Review of 22 Jump Street (2014)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 11 Jun 2014

Uproarious. Undermines everything we think we know about comedies, sequels, and two-year-breaks…

Review of The Signal (2014)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 11 Jun 2014

The Signal is a super-fascinating movie, with a whole lot of good ideas. It doesn't quite bring them together or congeal them into a coherent whole…

Review of Edge of Tomorrow (2014)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 04 Jun 2014

This is a movie with a lot on its mind. Perhaps too much…

Review of The Fault in Our Stars (2014)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 04 Jun 2014

In a worst-case scenario, this could have been an after-school special, or egregiously manipulative. But it's not, mostly- It earns the tears…

Review of McCanick (2014)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 26 May 2014

A completely by-the-numbers, cliched cop story for its first two thirds, before pivoting to an ending that's shocking but also totally indefensible…

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 21 May 2014

This is a fantastic movie…

Review of God's Pocket (2014)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 18 May 2014

Isn't a great movie by any means, but it does offer one tantalizing possibility- what if Philip Seymour Hoffman had lived long enough to play…

Review of Million Dollar Arm (2014)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 14 May 2014

This is, essentially, a corporation's idea of what an inspirational sports movie looks like, one filled with synergies and…

Review of Godzilla (2014)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 14 May 2014

It's beautifully filmed, the creatures look fantastic, and Edwards knows his way around a huge action setpiece- there were four or five sequences…

Review of Neighbors (2014)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 07 May 2014

A high-concept comedy that transcends its gimmick thanks to a witty script, some inventive humor and strong, multi-layered comedic performances…

Review of Dom Hemingway (2013)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 09 Apr 2014

A non-stop rampage of creative cursing, histrionics and debauchery. I loved it…

Review of Draft Day (2014)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 09 Apr 2014

To paraphrase Mel Kiper, it's obvious to me that the makers of Draft Day don't understand what the draft's all about…

Review of Muppets Most Wanted (2014)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 20 Mar 2014

A funny and very entertaining effort, which is sufficiently respectful and reverential of Muppet history without getting engulfed by it…

Review of Need for Speed (2014)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 13 Mar 2014

It's legitimately exciting. The car chase scenes are phenomenal. And Aaron Paul shows that he can very much carry a movie as the lead…

Review of The Grand Budapest Hotel (2014)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 13 Mar 2014

It's a caper, and an adventure and a comedy and a sad drama- all of it quintessentially Anderson…

Review of The Bag Man (2014)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 06 Mar 2014

When thrillers are bad, it's usually for one of three reasons: Because they're ridiculous, boring, or disgustingly repulsive…

Review of Non-Stop (2014)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 27 Feb 2014

The plot doesn't even begin to hold together, and the ultimate reveal of the evil plan makes not a damn lick of sense…

Review of 3 Days to Kill (2014)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 20 Feb 2014

The tone here is just generally all over the place, jumping from action blowouts to screwball comedy to father-daughter pathos…

Review of About Last Night (2014)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 13 Feb 2014

The 2014 version is funnier and more entertaining than the original, and not only because Kevin Hart is such a better performer than Jim Belushi…
