57% Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (in 3D) (2012) " The 3D conversion isn't going to change your opinion on the movie or give you a whole new moviegoing experience, but it's not bad either." — CinemaBlend.com
Posted Feb 10, 2012
2/5 27% The Vow (2012) " As likable as Rachel McAdams and Channing Tatum are, their presence is small comfort in a movie with so little else going on." — CinemaBlend.com
Posted Feb 9, 2012
2/5 53% Safe House (2012) " Less a thriller than an experiment in confusion, trying to rile up the audience by stranding them in scenes they don't understand, over and over until the climax mercifully sets us free." — CinemaBlend.com
Posted Feb 9, 2012
2/5 73% Big Miracle (2012) " Too naive for the tricky grown-up issues it tackles, but not smart or sweet enough to get away with it. " — CinemaBlend.com

Posted Jan 19, 2012
4/5 80% Haywire (2012) " A go-for-broke action thriller that only gets more exciting the more grounded and real it feels." — CinemaBlend.com
Posted Jan 18, 2012
2/5 48% Contraband (2012) " Contraband squanders its tiny bit of goodwill with a hotdogging, "gritty" attitude that's never reflected in the actual story." — CinemaBlend.com
Posted Jan 13, 2012
3/5 34% Joyful Noise (2012) " Joyful Noise is an honest delight, as corny and occasionally as preachy as a tent revival, but as open-hearted and dynamic as well." — CinemaBlend.com

Posted Dec 23, 2011
4.5/5 75% The Adventures of Tintin (2011) " Fleet and thrilling and as boundlessly energetic as its hero, The Adventures of Tintin is Steven Spielberg's most purely joyful film in at least a decade." — CinemaBlend.com

Posted Dec 9, 2011
3/5 84% My Week with Marilyn (2011) " It's entertaining enough, but a missed opportunity as well." — CinemaBlend.com
Posted Nov 25, 2011

Posted Nov 21, 2011
