Da 5 Bloods (2020) 92% A- EDIT “Lee's latest is a crackerjack drama, directed by a filmmaker who remains in total control of his once-in-a-generation gifts and utilizes them to synthesize story and history into something new.” – Entertainment Weekly Jun 13, 2020 Full Review John Lewis: Good Trouble (2020) 94% B EDIT “John Lewis: Good Trouble is absolutely inspiring - but it stops a bit short of being illuminating.” – Entertainment Weekly Jun 13, 2020 Full Review Miss Juneteenth (2020) 99% B- EDIT “Beharie remains a powerful performer, able to convey multitudes with subtlety, even if Miss Juneteenth never makes a move you didn't see coming a mile down that country road.” – Entertainment Weekly Jun 13, 2020 Full Review Tekken: The Motion Picture (1998) C EDIT “What was once an evocative, battle-hardened haiku has become a punch-drunk, derivative Saturday-morning cartoon.” – Entertainment Weekly Apr 9, 2019 Full Review Hercules & Xena -- The Battle for Mount Olympus (1998) D EDIT “Even its greatest strength -- the assured voice work of Kevin Sorbo and Lucy Lawless, reprising their TV roles -- only reminds us of what's unforgivable about Olympus: It's not nearly as vivid a cartoon as the live-action series.” – Entertainment Weekly Oct 2, 2018 Full Review Black Panther (2018) 96% 3.5/5 EDIT “As a nerd and as a black man, I've been waiting for this movie for my entire life, whether I knew it or not. The fact that Black Panther gets so much right, but one crucial thing wrong, is both thrilling and maddening.” – Nerdist Feb 6, 2018 Full Review Need for Speed (2014) 23% EDIT “You wouldn't think a movie called Need For Speed would feel so slow.” – The Hollywood Reporter Mar 14, 2014 Full Review The Sound Of Music Live! (2013) 44% EDIT “Without Underwood and Moyer selling us on this legendary love story, The Sound of Music Live plays like very expensive karaoke.” – The Hollywood Reporter Dec 12, 2013 Full Review An Adventure in Space and Time (2013) 96% EDIT “There's a breezy propulsion to An Adventure in Space and Time - written by Sherlock's Mark Gatiss, a member of the Steven Moffat mafia - as it charts the evolution of Doctor Who and the invention of so many things beloved by Whovians the world over.” – The Hollywood Reporter Nov 22, 2013 Full Review Ender's Game (2013) 63% EDIT “The adaptation is a shallow sci-fi spectacle that almost makes you care.” – The Hollywood Reporter Oct 31, 2013 Full Review Mr. Woodcock (2007) 14% C+ EDIT “In this post-Apatow-the-arrested-development-genius world, it can't compete. The only thing worth watching is Sarandon, popping in from a classier reality.” – Entertainment Weekly Sep 13, 2007 Full Review War (2007) 14% B- EDIT “Just as you think to yourself, ''This flick would be way better if it had Van Damme playing twins,'' along comes a plot twist so ingenious that it almost redeems the rest of the flick.” – Entertainment Weekly Aug 29, 2007 Full Review Illegal Tender (2007) 15% C+ EDIT “For a second, the movie has the snap of a truly surprising thriller... But then we go back to following the kid, who manages to both mope and strut along the path to manhood.” – Entertainment Weekly Aug 22, 2007 Full Review The Condemned (2007) 16% B- EDIT “Cheesy enough to satisfy your B-movie cravings in half Grindhouse's running time.” – Entertainment Weekly May 3, 2007 Full Review The Protector (2005) 53% B- EDIT “It's silly, at times laughable, sure, but Jaa has a reckless, bone-cracking grace that transcends the film's triviality. For fight fans, he's worth the price of admission.” – Entertainment Weekly Sep 23, 2006 Full Review District B13 (2004) 81% B EDIT “The big innovation here is that the two nimble leads, stuntmen-turned-stars, are devotees of parkour, a fancy French word for the fluid use of urban environments as jungle gyms.” – Entertainment Weekly May 31, 2006 Full Review Doom (2005) 18% C+ EDIT “It's pretty clear by now that characters in sci-fi movies have never seen a sci-fi movie.” – Entertainment Weekly Oct 19, 2005 Full Review
