Review of One Day (2011)

By Tasha Robinson (753) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 16 Aug 2011

The ultimate end of the story reveals that it's all about Sturgess' suffering, which just isn't that compelling a topic…

Review of Final Destination 5 (2011)

By Tasha Robinson (753) for AV Club (2,778) on 10 Aug 2011

While FD5 is less generic and less facilely goofy and ironic than past series installments, it's still a rote execution of formula that scores…

Review of The Change-Up (2011)

By Tasha Robinson (753) for AV Club (2,778) on 03 Aug 2011

Has the faults of raucous recent scatological comedies like Bad Teacher, Horrible Bosses, and The Hangover Part II with none of their redeeming…

Review of Outlander (2008)

By Tasha Robinson (753) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 31 Jul 2011

Surprise number one: It's smarter than it looks. Surprise number two: That doesn't entirely ruin it as an action film…

Review of Bottle Shock (2008)

By Tasha Robinson (753) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 31 Jul 2011

Trouble is, it's too rambling and digressive to feel focused, yet too calculating to feel as observational and natural as a good Altman flick…

Review of The Smurfs (2011)

By Tasha Robinson (753) for AV Club (2,778) on 27 Jul 2011

Actual kids may find this fun, but for adults, watching The Smurfs may feel a little too much like trying to wrangle an overcrowded kiddie…

Review of The Eye (2008)

By Tasha Robinson (753) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 25 Jul 2011

The major problem is the death of a horror film: It's startling, but not particularly scary…

Review of Scoop (2006)

By Tasha Robinson (753) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 24 Jul 2011

As it is, the film perpetually teeters on the edge between a functional vehicle and a train wreck, and whenever Allen opens his mouth, he pushes…

Review of Captain America: The First Avenger (2011)

By Tasha Robinson (753) for AV Club (2,778) on 20 Jul 2011

For the most part, it manages to balance laughs, genuinely rousing moments, and a fully packed agenda into something fleet enough to keep running…

Review of Another Earth (2011)

By Tasha Robinson (753) for AV Club (2,778) on 19 Jul 2011

It's an ambitious premise and a risky approach, but Cahill and his cast execute it beautifully…

Review of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 (2011)

By Tasha Robinson (753) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 13 Jul 2011

Review of The Science of Sleep (2006)

By Tasha Robinson (753) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 08 Jul 2011

An indie version of Gondry's Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, albeit with none of the star power, a quarter of the budget, half the angst,…

Review of The Duchess (2008)

By Tasha Robinson (753) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 02 Jul 2011

Taken in isolation from the unsatisfying story, the performances are powerful--Knightley’s vivacious, wounded romantic does a great deal…

Review of Transformers: Dark of the Moon (2011)

By Tasha Robinson (753) for AV Club (2,778) on 28 Jun 2011

A wearyingly overlong series of battles and explosions with the thinnest of connective tissue and an ADD-like disregard for follow-through…

Review of Up (2009)

By Tasha Robinson (753) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 26 Jun 2011

Up is challenging, emotionally and narratively, but it trusts viewers to keep up; Pixar has never been interested in talking down to children…

Review of A Better Life (2011)

By Tasha Robinson (753) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 23 Jun 2011

A Better Life leans too heavily on sad music, broad symbols, and weighty speeches to tell its story; it's more effective when it lets images…

Review of Chicken Little (2005)

By Tasha Robinson (753) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 16 Jun 2011

Turning brief fairy tales into sweeping mini-epics has long been Disney's hallmark, but even for a fable, Chicken Little is thin stuff; it's…

Review of The Art of Getting By (2011)

By Tasha Robinson (753) for AV Club (2,778) on 15 Jun 2011

By the end, the most charming thing about The Art Of Getting By is that while its adults cut Highmore far too much slack, they aren't Hughes-movie…

Review of The Lovely Bones (2009)

By Tasha Robinson (753) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 09 Jun 2011
