Darling Companion (2012) |
Absolutely no blame for this snooze-fest can be laid at the feet of the stars, who do the best they can with the rough material they have been given. - Buffalo News

Assault on Precinct 13 (2005) |
If you are going to remake a cult film classic, it darn well ought to be better than the original. Jean-Francois Richet apparently ignored this tidbit of Filmmaking 101 wisdom when he was putting together Assault on Precinct 13. - Buffalo News

A Hologram for the King (2016) |
Black and Choudhury give fine performances, too, though they lack the dimension of their co-star. But it is Hanks, whose portrayal of Alan is suffused with sublime humor, sadness and compassion, who will earn this spare movie its praise. - Buffalo News
