Fast & Furious 6
It’s a franchise that has long-since pegged the tachometer on generating big, bold and mindless ACTION to support a larger-than-life blockbuster vibe. And this sixth movie wants you to know that the pedal hasn’t even been all the way down to the metal yet.
The Hangover Part III
There’s surprisingly little binge drinking or drug-taking in The Hangover Part III. But that’s sort of like saying there’s not as much salt in the Adriatic as there is in the Dead Sea.
Star Trek Into Darkness
Kirk, Spock, Bones and the rest of the original Enterprise crew are boldly at it again, facing one of their most daunting adversaries ever. And while the content may at times feel like a phaser blast set to stun, the messages are quite a bit more peaceful.
Peeples
Tyler Perry has lent his name and production company to this randy romantic comedy dedicated to showing us how much perfect people (and movies) aren’t.
The Great Gatsby
Some will find that this fresh-faced Baz Luhrmann/Leonardo DiCaprio movie infuses the classic book with new life. That may be good. But is it a great Gatsby?
Iron Man 3
I had hoped to be inspired. Instead, I was merely entertained. Iron Man 3 is what you’ve come to expect from a standard superhero movie
Mud
A boy finds a man who’s living in a boat that’s stuck in a tree. That may sound outlandish. But in this delta world it’s as normal as catfish pie and broken hearts.
Pain & Gain
Mark Wahlberg and Dwayne Johnson team up with Transformers director Michael Bay to tell the dark story of a bizarre real-life kidnapping gone murderously awry … in the form of a comedy.
The Big Wedding
It’s a movie that’s just like a dress. A bridesmaid’s dress. And, yes, that kind of bridesmaid’s dress.
Oblivion
Tom Cruise’s latest sci-fi actioner mashes up all sorts of things. And some of them aren’t even alien. It’s clever and mindless. It’s fun and foul. It’s instructive and destructive.
