The Dark Knight (2008)
94%
“The Dark Knight may not supply a happy ending, but there is a feeling of exhilaration as Batman rides off from the pursuing cops, and the realization that this is another big step forward for comic book movies.” –

1/10
“If you're looking for a substitute viewing experience chock full of bright colors and erratic animation, you're better off staring at a smartphone for an hour and a half.” –

Snatched (2017)
36%
3/10
“Despite casting two talented leads as a dysfunctional mother/daughter duo, Snatched feels incredibly uninspired. The movie fails to rely on the endearing charm of Goldie Hawn or the sporadic and spontaneous humor of Amy Schumer.” –

2.5/10
“Too soulless to recommend and too serious to have a good time with, Blood Wars is yet another uninspired installment in a flat saga.” –

4/10
“Instead of running full force with the conceit, Perry's own directorial limitations hinder the finished product.” –

“As a movie of any sort, it's entirely self-serving and exists solely to cash in on audiences desperate for any sort of horror film fix.” –

Krampus (2015)

The Danish Girl (2015)

5/10
“The Danish Girl is two-thirds of a lavish but harmless period piece. The final thirty minutes or so descends into becoming a preachy and overly melodramatic statement.” –

Legend (2015)

5/10
“Legend succeeds at being a showcase for Hardy's talent. Hardy is in top form here but the film around him is not quite up to snuff.” –

Pan (2015)

“Pan was two hours of eye candy in place of hollow storytelling. What could have been a unique spin on Peter Pan was replaced by a film overwhelmed by its own spectacle.” –
