Hot Pursuit
Doesn't Feel Worthy of Witherspoon's Talents
Both female leads are more caricatures than characters, drawn in broad strokes with exaggerated features. But then, so is everyone else in the...

Sparks Adaptation
The Longest Ride
Works for Both 'Rom' and 'Com'
A sweetheart of a movie that may not break new ground but is almost certain to please its target audience. It's a girls'-night-out film that some...

Wan's Direction, Walker's Last Film Highlight
Furious 7
There are holes in the plot big enough for all those fancy cars to drive through side-by-side, but this is about explosions, fighting, fun, fast...

Colorful Characters Prove There's No Place Like
HOME
A delightful movie. Not groundbreaking or amazing or the greatest movie ever, but charming and sweet with genuinely funny moments.

Run All Night
Not Quite
Taken 7
, but Close Enough
I’d love to say this is Neeson as you've never seen him before, but it's actually Neeson as we've seen him many times before. Not an uplifting...

Just Relax and Enjoy a Very Uplifting
McFarland, USA
The kind of heart-warming story Disney was once known for, one the whole family can enjoy together and leave feeling glad they came.

Sponge Out of Water
Delivers on Fun, But without Much Depth
Ten years after The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, the award-winning cartoon is back on the big screen with a new adventure.

We Try Not to Gush Too Much Over
Black or White
Forces its characters—and the audience—to face up to how they really feel about race and each other all while telling a riveting story.

Surprise!
Paddington
an Engrossing Kids' Film with Charm and Loveliness for All
The trailers don't do it justice; beneath the film's exterior is a lot of heart and cinematic magic, and very little troublesome content.

Annie
Update Fails to Cast Hope, Impact Emotions
Flat, mostly dull, but gets points for trying, and certainly works better than the star-studded but hopelessly lame 1982 film.

Nothing Great about
Penguins of Madagascar
, but Nothing Awful, Either
Great cinema? Not so much. But it is a family film that really is fun for the whole family, with a message about what's on the inside.

From Heartbreaking to Hopeful,
The Theory of Everything
Has a Bit of, Well, Everything
It's all so well done. Each exquisitely lit, perfectly framed scene is a feast for the eyes, and Redmayne's performance is inspired.

The Book of Life
Deals More in Death and Questionable Truth
Full of humor, charming characters, and some interesting life lessons, but quite a lot of it is about death and what happens after.

The Good Lie
Makes for a Good Reminder
A powerful movie about family, love, faith and being found. The story of Sudanese refugees comes to life with grace, humor, and dignity.

Inspired by
The Song
of Solomon, but Feels More Like Ecclesiastes
The Song may not make it to the top of the charts but it is (loosely) inspired by Scripture and might be excellent for date night.

This is Where I Leave You
: At the Opening Credits?
Has a fabulously talented cast with authentic-feeling relationships. So what's the downside to this film? It is wildly inappropriate.

Cowabunga!
Turtles
Shells Out Action + Attitude
With fun nods to pop culture and sci-fi classics, it’s a fast-paced, high-action story that takes no prisoners.

Into the Storm
Looks Good, Sounds Good, Feels... Blah
Let’s get the inevitable comparison out of the way: Twister, this ain't.
