Dark Knight


Critics' Consensus: Succeeds as entertaining comic book film, and richly thrilling crime saga.

Synopsis: To say that Christopher Nolan's THE DARK KNIGHT is the best comic book adaptation does the film a bit of a disservice. It may be a Batman film, but this isn't a kid-friendly action movie full of the bams and pows of the original series. This … [More...]

Hancock


Critics' Consensus: Begins with promise, but suffers from a flimsy narrative.

Synopsis: There are heroes… there are superheroes… and then there’s Hancock (Will Smith). With great power comes great responsibility – everyone knows that – everyone, that is, but Hancock. Edgy, conflicted, sarcastic, and misunderstood, Hancock’s well… [More...]

Happening


Critics' Consensus: Begins with promise, but descends into an incoherent, unconvincing trifle.

Hellboy II: The Golden Army


Critics' Consensus: ...the visuals are as imaginative as the characters are endearing.

Synopsis: HELLBOY II: THE GOLDEN ARMY begs any number of referential mash-ups to be used as description of its outlandish tonal and stylistic qualities. It's a little like a romantic and sophisticated live-action Ninja Turtles movie imbued with a crack… [More...]

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull


Critics' Consensus: Harrison Ford's return as Indiana Jones is more than welcome.

Iron Man


Critics' Consensus: Even non-comics fans can enjoy this smart, high impact superhero movie.

Synopsis: For both comic book fans and those who can't tell the Green Lantern from the Green Arrow, IRON MAN is the type of summer blockbuster whose appeal lasts far beyond the season. Robert Downey Jr. stars as Tony Stark, a billionaire playboy and ge… [More...]

Journey to the Center of the Earth


Critics' Consensus: ...a fast-paced, kitschy ride.

Synopsis: This 2008 movie update of Jules Verne's classic sci-fi/fantasy novel uses the 1864 tale as a template, with its hero, scientist Trevor Anderson (Brendan Fraser), referring to his missing brother's notes on the novel. His nephew Sean (Josh Hut… [More...]

Kung Fu Panda


Critics' Consensus: A pleasing mix of humor, swift martial arts action, and colorful animation.

Mamma Mia!


Critics' Consensus: ...you may not feel like "You Can Dance" the whole 90 minutes.
