Star Trek Into Darkness
Yes. Following in the vein of its predecessor, this movie is friggin’ awesome.

The Great Gatsby
No. So this movie beats on, visual effects against the senses, borne back ceaselessly into apathy.
Iron Man 3
No. You can create all the suits of armor you want, but you can’t computer generate my interest in a lousy script.
Pain & Gain
No. Well… they’re half right.
Oblivion
No. On the surface this is one of the most beautiful movies I’ve ever seen; below the surface it’s nothing more than an amalgamation of other, better science fiction flicks.
The Place Beyond The Pines
Yes. The first portion of this film (particularly Gosling’s performance) is so strong that it gets the nod, but it does overstay its welcome by the third act.
G.I. Joe: Retaliation
No. This is a sequel to a movie based on a line of toys… that should tell you everything you need to know.
Evil Dead
Yes. The first half plays like an outdoors Exorcist, but the second half… well, that’s something else entirely.
Olympus Has Fallen
No. As much as I love the idea of Die Hard in the White House (seriously: I LOVE it) this movie does not quite make the grade.
The Call
No. There’s something refreshing about watching the good guys do their best to serve and protect… unfortunately the third act throws all that away and turns this into a textbook abduction movie.
Identity Thief
No. Keep the identity, give me my money back.
A Good Day to Die Hard
No. The original Die Hard is often cited as the greatest action movie ever made… sooo you should probably just watch that.
