I am full of admiration for the superb pacing, the tactful understatement of the location shooting, the sharp feel of the city. Full Review

The spectacle is entertaining, up to a point, but even the digital wizardry wears thin, and Dark Phoenix turns into a standard-brand miasma of explosions, collisions and swirling force fields. Full Review

Rating: 2/5 -- Carries the unfortunate burden of echoing other, better films. Full Review

Unfortunately, failed comedy and vigorous suspense are handcuffed together for the entire trip. Full Review

Rating: B- -- Although one of Sidney Lumet's minor efforts, "The Anderson Tapes" functions as a cool retro caper movie full of nostalgic details. The film's car chase climax is no joke. Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- Despite its heavy undertones of satire, irony and social comment, this entertaining film is basically a caper thriller. Full Review

A habitual criminal, looking for a big score immediately upon leaving prison, goes to the syndicate seeking funds for a massive robbery.
