Film Reviews
The Amazing Spider-Man
The Amazing Spider-Meh might be a better name for this dullish retread.
The Do-Deca-Pentathlon
Two estranged brothers revive their childhood competitions, much to the alarm of their families in this Duplass brothers' microbudget throwback.
Katy Perry: Part of Me
The film is an inoffensive slice of canny brand (or is that non-Brand?) management and marketing.
Savages
Oliver Stone’s movie is volatile, nasty, hypnotic, gory, and nearly irrestible – at least when the young 'uns aren't onscreen.
To Rome With Love
Ambling and merely passable, this new Woody Allen picture lacks a raison d'être.
Tyler Perry's Madea's Witness Protection
No luck: Madea doesn't assume a new identity and disappear. Instead the old gal takes in Eugene Levy, playing an investor implicated in a Ponzi scheme.
