Troy (2004)
Wicker Park (2004)
An interesting formal exercise: exceedingly hard to swallow, but quietly engrossing...deserves style points for sticking to an unconventional narrative.
The Dead Girl (2006)
There's an underlying, unifying power and credibility to Moncrieff's cumulative assertion that degradation is expected of too many women, and too often expected by themselves.
Adam (2009)
An admirable dramatic investigation into life with Asperger's and a story with the intelligence not to insult ours.
Get Him to the Greek (2010)
Reaches its apex with a manic party scene that unleashes the full intimidation of P. Diddy and guarantees the phrase “stroke the furry wall” a place in the comedy lexicon...
X-Men: First Class (2011)
A superb, stylish piece of modern mythology.
The Internship (2013)
Although Vaughn's riffing skills remain in fine form, as do Wilson's, the story makes every obvious and conventional choice.
Neighbors (2014)
All about the riff...it's not easy having less story than a Will Ferrell movie, but
Neighbors
is undaunted.
X-Men: Apocalypse (2016)
For all its failings, including the crime of not being exhilarating,
X-Men: Apocalypse
remains a competent sci-fi actioner.
The Meddler (2015)
A delightfully humane comedy...doesn’t insist upon the meddling as a 'premise' but as an important part of the film’s psychological reality.
Peter Rabbit (2018)
This Peter is...the Ferris Bueller of rabbits. As such, many will love him, and many will find his zany wisecracks, blatant selfishness, and borderline amorality repulsive.
Instant Family (2018)
Humor is subjective, of course, but the film offers this litmus test: do you laugh when a sane adult finally slaps Ellie ('You listen to me, you crazy woman!') and when another slaps cuffs on Pete? Or do you cheer?
