- DirectorFrank CoraciStarsAdam SandlerDrew BarrymoreWendi McLendon-CoveyAfter a bad blind date, a man and woman find themselves stuck together at a resort for families, where their attraction grows as their respective kids benefit from the burgeoning relationship.Not as horrible as Sandlers other recent films. Yet when I think of the worse of the year it came straight to mind. It's watchable but just totally predictable.
- DirectorKenneth BranaghStarsChris PineKevin CostnerKeira KnightleyJack Ryan, as a young covert C.I.A. analyst, uncovers a Russian plot to crash the U.S. economy with a terrorist attack.Not horrible but it turned Jack Ryan into a cliche hero who rides a motorcycle. Kevin Costner isn't bad at least. But the movie just makes me miss the 90's when they knew how to make good thrillers. And when they actually made Jack Ryan films that were based on a Tom Clancy novel.
The film is even a poor comparison to weaker Jack Ryan films like Patriot Games and the Sum of All Fears. - DirectorJosé PadilhaStarsJoel KinnamanGary OldmanMichael KeatonIn 2028 Detroit, when Alex Murphy, a loving husband, father and good cop, is critically injured in the line of duty, the multinational conglomerate OmniCorp sees their chance for a part-man, part-robot police officer.Not completely bad but unnecessary and just not anywhere near as good as the original.
- DirectorDavid AyerStarsArnold SchwarzeneggerSam WorthingtonTerrence HowardMembers of an elite DEA task force find themselves being taken down one by one after they rob a drug cartel safe house.The film actually has a pretty decent performance by Arnold Schwarzenegger. But it wastes such a fantastic cast and gives a decent mystery thriller a cop-out ending that barely makes sense.
Spoiler: And it's silly that we're supposed to believe Schwarzenegger at his age can just suddenly disappear in thin air the second the woman cop has suspicions. - DirectorStiles WhiteStarsOlivia CookeAna CotoDaren KagasoffA group of friends must confront their most terrifying fears when they awaken the dark powers of an ancient spirit board.Playing with a Quija board is more thrilling.
- DirectorScott WaughStarsAaron PaulDominic CooperImogen PootsFresh from prison, a street racer who was framed by a wealthy business associate joins a cross-country race with revenge in mind. His ex-partner, learning of the plan, places a massive bounty on his head as the race begins.You'll have the "need" to watch Drive or a Fast & Furious movie instead.
- DirectorSteven QualeStarsRichard ArmitageSarah Wayne CalliesMatt WalshStorm trackers, thrill-seekers, and everyday townspeople document an unprecedented onslaught of tornadoes touching down in the town of Silverton.Not terrible but Twister is more entertaining and watchable even despite being pretty goofy. The characters just aren't interesting and there's no one to really root for.
- DirectorJohn R. LeonettiStarsWard HortonAnnabelle WallisAlfre WoodardA couple begins to experience terrifying supernatural occurrences involving a vintage doll shortly after their home is invaded by satanic cultists.Just watch the Conjuring again.
- DirectorSam MillerStarsTaraji P. HensonIdris ElbaLeslie BibbAn unstable escaped convict terrorizes a woman who is alone with her two children.To get the point across about how bad the Idris Elba character is; the news broadcaster in the beginning goes on and on about how many horrible things he has done. So we know everytime someone is on screen with him they're in danger.
The movie is bland and badly written. And for someone who is supposed to have so much charisma that he is up for the next James Bond. Elba is pretty one dimensional here. I haven't been terribly impressed by him yet honestly.
And the movie is so bad that the weather seems to be on Elba's side. Like it thunders and rains harder when he gets ready to leave his obvious hostages house so she can say "come in." Or when her friend asks him too many questions about where he is from. Time for a tree branch to come through the kitchen window. - DirectorRobert RodriguezStarsDanny TrejoAlexa PenaVegaMel GibsonThe U.S. government recruits Machete to battle his way through Mexico in order to take down an arms dealer who looks to launch a weapon into space.
