Storm Surfers (2012) 86% 8/10 EDIT “Storm Surfers 3D is a thrilling ride into the world of surfing. If you can find it playing at a theatre near you, I highly recommend checking it out, whether you're into the sport or not.” – We Got This Covered Jul 18, 2013 Full Review Epic (2013) 65% 5/10 EDIT “Epic is very pleasing on a visual level, but its story of good versus evil is no different than the ones we grew up reading about and watching.” – We Got This Covered May 23, 2013 Full Review Stories We Tell (2012) 94% 9/10 EDIT “Stories We Tell starts out as a simple investigation into the life of a mother that director Sarah Polley barely knew and slowly turns into a documentary that is as good as any movie you will see this year.” – We Got This Covered May 16, 2013 Full Review Generation Um... (2012) 0% 5/10 EDIT “Despite strong performances from Keanu Reeves, Bojana Novakovic and Adelaide Clemens, Generation Um... doesn't give us enough of a story to keep us fully invested throughout its running time.” – We Got This Covered Apr 22, 2013 Full Review What Maisie Knew (2012) 86% 9/10 EDIT “What Maisie Knew is a fascinating movie about what goes on inside the mind of a child when their parents divorce.” – We Got This Covered Apr 8, 2013 Full Review Upside Down (2012) 29% 5/10 EDIT “Upside Down dazzles us on a visual level but bores us with a Romeo & Juliet-like story of two lovers from opposing worlds.” – We Got This Covered Mar 13, 2013 Full Review 21 and Over (2013) 26% 2/10 EDIT “21 and Over desperately wants to be The Hangover and Superbad for a new generation of moviegoers, but it is nowhere as funny or as memorable as any of those movies.” – We Got This Covered Mar 1, 2013 Full Review Safe Haven (2013) 13% 3/10 EDIT “Safe Haven is nothing more than a rip-off of Sleeping With The Enemy, and it strands its strong cast in a story that is manipulative, convoluted and unintentionally hilarious.” – We Got This Covered Feb 14, 2013 Full Review Parker (2013) 42% 5/10 EDIT “Parker turns out to be a big letdown as it brings nothing new to the crime thriller genre, and it is not likely to stay with you long after the credits have finished.” – We Got This Covered Jan 25, 2013 Full Review Parental Guidance (2012) 18% 7/10 EDIT “Thanks to a wonderful cast and Crystal's good intentions, Parental Guidance is a much better movie than one might expect it to be.” – We Got This Covered Dec 20, 2012 Full Review The Guilt Trip (2012) 35% 5/10 EDIT “The Guilt Trip is something of a mixed bag. On one hand it has the combined talents of Seth Rogen and Barbara Streisand, who work terrifically off of one another, and on the other it's not that different from other road movies we have seen.” – We Got This Covered Dec 19, 2012 Full Review Universal Soldier: Day of Reckoning (2012) 57% 6.5/10 EDIT “Universal Soldier: Day of Reckoning comes off feeling like the Alien 3 of the franchise, as it becomes, at times, far too nihilistic to be enjoyed.” – We Got This Covered Nov 28, 2012 Full Review The Bay (2012) 76% 8/10 EDIT “The Bay doesn't break any new ground, but it shows Barry Levinson using the horror genre to his advantage.” – We Got This Covered Nov 2, 2012 Full Review The Man With the Iron Fists (2012) 52% 7.5/10 EDIT “RZA's directorial debut, The Man With The Iron Fists, shows a lot of love for the kung fu classics and martial arts movies which inspired it, but it doesn't quite have that feel of exhilaration that they have.” – We Got This Covered Nov 1, 2012 Full Review Alex Cross (2012) 11% 8.5/10 EDIT “Thanks to a game cast, taut action scenes and a surprising dose of raw emotion, Alex Cross finally gets the movie that he deserves.” – We Got This Covered Oct 17, 2012 Full Review
