Jay Baruchel
Nicolas Cage & Jay Baruchel & Jon Turteltaub—
The Sorcerer's Apprentice
,
Kick-Ass
—4/3/10
[Cage:] I like to take bad sounds and just see if I can make them sound good...And I make it extra-hard on myself. But otherwise it's not interesting for me. You know, so I'm always tryin' to mess it up a little bit, or subvert it.
Jay Baruchel, America Ferrera, Dean DeBlois, & Bonnie Arnold—
How to Train Your Dragon 2
—6/2/2014
[Jay Baruchel:] Dean always allows us time to 'find daylight,' to sort of try to make it our own and kinda do what I call 'handmade acting,' right? Make it a bit clumsy, rough around the edges, homemade.
Million Dollar Baby (2004)
Million Dollar Baby
makes the line between subtle and obvious seem finer than it is, and delivers its one-two punches Old-Hollywood-style.
Tropic Thunder (2008)
Lazarus' cliched idea of a black man is funny in itself...but Downey's immersive take on the immersive actor is pure genius.
Fanboys (2009)
If you want to hear characters talk to each other in
Star Wars
dialogue, I've got a couple of trilogies for you.
How to Train Your Dragon (2010)
The 3D is justified, mostly by flying sequences that are certain to fuel the dreams of many a child.
She's Out of My League (2010)
Tends to be off-putting, which is a shame, because it's on to something about the dynamic between put-together women and the legions of nervous men who shoot themselves in the feet while longing for them.
The Sorcerer's Apprentice (2010)
This PG-rated Jerry Bruckheimer production is slick as an oiled weasel: larded with fancy special effects, canned romance, corny humor and a general lack of sophistication.
This Is the End (2013)
This type of thing has already been diluted by...Funny or Die...The main difference...is that
This is The End
is profane in the extreme, an R-rated stoner comedy gleefully grafted onto a 'splatstick' horror picture...
RoboCop (2014)
[Has] a soupçon of military-industrial complexity...Judged on its own merits, this
RoboCop
pump-fakes in some interesting directions without getting to fully explore any of them.
How to Train Your Dragon 2 (2014)
While delivering the epic goods, the
How to Train Your Dragon
franchise continues to keep its eye on helping kids become better people, and that's a cause worth fighting for.
How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World (2019)
The little franchise that could is all grown up and ready to leave the nest, so wipe that tear away, and say your goodbyes, kids...For now...
