Contagion coughs up several scares and makes the fantastical feel unbearably believable.

Terrence Malick’s fifth motion picture The Tree of Life is a breathless cinematic miracle that’s unlike anything else I’ll see in all of 2011.

Predators is a lot of fun, and as matinee entertainment, the film does deliver most of the requisite goods.

Iron Man 2 (2010)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - May 7th, 2010 - Movie Reviews

Like the original Iron Man 2 is a movie I don’t particularly mind but don’t exactly love, either, and if I didn’t say that in so many words in regards to the first film not doing so as far as this sequel goes isn’t a mistake I plan on making twice.

Avatar (2009)

Even with its simplistic plot, Avatar is a stunning achievement in next-level cinematic bravado. Watch it on the biggest screen possible. Prepare to be blown away.

The Incredible Hulk (2008)

This new Hulk might have its moments and the character might still have his angry superpowers, but that doesn’t make the film anything close to incredible.

Iron Man (2008)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - May 1st, 2008 - Movie Reviews

Not to say that this inaugural adventure of Iron Man soars very high, but it does get off the ground, and as far as first chapters in what is sure to be an ongoing story is concerned, at least for right now that’s going to have to be enough.

Cloverfield (2008)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - January 18th, 2008 - Movie Reviews

For a blissfully exhausting, fast and furious 80 minutes, Reeves pays homage to 1950s giant monster classics while also imaginatively making the genre deviously his own.

Blade Runner: The Final Cut (1982/2007)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - October 26th, 2007 - Four-Star Corner Movie Reviews

Blade Runner is a brilliant amalgamation of sci-fi splendor and modern-day strum and drag, Scott melding it all into a poetic sensory symphony so spectacular it’s easy to see why the picture hasn’t lost a single bit of its timeless resonance.
