36%
“It's the first time I've watched a David Gordon Green movie and found myself wishing I was in the capable hands of a set-'em-up-knock-'em-down director like Jay Roach.” –

Steve Jobs (2015)

The Walk (2015)
83%
“For at least the duration of the 25-minute wire sequence, The Walk is a breathless, exhilarating moviegoing experience. It's just not much of a movie.” –

Tomorrowland (2015)
49%
“We like apocalyptic futures, one character says, because they ask nothing of us; Tomorrowland can't quite sell the alternative, but at least it dares to imagine something different.” –

Mad Max: Fury Road (2015)
97%
“Fury Road is also one of the best action movies of the decade, a punk Last Judgment with manic invention and depraved wit on display in every frame.” –

The Boy Next Door (2015)
12%
“You always have to wonder why anybody says yes to a project like this one, but it's a particularly strange choice on Lopez's part, since she's done her best work in movies that dare to empower her.” –

Mortdecai (2015)
12%
“Mortdecai isn't particularly funny, but it's also not the Pistachio Disguisey 2015 train wreck the Internet has spent the last few months anticipating. It's brainless, but it's painless.” –

X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014)
90%
“The plot is about a fearful society whose expansion of its security apparatus has unintended consequences, but Singer doesn't even touch the story's topical resonances... There's also no real moral quandary to be grappled with.” –

The Raid 2 (2014)
83%
“This is an absurdly violent film, but it's too in love with the physical genius of its actors to really feel sadistic.” –

Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit (2014)
55%
“I'm aware that commercial and cultural forces require everything to be rebooted triennially with fresher, hotter stars. But this is the second time the Jack Ryan franchise has rejected a youth transplant.” –

The Grand Budapest Hotel (2014)
92%
“In its own silly, artificial way, it's the first Anderson film to acknowledge the existence of a world outside its own little toy box and to ground its characters' nostalgia in something resembling actual historical reality.” –

Underworld (2003)
31%
“It takes a premise that should have made for primo goth froth ... and renders it (forgive me) bloodless, even when the corn syrup flows by the gallon.” –

2 Fast 2 Furious (2003)

Star Trek: Nemesis (2002)
38%
“John Logan clones Enterprise skipper Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart), geek-relatable android Data (Brent Spiner), and -- less successfully -- 1982's Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan.” –
