Review of Out of the Furnace (2013)

By Scott Mendelson (400) for Forbes (586) on 10 Aug 2014

Set in a place where the American Dream has been dead for so long that no one even thinks to question its loss, the picture features terrific…

Review of The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug (2013)

By Scott Mendelson (400) for Forbes (586) on 10 Aug 2014

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug is technically better than The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey in the same way Attack of the Clones was technically…

Review of Non-Stop (2013)

By Scott Mendelson (400) for Forbes (586) on 10 Aug 2014

Non-Stop is the kind of film that Hitchcock might have made in his heyday, or at least one he would have enjoyed…

Review of Saving Mr. Banks (2013)

By Scott Mendelson (400) for Forbes (586) on 10 Aug 2014

The picture is eventually about the therapeutic limitations of art even while celebrating the very real effect it can have on people who need it…

Review of Lone Survivor (2013)

By Scott Mendelson (400) for Forbes (586) on 10 Aug 2014

Lone Survivor comes off as a celebration of the martyred American soldier, that myth that makes it that much easier for old men to send young…

Review of Herø (2001)

By Scott Mendelson (400) for Forbes (586) on 10 Aug 2014

Her is a winning discussion of the idealization of women and the possessive nature of monogamous relationships in a somewhat warmer fashion…

Review of Her (2013)

By Scott Mendelson (400) for Forbes (586) on 10 Aug 2014

Her is a winning discussion of the idealization of women and the possessive nature of monogamous relationships in a somewhat warmer fashion…

Review of 47 Ronin (1994)

By Scott Mendelson (400) for Forbes (586) on 10 Aug 2014

47 Ronin looks from the outset like a picture that went off without a hitch…

Review of The Wolf of Wall Street (2013)

By Scott Mendelson (400) for Forbes (586) on 10 Aug 2014

I genuinely fear an entire generation of young would-be financial gurus seeing this film as their Scarface, reveling in the wish-fulfillment…

Review of 47 Ronin (2013)

By Scott Mendelson (400) for Forbes (586) on 10 Aug 2014

47 Ronin looks from the outset like a picture that went off without a hitch…

Review of Batman: Assault on Arkham (2014)

By Scott Mendelson (400) for Forbes (586) on 06 Aug 2014

The title says Batman and his face takes up most of the box art, but this is less an adaptation of the Batman/Arkham video games than a straight-up…

Review of Transcendence (2014)

By Scott Mendelson (400) for Forbes (586) on 31 Jul 2014

It is not only a bad film, it is a rather boring film…

Review of 22 Jump Street (2014)

By Scott Mendelson (400) for Forbes (586) on 31 Jul 2014

Its adhering to formula nearly kills the film for that middle hour while the bromance plot thread is arguably based in latent homophobia…

Review of Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2 (2013)

By Scott Mendelson (400) for Forbes (586) on 31 Jul 2014

Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs 2 is an example of a superior animated sequel that builds on the ideas of the first film and enriches its mythology…

Review of Noah and the Last Days (2014)

By Scott Mendelson (400) for Forbes (586) on 31 Jul 2014

The film sometimes plays like a Bible story filtered through the lens of a Snow White and the Huntsman -type re-imagining…

Review of Despicable Me 2 (2013)

By Scott Mendelson (400) for Forbes (586) on 31 Jul 2014

The first act of Despicable Me 2 is so winning and engaging that it's almost a tragedy how the rest of the film falls into bargain basement formula…

Review of Iron Man 3 (2013)

By Scott Mendelson (400) for Forbes (586) on 31 Jul 2014

Iron Man 3 is, perhaps by default, the best comic book superhero threequel yet…

Review of The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (2014)

By Scott Mendelson (400) for Forbes (586) on 31 Jul 2014

The film is a narrative disaster, but the character work is mostly solid and the terrific action scenes are worth the price of admission…

Review of Transformers: Age of Extinction (2014)

By Scott Mendelson (400) for Forbes (586) on 31 Jul 2014

I'm not going to say that Transformers: Age of Extinction is quite good. But it is arguably the least bad of the franchise…
