3/10 8% Furry Vengeance (2010) " There is an environmental message delivered along with the goofy mayhem involved in catching the fuzzy culprits. But fair warning: once inside the theater, the audience is trapped. " — Cinemaclips.com

5/10 19% The Back-up Plan (2010) " It's nice to have Jennifer Lopez back on the big screen - delivering the lines and handling the slapstick with ease. Here's hoping she has a hit on her hands and doesn't need a back-up plan. " — Cinemaclips.com
