    John Carter manages to be a ridiculous amount of fun, even if you are immune to the charms of Taylor Kitsch (Friday Night Lights) running around in what amounts to a stylish loincloth.
    • Metascore: 74
    • Connie Ogle 75
    Higher Ground is ultimately a proponent of the human spirit, of the individuality and honesty that must be claimed, even at a high price. That's a lot of substance to stuff into one little movie, but Farmiga makes it fit astonishingly well.

    Uproariously funny.
    • Metascore: 62
    • Connie Ogle 75
    It makes you laugh and eagerly wish for a happy ending without any preachy soul-searching. As a bonus, it's got a Van Morrison-friendly soundtrack, and the trailers haven't revealed the best parts.
    • Metascore: 50
    • Connie Ogle 75
    Still, though it's crude and juvenile in ways that makes you vaguely ashamed at laughing so much, The Campaign is versatile enough to sneak in a good shot or two at the American political system.

    It's all about making everybody happy. If that's not grounds for a good relationship, then I don't know what is.
    • Metascore: 50

    The humor is mostly gentle in nature; The Guilt Trip is clearly targeted at older audiences less than receptive to the crude jokes that made Rogen famous in movies like "Knocked Up" and "Zack and Miri Make a Porno."
    • Metascore: 34
    • Connie Ogle 75
    A sentimental romantic thriller. But it’s a well-made sentimental romantic thriller, and that makes all the difference.
    • Metascore: 43

    Even the people who griped about Tom Cruise being cast as the towering Jack Reacher will have to admit Statham fits nicely in Parker's shoes.
    • Metascore: 63
    • Connie Ogle 75
    Wright's film is visually stimulating to be sure, but he never loses sight of the raw human emotions that make Anna Karenina a classic.
    • Metascore: 72
    • Connie Ogle 75
    If you can look past all the flesh and the thongs and the thrusting - and I admit that is an almost impossible task and probably not one you'd want to undertake anyway - what's most distinctive about Steven Soderbergh's Magic Mike is its sense of fun.

    You don't have to love dogs to enjoy Darling Companion, but it couldn't hurt.
    • Metascore: 49
    • Connie Ogle 75
    This is a movie that manages to be light and funny and still transcend age, background and culture to treat with compassion our ability to behave in our own worst interests and still nurture hope for the future.
    • Metascore: 66
    • Connie Ogle 75
    Impossible not to like.
    • Metascore: 58
    • Connie Ogle 75
    Stoker is the sort of stylish, cerebral movie that engages your brain instead of your emotions, and yet you’re never less than intrigued by the breathtaking visual artistry of this slow-burn thriller.
    • Metascore: 52
    • Connie Ogle 75
    The film is also less bloated than "Bridesmaids" - a comedy is always more nimble at 90 minutes than two hours - and it's less maudlin, too. It's the aberrant, foul-mouthed child of "Superbad" and "Young Adult."
    • Metascore: 73
    • Connie Ogle 75
    It digs deep into the heart and soul of its lovers, who are idealistic, intelligent and passionate - and yet still risk everything they might gain for stolen moments together.
    • Metascore: 55
    • Connie Ogle 75
    The characters drive this story, not ideology. Damon and McDormand are terrific as co-workers seeking the same goal, though they see their work from different points of view.
    • Metascore: 64
    • Connie Ogle 75
    Quartet is truly an actor's film.
    • Metascore: 62
    • Connie Ogle 75
    These Fitzgeralds are loud, selfish and often maddening, but they're a loving group, and you wouldn't mind spending more time with them.
    • Metascore: 67
    • Connie Ogle 75
    This mostly upbeat crowd-pleaser soothes the audience with glistening harmonies and familiar songs and doesn’t always handle the ugly past simmering just below its surface gracefully.
    • Metascore: 64
    • Connie Ogle 75
    The film builds to a three-pronged tumultuous climax, shot in slow motion that could have been overwrought but somehow isn’t.
    • Metascore: 43
    • Connie Ogle 63
    There's an audience for old-fashioned romance, and Dear John will please most of it.
    • Metascore: 64
    • Connie Ogle 63
    A nice set of drapes and a striking ballgown or two are not enough to provide this interesting love story any serious heft or insight.
    • Metascore: 63

    For a low-brow, psycho-on-the-loose-in-paradise thriller, A Perfect Getaway is surprisingly entertaining.

    The film isn't particularly original, but its dark mood, end-of-times landscape and unique characters will seem fresher to the young audience for which it's aiming than to jaded sci-fi veterans.
    • Metascore: 37
    • Connie Ogle 63
    In an ironic twist, Mira Nair's big-hearted yet by-the-numbers biopic of Amelia Earhart never -- unlike the famous aviatrix -- takes chances.
    • Metascore: 69
    • Connie Ogle 63
    On the plus side, if you're flummoxed by the twisty plot or its occasional holes, you can always gaze contentedly at Clive Owen and be wholly entertained.
    • Metascore: 55

    The mere idea of making a musical version of Pride and Prejudice set in modern-day India is delicious, though, and Chadha's lively imagination and good intentions almost make the concept work.
    • Metascore: 58

    Gripping family drama keeps Swimming Upstream from going under.
