Sucker Punch Review
"300" director Zack Snyder may be an expert in fetishistic CGI cartoon violence, but "Sucker Punch" proves that style never trumps story.
"300" director Zack Snyder may be an expert in fetishistic CGI cartoon violence, but "Sucker Punch" proves that style never trumps story.
This comedic homage to 80s sci-fi films is anything but out of this world.
Frenetic thriller about a drug that unleashes your brain’s full potential doesn’t quite achieve its own, but star Bradley Cooper and director Neil Burger make the most of it.
This truly Grimm adaptation of the fairy tale is at best stylish and at worst ridiculous. Either way, it’s a waste of time.
Viewed as a parody, this subpar alien invasion flick is worth a few laughs. If only it were meant that way.
The latest in a long list of film adapatations of the perrenial love story is moody and well-cast, but let down by a terrible script.
Disney’s latest provides enough for the youngsters but leaves mommies and daddies on an arid planet, short of oxygen.
Topher Grace carries this formulaic coming-of-age comedy that’s far more precious with its ’80s premise than the story itself.
Admirably ambitious animated ode to Spaghetti Westerns featuring a Johnny Depp-voiced lizard as the unlikely hero.
Elements of sci-fi, action, romance and theology get all mashed up into a kind of cinematic oatmeal. It tastes fine, it’ll keep you going, but it doesn’t quite satisfy.
