Olympus Has Fallen
Good 83 Points 2013

Spectacular calamity followed by impressive vengeance makes Olympus Has Fallen an amply satisfying cinematic experience. So what if it’s jingoism. It’s extremely well executed jingoism, by jingo! Patriotic action-movie fans – like me – happen to like this sort of button-pushing entertainment…

The Internship
Good 20 Points 2013

I hate to admit it, but this 2 hour Google commercial was frequently funny. With the two-peas-in-a-pod due of Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn, along with funny up and comers, and proven formula direction by Vince Vaughn, this was no surprise. To be sure, at times I had to grimace through outrageo…

Girl Most Likely
Good 66 Points 2013

I’m not really the target audience for this movie, or at least the target gender. But I like smart comedy as much as the next guy. Well maybe more than the next guy. Most guys won’t be watching Girl Most Likely, even if it’s got Matt Dillon canoodling with an ultraMILFy Annette Bening in two …

My Awkward Sexu...
Good 66 Points 2012

From Canada comes a fresh and often funny sex comedy. It is what it says it is: high concept applied to low regions. Thus you get sleeping sex, a bright and poppy production, and a jilted accountant flying off to Toronto for pictorial proof that other girls find him attractive. Did I mention t…

The English Tea...
Good 66 Points 2013

An Instagram moment propels this fitfully funny comedy about a High School lit teacher who gets aroused by a former student, after which video evidence gets socially shared around school. It’s all very au courant.

The English Teacher keeps its sex comedy in bounds by steering clear of curre…

The Raid 2
Good 66 Points 2014

Life is cheap in Jakarta. Guys get killed. Girls get, well, you know, treated disrespectfully in The Raid 2. The fun – this being a hell of a fun movie – comes from seeing how the guys get knocked off, as it’s often spectacularly inventive and/or a complete gross-out, with a body count that …

Blended
Good 17 Points 2014

I went in to Blended with low expectations and actually left not hating it. Sandler and Barrymore still have some chemistry, and the family friendly cheese isn’t too overwhelming. Actually, I must admit to several belly-laughs and a general feeling that I got my money’s worth. Don’t go in to th…

Good 66 Points 2013

I’ve been a Kurt Russell fan since The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes, making him perhaps my favorite moviestar. He’s played Elvis, he’s played the last living man on a polar mission, he raised Kate Hudson after “marrying” my favorite comedienne Goldie Hawn and he’s still worth watching. Crunch Calho…
