Noah
Director Darren Aronofsky offers a spectacular and often moving story, but it’s obviously not the story of Noah.
Cesar Chavez
Cesar Chavez offers a compelling and inspiring portrait of one man’s courageous crusade to change an unjust status quo for the better.
Sabotage
Arnold Schwarzenegger’s movie career reboot attempt continues—this time in a very serious and growling cop drama. Looks like he needs some better life coach advice, though, ’cause he should have let this nasty offer on the table.
Divergent
This dystopian sci-fi saga has earned more than a few Hunger Games comparisons. Or is it more like The Giver?
Taken
Liam Neeson is a fiercely protective retired CIA agent whose daughter is kidnapped by sex traffickers. He does nothing less than everything to get her back.
Bad Words
This flick may not be as scary as suffering from defecaloesiophobia or as painful as pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis, but it comes close on both counts.
Veronica Mars
So Veronica Mars, as satisfying as it might be for fans, feels more like a tragedy to me.
The Single Moms Club
When their kids get in trouble at school, five mothers come together to throw a school dance—and form surprisingly touching (if occasionally crass) friendships along the way.

Need for Speed is not a movie about the subtle nuances of character transformation. It’s a souped-up, turbocharged melodrama.
The Grand Budapest Hotel
The Grand Budapest Hotel is being called Wes Anderson’s best movie yet. But is this dollhouse dramedy merely good at being quite bad?
