Alpha and Omega is one of those rarities in the modern era of Hollywood animation: bad. -

Vaughn and James are likable enough, and they would have real chemistry in, say, an all-out comedy.- Posted Jan 13, 2011

What it became was bad. A movie that hopes to blend "Lethal Weapon" with "Gladiator" winds up not being a fraction of either.- Posted Feb 10, 2011

Speaking of that middle-finger finale, there is one redeeming trait: At least it signals the end credits.- Posted May 12, 2011

There isn't much in the way of plot to get in the way of Sandler's world: There's poo, ripped pants and hot girls falling for fat guys.- Posted Jul 7, 2011

Conan the Barbarian lives by a pretty simple ethos: He lives, he loves, he slays. What he doesn't do, alas, is act.- Posted Aug 18, 2011

There's nothing wrong in the setup: It worked fine in films like "Adventures in Babysitting" and "Uncle Buck." But director David Gordon Green populates the movie with so many soap opera asides it's hard to keep count.- Posted Dec 8, 2011

A putrid film that comes dead-weighted with hammy one-liners and a plot so silly it borders on comedy?- Posted Apr 12, 2012

Filmmakers must have been tripping pretty badly when they made High School, a flub that's about as lucid as a stoner at a spelling bee.- Posted May 31, 2012

Revolution tries a few plot moves, but, narratively, it has two left feet.- Posted Jul 26, 2012

RZA's directorial debut is heavy on bloody kung fu action...and light on just about everything else.- Posted Nov 1, 2012

The movie spends too much time wedging the couple into a May-December moment, where Crystal cracks nostalgic about the good old days. It's sweet, but it grows old.- Posted Dec 23, 2012

It's been a long time since a movie wasted as much talent as Stand Up Guys, a film that aims to be a geezer "Goodfellas" but whose execution is a misfire.- Posted Jan 31, 2013

What snookered Slater (not to mention Donald Sutherland) into this film is a wonder, because there's not a genuine bone in it. Think the Bourne franchise meets the Bond franchise, without the wit or action.- Posted Aug 5, 2012

The latest undead-soldier story carries on the franchise tradition of graphic violence and bad acting.- Posted Nov 29, 2012

Alas, shell casings, switchblades and severed limbs are all that's offered in this vile film, whose sole redeeming quality is that it ends. Eventually.- Posted Jan 31, 2013

A comedy that has one good joke, four strange cameos and a spirit so juvenile kids may wonder what Sandler's deal is.- Posted Nov 10, 2011
