Movie reviews of Hope Madden

Unfortunately, Ritchie buries every stylistic choice he makes under charmless and pace-deadening CGI. Review

A frustrating way to spend an evening, but not a waste of time. Review

But when a rehash serves up this much wit, eye candy and escapist fun, you know what they say… Review

Plot holes, missed opportunities and a toothless approach to conflict leave you wondering whether this could have been a stronger film. Review

There’s an awful lot going for this gritty, soft-spoken new image of a teenage beast. Review

The movie sucks. Review

Will hook you immediately and change the way you think of mermaids. Review

There is a barely controlled, very funny, incredibly bloody chaos afoot here, and it is a wild and entertaining sight to behold. Review

For a lonesome comment on modern times – or for proof that Kristin Stewart can actually act – it’s not bad. Review

Presents an intriguing dilemma, populates its story with thoughtful, almost realistic characters, and refuses to condescend to its audience or its characters. Review

It’s a thin plot requiring the ability to suspend disbelief, but it also announces a very fresh voice in horror. Review

Herzog cannot tell this woman’s wildly unconventional story without framing her in the most conventional way possible. Review

Here all take on a sly, macabre humor that’s both refreshing and unsettling. Review

Perkins is also a master at generating tension, a kind built on unsure footing. Review

The story is far too complicated, and the dazzling array of bizarre ornamentation only further confounds viewers. Review

Expect a loose confection of a plot, as Elaine molds herself into the ideal sex toy, winning and then tiring of her trophies. Review

Like its leads, the film is blandly appealing but seriously in need of something bolder to hold your attention. Review

A tight little rocker. The lyrics are familiar, but the riffs still kick ass. Review

Theroux’s affable persistence and comedic intelligence combine with his empathetic insights to offer enough difference that his look is worth the time. Review

The biggest surprise is the utter absence of surprises. Review

Though the crossing storylines don’t always work, the characters that populate this harsh but lovely environment pique your interest... Review

Offers a lot of easily won wisdom and quick solutions. What the point is, I couldn’t tell you. Review

As an opportunity for Hugh Jackman to put his most iconic character to bed, it’s sometimes amazing. Review

While far from perfect, A United Kingdom gives you reason to applaud, to feel good, and to hope. Review
