The Secret Life...
OK 17 Points 2016

Animated , cute, apparently a family favorite according to other ratings sites, but I thought it was Meh – mostly because they violated the golden rule of kids movies – including some subtle humor for the parents.

Café Society
Really Great 17 Points 2016

Jessie Eisenberg and Kristen Stewart in this unmistakably Woody Allen movie. So good in fact, that they channeled Woody and Diane Keaton in the setting of 1930’s Hollywood. The blend of Bronx Jewishness amongst Hollywood glitz is a combination that made for some great character shticks… great…

The Do-Over
OK 17 Points 2016

Adam Sandler and David Spade attempt to revive their heydays in comedy with an Ok outcome. Its funny in a predictable way and somewhat more refined than the same shtick they did over 15 years ago, but still, nothing to rush out and go see.

Great 17 Points 2016

Very Good 66 Points 2016

Andy Samberg and his Lonely Island confreres Akiva & Jorma go big in Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping, Justin Bieber big. The Biebs and other hip white popstars from Ringo Star to Adam Levine are the target of this big budget satire. A couple dozen celebrity cameos goose the Grammy Quotient, …
