Hit & Run (2012)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - August 24th, 2012 - Movie Reviews

Hit & Run is relatively well acted and shows a great deal of promise, just not enough of the latter for the former to matter near as much as it otherwise would.

Cosmopolis (2012)

Cosmopolis may be a mess, but it’s still something of a glorious one, and for those willing to take the ride they’ll have ridden shotgun in a journey they’re unlikely to forget anytime soon.

ParaNorman (2012)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - August 17th, 2012 - Movie Reviews

The moral of this story is universal and, especially in a heated election season filled with double-speak, specious innuendo and outright lies, everyone everywhere should listen to.

The Watch (2012)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - July 27th, 2012 - Movie Reviews

While the movie does have its share of laughs, and even though there are some inspired moments, overall The Watch is a shockingly middling affair that oftentimes feels haphazardly slapped together.

Ice Age: Continental Drift (2012)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - July 13th, 2012 - Movie Reviews

Ice Age: Continental Drift isn’t very good, and if a fifth adventure ever ends up being made here’s hoping it follows in the footsteps of the other odd-numbered entries in the series and brings back the good-natured fun this fourth effort lacks.

Seeking a Friend for the End of the World is a movie I’m going to be treasuring for a very long time.

To Rome with Love (2012)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - July 4th, 2012 - Movie Reviews

To Rome with Love is overstuffed yet also oddly vague, and while the better bits are wonderful the lesser ones irritated me so much they made the final product a disappointing afterthought in the career of a justifiably lauded filmmaker we all know is capable of better.

Ted (2012)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - June 29th, 2012 - Movie Reviews

As funny as Ted can be the magic of the early moments quickly dissipates, making this one-joke comedy borderline unbearable.

Grassroots (2012)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - June 22nd, 2012 - Film Festivals Movie Reviews

Grassroots shows that, win or lose, hope still exists, and that the tiniest of voices can still be heard if they have the guts to stand before a microphone and have the courage to make their opinions public.
