In this creative new film, a novelist starts writing about the fictional girl of his dreams, only to find her wandering around his home.

What first appears to be a gimmick about living off Craiglist, turns out to be one of the most heartwarming and uplifting movies in ages.
The epic, unwieldy conclusion to the "Dark Knight" trilogy is everything that made its predecessors great but it can’t rise as high as the bar had been set.
A 13-year-old boy from Texas disappears, only to appear three years later in a phone booth in Spain. His story is strange. The truth is weirder.
Norwegian film noir hits the nail on the head with twists and turns that, despite being far-fetched, ring true.
An excruciating travelogue through a gorgeous country. Based on a book I’m sure is equally bad.
Despite a quick pace and a few flashes of brutal violence, Oliver Stone’s narcotics thriller feels sanitized, like a drug that’s been cut one too many times.
It’s a tribute to the enduring strength of the wall-crawling superhero that this redundant origin story is as good as it is. Well, that and Andrew Garfield’s excellent performance as the title.
Channing Tatum sheds a few layers as the titular character in this (mostly) entertaining dramedy from Steven Soderbergh.
This comedy of a boy and his talking bear – which plays like a long episode of "Family Guy" – is basically like watching Seth MacFarlane and Mark Wahlberg hanging out. Happily they’re both pretty funny.
