Review of Righteous Kill (2008)

By Keith Phipps (1,177) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 24 Oct 2016

Trudging through a thriller that would have felt warmed over in 1988, the pair investigate a serial killer…

Review of Matchstick Men (2003)

By Keith Phipps (1,177) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 22 Oct 2016

A combination of criminal smoothness and overloaded neuroses, Cage pulls off the lead role better than any actor imaginable…

Review of The Game Plan (2007)

By Tasha Robinson (753) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 21 Oct 2016

It's a squeaky clean pre-John Hughes, pre-Farrelly brothers throwback to an era where the words Disney film meant something: a movie free of…

Review of Boo! A Madea Halloween (2016)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 20 Oct 2016

Madea remains a distinctive, weirdly compelling character. Maybe someday Perry will make a good comedy for her…

Review of Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines (2003)

By Nathan Rabin (1,078) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 20 Oct 2016

T3, while far from a classic, is an overachieving, mercenary sequel that's short on thrills, but surprisingly long on laughs and surprises…

Review of Fire at Sea (2016)

By Mike D'angelo (730) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 18 Oct 2016

All of the film’s constituent parts are superb (with the exception of the DJ segments, which do seem extraneous)…

Review of Michael Moore in TrumpLand (2016)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 18 Oct 2016

This 73-minute speech isn’t really much of a movie, and as advocacy it’s unlikely to reach Trump-leaning voters…

Review of Justin Timberlake + The Tennessee Kids (2016)

By Noel Murray (1,901) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 18 Oct 2016

Timberlake himself is a stunner, whether he’s smoothly pirouetting his way through “Suit & Tie” or he’s choking back tears during his…

Review of Tropic Thunder (2008)

By Tasha Robinson (753) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 17 Oct 2016

Maybe Stiller just seems stilted because he's the only one here who isn't playing to the rafters…

Review of Max Steel (2016)

By A.a. Dowd (854) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 13 Oct 2016

From its thinly sketched teen protagonist to its deluge of hero-will-rise clichés, Max Steel evinces all of the imagination and ambition you’d…

Review of Envy (2004)

By Keith Phipps (1,177) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 13 Oct 2016

In short, every element suggests Envy ought to be amusing, but the only comparably disastrous movie in recent memory involves Ben Affleck,…

Review of Quarantine (2008)

By Nathan Rabin (1,078) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 13 Oct 2016

Dowdle manages a few nice shocks and some neat moments of pitch-black gallows humor, but Quarantine nevertheless feels awfully familiar, and…

Review of Certain Women (2016)

By A.a. Dowd (854) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 11 Oct 2016

Like a lot of really strong short story collections, Certain Women is greater than the sum of its parts, even if one of those parts is also…

Review of Christine (2016)

By Mike D'angelo (730) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 11 Oct 2016

While the film does depict the suicide, that moment isn’t nearly as memorable as a pitch-perfect coda involving a fairly minor character,…

Review of Tower (2016)

By Mike D'angelo (730) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 10 Oct 2016

Maitland sticks close to the ground, providing a harrowing moment-to-moment account that foregrounds multiple acts of genuine heroism…

Review of The Bucket List (2007)

By Noel Murray (1,901) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 08 Oct 2016

There are certainly worse ways to spend the holiday season than in the company of two charming old actors, being reminded that human companionship…

Review of Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle (2004)

By Nathan Rabin (1,078) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 06 Oct 2016

Review of Being 17 (2016)

By Ignatiy Vishnevetsky (836) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 05 Oct 2016

Téchiné has made one of his simplest and most elemental films, which is both Being 17’s most arresting feature and its weakness…

Review of Primer (2004)

By Scott Tobias (1,684) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 02 Oct 2016

A brainteaser of the first order, Primer ranks among the best of recent thrillers such as Memento or The Matrix, which rupture the fabric of…

Review of Observe and Report (2009)

By Scott Tobias (1,684) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 30 Sep 2016

Something of a cross between the formalist whimsy of Wes Anderson and the God's-lonely-man psychosis of Taxi Driver, the film breaks all the…
