—— Breakaway (2011) Hollywood Reporter
Posted May 9, 2013
8 74% Love Is All You Need (2013) " Susanne Bier is unwilling to abandon her own clear-eyed, skeptical view of mankind and its troubles even when in a lighthearted mood." — honeycuttshollywood.com

Posted May 2, 2013
7 24% Arthur Newman (2013) " Ariola is genuinely into character, making sure you get enough glimpses into the lives of these people so you may glean a sense of what ails these damaged souls." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Apr 24, 2013
5 56% Oblivion (2013) " Your mind though tends to wander - and wonder - during all the slow bits, which is much of the movie." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Apr 18, 2013
6 77% 42 (2013) " It's not easy to steal home when you've got a halo over your head but Boseman somehow manages." — honeycuttshollywood.com

Posted Apr 5, 2013
3 48% Olympus Has Fallen (2013) " It's hard to isolate what one is rooting for here since you know the outcome even as the opening scenes take place." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Mar 21, 2013
7 69% The Croods (2013) " The Croods reps one of DreamWorks' better efforts since the action takes place in a world of startling beauty and striking life forms." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Mar 18, 2013
81% From Up On Poppy Hill (2013) " Goro Miyazaki has made a sweetly old-fashioned anime with fine painterly compositions." — Hollywood Reporter
Posted Mar 11, 2013
4 26% 21 And Over (2013) " '21 and Over' looks for laughs in all the wrong places." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Mar 7, 2013
5 60% Oz the Great and Powerful (2013) " The film directed by Sam Raimi, a man who usually works from a clear roadmap into fantastical realms, is a mess." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Mar 7, 2013
4 67% Stoker (2013) " The glee of the outrageous one gets from a true trash movie vanishes here to be replaced by a deadening sense of the filmmakers' calculation and cynicism." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Mar 1, 2013
4 47% The Sweeney (2013) " This British film's coppers are all anachronisms as are the filmmakers' attitudes toward their anti-heroes and female characters." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Mar 1, 2013
6 52% Jack the Giant Slayer (2013) " Studios will continue to roll these CGI, 3D fantasias out, but the question I'm raising is why does Bryan Singer keep getting involved?" — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Mar 1, 2013
4 30% The Berlin File (2013) " 'The Berlin File' takes Hollywood's penchant for spectacle and ADD visual neurosis to its logical albeit absurd conclusion." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Feb 15, 2013
7 92% No (2013) " The film highlights the sad fact that logical arguments don't win political debates or elections. Sloganeering and advertising do." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Feb 15, 2013
6 27% Saving Lincoln (2013) " The film suggests a way modestly budgeted movies can approach historical epochs and figures in a provocative and arresting manner." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Feb 15, 2013
5 45% Beautiful Creatures (2013) " For a while, in the early going, you sense the filmmakers may entertain greater ambitions, that they see sly possibilities." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Feb 15, 2013
3 20% Identity Thief (2013) " This is a movie for those who could care less about a bad premise or, for that matter, misfired gags, false sentimentality and obtuse characters." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Feb 9, 2013
5 47% Bullet to the Head (2013) " The filmmakers must see this as idea laundering - if a movie comes from a French graphic novel inspired by American movies, then it's not really stolen moronic movie junk. It's French!" — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Feb 5, 2013
6 92% Lore (2013) " Lore is a remarkable film that explores characters, often unlikable, in situations of unbearable stress." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Feb 5, 2013
8 37% Stand Up Guys (2013) " The movie is a star vehicle for Pacino, Walken & Arkin but this instance, it works terrifically." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Jan 30, 2013

Posted Jan 25, 2013
7 87% Tabu (2012) " The influences of Murnau's 1931 black-and-white Tabu are more thematic than stylistic in this uncategorizable new film" — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Jan 24, 2013
3 60% John Dies at the End (2013) " A 25-year-old can get away with a sloppy horror-comedy mix of crazed visual effects and cartoonish characters. An aging auteur cannot." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Jan 24, 2013
76% Hors Satan (2013) " Inarticulate characters, long blank stares, forced camera angles and allegorical nonsense make up this pretentious study in quasi-religious ennui." — Hollywood Reporter
Posted Jan 18, 2013
5 59% The Last Stand (2013) " The film is really a Howard Hawksian western where all that stands between a Mexican bandito and the border is a tough hombre sheriff." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Jan 17, 2013
4 30% Broken City (2013) " The movie's strategy is to smear all its characters with a taint of corruption; it turns New York into a city so broken that no character is without moral culpability." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Jan 17, 2013
4 32% Gangster Squad (2013) " The filmmakers take the most direct route to action thrills with cartoonish characters, outlandish violence and nary a moment of psychology or subtlety." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Jan 11, 2013
5 79% Quartet (2013) " Much talent and lovely performances are lavished on a creaky, disingenuous story ostensibly about old age" — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Jan 8, 2013
4 51% Promised Land (2013) " A dishonest film about duplicity." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Jan 7, 2013
4 18% Parental Guidance (2012) " Shouldn't Billy Crystal and Bette Midler demand sharper writing and direction?" — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Dec 24, 2012
8 70% Les Misérables (2012) " Once the film acknowledges the exaggeration and two-dimensionality of the story's gleefully villainous characters, 'Les Mis' starts to resemble a party with great music." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Dec 23, 2012
4 52% This is 40 (2012) " With a tighter control of his material, Judd Apatow might have made the wry, observant comedy he no doubt has in him." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Dec 22, 2012
4 38% The Guilt Trip (2012) " Seeing this movie is like watching two straight men performing an act: Neither one has any jokes." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Dec 21, 2012
6 61% Jack Reacher (2012) " As producer and star, Tom Cruise has made a film that is at once a vanity project, possible franchise and, if one is to be honest, a crowd pleaser." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Dec 19, 2012
7 81% The Impossible (2012) " While the final third of the film feels forced, its emotional power comes earlier - in the catastrophe of the tsunami, the immediate aftermath and random acts of heroism." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Dec 18, 2012
5 69% Not Fade Away (2012) " Like many a semi-autobiographical piece, characters and events don't fall into place with the rigor of those 10-Step Programs of Good Screenwriting." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Dec 18, 2012
6 88% Django Unchained (2012) " While inventive and clever, it doesn't add up to much more than a minor film from a major director." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Dec 13, 2012
3 44% Save The Date (2012) " 'Save the Date' traffics in the most banal situations and whiny characters imaginable." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Dec 12, 2012
8 77% Any Day Now (2012) " Alan Cumming's brilliant performance is eye-catching and provocative, imbued with such feeling that this turns a social-issue film into a must-see movie." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Dec 12, 2012
9 93% Amour (2012) " Haneke's challenge to audiences is to experience real love - it's tough and brutal and definitely not for the faint of heart." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Dec 10, 2012
6 38% Hyde Park on Hudson (2012) " A presidential mistress makes a good window into events of worldwide importance." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Dec 6, 2012
3 4% Playing for Keeps (2012) " How can you stick Gerard Butler, Jessica Biel, Uma Thurman, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Dennis Quaid and Judy Greer in a comedy and come up so empty?" — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Dec 6, 2012
9 93% Zero Dark Thirty (2013) " The film is a calm, concentrated, densely detailed description of a manhunt on a global scale - moviemaking at its engrossing best." — honeycuttshollywood.com
Posted Dec 5, 2012
6 35% Cheerful Weather For The Wedding (2012) " A welcome addition to the wedding comedy sub genre, light on its feet and brimming with vivid character portraits." — honeycuttshollywood.com
