Review of Wish I Was Here (2014)

By Anthony Morris (102) for The Vine (179) on 21 Sep 2014

Review of Predestination (2013)

By Anthony Morris (102) for The Vine (179) on 02 Sep 2014

[Sarah] Snook's performance makes this story more than just a collection of clockwork turns; her tenderness at the story's core makes Predestination…

Review of The Expendables 3 (2014)

By Anthony Morris (102) for The Vine (179) on 13 Aug 2014

This is slightly more of a disappointment than the previous instalments, largely because (Banderas aside) it never gives any of the cast anything…

Review of A Most Wanted Man (2014)

By Anthony Morris (102) for The Vine (179) on 29 Jul 2014

Every glance and line of dialogue pushes the scene forward, every scene pushes the story forward, and if your attention wanders, there's a…

Review of Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)

By Anthony Morris (102) for The Vine (179) on 29 Jul 2014

Review of Transformers: Age of Extinction (2014)

By Anthony Morris (102) for The Vine (179) on 26 Jun 2014

Presumably there's some kind of story going on here but director Michael Bay doesn't seem all that interested in it so why should you be…

Review of 22 Jump Street (2014)

By Anthony Morris (102) for The Vine (179) on 18 Jun 2014

Review of Edge of Tomorrow (2014)

By Anthony Morris (102) for The Vine (179) on 05 Jun 2014

Smarter and funnier about its central conceit that you might expect and with a pair of great performances, [its] only serious flaw is a final…

Review of The Fault in Our Stars (2014)

By Anthony Morris (102) for The Vine (179) on 03 Jun 2014

Talking about performances or anything else traditionally associated with film is beside the point here, because the entire story is just a…

Review of Maleficent (2014)

By Anthony Morris (102) for The Vine (179) on 29 May 2014

The good news is, once Maleficent goes full evil Jolie really lets loose, sweeping through the film as a force of nature…

Review of Godzilla (2014)

By Anthony Morris (102) for The Vine (179) on 18 May 2014

Stunning, reverential and awe-inspiring in the best way, Godzilla hammers home the insignificance of individuals in the face of such forces…

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

By Paul Verhoeven (21) for The Vine (179) on 18 May 2014

The film is unfailing in its attention to detail, brutally unforgiving in its fan-service, and riddled with genuine moments of exultant joy…

Review of Neighbors (2014)

By Anthony Morris (102) for The Vine (179) on 11 May 2014

Actually, while the script is strong -- the episodic structure means everyone can improv away without derailing the overall plot, which is…

Review of Chef (2014)

By Anthony Morris (102) for The Vine (179) on 06 May 2014

Like all good food porn, the story here is wafer-thin at best…

Review of The Other Woman (2014)

By Anthony Morris (102) for The Vine (179) on 01 May 2014

You might start to get the feeling that this whole thing wasn't so much scripted as fished out of the lint filter of a busted washing machine…

Review of The Lego Movie (2014)

By Anthony Morris (102) for The Vine (179) on 03 Apr 2014

Review of Need for Speed (2014)

By Anthony Morris (102) for The Vine (179) on 13 Mar 2014
