Rubber (2011) |
"
People talk about the line between laughing with or at a movie. You don't laugh with or at Rubber. It laughs at you."

Shanghai Calling (2013) |
"
Through it all, Henney is an appealing screen presence, but he's trapped in a movie that puts regurgitated sitcom shtick and regional economic boosterism ahead of character and humor."

It's nice to see women, particularly ones as talented as the aforementioned trio, take center stage in a comedy; it's frustrating, however, when all they get to do is complain about guys who are totally absent from the film."
