A merely OK movie can still be enjoyable if it’s got something outstanding about it. Primo buddies do the trick in 2 Guns. The rest of the cast and film? Less than stellar and just OK. Plus the title doesn’t help. 2 Guns is too blunt – so 2 speak. I wanted to bump up my final summa…

One enters We’re The Millers expecting to laugh. That happens, but first a bit about the movie’s subject. The title doesn’t lie. This is not a movie about smuggling or pot, though pot smuggling drives the plot. It’s about family, family values even. Well, anti-family-values to be accurat…

I read On The Road by 21 because it was necessary. I saw On The Road this weekend to be entertained. Entertaining it is, though cultural legacy aside, mad words about mad living don’t make a great movie, not without great acting and a cinematic story, neither of which On The Road has….
