Review of Bridge to Terabithia (2007)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 22 Nov 2013

This screen adaptation of Katherine Paterson's now-classic novel for young readers tells its story with agreeable simplicity in between computer-generated…

Review of Philomena (2013)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 21 Nov 2013

Mr. Coogan, lavishly talented as a comic, and a comic actor, is fairly monotonous in the mostly serious role he wrote for himself…

Review of The Hunger Games: Catching Fire (2013)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 21 Nov 2013

Catching Fire is exceptional entertainment, a spectacle with a good mind and a pounding heart…

Review of Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow (2004)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 20 Nov 2013

The movie is like one of those newfangled Vegas casinos, where what appears to be open sky is really painted ceiling…

Review of World Traveler (2002)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 19 Nov 2013

The gorgeous Crudup is talented, but this charming asshole (more asshole than charming) is old hat for him, little more than another of the…

Review of Watchmen (2009)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 19 Nov 2013

Elegance isn't Zack Snyder's bag; a certain sort of impact is. Watchmen establishes him as Hollywood's reigning master of psychic suffocation…

Review of The White Ribbon (2009)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 15 Nov 2013

A severe and eerily beautiful German-language drama…

Review of At Berkeley (2013)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 14 Nov 2013

At Berkeley is more than the sum of its minutes…

Review of Nebraska (2013)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 14 Nov 2013

What's extraordinary is what happens at the intersection of Mr. Payne's impeccable direction and Mr. Nelson's brilliant script…

Review of The Motel Life (2013)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 07 Nov 2013

It's admirable and even memorable, in its moody fashion, thanks to Roman Vasyanov's richly textured cinematography — he's a shooter to keep…

Review of How I Live Now (2013)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 07 Nov 2013

The production feels tentative and underpopulated: I thought not only of Katniss Everdeen but of the marvelous pandemonium in Danny Boyle's…

Review of Thor: The Dark World (2013)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 07 Nov 2013

The larger problem, transcending all realms, is that this action-adventure sequel from Marvel soon turns so dumb and 3-D-murky that it hurts…

Review of The Armstrong Lie (2013)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 07 Nov 2013

The Armstrong Lie wears thin before it's over; the wafer-thin nature of the cyclist's personality can't sustain a two-hour running time…

Review of Eragon (2006)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 02 Nov 2013

There is little complexity in the social, cultural or political shape of this world…

Review of Frida (2002)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 31 Oct 2013

Though occasionally enlivened by fanciful sequences suggesting the surreal power of Kahlo's vivid inner life, it's often mired in the mechanical…

Review of Dallas Buyers Club (2013)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 31 Oct 2013

This classic tale of a little guy taking on giants benefits from being essentially true, and from accomplished filmmaking, but most of all…

Review of The Square (2013)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 31 Oct 2013

The Square stands as a valuable document of a tormented time, an anatomy of a revolutionary movement doomed by a paucity of viable institutions,…

Review of Ender's Game (2013)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 31 Oct 2013

Not only does Ender's Game have many scenes in zero gravity, but this zero-sum fiasco has zero drama, zero suspense, zero humor, zero charm…

Review of The Counselor (2013)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 23 Oct 2013

What's missing is dramatic subtext and surprise, as well as any playfulness that might have kept us guessing about the plot…
