Jul 29, 2002Dream-Invading Boogey Man
The point where Robert Englund's Freddy went from a boogeyman into the equivalent of Wile E. Coyote, popping up like a malevolent jack-in-a-box to quip a one-liner and dispatch victims

May 23, 2003Virtual Reality
The first of The Matrix sequels inevitably disappointed on the massive build-up. The Wachowskis leave more questions than answers, while the new action scenes are jaw-dropping but feel boiler-plated on

Mission: Impossible III (2006)
Rating: ★★★½
Jun 21, 2006Spy/Action Film
For his third outing in the series, Tom Cruise made a smart bet on giving the reins to J.J. Abrams who turns in the most enjoyable entry to that point. One of the best moves is casting Philip Seymour Hoffman as the villain

Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer (2007)
Rating: ★★
Jun 25, 2007Comic-Book Superheroes
The 2005 Fantastic Four was an amiable entry among the Marvel Comics adaptations of the 2000s. This sequel substitutes lowbrow comedy and renders the great character of the Silver Surfer as a CGI cartoon

Apr 11, 2013Grim Survival in a Frozen Future
This creates a fascinatingly different future - a world of grim survivalism amid a new Ice Age in the aftermath of Global Warming. The look of the film is fantastic, only to fritter it on an action focus and Mad Max cliches

Rating: ★★★
Sep 7, 2014Possible Alien Abductees/Reality Bender
A film ostensibly about alien abductees that has rather pleasurably been construed as a series of wild head-spinning twists that are constantly pulling everything we think we know is going on from under the audience, even if it eventually provides more questions than it ever does answers

Rating: ★★★★
Jan 21, 2017Cryogenic Sleepers Awake Aboard a Space Voyage
The gratifying pleasure of a solid conceptually-driven science-fiction film – all based around the premise of "what if a cryogenic sleeper woke up halfway through a deep space voyage?" and the moral choices he must make. Strong, intelligent character-driven science-fiction and possibly the best designed film of the year

Rating: ★★
Dec 15, 2018Marvel Comics Miniature Superhero
Ant-Man was a lightweight but perfectly enjoyable entry in the horde of Marvel Comics adaptations. This sequel has amplified the comedy element, seemingly with the intent of being the joker among the MCU pack
