Patriots Day (2016) 80% EDIT “A film content with the charming, if chuckleheaded, cartoon of the Boston local that Wahlberg has regularly inhabited throughout his career.” – Slate Jan 13, 2017 Full Review Straight Outta Compton (2015) 89% EDIT “While no one will mistake this for a protest film-there are too many pool parties-the movie's portrait of a militarized police force all too eager to assault young black men can't help but resonate in our own moment.” – Slate Aug 14, 2015 Full Review Source Code (2011) 92% EDIT “It's this emotional arc underlying the ticking-time-bomb plot that keeps the movie from succumbing to its flaws.” – Slate Mar 23, 2014 Full Review Crooked Arrows (2012) 42% EDIT “The plucky underdog Native American lacrosse movie I never knew I wanted.” – Slate May 18, 2012 Full Review The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader (2010) 50% EDIT “Its attempts to overcome the story's episodic nature are clumsy, its effects only intermittently special, and its dufflepuds not nearly funny enough.” – Slate Dec 9, 2010 Full Review The Taking of Pelham 123 (2009) 51% EDIT “It's easy to imagine why Pelham's producers wouldn't want Scott's professional but dull picture to be compared with the 1974 classic.” – Slate Jun 11, 2009 Full Review
