MPAA Rating: "PG-13" (Violence, Profanity)
Genre: Thriller
Director: Christopher Landon
Cast: Meghann Fahy, Brandon Sklenar, Violett Beane, Jacob Robinson, Reed Diamond
Starts out with Hitchcockian flair and rides a dizzying wave of anxiety-based mystery until, like far too many underwritten thrillers, it falls apart.

Genre: Horror
Director: Thordur Palsson
Cast: Odessa Young, Joe Cole, Lewis Gribben, Siobhan Finneran, Francis Magee, Rory McCann
Although director Thordur Palsson succeeds in developing the setting and crafting an unnerving atmosphere, the screenplay fails in several critical areas.

MPAA Rating: "PG"
Genre: Comedy
Director: Frank Oz
Cast: Steve Martin, Michael Caine, Glenne Headly, Anton Rodgers, Ian McDiarmid, Ian McDiarmid
A comedy caper that relies more on the charm of its stars than the twistiness of its narrative, "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels" isn’t quite clever enough to justify the full 110-minute running length.

Genre: Action/Adventure
Director: Simon Kinberg
Cast: James McAvoy, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Evan Peters, Alexandra Shipp, Nicholas Hoult, Jennifer Lawrence, Tye Sheridan, Sophie Turner, Michael Fassbender, Jessica Chastain

MPAA Rating: "R" (Profanity, Sexual Content)

Cast: Keanu Reeves, Winona Ryder
Despite having two inherently likable actors, the characters are so disagreeable that it’s difficult to become sympathetic toward their whirlwind affair.

MPAA Rating: "NR" (Sexual Content, Nudity, Profanity)
Genre: Romance/Drama
Director: Miguel Arteta
Cast: Alia Shawkat, Laia Costa
Acting and chemistry aren’t enough and the material isn’t strong enough to captivate for the full 90 minutes the way it does during the first 30.

MPAA Rating: "R" (Profanity, Sexual Content, Brief Nudity)
Genre: Fantasy/Drama
Director: Alexander Payne
Cast: Matt Damon, Christoph Waltz, Hong Chau, Kristen Wiig, Rolf Lassgård, Udo Kier, Jason Sudeikis
The central character is as small figuratively as he is literally, and that limits the movie’s capacity to enthrall and engage.
