Review of The Rover (2014)

By Jonathan W. Hickman (551) for Daily Film Fix (355) on 19 Jun 2014

The central performances are excellent if not capable of being too finely cut given the meandering, dare I say roving, narrative…

Review of How to Train Your Dragon 2 (2014)

By Jonathan W. Hickman (551) for Daily Film Fix (355) on 12 Jun 2014

Dreamworks sure knows HOW to make a sequel: just add more dragons…

Review of Edge of Tomorrow (2014)

By Jonathan W. Hickman (551) for Daily Film Fix (355) on 05 Jun 2014

The first two acts are excellent, but the film loses steam as the action slows and the story becomes ever more familiar and less inventive…

Review of X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014)

By Jonathan W. Hickman (551) for Daily Film Fix (355) on 22 May 2014

As action-packed as it is, the quiet moments work best and, like 2011's First Class, the superhero universe of the X-Men is a cut above its…

Review of Godzilla (2014)

By Jonathan W. Hickman (551) for Daily Film Fix (355) on 15 May 2014

If audiences endorse this reboot of the Godzilla tale, we may see a franchise…

Review of The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (2014)

By Jonathan W. Hickman (551) for Daily Film Fix (355) on 01 May 2014

Review of Transcendence (2014)

By Jonathan W. Hickman (551) for Daily Film Fix (355) on 17 Apr 2014

possesses a lot of the same handsome camera work that seamlessly melded with special-effects in Nolan's Inception for which Pfister won…

Review of Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014)

By Jonathan W. Hickman (551) for Daily Film Fix (355) on 03 Apr 2014

As the film moves into its final act, it gets a little too familiar, even a bit baggy…

Review of Divergent (2014)

By Jonathan W. Hickman (551) for Daily Film Fix (355) on 21 Mar 2014

Like a Great Illustrated Classics adaptation of a lesser comic book, Divergent delivers a dystopian plot with mechanical precision but lacks…

Review of Need for Speed (2014)

By Jonathan W. Hickman (551) for Daily Film Fix (355) on 14 Mar 2014

When describing a film about golf years ago, I remember the late great film critic Roger Ebert talked about the Zen of the game…

Review of In Secret (2014)

By Jonathan W. Hickman (551) for Daily Film Fix (355) on 24 Feb 2014

Not romantic enough, not nearly sexy enough, and not thrilling enough to be considered a thriller, In Secret is easy on the eyes but does little…

Review of RoboCop (2014)

By Jonathan W. Hickman (551) for Daily Film Fix (355) on 12 Feb 2014

Hardly a better film than the one that inspired it, ROBOCOP (2014) is still the best handling of the material since 1987…

Review of Her (2013)

By Jonathan W. Hickman (551) for Daily Film Fix (355) on 10 Jan 2014

The problem with the film is the inherent limitation imposed by the story and visual scope. At times, HER is like the HOBBIT without the dragon…

Review of The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (2013)

Review of Saving Mr. Banks (2013)

By Jonathan W. Hickman (551) for Daily Film Fix (355) on 20 Dec 2013

Review of The Armstrong Lie (2013)

By Jonathan W. Hickman (551) for Daily Film Fix (355) on 13 Dec 2013

Gibney tries in vain to get to the heart of the story. Probing questions get answered, but most viewers won't be satisfied…

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

By Jonathan W. Hickman (551) for Daily Film Fix (355) on 13 Dec 2013

Review of The Hunger Games: Catching Fire (2013)

By Jonathan W. Hickman (551) for Daily Film Fix (355) on 20 Nov 2013
