Logan (20th Century Fox, R)
I’d say that Logan is a different kind of an X-Men movie, except that I’m not sure it’s an X-Men movie at all.
R)
Wiener-Dog (IFC Films, R)
In a string of assumedly significant metaphors, Solondz’ latest film has its shining moments, but ultimately falls short of leaving any resonating message about purpose, meaning, or the hardship we call life.
Your Sister’s Sister (IFC Films, R)
Hopefully you won’t be bothered by why everyone in the world of movies owns a nice, solitary cabin on an island that can be used as needed, regardless their income.
Coriolanus (The Weinstein Company, R)
This is a film that will please not only those who already love Shakespeare, but also fans of action movies.
Safe House (Universal Pictures, R)
The style of this film is 100% lifted from the later Bourne movies.
Albert Nobbs (Roadside Attractions, R)
When she shares the screen with McTeer, Close simply disappears into the woodwork, which may be appropriate for her character but doesn’t give the audience much to appreciate.
Contraband (Universal Pictures, R)
Giovanni Ribisi, the most colorful of the bunch, is at his over-the-top best and is fun to watch every second.
The Descendants (Fox Searchlight Pictures, R)
The cast is uniformly good. Just about everything in the movie is good. Not much is great.
The Skin I Live In (Sony Pictures Classics, R)
From the moment this film began, I was completely entranced. Everything about it was clicking perfectly.
Immortals (Relativity Media, R)
The worst thing about this movie is that it is a campy story which they treat with the utmost seriousness.
