Review of Cowboys & Aliens (2011)

By Debbie Baldwin (220) for Ladue News (220) on 05 Dec 2018

The cast is outstanding. The story is compelling-at times, even touching, and the aliens are cool…

Review of Avatar (2009)

By Debbie Baldwin (220) for Ladue News (220) on 05 Dec 2018

The plot, sadly, is so predictable I found myself saying lines of dialogue before they happened…

Review of Amelia (2009)

By Debbie Baldwin (220) for Ladue News (220) on 05 Dec 2018

Seasoned director Mira Nair goes way off the rails in almost every way-from the lack of chemistry in Earhart and Putnam's seeming relationship…

Review of The Lovely Bones (2009)

By Debbie Baldwin (220) for Ladue News (220) on 05 Dec 2018

Director Peter Jackson's brilliant ability to bring fantasy to film may have been his Achilles heel here, as he dwells with signature fondness…

Review of Austenland (2013)

By Debbie Baldwin (220) for Ladue News (220) on 20 Nov 2018

The film is light and fun and amusing. In fact, my biggest criticism is that the movie doesn't take the story seriously enough…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Debbie Baldwin (220) for Ladue News (220) on 20 Nov 2018

I have to say most people, including myself, prefer to watch a romance take place with a younger couple, but with these two seasoned and compelling…

Review of After Earth (2013)

By Debbie Baldwin (220) for Ladue News (220) on 20 Nov 2018

After Earth, a witless, banal, tedious, melodramatic special-effects fest that is disappointing from the opening sequence until the credits role…

Review of Man of Steel (2013)

By Debbie Baldwin (220) for Ladue News (220) on 20 Nov 2018

Review of The Avengers (2012)

By Debbie Baldwin (220) for Ladue News (220) on 20 Nov 2018

Review of Hitchcock (2012)

By Debbie Baldwin (220) for Ladue News (220) on 20 Nov 2018

Even if you've never seen a Hitchcock film in your life, it's worth seeing for the performances alone…

Review of The Three Stooges (2012)

By Debbie Baldwin (220) for Ladue News (220) on 20 Nov 2018

The casting of the trio is spot on and the supporting cast is strong, as well. I laughed out loud on several occasions…

Review of J. Edgar (2011)

By Debbie Baldwin (220) for Ladue News (220) on 20 Nov 2018

The acting is wonderful, as one would expect, but the story lacks punch…

Review of Friends with Kids (2012)

By Debbie Baldwin (220) for Ladue News (220) on 20 Nov 2018

All in all, this is a smart, charming and endearing film…

Review of Non-Stop (2014)

By Debbie Baldwin (220) for Ladue News (220) on 13 Nov 2018

This movie is a complete and utter waste of time. Not even the talents of Neeson and Julianne Moore can redeem it…

Review of District 9 (2009)

By Debbie Baldwin (220) for Ladue News (220) on 13 Nov 2018

I won't tell you to rush out and see it, but in these days of sequels and remakes, this was an interesting original…

Review of Focus (2015)

By Debbie Baldwin (220) for Ladue News (220) on 13 Nov 2018

The movie makes a valiant effort, the twists are clever and surprising, but the palpable lack of heat between Smith and Robbie hurts the story…

Review of Closed Circuit (2013)

By Debbie Baldwin (220) for Ladue News (220) on 13 Nov 2018

As it is, despite being extremely well-acted, it's just another OK spy thriller to add to the pile…
