The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug (2013) Full Streaming

Finding Nemo is laced with smart humor and clever gags, and buoyed by another cheery story of mismatched buddies: a pair of fish voiced by Albert Brooks and Ellen DeGeneres.. Be forewarned: Whether through ego, avarice, or unchecked enthusiasm, Jackson has wandered deep into the realm of fan fiction.. Finding Nemo works terribly hard for every scrap of charm or humor it imparts.. I recommend this movie to everyone out there want to see an epic action movie that delivers to every sense of the wor...

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 (2014) Watch Streaming

Craig has settled into a well-suited, grim-reaper role. Even when James flirts and trysts, his creased face suggests an unmovable weight.. The James Bond franchise turns 50 with a stellar entry that fires on all cylinders as an action picture but also casts a modest glance backward to its illustrious past.. The effect of so many Oscar-calibre actors speaking the generic dialogue is like watching pro ballplayers play T-ball.. Collins and the Lawrences have crossed the uncanny valley separating im...

Total Recall (2012) Online Streaming

. The best stuff in Jumper comes early, while the movie is still busy explaining its scenario. It's only when all the pieces are in place and the story actually kicks in that things start to fall apart, and quickly.. . The remake has no grace notes, or grace, no nuance, no humanity, no character quirks, no surprises in the dialogue and no humor .... The effects look great, but is that even worth noting when smart high-schoolers can make monsters on their laptops? What movie's effects don't look ...

Conan the Barbarian (2011) Watch Full Movie

Even for those missing their Harry Potter fix, this is some weak, watered-down stuff.. Rent the original instead.. Percy is a lot like a certain bespectacled young wizard - sans the lightning-shaped scar. It's too bad his adventures don't have the same enchanting quality.. "Sea of Monsters" is diverting enough - the director, Thor Freudenthal, is savvy with effects and keeps his young cast on point - but it doesn't begin to approach the biting adolescent tension of the Harry Potter movies. Momoa...

The conceptual sci-fi of the original series is nowhere to be found, though you might enjoy watching the skinny young actors approximate their counterparts from the 60s; Chris Pine is especially good as Captain Kirk.. For all its reckoning with mass destruction, this franchise's vision of a future Earth remains optimistic. The film mixes the iconically familiar with the futuristic.. The film is, for whatever else it might be, one of the funniest of the Star Trek entries.. Abrams boldly goes into...

It doesn't soar (though Pegasus the winged horse is captivating).. Apparently the gods need better agents.. At the moment when Sam Worthington, trapped inside a giant scorpion, sword-hacked his way through the dorsal carapace and poked the upper half of his body through the opening as if it were a sunroof, I fell in love with Clash of the Titans.. If you're into Greek mythos, or action, or slightly cheesy (but knowing) humor, then this should prove an adequate source of entertainment.. It doesn'...

Brave (2012) Download Movie

Youngsters with a taste for adventure will no doubt overlook the movie's workmanlike outlines and applaud its spirited, self-reliant heroine, who proves to be as appealingly unruly as her tumble of Titian curls.. It starts with a great story - of love and politics, time travel and mystical pathways between planets - badly sucked dry.. The Pixar name used to mean something. And it never quite meant pleasantly safe, safely forgettable movies like this.. The story, with its patchwork of plots (invo...

Wreck-It Ralph (2012) Online Streaming

The Road, a tremulous heartbreaker onscreen, has successfully made the leap despite an unthinkable amount of fidelity.. This adaptation of Cormac McCarthy's 2006 Pulitzer Prize-winning novel is intense and, yes, depressing -- and earns every minute that it rattles inside your head.. 'Wreck-It Ralph' combines a fresh idea with a true love for retro pop culture. It's hard not to love this movie.. Mortensen warms the film with his presence, creating a vivid portrait of a bereft man clinging to the ...

Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014) Online Streaming

If we must endure yet another spring-summer cycle of comic book superheroes, this movie at least delivers the wham-bang goods (recycled though they may be).. A movie that is, in the best sense of the word, a Marvel.. "Captain America: The Winter Soldier" has the usual overlong running time, the half-hearted feints in the direction of human feeling and the obligatory action sequences that are big without being either exciting or particularly legible.. There's too much going on: the Marvel Univers...

As lousy as the movie is, I must speak up for its makers' valiant attempt to make something old look new and also old ... and new. It's a vexing problem for a system that relies on sequels, "franchises," "tentpoles," etc.. The only one really having a good time is Schwarzenegger, who grins like a Cheshire cyborg even when nothing's funny, least of all the impending destruction of humanity..

. If only director Chris Weitz had managed to tease out the real drama -- Bella's fear of aging -- instead of a tired one.. I am not ashamed to admit that I will be the first in line for Twilight part three.. Weitz's pacing is so limp you're going to need the electricity generated by a live audience to keep from yelling, "Hurry it up!". New Moon offers few of the juicy, go-for-broke romantic pleasures of its predecessor, and the movie is so badly shaped that it's hard not to blame Weitz as a dir...

Terabithia has buckets of gentle sincerity. Since there aren't any dumb jokes or hip visuals, it's easy to get caught up in the simple messages: Be good to your sister, don't be a bully, use your imagination in a pinch.. Everyone involved genuinely seems to believe in the power of imagination to enliven -- and enlighten -- the darkest realities, and that's a magic this film captures beautifully.. There's enough emotional truth in Bridge to Terabithia to make it a worthy addition to big-screen ch...

If the world is going to hell in any number of handbaskets -- as Judge so acutely demonstrates that it is -- you might as well hitch a ride in his.. Mike Judge's Idiocracy is absolutely a satire for its time. What Judge is less sure of here than in his previous, perfectly pitched live-action comedy Office Space, is how to build a complete movie around his key ideas.. Ow! My brain!. The movie is bracing for its bile but ultimately more frustrating than funny.. It's a low-boil affair from the Offi...

It's a bracing tonic for the bored palate of the mainstream moviegoer, and one of the most intriguing big-budget breakthrough films since Steven Spielberg made "Jaws.". This is exactly what big summer movies ought to aspire to: never short on dazzle, but unafraid to let us catch our breath once it's been taken away.. Forget about three years at Rada - these boys are the real deal.. Director Joseph Kosinski has a recipe for adventure that should delight gamers. Non-techies are on their own.. Dire...

Insurgent is not a very good movie, but it's better than it needs to be.. It's got all the ingredients - improbable romances, partial nudity, ridiculous escapes - that make it little more than big-sound and big-picture fodder for the Imax screens it will appear on throughout the country.. While the pale skin tones (bronzer is selectively applied) and haphazard mix of American and British accents is distracting, it barely scratches the surface of Exodus's ungainly artificiality.. This second inst...

Carrey finds his perfect role in Count Olaf.. I recommend this movie to everyone out there want to see an epic action movie that delivers to ever...

Remaking Get Smart for the big screen might have sounded like a bad idea, but the movie shows it to have been something else: a really bad idea.. Chipper, energetic and unimaginatively plotted re-do.. As a reworking of one of the great 1960s TV comedies, you'd think being funny would be its main goal. But you would be wrong. Very, very wrong.. You cannot expect a bunch of vacationing kids to remember, let alone revere, a cheeky little TV half hour that entertained the old folks almost a half cen...

This looks impressive, though, making use of highly imaginative, state-of-the-art 3-D effects while still evoking old-school Disney animation. Music perfectly fits with the movie, the story can't tear myself away from the screen for hours. Really GREAT movie!!. A masterpiec...

Overall this is a limp parade of recycled gags and gadgets: an action movie with no surprises and a comedy with nothing like enough laughs.. So bad on so many levels.. A little more unabashed silliness might have made Get Smart a better movie. As is it's a chuckly comfort-food film that you neither love nor hate, serviceable fare for a warm summer daze....

"Guardians of the Galaxy" has wit, energy and zaniness to spare. It will pop your corn and leave you hungry for more.. As directed by James Gunn, Guardians of the Galaxy never takes itself seriously and it's often a visual and musical treat. The Runaways' Cherry Bomb and David Bowie's Moonage Daydream? Yes, please.. Though based on a comics series launched in 1969, "Guardians" comes on with a hip, absurdist humor that feels thoroughly modern.. What sounds like a strained miscalculation turns out...

An unconventional coming-of-age story that's likely to appeal to the rebellious teen in all of us.. In its small, independent way, "The Kings of Summer" rules.. Starts out as a raunchy teen comedy, slips into nature-epic mode, then adds a romantic triangle and finally finds a comfort zone in family-sitcom land.. Every minute of this action packed movie is amazing. This is the single best movie I have ever seen. All of the actors do great jobs at their roles from the villains to the side characte...

X-Men (2000) Download Full

It's darker, more complex and far more substantive than anything in the Superman or Batman cinematic series.. The X-Men comic books have spawned a cottage industry of mutant characters, and the movie helps make sense of these legions while offering the established fan base something new to cheer.. X-Men plays like a so-so middle chapter of an epic series rather than a fitting kickoff.. Exciting mainly because anything can happen and does, the movie drags a bit as it approaches a climax set on to...

Jumper has so many loose ends that it almost cries out for a sequel. This, of course, is intentional. I would say the filmmakers are being a tad optimistic..

The disappointments and the inexplicable plot turns kept mounting until I finally surrendered and just admitted it: This was just a goodlooking clunker..

It's a work of profound ambition, and, in adapting it for the screen, the makers of The Chronicles of Narnia don't shy away from its demands.. In his daft, dizzy reinvention of a moribund franchise, Abrams has found a way to be referential without being reverential, to conjure nostalgia without being constrained by it.. What constant magic it works.. Even by the standards of its own predecessors, this Trek feels like it was made by a committee of logic-minded Vulcans (or franchise-protective stu...

RV has laughs spilling out of its overhead bins.. Not unbearably terrible, just thoroughly mediocre.. Call it the Robert Downey Jr. Meets Sherlock Holmes Effect.

Suffers from a convoluted plot and an anticlimactic resolution, but hits enough high notes along the way to be enjoyable..

This oafish epic about the End of Days -- as predicted by the Mayan calendar -- operates in a dead zone roughly equidistant between parody and idiocy.. The third outing for a herd of toys that should have stayed in their boxes.. As you might expect with director Roland Emmerich, the movie isn't a patch on the trailer..

Just wacky enough and gadget-driven enough to appeal to bored kids looking for fresh energies.. Spy Kids may have its faults, but, for adults, it's far from a Mission: Unwatchable.. As drama, After Earth offers no surprises; as action, it's rarely stimulating; as a parenting manual, it seems that Will has thrown Jaden into water that's a little too deep.. A fine, relatively non-violent example of pure family entertainment.. It's just a somewhat mundane coming-of-age story with a terribly miscast...

There is a whole lot of meanwhile in this crowded, lumbering film.. If it's sword-on-sword with arrows-in-the-air action you want, Robin Hood delivers in a big way.. We never even get to see Robin steal from the rich and give to the poor. That's because the film is a prequel in search of a sequel. With any luck, we won't get one.. The film is pretty, and there are a few solid moments every hour. But considered as a work of cinema, with paid professionals involved, it's an extremely lackluster st...

Superman, born in 1938, is still very much alive in 2006. The Man of Steel has so skillfully bent the bars of our imagination that he seems real to us. And in a sense, he is..

Those first two movies look like Seven Samurai next to The Expendables 3, a sad, bad, parade of uninspired cameos and listless violence.. It's the Walmart of feel-good family films: accessible, cheaply made, useful in a pinch and full of American flags..
