dead giveaways.
  20. Despite an empowered female protagonist, manages in its own way to be as misogynous as "In the Company of Men."
  21. The first “John Wick” was taut and nasty, a potent slug of B-movie. This one is so enamored of its own extravagance that, on more than one occasion, I was reminded of “Zoolander 2.”
  22. An affable comedy that, unfortunately, has too many characters and subplots for its own good. The film also could do without the stereotypical character of a gay wedding planner who is supposed to be funny -- but is just embarrassing and clichéd.
  23. Has its moments, but overall the effect is uneven.
    • New York Post
  24. Despite some fancy editing, Forget Baghdad is forgettable.
  25. PAGING Pedro Almodovar! We have a movie badly in need of your help.
  26. Alas, the complications don't arrive nearly quickly enough for the overlong and slow-paced Lucky to really cook.

    If you don’t think “All About Eve” was a documentary, you’ve never dated an actor. That classic show-business paranoia is the subtext that drives Gemini Man, an action flick with a twist.
  27. A gorgeously shot endurance test that is impossible to get through on anything less than a full night's sleep and a double shot of espresso.
  28. Robert Zemeckis’ film “Here” is an object lesson in how to take a touching idea and make an extremely annoying movie out of it.
