Grown Ups 2
What on earth did they do to earn their paychecks, sit around and drink beer all day until they came up with recurring plot points?

World War Z
Grades Much Higher in the Alphabet
Plenty of action, a few amusing moments, a lot of zombies, and a whole lot of Brad Pitt. There are certainly worse combinations.

Don't Crash

Pretty much a two-hour commercial for Celebrate Recovery, but as promotional videos go it's a surprisingly good and realistic one.

G.I. Joe: Retaliation
Low on Plot, High on Action
Lots of fighting and explosions punctuated by moderately clever dialogue. "Pretty much exactly what I want," my male friend told me.

Nothing Too Crude about
The Croods
A funny, family-friendly, family-affirming movie that parents will identify with and kids will love.

The Artist’s Daughter
Paints a Picture of Grace
Alexandra Kuykendall first met her father in Barcelona. He was—to her eyes, at least—an old man. She was nine.

Snitch
is Action Plus Teachable Moments
Consider it a modern "scared straight" kind of story, one that fathers and sons should consider seeing together.

Nothing Redeeming about
Beautiful Creatures
Had I not been required to write this review, I would have walked out an hour before this incoherent Southern Gothic teen romance ended.

Warm Bodies
Warms the Heart
Quirky humor and romantic love are huge parts of this oddly delightful, highly original film’s charm.

Broken City
Can't be Fixed
In this broken city the lines between good men and bad are mighty blurry. The language and flesh, however, aren't blurred at all.

3D Improves the Exceptional
Monsters, Inc.
The monsters are back in 3D this time, and it's good 3D. So what's not to love?

Journey
Worlds Away
