Foxcatcher
Gripping, chilling and deeply sad
Movies
KANO: 1931 Umi no Mukō no Kōshien
Over-sentimental, obvious and just too long
Begin Again
A charming film with good music and appealing characters
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
A sloppily-written waste of pixels lacking genuine fun
The Face of Love
An odd movie that makes a maudlin story work
20,000 Days on Earth
An innovative look at a fictitious “day in the life” of Nick Cave
Mortdecai
A Johnny Depp vanity action/mystery/caper flick
Draft Day
Simultaneously convoluted and simplistic drama
Elsa & Fred
Cute in spots but contains no surprises
Exodus: Gods and Kings
Soulless and more than a little dull
Wild Card
Statham fan-pleasing, forgettable pseudo-noir
Sayonara Kabukicho
An ensemble drama featuring ex-AKB48 Atsuko Maeda
