User Score 4

Alright, I believe this movie succeeded in the box office primarily due to Natalie Portman, but there could still be a couple Ashton Kutcher fans out there so I wonâ€™t hold it against you if youâ€™re one of them. I really wanted to see how Portman would make the transition from the insane Black Swan to a casual sex bimbo with feelings. It was a bad transition.… Expand

Justin Bieber: Never Say Never

Average User Score: 1.6

User Score 7

Bieber sings his way into Madison Garden, and Never Say Never takes you through his journey to playing on the sacred grounds. Throughout the film you watch his documentary bits, which are meticulously mixed with the Madison Garden performance. Whatâ€™s MOST impressive here is that he actually sings these songs live at Madison during filming. Itâ€™s easy to say that he should sing all live performances live, but itâ€™s easier said than done, and there are no cuts during a live show.… Expand

Friday

Average User Score: 7.5

User Score 5

Friday is ghetto, stereotypical and kinda funny. Even though it is extremely mediocre, Ice Cube gives one the best performances in his career here. Fans of the Cube will love this film, just for his dead-pan humor. Others will probably hate it for Chris Tucker's annoying tendencies.… Expand

127 Hours

Average User Score: 7.8

User Score 8

127 Hours is brutal, relentless and heartbreaking. It's incredibly sad that it takes a life altering accident to wake us up from despotic darkness. The turmoil that ensues is absolutely remarkable, and the way the story unfolds is brilliantly produced.… Expand

Devil

Average User Score: 6.3

User Score 5

Devil will infringe on your beliefs and send you to a two hour hell, literally. It's not a great movie, but it's somewhat intense, even if you have to suffer through the awful acting as the story unfolds.… Expand

Tangled

Average User Score: 8.2

User Score 8

Tangled is an engaging, appealing movie that exudes vibrancy and impressive character. It's a fun movie, but teaches a valuable lesson to the young ones. Live your life, and fight even if you are devoured by others.… Expand

Easy A

Average User Score: 7.3

User Score 6

Easy A makes me wonder if HESTER PRYNNE had sexual intercourse with another man. Maybe it was a big sham, the baby coming from another woman who couldn't handle the problematics of raising a child. Easy A is over the top and insane, but at least it confirms to the masses that people lie about having sex. Emma is definitely the shiny Stone here, with the other performances being clumsy and boring, designed to make her look radiant in comparison.… Expand

Black Swan

Average User Score: 7.9

User Score 10

Black Swan is not a psychological thriller that's privy to holding hands with its audience. In fact, you're expected to comprehend its entirety on your own. If you have problems understanding obsessive compulsive disorders and elaborate hallucinations mixed with other psychotic tendencies, Black Swan will confuse you. But in the midst of the confusion is the pure value of the film -- this stuff is WORTH studying. Natalie Portman's quest to perform her greatest role isn't a high school drama escapade, it's a disturbing reality that traumatizes and destroys the life of real people. Black Swan is one of the best productions in recent memory, and it's a must watch for anyone curious.… Expand

Shrek Forever After

Average User Score: 6.4

User Score 8

After watching Shrek the Third, I felt like Shrek may have lost his enchanting touch that was ever-so apparent in the first two flicks. Thankfully, Shrek Forever After brings us back to the old magical roots of fascination and wonder. This film not only teaches us an important lesson, but will also make you ponder how grateful you are as an individual.… Expand

The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader

Average User Score: 6.1

User Score 5

The books give you some very engaging and enthralling experiences -- especially The Voyage of the Dawn Treader; however, the way it unfolds on the big screen is the direct opposite. The action, while solid is mundane, while the story collapses mid-way through. I became so uninterested in the film I dozed off on several occasions, wishing it was over. But even with its flaws and frivolous attempts at imitating the Bible, the movie does have some heart buried in its insipid situations.… Expand
