Eddie the Eagle

Kung Fu Panda 3
As in past entries, the goofball, underachieving panda protagonist has a lot more than dumplings dumped on his plate.
The Finest Hours
Disney’s The Finest Hours feels like an old-fashioned adventure yarn that wants to inspire as much as thrill.
Norm of the North
Jokes about what adults will be able to, um, “bear” aside, this is really a pretty awful kid’s film.
The Masked Saint
The idea of a professional wrestler becoming a pastor might seem, well, preposterous. But that’s the part that’s actually “inspired by true events.”
Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Road Chip
What can you say about yet another Chipmunk movie? Surely nothing all that surprising. Or even enlightening.
Star Wars: The Force Awakens
It’s not just the Force awakening in Episode VII. It’s the franchise’s charm. And maybe its life lessons, too.
The Letters
Mother Teresa’s story is strong enough to inspire us, no matter how it’s presented. And so The Letters challenges each of us.
