Ted 2Ted 2 (2015)
2 stars (Good Try) Even if you accept that teddy bears can talk it would make it more watchable if there was a decent script.
Shakespeare in LoveShakespeare in Love (1998)Aro Favourite
3 stars (Good Enough) 10/10 for costumes. Script is witty but the screenplay weakens towards the end. Affleck probably cast for commercial reasons & is out of place & depth among a dream supporting cast headed by Rush.The film is at its weakest when the two leads are alone.
In the Heart of the SeaIn the Heart of the Sea (2015)
2 stars (Good Try) The special effects work well for the first hour but the film dies after that when the humans take over.
Away All BoatsAway All Boats (1956)
2 stars (Good Try) Well made and could be used as a recruitment tool. Gets a bit sidetracked with some unnecessary flash backs. Richard Boone and Chas. McGraw have small parts.
Twilight Zone - The MovieTwilight Zone - The Movie (1983)
2 stars (Good Try) The final episode is the best in which Lithgow needs to be in top form.
Dear JohnDear John (2010)
2 stars (Good Try) There is a nicely photographed rainy day about 20 minutes into the film.
Minority ReportMinority Report (2002)Aro Favourite
2 stars (Good Try) The effects are what you would expect from a good special effects director.The SF plot encourages you to read the author but the overlong film loses interest in the SF after an hour & it becomes a boring actioner in which Cruise seems more comfortable.
Love the Coopers Love the Coopers (Let It Snow) (2015)
2 stars (Good Try) I didn't get too excited about the screenplay but I did about the casting of Keaton, Goodman (great together and are responsible for the film's best bits), Arkin and Tomei.
Butterfly Effect, TheButterfly Effect, The (2003)
2 stars (Good Try) The plot idea is fine but I kept running hot and cold on this during the viewing – at the end decided it was too smart for its own good with too many flashbacks – Kutcher's performance didn't help decide matters as he also performed hot and cold.
Mission: Impossible 2Mission: Impossible 2 (2000)
2 stars (Good Try) Great opening shot of a rock climber & scenery until the camera focus's on Cruises nostrils & sets the tone for the rest of the film. As is the norm for this kind of film the only interesting character is the villain and Scott is fine in this regard.
