Chappie (2015) |
It's this time-old message of humanity, adapted to fit with today's technologies, that transcends the overpowering, at times clunky, cinematic vessel. - The Atlantic

Inherent Vice (2014) |
If the adaptation's a little too faithful to sustain a cinematically tight story, there's still a lot to admire in the sheer, uninhibited folly of the whole thing, the gall to get groovy while the Oscar-watchers are on high alert. - The Atlantic

While the rote screenwriting doesn't kill the dark spirit of the world's creepiest board game, it doesn't channel it, either. - The Atlantic

Guardians of the Galaxy (2014) |
If Guardians of the Galaxy is an origin story, it is also a satire of the origin story, one that emphasizes the power of the "We" over that of the "Chosen One." - The Atlantic

The Theory of Everything (2014) |
If the film unfolds like a fairytale, at least it's a fairytale that doesn't often get told. - The Atlantic
