Review of The Spectacular Now (2013)

By Ken Hanke (2,234) for Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) (2,247) on 26 Aug 2013

Maybe I'm missing something, but I found The Spectacular Now a good bit shy of spectacular…

Review of Closed Circuit (2013)

By Ken Hanke (2,234) for Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) (2,247) on 26 Aug 2013

Intelligent, compelling drama of a kind we don't get very often…

Review of The Smurfs 2 (2013)

By Ken Hanke (2,234) for Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) (2,247) on 13 Aug 2013

I took my inner-5-year-old to see The Smurfs 2 and what happened? The little weasel sneaked out of the theater and went to watch something else…

Review of Elysium (2013)

By Ken Hanke (2,234) for Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) (2,247) on 13 Aug 2013

While I find more problems with Neill Blomkamp's Elysium as time passes, I still come down pretty strongly for the film…

Review of The Conjuring (2013)

By Ken Hanke (2,234) for Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) (2,247) on 13 Aug 2013

As a solid spook show, The Conjuring works, though the ending doesn't strike me as big enough for the story leading up to it…

Review of The Kings of Summer (2013)

By Ken Hanke (2,234) for Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) (2,247) on 13 Aug 2013

The first two-thirds of the movie felt rather special, while the last third less so…

Review of Gold Diggers of 1935 (1935)

By Ken Hanke (2,234) for Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) (2,247) on 13 Aug 2013

If Gold Diggers of 1935 wasn't quite up to its predecessor, it's probably the fault of the newly enforced Production Code…

Review of We're the Millers (2013)

By Ken Hanke (2,234) for Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) (2,247) on 13 Aug 2013

Pretends to be edgy and hip, but in reality is so conventional it makes an old Osmond Family Christmas special look subversive…

Review of Lovelace (2013)

By Ken Hanke (2,234) for Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) (2,247) on 13 Aug 2013

Lovelace isn't a bad movie. In fact, it's a pretty good one, but it definitely feels constrained and compromised…

Review of The Wolverine (2013)

By Ken Hanke (2,234) for Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) (2,247) on 13 Aug 2013

The Wolverine can proudly take its place with most of the rest of its comic book brethren this summer - high atop the mountain of the Massively OK…

Review of The Way Way Back (2013)

By Ken Hanke (2,234) for Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) (2,247) on 13 Aug 2013

Provides a much-needed respite from overbearingly big summer movies. Think of it as a soothing breeze in the midst of a lot of blustering gales…

Review of Murder, He Says (1945)

By Ken Hanke (2,234) for Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) (2,247) on 13 Aug 2013

One of those movies that never becomes one of the 'great' comedies, but it's sufficiently entertaining and funny that it ought to be better known…

Review of Fill the Void (2012)

By Ken Hanke (2,234) for Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) (2,247) on 15 Jul 2013

It's the movie's attention to detail that sells it, especially because the humanity of all the characters shines through…

Review of Call Me Madam (1953)

By Ken Hanke (2,234) for Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) (2,247) on 15 Jul 2013

Isn't a whole lot more than a solid film version of Irving Berlin's Ethel Merman stage show. But it doesn't really need to be…

Review of Only God Forgives (2013)

By Ken Hanke (2,234) for Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) (2,247) on 15 Jul 2013

I won't say that I liked it -- that's not a word I'd care to use here -- but I was mesmerized by it. And I remain haunted by its otherworldliness…

Review of Pacific Rim (2013)

By Ken Hanke (2,234) for Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) (2,247) on 15 Jul 2013

What makes Pacific Rim work -- and work far better than it probably has any right to -- is the way del Toro embraces the movie's deliberately…

Review of The Lone Ranger (1956)

By Ken Hanke (2,234) for Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) (2,247) on 08 Jul 2013

A film that is at once divinely silly, surprisingly deep and deceptively complex…

Review of Despicable Me 2 (2013)

By Ken Hanke (2,234) for Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) (2,247) on 08 Jul 2013

It's not that the movie is unlikable. It's that it feels like a trip through a random checklist of things that played well in the first film…

Review of The Lone Ranger (2003)

By Ken Hanke (2,234) for Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) (2,247) on 08 Jul 2013

A film that is at once divinely silly, surprisingly deep and deceptively complex…

Review of 20 Feet from Stardom (2013)

By Ken Hanke (2,234) for Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) (2,247) on 08 Jul 2013

Not the deepest documentary you're likely to come across this year -- in fact, it's not deep at all -- but it may well be the most enjoyable one…
