Posted Apr 26, 2013
7/10 54% Oblivion (2013) " From the get-go it's easy to assume this film will become a sci-fi classic. But as "Oblivion" crosses the threshold from the unknown to the all-too-obvious, the Tom Cruise alien adventure falls into familiar territory." — FoxNews.com
Posted Apr 18, 2013
7/10 79% 42 (2013) " A fine drama which throws no curves, allowing for an easy hit. You'll be hard-pressed to not feel inspired by film's end." — FoxNews.com
Posted Apr 11, 2013

Posted Mar 14, 2013
7/10 30% Emperor (2013) " Though "Emperor" is a mystery of which we already know the ending, director Peter Webber ("Girl with a Pearl Earring") keeps the story moving and interesting." — FoxNews.com
Posted Mar 8, 2013

Posted Mar 7, 2013
7/10 52% Jack the Giant Slayer (2013) " Bryan Singer's "Jack the Giant Slayer" is a gentle giant, a short and sweet climb that's fun all the way up the bean stalk." — FoxNews.com
