Neil Young Journeys

“Enjoyable…the doc will make you believe music can still be an intimate experience.”

Total Recall

“A dull sci-fi slog…Implant a positive memory and watch the original version on DVD instead.”

Where Do We Go Now?

“Director Nadine Labaki creates a genre mash-up that hardly gets to the heart of the matter.”

The Dark Knight Rises

“Feels epic…but this final chapter doesn’t necessarily reach its full potential.”

The Amazing Spider-Man

“Average reboot of the series that offers slight tweaks but never commands the mythology as its own.”

To Rome with Love

“Only one of the vignettes truly stands out which makes for an uneven, unsatisfying overall product.”

Ted

“Seems to understand a feature film needs more substance than a 30-minute TV show can provide.”

Magic Mike

“Evokes ‘Boogie Nights’ without the pathos, reveling in a theatrical form of sexual entertainment.”

Moonrise Kingdom

“A good film and a worthy entry into Anderson’s catalog, but it feels more like a summer fling.”

Brave

“Isn’t what you’d expect from a studio whose focus has always been great storytelling.”

Rock of Ages

“Ridden with cliches, unimaginative jokes…a disservice to the music it borrows.”

That’s My Boy

“Embraces its R-rating, indulging in cursing and nudity while re-sharpening the fangs of Sandler.”
