Battleship
Stars Taylor Kitsch, Brooklyn Decker
Directed by Peter Berg




GO: Big loud summer fun! Why all the naysayers? Even Rihanna does OK. Who cares if it’s ridiculous. Great action, decent aliens.

The Dictator
Stars Sacha Baron Cohen, Anna Faris
Directed by Larry Charles




NO: Ridiculously bad. After success of Borat two strikes for Cohen. What is Ben Kingsley doing in this mess? Only Anna Faris fares well.

Girl In Progress
Stars Eva Mendes, Cierra Ramirez
Directed by Patricia Riggen




NO: Attractive leads Mendes/Ramirez sunk by self-conscious script device – daughter using coming-of-age tale to fashion her own life.

Safe
Stars Jason Statham
Directed by Boaz Yakin




GO: Statham wears well, even if he’s not The Transporter. Protecting cute kid provides emotional anchor. Endless action, high body count.

The Five Year Engagement
Stars Jason Segel, Emily Blunt
Directed by Nicholas Stoller




NO: Jason Segel finally strikes out. Entitled to one after so many great efforts. Alison Brie steals show in support.

The Hunger Games
Stars Jennifer Lawrence
Directed by Gary Ross




GO: Competent if uninspired retelling of book. Jennifer Lawrence performance recalls her earlier effort in Winter’s Bone.

Think Like A Man
Stars Kevin Hart, Romany Malco
Directed by Tim Story




GO: Kevin Hart brings the funny. Rest of cast solid in relationships & love, especially Romany Malco & Meagan Good. Sweet script, fun ride.

Jeff, Who Lives At Home
Stars Jason Segel
Directed by Mark Duplass, Jay Duplass




GO: Bravo filmmaking on small scale. Slacker believes signs will lead to destiny, follows some, signs or not, impacting family, others.

The Lucky One
Stars Zac Efron, Taylor Schilling
Directed by Scott Hicks




GO: Beautifully shot, quiet but tight pace. Taylor Schilling lights up the screen, outshining Zac Efron’s dull monotone performance.

Friends With Kids
Stars Jennifer Westfeldt, Adam Scott
Directed by Jennifer Westfeldt




NO: Strong acting, but ultimately tiring & predictable as best friends have baby without love/marriage, then, guess what, fall in love!
