The Hangover Part III (2013)

"Exists for the producers, the studio, and nobody else. Insulting, amateurish garbage."

Scott Weinberg

Star Trek Into Darkness (2013)

""Star Trek Into Darkness" kind of slumps back into the franchise's own canon, which is why it feels a bit less fun, fresh and funky than its predecessor; It's still a good time."

James Rocchi

Iron Man 3 (2013)

"Iron Man 3 isn't a Blockbuster, it's a Blandbuster -- boring and safe and riddled with plot holes and filled with product placement. "

James Rocchi

Pain & Gain (2013)

""Pain and Gain" is Bay's best film, but we're judging on a curve that includes a talking big rig lecturing audiences about human rights and two Miami cops invading Cuba, so that's ultimately not saying much."

James Rocchi

Oblivion (2013)

"Some things borrowed, some things Cruise, some things old and nothing new; 'Oblivion' is pretty as a picture, but dumb and pointless as a bag of hammers made of meth."

James Rocchi

Gangster Squad (2013)

"Guns n' Poses in a cover-band version of 'The Untouchables,' a wax museum with a pulse. "

Django Unchained (2012)

"It's always so much fun to see something familiar turned into something fresh right before your eyes. Few can do it like Tarantino."

Scott Weinberg

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey (2012)

"Precisely what an adventure epic should be: huge, long, and lots of fun."

Scott Weinberg

92%

Skyfall (2012)

"An espionage thriller mixed with a revenge story wrapped in a character study about the world's favorite secret agent."

Scott Weinberg

The Man With the Iron Fists (2012)

"It's Russell Crowe's unhinged performance that's the crown jewel of weirdness in this joyously bizarre little action movie."

Scott Weinberg

86%

Wreck-it Ralph (2012)

"One of the best animated movies of a year full of them. Sweet, silly, nostalgic, and very geeky fun."

Scott Weinberg

13%

Red Dawn (2012)

"Equally as stupid as the original, but it runs about 30 minutes shorter, which is nice."

Scott Weinberg

93%

Looper (2012)

""Works on so many levels" is sort of an inside joke among film critics. No joke here; Looper really does."

Scott Weinberg

65%

The Expendables 2 (2012)

"The Expendables 2 has roundhouse kicks, cheesy one-liners, Chuck Norris jokes and Schwarzenegger/Stallone/Willis action scenes! It's the perfect flick to help you let off some steam!"

Kevin McCarthy

56%

The Bourne Legacy (2012)

"The Bourne Legacy needs Matt Damon, better action and an ending. The best part about this flick is James Newton Howards incredible score!"

Kevin McCarthy

31%

Total Recall (2012)

"Not as smart as the previous Total Recall, but slicker, sexier, and a lot more energetic."

Scott Weinberg

87%

The Dark Knight Rises (2012)

"One of the best marriages we've ever seen between the art of superhero storytelling and the "evil" of large-scale commerce."
