Franchise has progressed from looking like an algorithmic screensaver combined with metal-gnashing sounds, but I don’t think I’ll ever be sold. Perhaps my opinion would differ if I was from the proper generation, thought the director wasn’t awful, or could believe Shia LaBeouf as an action hero.

Funny, clever comedy with the proper amount of science-fiction reference. Probably my favorite Pegg vehicle to date, including Shaun of the Dead.

A very interesting, emotional story involving a bastion of rationality.

Self-absorbed.

Raw, simple prison drama.

Good science fiction, well-acted.

I am a sucker for disaster movies, and Soderbergh pitches this one right over the plate.

Good-looking animated western homage. Probably best appreciated by people that watch movies professionally.

The original film did not need to be remade, but that said, this version is witty and well-done.

The Dude dons an indeterminate accent and fights witches and monsters with mediocre CGI. He also shares the screen with a couple of wooden young leads.
