The Big Sick
The Big Sick’s willingness to wade into the complexities of love and family make it surprisingly compelling. But this rom-com also wades into profanity and sexual innuendo, too.
The House
Ferell and Poehler will generate at least a laugh or two even in even the most worthless, crude and ridiculously stupid film. The House is such a film.
The Beguiled
This movie, like its characters, can seduce to no good end.
Baby Driver
Forget nitrous: This film is fueled by iPod. But like Baby himself, the movie runs into plenty of obstacles.
Transformers: The Last Knight
Michael Bay’s latest Transformer movie never transforms itself into anything worth watching.
The Book of Henry
Whatever shortfalls this movie may have, apathy is not among them.
47 Meters Down
It’s never a good sign when an audience laughs repeatedly at the plight of two terror-stricken women trapped at the bottom of the ocean.
The Journey
For fans of historical drama who want to be educated while being entertained, The Journey offers fodder for some serious pie-and-coffee discussion.
All Eyez on Me
Tupac was a rare talent, no question. But this movie based on his life is barely watchable and rarely edifying.
Rough Night
Our comedic culture is so full of these low-brow gags that the gross jokes in Rough Night barely shock, let alone provoke a laugh.
