“Full of bodily function humor and slapstick comedy, "Alexander" feels outside of director Miguel Arteta's comfort zone.” –

3/4
“While small children might get a little antsy, everyone else should find "The Lego Movie" amusing and delightful. If one of its goals is to make people want to head straight from the theater to a Lego store, mission accomplished.” –

“It doesn't reinvent the wheel and is fairly lightweight, but it features a steady stream of solid laughs and goes down easy.” –

“A recycled and contrived romantic comedy that suggests that no matter what else she might have going for her, a woman cannot have true happiness without a husband.” –

One Direction: This Is Us (2013)

2.5/4
“Exceptionally superficial. There is hardly any mention of the music itself. The members never once discuss how they feel about their music, what it means to them or what messages they are trying to send.” –

“A routine yet charming underdog tale, "Turbo" is affable and amusing from start to finish, suitable for kids of just about any age while not boring the adults who tag along.” –

“To be fair, the ambition behind Grown Ups 2 is nothing more than to give people a few laughs on a summer afternoon or evening, but still, lazy does not even begin to describe even that half-effort.” –

Warm Bodies (2013)

3/4
“At its best, "Warm Bodies" - a rather conventional romance, outside of the fact that one of the two people falling in love isn't alive - has an easygoing, modest appeal.” –

People Like Us (2012)

“"People Like Us" flirts with greatness. The performances are strong and the characters easy to care about. But the themes are muddled by Sam's drawn-out duplicity, and the parts fail to add up to a cohesive whole.” –
