Review of The Amazing Spider-Man (2012)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 01 Jul 2012

A reasonably competent superhero film that nevertheless has just about no reason to exist…

Review of Magic Mike (2012)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 27 Jun 2012

Fans of beefcake won't be disappointed- but for everyone else, it's expertly staged and absolutely hilarious…

Review of Brave (2012)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 21 Jun 2012

Looks great and has some impressive characterizations, it's quite lacking in the plot department, and is missing that special something…

Review of Seeking a Friend for the End of the World (2012)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 20 Jun 2012

It's one kind of movie for its first half, and then becomes something different and less interesting the further it goes on…

Review of Moonrise Kingdom (2012)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 07 Jun 2012

Did you think Wes Anderson had no more tricks up his sleeve, that he was just showing us the same thing over and over again, that he couldn't…

Review of Snow White and the Huntsman (2012)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 30 May 2012

Yet another film that tells us, over and over again, that Kristen Stewart is the most valuable, sought-after being in the universe, without…

Review of Men in Black 3 (2012)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 23 May 2012

With the exception of the special effects department, I get the sense that just about no one in any aspect of the production tried, at all…

Review of What to Expect When You're Expecting (2012)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 16 May 2012

As star-studded adaptations of popular, nonfiction, non-narrative self-help books go, 'What To Expect' is surprisingly not terrible…

Review of The Dictator (2012)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 15 May 2012

A mediocre knockoff of Coming to America, if Prince Akeem had been both less funny, and a notorious war criminal…

Review of Dark Shadows (2012)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 10 May 2012

A bit of a mess, with way too many characters and full of jarring tonal shifts…

Review of The Avengers (2012)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 05 May 2012

A nearly complete success. It's the best action superhero movie since the first Iron Man, and the best Marvel Comics adaptation since Spider-man 2…

Review of The Five-Year Engagement (2012)

By Stephen Silver (684) for EntertainmentTell (372) on 25 Apr 2012

A great beginning and a very strong ending, but in between is a middle section that isn't very funny and seems to drag on forever…

Review of The Cabin in the Woods (2012)

By Stephen Silver (684) for Patch (52) on 11 Apr 2012

A supremely creative and original horror/comedy that goes in some genuinely shocking directions…

Review of American Reunion (2012)

By Stephen Silver (684) for Patch (52) on 10 Apr 2012

A pretty transparent nostalgia exercise that never veers from formula and takes no risks. But it's still exceptionally funny and enjoyable…

Review of Mirror Mirror (2012)

By Stephen Silver (684) for Patch (52) on 28 Mar 2012

While it sports fine chemistry between its leads and a unique, creative look, it's considerably uneven and not especially memorable…

Review of The Hunger Games (2012)

By Stephen Silver (684) for Patch (52) on 22 Mar 2012

Lawrence and the character she plays are excellent. But the movie's story is told poorly, too slowly and with little momentum…

Review of Salmon Fishing in the Yemen (2012)

By Stephen Silver (684) for Patch (52) on 15 Mar 2012

It's one part romantic comedy, one part nature travelogue, one part globalization parable and one part cynical, In the Loop-style British political…

Review of Casa de Mi Padre (2012)

By Stephen Silver (684) for Patch (52) on 15 Mar 2012

Won't join the list of Ferrell's best films, but it's very funny and a worthy diversion…

Review of Seeking Justice (2011)

By Stephen Silver (684) for The Trend (130) on 15 Mar 2012

Just as bad as most of what Cage has been doing lately, but doesn't offer any of the campy delight of The Wicker Man or Drive Angry…

Review of This Means War (2012)

By Stephen Silver (684) for Patch (52) on 16 Feb 2012

A bottom-feeding mess. Everyone involved has done much better work and would likely like to forget about this…
