Orphan
Crazy but Good!
by rtevansNew Member
Pros: Great Acting, Great Plot, Keeps you guessing.
Cons: None really, just cussing and love scene. But you find that in every movie!
If you like big surprises and you are very suspenseful this is the movie for you! The Orphan will leave you feeling like you didn't know what was happening at all! Little hints lead up to the truth but will you catch them? Probably not, ...

The Woman in Black
Bloody Mary, Bloody Mar-- Wrong Legend
by theycallmepNew Member
Pros: Builds suspense nicely, decent folklore type plot, entertaining
Cons: Doesn't leave you scared afterwards, barely any replay value after viewing it once
*contains major spoilers* When so many modern horror movies either suffer from over-using the "jump scare" technique, are third rate shameful remakes, suffer from a weak plot, or some combination of the above, The Woman In Black ...

Sanctum
Sanctum - Voted most likely to induce fear and panic in a movie theater!
by ladyconsumer
Pros: Interesting story, well-defined characters.
Cons: Some of those well-defined characters were annoying.
Sanctum is not for the faint of heart.  Nor is it for the action-junkie or the sci-fi lover.  There are no monsters, aliens, or bacteria.  No guns.  No car-chases.  No, the enemy in Sanctum is nature, herself.  ...

The Avengers (2012)
Avengers delivers exhilerating better than expected Super-hero mash up. NO SPOILERS
by ChrisJarmick
Pros: briskly paced, huge production values, good action sequences, clever moments
Cons: too few to mention
The Avengers (2012) is a build your own Sundae sort of confection that delivers what fans expected with some extra treats.  I don’t mean huge surprises or twists, but rather plenty of cleverly conceived moments and some very witty and ...

The Avengers (2012)
Suspension of Disbelief Was Easy
by thewasp
Pros: Great effects and characterizations
Cons: Relies very much on knowledge of previous installments
I enjoyed watching "The Avengers" most of all because the characters were compelling.  A close second was the quality of the action set-pieces.  Let me say a few words about the plot:  Loki (Tom Hiddleston), whom we first met in last ...

by pmills1210
Pros: Cohen, Faris, Kingsley, many funny moments
Cons: Some questionable ways to get laughs; definitely not for all tastes

Battleship
Battleship - It's not another Transformers movie
by phungus
Pros: Good action sequences and special effects
Cons: It's all kind of silly
Battleship turned out to be a much better movie than I expected. It’s based on a board game and looks like a knock-off of the Transformers series, so that is probably part of the reason why audiences haven’t exactly flocked to ...

Drive
Nicolas Winding Refn and Ryan Gosling Put the Pedal to the Metal in Drive
by Mike_Bracken
Pros: Excellent direction, Gosling is brilliant.
Cons: Carey Mulligan's character isn't particularly well-developed.
Nicolas Winding Refn has had quite the run as of late. The Danish filmmaker has catapulted from making films in his homeland (the excellent Pusher trilogy) to mainstream success with the release of his latest offering – the ...

Pros: Pretty good visual fx, good action.
Cons: Terrible story, horrible acting, awful script, etc...
I know, I know....."a good bad movie"? What? Believe it or not, there really is such a thing. It's a movie that, for all intents and purposes, is really horrible in practically every way, yet still has something about it that you can't help but ...

Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close
Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close: Precocious Overload
by swmckewon
Pros: Skillful editing. Good pacing.
Cons: Unbelievable characters. Treacly plot.
Skillfully directed by Stephen Daldry and equally well-edited by Claire Simpson, “Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close” is about as good as it can be considering you spend two hours with two of the more annoying characters in recent memory. ...

Pros: The execution of the material.
Cons: The material.
Brilliantly directed and cinematographically ingenious, Vanishing on 7th Street could have benefited from a better final-third and not so many contrivances, but it’s still impressive enough to recommend. It’s director Brad ...

Men in Black III
"I Told You to Trust the Pie."
by carstairs38
Pros: Will Smith, Josh Brolin, just plain fun
Cons: Tommy Lee Jones isn't in much
Try as I might, when I start hearing rumors of a trouble production for a film, I start to worry it won't be any good.  And since I was hoping that Men in Black 3 would be good, I was really worried.  But I decided to see it anyway.  I'm ...

Pros: The pros for this movie would be that it shows you realisam
Cons: the cons would be that its very depressing and it can leave you depressed.
Beautiful boy is not a happy go lucky movie to watch. Its very realistic and hard to watch at some parts. As the story begins, a college freshman named Sammy is calling his parents at home to check in. Mom Kate (Maria Bello) is a concerned parent, ...

The Avengers (2012)
The Avengers Usher in the Summer Movie Season
by bilbopooh
Pros: great cast, lots of action, witty dialogue
Cons: some action sequences are overlong, took a while to really grab me
For the past few years, I have reveled in the geekiness of The Big Bang Theory, which includes plentiful references to Marvel Comics. Aside from the Spider-Man movies, however, my own familiarity with these superheroes has been limited enough that ...

Monsieur Lazhar was among the five finalists for the 2012 Academy Awards for Best Foreign Language Film.  Based on the subject matter, I went into this film with high expectations.  While I was not totally disappointed, this film fell ...

For me, Antichrist is hard to review. I’m unsure whether I want to recommend it, or whether I should just pretend I haven’t actually seen it so that people don’t seriously question my taste in movies. But seeing as I just wrote that ...

Pros: Great special effects
Cons: A number of plot holes
I figured I would be about even watching "The Avengers" (which I still haven't gotten around to seeing) or "Battleship" since they both feature an alien invasion.  The protagonists in "Battleship" are somewhat more believable, but that isn't the ...

Scarlett Johansson is smoking hot. I just wanted to get that out of the way, after having just seeing her in "The Avengers." This is of course based on Marvel comic book characters, and is of course going to be among the biggest blockbusters of ...
