Godzilla (2014) 76% 3/4 EDIT “Edwards' version of "Godzilla" remains the ultimate monster movie. The legacy has been upheld.” – Associated Press May 13, 2014 Full Review Chef (2014) 87% 3/4 EDIT “A delectable take on an out-of-work cook who experiences career rejuvenation when traveling cross-country serving Cuban entrees on a foodtruck.” – Associated Press May 6, 2014 Full Review Brick Mansions (2014) 25% 2/4 EDIT “"Brick Mansions" packs gunfights, car chases, acrobatic stunts and humor into one stylized package.” – Associated Press Apr 24, 2014 Full Review Heaven Is for Real (2014) 52% 2/4 EDIT “We might have expected more from writer-director Randall Wallace, who brought us the Oscar-nominated "Braveheart." But the material is pretty cookie-cutter and more typical of an afterschool special.” – Associated Press Apr 16, 2014 Full Review Rio 2 (2014) 50% 3/4 EDIT “With so much going on, it's a wonder this kids' movie is only five minutes longer than the original. But for the music and brilliantly picturesque look, it's worth the 3-D ticket.” – Associated Press Apr 10, 2014 Full Review Dom Hemingway (2013) 58% 2.5/4 EDIT “An amusing tale of vengeance, debauchery and redemption told stylishly by writer-director Richard Shepard.” – Associated Press Apr 3, 2014 Full Review Need for Speed (2014) 23% 3/4 EDIT “Overall, this flashy underworld of super-charged machinery and intense action is a blast.” – Associated Press Mar 12, 2014 Full Review Therese (2013) 41% 2.5/4 EDIT “Elizabeth Olsen, Oscar Isaacs, Tom Felton and Jessica Lange offer compelling performances in a provocative remake that's stirring until its withered end.” – Associated Press Feb 19, 2014 Full Review About Last Night (2014) 68% EDIT “A reboot that is as satisfying as breakfast in bed the morning after an unexpected rendezvous.” – Associated Press Feb 12, 2014 Full Review The LEGO Movie (2014) 96% EDIT “The filmmakers could have easily made one long, monotonous ad for the beloved brand that's been around for more than 55 years. Instead they've created a delightful tale championing self-reliance and distinctiveness.” – Associated Press Feb 6, 2014 Full Review That Awkward Moment (2014) 23% 2/4 EDIT “Though ''Awkward Moment'' is predictable, it's not a complete disappointment. It's satisfying for a lover of formulaic rom-coms.” – Associated Press Jan 30, 2014 Full Review Ride Along (2014) 18% 2.5/4 EDIT “Joining the ranks of odd-couple police comedies, ''Ride Along'' delivers laughs over action, with loudmouthed funnyman Kevin Hart driving the hilarity.” – Associated Press Jan 15, 2014 Full Review Her (2013) 95% EDIT “In a dark theater, surrounded by the wondrous world Jonze creates in Her, it's difficult to avoid getting emotional.” – Associated Press Jan 10, 2014 Full Review The Wolf of Wall Street (2013) 79% 3.5/4 EDIT “Digging into deep-pocket gluttony, Martin Scorsese's dark comedy ''The Wolf of Wall Street'' highlights a world rich in drugs, fast cars and private jets. The American dream is amplified, yet those indulging in it are never satisfied.” – Associated Press Dec 23, 2013 Full Review The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (2013) 52% 3/4 EDIT “The outlandish scenes in ''Mitty'' bring the most memorable element of the original tale - reality bending - to the forefront.” – Associated Press Dec 20, 2013 Full Review American Hustle (2013) 92% 3.5/4 EDIT “The film may lack grit but the stellar cast adds to its allure, helping to round out this dynamic account where reinvention offers the means to endure.” – Associated Press Dec 9, 2013 Full Review Inside Llewyn Davis (2013) 92% 2.5/4 EDIT “The film is a heavy downer and its consistent gray-hue enhances the bleakness. But the Coen brothers never fail to weave in bits of saucy irony, giving way for essential comical moments that bring everything full-circle.” – Associated Press Dec 3, 2013 Full Review Frozen (2013) 89% 2.5/4 EDIT “The animation in ''Frozen'' is premium and the 3-D earmark adds to the pearly appeal of the ice and snow, but we are lacking in the sweeping romance we've grown accustomed to in a Disney princess movie.” – Associated Press Nov 25, 2013 Full Review Nebraska (2013) 90% EDIT “The performances are what truly accentuate this narrative. Forte carries off every complex quirk, while seasoned actor Dern is uncharacteristically subdued.” – Associated Press Nov 15, 2013 Full Review The Book Thief (2013) 50% 3.5/4 EDIT “The film shines a bright light on Nelisse, a fresh young talent whose expressive eyes say everything.” – Associated Press Nov 7, 2013 Full Review Free Birds (2013) 20% 2/4 EDIT “A solid premiere effort that shows Reel FX's potential to produce quality full-length animation. But the story-line, with its hypothetical constituents, seems a little desperate at times, even for a kiddie film.” – Associated Press Oct 31, 2013 Full Review
