Jenkins still fuels his small, yet piercing exposition, with a cemented conviction that fortifies the serene rage and manages to instill a convincing dose of sympathy for the periled players in Miami's hidden haven of a hellhole. | 4/4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | false | 6 | 7 | 2 | 2,309 |
Mother's Day | The Critical Movie Critics | Frank Ochieng | With previous dreck such as 2010's "Valentine's Day" and 2011's "New Year's Eve" one can imagine what other arbitrary calendar concoction that Marshall can lazily muster up to showcase as a companion piece to his string of hapless holiday treats? | 1.5/4 | 4 | 1.5 | 4 | false | 1 | 7 | 2 | 2,309 |
My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 | The Critical Movie Critics | Frank Ochieng | Again, feel free to grab another baklava, but the aftertaste of this wedding calls for an immediate annulment from this bouncy, bickering bunch. | 2/4 | 4 | 2 | 4 | false | 2 | 7 | 2 | 2,309 |
Nobody's Fool | The Critical Movie Critics | Frank Ochieng | Unfocused and a total mess in narrative sensibilities. Perry and Haddish again show audiences that we're the fool for lining up at the box office for this trippin' tripe. | 1/4 | 4 | 1 | 4 | false | 0 | 7 | 2 | 2,309 |
Oasis: Supersonic | The Critical Movie Critics | Frank Ochieng | Feisty and unapologetic, Oasis: Supersonic impishly encourages a radical ride on Oasis' symbolically aforementioned "Champagne Supernova."

People's Republic of Desire | The Critical Movie Critics | Frank Ochieng | ...tellingly spry and insightful. Slickly produced, energetic and intrinsically revealing...an intriguing documentary about online entertainment in China. | 3/4 | 4 | 3 | 4 | false | 4 | 7 | 2 | 2,309 |
Railroad Tigers | The Critical Movie Critics | Frank Ochieng | These "Tigers" claw their way into a frivolous lather but whether or not Chan's latest spectacle deserves a boarding pass to enjoy the same blueprint thrills . . . well, hey . . . would you rather see the sequel "Skiptrace 2"? I rest my case . . . | 2.5/4 | 4 | 2.5 | 4 | false | 3 | 7 | 2 | 2,309 |
Sing Street | The Critical Movie Critics | Frank Ochieng | The crafty and colorful Sing Street could be perceived as the junior-sized extension of the aforementioned "Once" where lyrics and love methodically come together in unison. | 3.5/4 | 4 | 3.5 | 4 | false | 5 | 7 | 2 | 2,309 |
