It: Chapter Two (2019)
62%
EDIT
“It's obvious that the filmmakers failed to fully reckon with what they've put on the screen, and the results are grim.” –

Rocketman (2019)

EDIT
“Rocketman never quite finds the wild momentum its characters seem to chase around in all those musical numbers.” –

The Predator (2018)
34%
EDIT
“On the matter of action, Black knows the trade, and it shows: This is by far the best-looking and most pyrotechnic movie in the franchise, with an impressive array of vehicles and hacked-off limbs soaring lovingly through the frame.” –

Lean on Pete (2017)
90%
EDIT
“This is not a movie about a boy and his horse. It is something far more grueling and merciless, and as the film reveals itself in an increasingly jaw-dropping series of vignettes, it's likely to leave you in tatters.” –

Fifty Shades Freed (2018)
11%
EDIT
“These movies are derivative, often ridiculous, and, in the case of Fifty Shades Freed, unquestionably hilarious, but they're also the overheated comfort food I crave.” –

BPM (Beats Per Minute) (2017)
99%
EDIT
“Campillo has taken his own experience as an ACT UP organizer and turned it into the best kind of cinematic memoir, a cathartic invocation of a lost moment.” –

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales (2017)
30%
EDIT
“I found Dead Men Tell No Tales to be passably fun and certainly no harder to watch than any of the better-pedigreed blockbusters this year.” –

Colossal (2016)
82%
EDIT
“Though the film never quite abandons its absurdist comedy and its boyish glee for romping monsters, Colossal also becomes a brutal psychological horror movie, more unforgiving and savage by the minute.” –

Raw (2016)
93%
EDIT
“Raw is the French cannibal sex movie to end all French cannibal sex movies, a truly fearless descent into total degradation. I recommend it highly.” –

Split (2017)
79%
EDIT
“Shyamalan has made the straightest thriller of his career, nearly free of the misguided detours and bonkers twists that made him famous. You wish it were messier.” –

Blair Witch (2016)
38%
EDIT
“Barrett and Wingard slavishly reprise the beats of the original movie and suffer gravely by comparison.” –

Swiss Army Man (2016)
73%
EDIT
“Swiss Army Man opens as a desert-island fantasy and morphs into a disturbingly intimate buddy movie-hilarious, deranged, and always alive with possibility.” –

Green Room (2015)
90%
EDIT
“Green Room proves to be an exquisitely crafted love letter to John Carpenter, and the rare horror ensemble that gives as much care to the villains as to the victims.” –

127 Hours (2010)
93%
B+
EDIT
“The camera soars through canyons and beyond, and the picture is often split into two screens or more, probably because [Boyle] simply couldn't contain himself.” –

I Love You Phillip Morris (2009)

EDIT
“The beguiling warmth Carrey and McGregor generate becomes muddled with the carefree irreverence of Steven's crimes.” –

Bug (2006)

EDIT
“Bug has a simpler, more primal, and basically as honorable intention: It wants to drive us out of our heads.” –

“Fuqua indulges the rather unfortunate belief that movies with multiple characters need to Come Together and Mean Something.” –

The Time Traveler's Wife (2009)

68/100
EDIT
“A fastidiously old-fashioned love story with sloppy, soppy existential ideas and more than enough droll narrative tricks to see it through to the end.” –

30/100
EDIT
“The movie is finally just too frivolous to elicit any real reaction, bemusement, anger, whatever. It's almost quaint.” –
