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.

The Dogs of War
OK 17 Points 1981

Got African dictator coup? It used to be cliche, but its been a while – so I indulged myself in this action movie sleeper. In the end, I was entertained, but not overly impressed. Decent action, but not enough of it. Classic Christopher Walken drama – but slightly over done. A lot of time for c…

The Eagle
OK 83 Points 2011

Cravenly exploitative and sporting a bad title, The Eagle mostly lays an egg. While it’s kinda worth watching for hard-bitten war movie guys, slumming history buffs should steer clear. As one of those stories that starts where the legend leaves off, the history is tripe. Fortunately the prod…

Very Good 66 Points 2014

Barney Ross makes his third and likely last big screen appearance in The Expendables 3, an overstuffed moviestar montage. Sylvester Stallone has gathered a new crop of kick-ass action heroes to go along with his returning set of aging action heroes. Add Mel Gibson as the super-villain and you e…

Good 66 Points 1966

Good, legendary, and disappointing. Yes Sergio Leone’s classic is a good movie, legendary even. Disappointing too, a bit mannered and dangerously close to self-parody given its protracted length.

Whining out of the way, let’s now sing the praises of The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.

Very Good 83 Points 2012

Part 1 of the The Hobbit trilogy is an oft charming visual feast. Wait. Part 1? Trilogy?

The Hobbit ain’t no trilogy! It is now, at the movies.
