Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017) 91% 3.5/5 EDIT “Gorgeous cinematography, solid performances & one of the best scenes in Star Wars history. Though, it has issues incl. unnecessary comedy that affects tone. Liked but didn't love.” – WTTG-TV (FOX TV) Dec 13, 2017 Full Review Justice League (2017) 39% 4/5 EDIT “Tell me. Do you want to see the Justice League assemble and kick some major a**? You will.” – WTTG-TV (FOX TV) Nov 16, 2017 Full Review Interstellar (2014) 73% 5/5 EDIT “The combination of NO green screen, incredible practical effects, Zimmer's score and a solid emotional core makes this Nolan's most complete flick to date. I had major nerd tears! See in 70mm IMAX film!” – NerdTears.com Nov 8, 2014 Full Review Gravity (2013) 96% 5/5 EDIT “Gravity is the game-changing film of our generation. Cuaron has created a technical and emotional masterpiece that elevates the art form! See the film in IMAX 3D!” – NerdTears.com Oct 3, 2013 Full Review Man of Steel (2013) 57% 4.5/5 EDIT “Zack Snyder marries Hans Zimmer's brilliant film score with the non-stop action resulting in an insane amount of Nerd Tears! Emotional and action-packed! Skip the 3D.” – NerdTears.com Jun 14, 2013 Full Review Star Trek Into Darkness (2013) 84% 4/5 EDIT “Through Abrams' beautiful use of Giacchino's epic film score, 35mm anamorphic lens flares, and his incredible detail in character, I found myself weeping nerd tears! See it in IMAX!” – NerdTears.com May 16, 2013 Full Review Iron Man 3 (2013) 79% 4/5 EDIT “The epic action brought nerd tears to my eyes! Shane Black delivers a witty, action-packed flick with great twists. See it in 2D as the 3D conversion lacks great depth!” – NerdTears.com May 2, 2013 Full Review Cloud Atlas (2012) 66% 3/5 EDIT “Cloud Atlas is masterful in concept but mediocre in execution. Three of the stories worked while the other three lacked the emotional depth required for a 3-hour flick!” – NerdTears.com Oct 28, 2012 Full Review Lawless (2012) 67% 4/5 EDIT “Lawless uses it's extreme bloody violence as a character to propel this riveting and emotional story forward. Hardy and Pearce deliver incredibly engaging performances!” – NerdTears.com Aug 30, 2012 Full Review The Expendables 2 (2012) 68% 4/5 EDIT “The Expendables 2 has roundhouse kicks, cheesy one-liners, Chuck Norris jokes and Schwarzenegger/Stallone/Willis action scenes! It's the perfect flick to help you let off some steam!” – GeekNation Aug 17, 2012 Full Review The Bourne Legacy (2012) 56% 2.5/5 EDIT “The Bourne Legacy needs Matt Damon, better action and an ending. The best part about this flick is James Newton Howards incredible score!” – GeekNation Aug 10, 2012 Full Review The Dark Knight Rises (2012) 87% 4/5 EDIT “The Dark Knight Rises is underwhelming compared to it's two predecessor's yet Nolan still delivers a satisfying conclusion to his epic trilogy! See it in true 70mm IMAX!” – NerdTears.com Jul 19, 2012 Full Review Savages (2012) 50% 3.5/5 EDIT “Savages is a solid flick for the first two hours and four minutes. I'm still flabbergasted and scratching my head at the choice Oliver Stone made to end the film!” – NerdTears.com Jul 6, 2012 Full Review The Amazing Spider-Man (2012) 71% 3/5 EDIT “The Amazing Spider-Man succeeds as a great love story but ultimately fails as a super hero flick. Should you see the film in 2D? 3D? or 3D IMAX? Click for full review!” – NerdTears.com Jul 3, 2012 Full Review Prometheus (2012) 73% 5/5 EDIT “"Prometheus" is a cinematic masterpiece with beautifully haunting visuals and an epic score. Instead of spoon-feeding the audience, Scott allows you to think for yourself!” – NerdTears.com Jun 11, 2012 Full Review Marvel's the Avengers (2012) 91% 4/5 EDIT “Mark Ruffalo was born to the play The Hulk. There is a ten second epic action sequence that is worth the entire price of admission and every one of your nerd tears! Hulk Smash!” – NerdTears.com May 3, 2012 Full Review Think Like a Man (2012) 55% 2/5 EDIT “The product placement for Harvey's book is a blatant disregard for the audience's intelligence. I felt like I was watching a 3am "ShamWow" infomercial!” – NerdTears.com Apr 20, 2012 Full Review The Hunger Games (2012) 84% 4.5/5 EDIT “The Hunger Games completely transcends the teenage genre by presenting a film with a strong emotional core mixed with an epically bad-a** central character! I loved this movie!” – NerdTears.com Mar 22, 2012 Full Review Act of Valor (2012) 28% 3.5/5 EDIT “Through the use of active duty Navy SEALS, live ammo and helmet cameras, Act of Valor produces insanely realistic action. Just don't go in expecting good acting from the SEALS.” – NerdTears.com Feb 24, 2012 Full Review Chronicle (2012) 85% 5/5 EDIT “Chronicle is an absolutely incredible, brutally intense, emotionally engaging, original film that will blow your freaking mind. Stop what you're doing and see it now!” – NerdTears.com Feb 3, 2012 Full Review The Grey (2012) 80% 4/5 EDIT “Joe Carnahan delivers a rather brilliant, deeply emotional, philosophical flick that still finds time to show Liam Neeson's bad-a** side!” – NerdTears.com Jan 27, 2012 Full Review The Devil Inside (2012) 6% 1/5 EDIT “The Devil Inside is a terrible, uninspired, hack "found footage" flick whose trailer gives away every "scary" sequence!"” – NerdTears.com Jan 5, 2012 Full Review War Horse (2011) 74% 3.5/5 EDIT “A solid film with a masterful score and beautiful cinematography. While the film never reaches that level of Spielberg greatness, it contains my favorite scene of 2011.” – NerdTears.com Jan 1, 2012 Full Review The Artist (2011) 95% 4.5/5 EDIT “While I admired and enjoyed the film, it reminded me of drinking a Pepsi Throwback; tastes great but brings nothing new to the table.” – NerdTears.com Jan 1, 2012 Full Review Hugo (2011) 93% 5/5 EDIT “Martin Scorsese's love letter to filmmaking finally proves that 3D is a necessary aesthetic to storytelling if used correctly. I definitely shed a few nerd tears!” – NerdTears.com Nov 23, 2011 Full Review
