Review of 47 Ronin (2013)

By Luke Y. Thompson (1,447) for The Robot's Voice (149) on 24 Dec 2013

Review of Saving Mr. Banks (2013)

By Luke Y. Thompson (1,447) for The Robot's Voice (149) on 17 Dec 2013

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

By Luke Y. Thompson (1,447) for The Robot's Voice (149) on 06 Dec 2013

As a fragmentary middle piece of something, it isn't complete unto itself, which makes final judgment hard…

Review of Oldboy (2013)

By Luke Y. Thompson (1,447) for The Robot's Voice (149) on 26 Nov 2013

s strong as it may be in some areas, this new version is still ultimately little more than a passable cover tune…

Review of The Hunger Games: Catching Fire (2013)

By Luke Y. Thompson (1,447) for The Robot's Voice (149) on 20 Nov 2013

Review of The Congress (2013)

By Luke Y. Thompson (1,447) for The Robot's Voice (149) on 15 Nov 2013

I'm impressed with this live-action/animated hybrid, but not as engaged as I'd hoped, though I'm pretty sure it merits further contemplation…

Review of Thor: The Dark World (2013)

By Luke Y. Thompson (1,447) for The Robot's Voice (149) on 04 Nov 2013

Review of Ender's Game (2013)

By Luke Y. Thompson (1,447) for The Robot's Voice (149) on 31 Oct 2013

The folks who patronized Chick-fil-A as a political gesture may feel quite hoodwinked if they try to do likewise here…

Review of Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa (2013)

By Luke Y. Thompson (1,447) for The Robot's Voice (149) on 24 Oct 2013

An entirely conventional filmed comedy with this pair could have worked, and I suspect a gonzo, Jackass-style montage would have been decent…

Review of Big Ass Spider! (2013)

By Luke Y. Thompson (1,447) for The Robot's Voice (149) on 17 Oct 2013

All the pacing of a classic monster movie is here, though director Mike Mendez is a bit more generous with revealing his carnivorous critter…

Review of The Seasoning House (2012)

By Luke Y. Thompson (1,447) for The Robot's Voice (149) on 08 Oct 2013

It's atmospheric and a tense journey, arguably not unlike Gravity if you were to replace the vacuum of space with a bunch of angry, accented dudes…

Review of Gravity (2013)

By Luke Y. Thompson (1,447) for The Robot's Voice (149) on 03 Oct 2013

Review of Riddick (2013)

By Luke Y. Thompson (1,447) for The Robot's Voice (149) on 05 Sep 2013

Should this universe get expanded on the creators' terms, I'm game for more - but would prefer it not be yet another variation on monsters…

Review of Scenic Route (2013)

By Luke Y. Thompson (1,447) for The Robot's Voice (149) on 22 Aug 2013

Perhaps even more effectively than The World's End - but in a less escapist fashion - this is a parable of responsibilities and foibles filtered…

Review of The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones (2013)

By Luke Y. Thompson (1,447) for The Robot's Voice (149) on 20 Aug 2013

Review of The World's End (2013)

By Luke Y. Thompson (1,447) for The Robot's Voice (149) on 20 Aug 2013

By Luke Y. Thompson (1,447) for The Robot's Voice (149) on 14 Aug 2013

Review of 2 Guns (2013)

By Luke Y. Thompson (1,447) for The Robot's Voice (149) on 31 Jul 2013
