Love, Simon (2018) 92% 3.5/4 EDIT “This film treats 17-year-old Simon Spier's quest for love and self-acceptance with the tender, timeless, Hollywood touch of John Hughes: It's a classic story of a first crush made groundbreaking by centering on a closeted gay kid.” – Associated Press Mar 13, 2018 Full Review Peter Rabbit (2018) 64% 2.5/4 EDIT “There's enough entertainment for parents here, and plenty of good-natured humor for kids.” – Associated Press Feb 8, 2018 Full Review Pitch Perfect 3 (2017) 29% 2/4 EDIT “It hasn't jumped the shark, exactly, but it does send its singing Bellas jumping off an exploding yacht. Because that's what a cappella competitions are about!” – Associated Press Dec 20, 2017 Full Review Mudbound (2017) 97% 4/4 EDIT “Mudbound is beautiful, complex and flawless, regardless of who made it. That it happens to come from a queer black woman is both significant and irrelevant: Brilliance is brilliance, no matter its packaging.” – Associated Press Nov 15, 2017 Full Review American Assassin (2017) 34% EDIT “As often happens with these international thrillers, plot holes are compensated for with action and spectacular settings.” – Associated Press Sep 13, 2017 Full Review Ingrid Goes West (2017) 84% EDIT “Ingrid Goes West has fun with some social media tropes and Southern California tendencies, but it feels less like a satire than a cautionary tale, for both the envious and the envied.” – Associated Press Aug 8, 2017 Full Review Girls Trip (2017) 91% EDIT “I can't wait to see this film again (and again), and to watch Haddish in whatever she does next.” – Associated Press Jul 19, 2017 Full Review To the Bone (2017) 69% EDIT “Without judging or romanticizing, Noxon presents a heartfelt and heartbreaking portrait of a 20-year-old girl trying to cope with the challenges of growing up by obsessively restricting calories.” – Associated Press Jul 13, 2017 Full Review The Beguiled (2017) 79% EDIT “The performances are engrossing, particularly Kidman's: She disappears into the distant primness of Ms. Farnsworth. The costumes are exquisite and the Southern setting atmospheric and beautiful.” – Associated Press Jun 20, 2017 Full Review Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie (2017) 87% EDIT “Creative parents' hearts are sure to be warmed when the school arts program is reinstated, and anyone who's ever been a kid can appreciate the fourth graders' mission to "make school fun again."” – Associated Press Jun 1, 2017 Full Review Sleight (2016) 83% EDIT “Sleight succeeds with its creation of a modern quasi-superhero in Bo and the launching of an electric new leading man in Latimore.” – Associated Press Apr 27, 2017 Full Review The Fate of the Furious (2017) 67% EDIT “The action satisfies, even if the lines veer past campy into full-on cheese territory and the story is hazier than the smoke from a broken tailpipe.” – Associated Press Apr 12, 2017 Full Review CHIPS (2017) 20% EDIT “Reimagined by writer, director, producer and star Dax Shepard, the big-screen CHIPS is a tawdry, testosterone-fueled tale built around penis jokes and endless evaluation of women's appearances.” – Associated Press Mar 23, 2017 Full Review T2 Trainspotting (2017) 81% EDIT “Rather than romanticizing their drug-fueled youth, T2 is about accepting that reality and finding value in it.” – Associated Press Mar 15, 2017 Full Review Logan (2017) 93% EDIT “Logan is a family drama, an action thriller and an epic superhero story. If this is indeed Jackman's last Wolverine film, he's going out in heartfelt, high-class style.” – Associated Press Mar 2, 2017 Full Review Fist Fight (2017) 25% EDIT “Sometimes silly comedies actually have something to say. Fist Fight is not one of them.” – Associated Press Feb 16, 2017 Full Review The Comedian (2016) 24% 3/5 EDIT “Interesting character study and heartfelt love letter to New York City and the camaraderie among its comedians.” – Associated Press Feb 2, 2017 Full Review Mother's Day (2016) 8% EDIT “Even if stars Jennifer Aniston, Julia Roberts and Kate Hudson are mom's all-time favorites, don't subject her to this cloying, plotless dose of saccharine unless she's done you wrong.” – Associated Press Dec 30, 2016 Full Review A Monster Calls (2016) 86% EDIT “If you're not crying by the third act of A Monster Calls, you may want to have your humanity checked.” – Associated Press Dec 22, 2016 Full Review Collateral Beauty (2016) 14% EDIT “With its cast of Oscar-caliber actors and pervasive theme of loss, Collateral Beauty should have been a deeply moving tear-jerker. Instead, it comes off as a melodramatic contrivance.” – Associated Press Dec 14, 2016 Full Review Man Down (2015) 17% EDIT “Man Down carries a poignant message about American veterans' mental health needs, but you may give up on the movie before it gets there.” – Associated Press Dec 2, 2016 Full Review Doctor Strange (2016) 89% EDIT “No affinity for superheroes or familiarity with Marvel mythology is required to enjoy the visual spectacle that is Doctor Strange. Being open to mysticism and the possibility of parallel dimensions might help, though.” – Associated Press Nov 2, 2016 Full Review Queen of Katwe (2016) 94% EDIT “The colors and rhythms of life in the slums of Uganda are what set Queen of Katwe apart from other underdog chess movies.” – Associated Press Oct 24, 2016 Full Review Jack Reacher: Never Go Back (2016) 37% EDIT “With Smulders and Yarosh on camera almost as much as Cruise, Never Go Back doubles the number of key women from the 2012 film. If only the story was as good.” – Associated Press Oct 21, 2016 Full Review Morgan (2016) 38% EDIT “The predictable twist hampers the story's suspense, and the film doesn't dip beyond the superficial.” – Associated Press Sep 2, 2016 Full Review
