TRANSFORMERS: RISE OF THE FALLEN

|
AWAY WE GO
-
The wry ride there is nonetheless delightful enough to make the trip worthwhile.
|
LIFE IS HOT IN CRACKTOWN

'The Hangover' is an outrageous, entertaining, laugh-out-loud classic from beginning to end.

'Hell' brings back the thrills, the intensity and the goosebumps that horrors have been lacking for some time.

TERMINATOR: SALVATION
-
'T-4 is at best an over-stimulating concatenation of bells and whistles amounting to the cinematic equivalent of bubblegum.

|
ANGELS AND DEMONS

This homage to the Blaxploitation Era flicks from the 1970s is actually a well executed, comic crime caper.

X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE
-
There isn't much of a story or substance that will hold any interest. Fans of the comic book will certainly debate over the movie's unconventional plot.
|
JAZZ IN THE DIAMOND DISTRICT

A sobering picture which doesn’t glamorize the gangsta’ lifestyle.
|
Obsessed

A cautionary reminder that Hell still hath no fury like a woman scorned, especially when she’s a crazy, two-faced psycho.

While it's good to see the original cast back, there isn't much of a story and even less action to keep you entertained.
|
Adventureland
-
A refreshing retro comedy with depth recommended more for the message and the romance than for the shock value of its raunchy moments.
|
Monsters Vs. Aliens
-
While the 3-D effects may be the ingredient to lure parents to bring the kids out, the second half of the film will have them returning the glasses.
|
The Education of Charlie Banks
-
Entertaining enough, provided you buy into the idea that even eggheads can relate to a rude rebel without a clue.
|
Duplicity
-
The best thing going for this needlessly-complex potboiler is the chemistry between Owen and Roberts, but overall, a disappointing exercise in achingly-familiar irritainment.
|
I Love You, Man

It's a romantic comedy that's funny, poignant and works for both sexes.
|
Hunger

A fitting, posthumous tribute to a martyr who freely sacrificed his own life to highlight the horror of man’s inhumanity to his fellow man.

Simply one of the worst film this year thus far.
|
Watchmen
-
With its heavy adult-themed plot, viewers will be mixed with this artistic approach. Nevertheless, there are plenty of elements that make the film worth seeing.
|
Phoebe in Wonderland
-
The picture is worthwhile for the powerful performance of Elle Fanning alone, an emerging star steadily rising out of her sister Dakota’s shadow.
|
Carmen and Geoffrey
-
Film stands as a fitting tribute to a pair of extraordinary overachievers and as a touching portrait of over a half century of black-on-black love and of lives very well lived.

Same story, same result. Save your money and catch the original on DVD.
|
THE INTERNATIONAL
-
A script is so pathetic, the picture should never have been greenlighted.

HE’S JUST THAT NOT INTO YOU(2nd Review)
-
Don’t be duped by the promising-sounding scenarios, the material here never digs any deeper than the average episode of a cheesy TV sitcom from the Sixties or Seventies.
|
PUSH

With its kinetic pace and convoluted storyline, the film is too infuriating to hold your interest.

-
While each of the actors give compelling performances, the film is saddled with convoluted and contrived plots that makes one question what its initial intentions were.
|
Gran Torino

This cross of 8-Mile and Death Wish looks terribly dated, like the desperate last gasp of pre-Obama Era intolerance.
