Rating T-Meter Title | Year Add Date
8/10 77% Iron Man 3 (2013) " Though Iron Man 3 is a better constructed film than its predecessor, ultimately it succeeds for the same reason the first two films did -- Robert Downey Jr. is Tony Stark." — Paste Magazine
Posted May 3, 2013
7.7/10 56% Oblivion (2013) " Even if Oblivion comes up short of being the insta-classic sci-fi masterpiece it so clearly aspires to be, it doesn't miss by much. It may not "wow" a generation -- but it will certainly entertain many of them." — Paste Magazine

7.2/10 62% Evil Dead (2013) " For those unfamiliar with the original films, this latest Evil Dead serves well enough as a neatly packaged, delightfully repulsive gore fest." — Paste Magazine
Posted Apr 5, 2013
7.5/10 60% Oz the Great and Powerful (2013) " Much in the same manner that Raimi's first two Spider-Man movies successfully channeled the vigor and élan of the original comics even while presenting them for modern tastes to devour, his Oz is replete with the spirit and vision of the original film." — Paste Magazine

8.7/10 93% Looper (2012) " [Looper] may be the best sci-fi thriller to hit the theaters since 1995's Twelve Monkeys." — Paste Magazine
Posted Jan 4, 2013
7.9/10 66% The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey (2012) " Much as with LotR, the casting is a strength." — Paste Magazine
Posted Dec 19, 2012
8.4/10 92% Silver Linings Playbook (2012) " With leads as winning as Cooper and Lawrence, and Russell's signature mix of clever and sincere dialogue, the hook is set." — Paste Magazine
Posted Nov 21, 2012
7.1/10 31% Total Recall (2012) " While Wiseman's latest sports its fair share of implausibilities in science, plotting and characterization, this update isn't meant so much to be taken seriously as it is to be taken in and enjoyed. In that sense, Total Recall is memorable enough." — Paste Magazine
Posted Aug 10, 2012
8.2/10 87% The Dark Knight Rises (2012) " The Dark Knight Rises joins the long list of finales that don't measure up to what's gone immediately before. But that doesn't mean it'll be any easier of an act to follow." — Paste Magazine
Posted Jul 20, 2012
8/10 78% Brave (2012) " Above all else, Brave is a film about mothers and daughters, and this is one of its strengths." — Paste Magazine
Posted Jun 29, 2012
9.2/10 93% Marvel's The Avengers (2012) " While Whedon smartly recognizes how key Downey Jr.'s Stark is to the story, he also allows most all of his cast, heroes and villain, ample opportunities to shine, both in dialogue and action." — Paste Magazine
