“Side Effects” is well-acted, elegantly shot, and riveting through its first hour, but after one or two too many plot twists in the film’s later acts, the whole thing feels entirely too clever for its own good.
Relentlessly violent, gory, and profane, “Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters” has just one other thing going for it aside from its comely cast: it’s short.
All you Russell Crowe fans out there, breathe a sigh of relief. There’s not a single scene in his latest outing, “Broken City”, where he sings anything, and that’s good.
“Gangster Squad” has lots to offer in terms of eye candy, and that’s about it, so if you like your gangster films high on style and short on substance or character depth, you’re in for a treat.
