The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey follows title character Bilbo Baggins, who is swept into an epic quest to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor, which was long ago conquered by the dragon Smaug. Approached out of the blue by the wizard Gandalf the Grey, Bilbo finds himself joining a company of thirteen dwarves led by the legendary warrior Thorin Oakenshield. Although their goal lies to the East and the wastelands of the Lonely Mountain, first they must escape the goblin tunnels, where Bilbo meets the creature that will change his life forever... Gollum. Here, alone with Gollum, on the shores of an underground lake, the unassuming Bilbo Baggins not only discovers depths ofguile and courage that surprise even him, he also gains possession of Gollum's "precious" ...a simple, gold ring that is tied to the fate of all Middle-earth in ways Bilbo cannot begin to know. -- (C) Warner Bros

Review For The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey

It frequently seems as though Jackson was less interested in making The Hobbit than in remaking his own fabulously successful Lord of the Rings series.
Christopher Orr-The Atlantic

My first thought in watching The Hobbit was: Do we really need this movie? It was my last thought, too.
Peter Rainer-Christian Science Monitor

To its own narrative detriment, "The Hobbit" works hard to lay the framework for what will follow. Certainly that's one way to set out on a trilogy, but it's surely not the best.
Lisa Kennedy-Denver Post

There's no denying the majesty in Peter Jackson's visuals but he's taken a relatively slim children's book and stretched it beyond the limits.
Richard Roeper-Richard Roeper.com

The repeated iterations of fight, flight and respite here get wearing. Especially perhaps because, with Jackson's fetish for detail, they take more time to watch on screen than to read about.
Liam Lacey-Globe and Mail

"The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" has finally arrived, not on wings of gossamer fancy but with a hairy-footed thud.
Ann Hornaday-Washington Post

An Unexpected Journey offers an unparalleled visual spectacle
Mary Clare Waireri-Fan The Fire

a drag-down, mildly diverting entertainment
Jay Antani-Cinema Writer

When the dwarves turn up mob-handed, kicking off a night of boisterous revelry, the laboured jests and jollity seem to go on forever. And the combination of dwarves, forced humour and familiar faces off the telly turn the occasion into bad panto.
Jason Best-Movie Talk

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey had me with the dulcet melancholy of displaced Dwarves, yearning to be home.
Blake Howard-2UE That Movie Show

Slower out of the gates than a three-legged donkey... but it gets better, and fans won't mind this slowburn beginning because, hey, it's Middle Earth.
Matt Neal-The Standard

It's the behaviour of the supposedly affable dwarves that makes this particular 'adventure' such a punishing experience.
Charlie Lyne-Ultra Culture

...a jaw-dropping visual carnival courtesy of Peter Jackson and company!
Michael A. Smith-MediaMikes

Very, very (very) slow in the early going, but Peter Jackson does get there (eventually).
Clint O'Connor-Cleveland Plain Dealer

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey is a story stretched too thin; dragged out by drudging slowness and obvious padding that its handful of thrilling action sequences can't improve.
Diva Velez-TheDivaReview.com

Should more than satisfactorily scratch the itch of those who have waited many long years to see Middle Earth back on screen.
Gabe Leibowitz-Film and Felt

A marvel of filmmaking wizardry and engrossing adventure storytelling, The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey marks another triumph by director Peter Jackson who once again takes J.R. Tolkien's words and brings them to life with skilful, passionate expertise.
Matthew Pejkovic-Matt's Movie Reviews

THE Hobbit occupies that same awkward spot in popular cinema as the Twilight movies in terms of balancing good cinema against fan-service.
Tim Martain-The Mercury

Here's hoping Jackson's love affair with technology shifts back to his real strength-good old-fashioned storytelling-and that he has the courage to edit down the film.
Richard Knight-Knight at the Movies

"Disappointing" isn't the same thing as "bad."
Rob Vaux-Mania.com

There is simply not enough story to justify the inordinate length...the enormous production effort is negated by [the] disastrous decision to shoot at 48 frames per second...This makes the entire enterprise look like the world's most expensive home video.
Jim Schembri-3AW

Lacking the interesting characters and intriguing subplots that made the earlier trilogy so engaging, The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey is too flat, too slow.
Matthew Toomey-ABC Radio Brisbane

A vibrant vision but a long slog.
Charles Koplinski-Illinois Times

Like the sad, bug-eyed Gollum, moviegoers may not have realized how much they missed movies like this onscreen in the past several years.
Phil Villarreal-OK! Magazine

The absolute highlight: the return of Andy Serkis, master of motion-capture performance, as the scary, disturbing, pathetic Gollum.
John Beifuss-Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)

A wild and visually stunning quest through a fantasy world all done with the noble spirit of courage and goodwill.
Cameron Williams-The Popcorn Junkie

The residents of the national park welcome a bright sunny morning, birds singing away merrily, animals running around with joy. A distant thunder breaks the silence and a closer look reveals the jungle being raided by man and machine destroying everything in its path. The night has a very tense air as all the animals gather around with fear in their heart, discussing their fate of losing their habitat to human beings. Everyone is convinced that it is futile to fight humans, and the only option is to leave and move to a safer home. The best way to get back their homes is to have a dialog with the humans, win their hearts and their own homes. Will the animals manage to keep their homes or move to another habitat?

Review For Delhi Safari

A painless, if only mildly inventive, animated comedy.
Gary Goldstein-Los Angeles Times

It shamelessly rips off much better animated movies. What kind of lesson is that for our young people?
Neil Genzlinger-New York Times

The film is without wit and, sadly, entirely forgettable.
Miriam Bale-New York Daily News

Blandly unremarkable.
Joe Leydon-Variety

Although its message is never subtle, Delhi Safari is fun enough to earn the right to preach.
Sherilyn Connelly-Village Voice

Out-of-date animation throws up a roadblock for this Indian animated 3D family film.
Lisa Tsering-Hollywood Reporter

The "Save the Environment" and "Share the World" themes of "Delhi Safari" will keep the adults involved in this nice story that is chock full of snappy, nature-friendly songs that will delight the kids.
Robin Clifford-Reeling Reviews

Bollywood numbers can't save derivative wild-animal tale.
Sandie Angulo Chen-Common Sense Media

Going to the zoo, watching Animal Planet or reading National Geographic will be more enlightening than this. (Full Content Review for Parents also available)
Jim Judy-Screen It!

...U.S. audiences, at least, are bound to find the animation here subpar for a theatrical release.
Laura Clifford-Reeling Reviews

Although set in India, the Bollywood-backed cartoon Delhi Safari speaks the universal language of middling kiddie entertainment.
Ethan Alter-Film Journal International

A much better way to strike home the same green message, while also having more fun, would be to just skip this movie and take your kids to a national park.

Watch Waiting For Lightning Movie Online No Survey


WAITING FOR LIGHTNING is the story of Danny Way, the skateboarder whose dream was to jump China's Great Wall on a skateboard. It's a film about how much abuse the body can sustain, how deep you have to dig to survive the challenges life presents, and how high and far dreams can fly. In his quest for greatness, Way continues to shape the very sport which helped save his own life. (c) Samuel Goldwyn PG-13

Review For Waiting For Lightning

Little more than an extended piece of lifestyle merchandising, a long montage for monitors in sporting-goods shops.
Mark Olsen-Los Angeles Times

The person we want most to hear from, Way himself, is largely missing. Go figure.
V.A. Musetto-New York Post

Only for the converted.
Michael O'Sullivan-Washington Post

It's enjoyable enough, but how much you like it will depend on how much you like skateboarding and extreme sports.
G. Allen Johnson-San Francisco Chronicle

IIf it's a god on a skateboard you want, a god on a skateboard you'll get in this hagiography ...
Jon Caramanica-New York Times

Colorful folks and cool stunts abound, but casual viewers may still utter a big "Why?"
Joe Neumaier-New York Daily News

While providing a fantastically visual diversion for aspiring skateboarders, this documentary lacks any personal insight into or commentary about legendary Danny Way.
Susan Granger-SSG Syndicate

It's quite astounding to see Way taking huge spills at some of his jumps only to get back on his board and try again.
Edward Douglas-ComingSoon.net

Another descendant of Stacy Peralta's influential Dogtown and Z-Boys, but more stylish and engaging than most of its less inquisitive, like-minded, hagiographic stunt spectaculars.
Brent Simon-Shockya.com

Director Jacob Rosenberg interviews Way and many of his friends, relations and peers, but he never digs too deeply or draws out of them much more than the clichéd "this is what he was born to do" talking points.
Sean Means-Salt Lake Tribune

The line between fearlessness and idiocy can be a thin one, especially in this sport, and the doc never gets too far under Way's skin.
Marc Mohan-Oregonian

Even without its central subject actually weighing in, this likeably scruffy documentary tells you a lot about the impetus behind shredding and being gnarly.
David Noh-Film Journal International

Waiting for Lightning is a true underdog story that will make anyone feel invincible, even for just 90 minutes.
Chase Whale-Twitch

Rosenberg's approach is heavy with archival footage and interviews, yet oddly features almost nothing from Way himself; his puzzling absence for most of the film turns the project into less of a biography than a one-note hagiography.
Nick Schager-Time Out New York

Rosenberg has succeeded in putting together a compelling story of a man, who through many defeats, has always risen to success.
Noah Lee-Film Threat

With Danny Way almost never weighing in directly, the film's attempts to portray his story as an inspirational tale of triumph over adversity scarcely registers.
Andrew Schenker-Slant Magazine

It's not many Americans whose names are engraved on the Great Wall of China. Daredevil Danny May certainly deserves the honor. Get stoked.

There's nothing Ernie loves more than an excellent adventure. Whether he's zooming around town on his rocket-powered skateboard or stealing an early peek at the cool new fossil exhibit at the Dinosaur Museum, Ernie never lets the strict rule of his mom, Sue (Jane Lynch) or his tag-along sister, Julia, keep him from stirring up some fun. While visiting his best friend Max's house, daredevil Ernie stumbles upon Max's dad's latest invention: a sleek, egg-shaped time machine. When Julia bursts in on the boys' discovery, the time machine whirs to life and closes its doors on the three arguing kids. It whisks them away to a lush jungle untouched by mankind, where a living, breathing T-Rex named Tyra (Melanie Griffith) mistakes them for her newly-hatched children, joining her family with hyperactive dinosaur son Dodger (Rob Schneider).

Review For Bad Kids Go to Hell

A slickly produced and brazenly clever piece of work that could attract a cult by sheer dint of its ingenious nastiness and self-aware snark.
Joe Leydon-Variety

With characters that come off more as collections of tics than people and a soundtrack stuck on earsplitting dance remix mode, Bad Kids plays like a straight-to-DVD bad dream.
Chris Vognar-Dallas Morning News

A cute cast enlivens this body-count picture set in a snooty high school, but once you get past the formulaic clichés, there's nothing there but more clichés.
Maitland McDonagh-Film Journal International

It's an edgy dark comedy with a few clever touches, but the film ... becomes a jumbled mess that lacks both sympathetic characters and suspense.
Todd Jorgenson-Cinemalogue.com

This mixture of thriller, horror and satire flaunts a smart-ass tone that proves deadening. As the body count starts rising, viewer interest quickly begins dropping.
Tim Grierson-Screen International

The movie suffers from several implausibilities, and as you can probably tell, it isn't high art. But horror movies usually tap into our secret fears and desires, and Bad Kids Go to Hell does so quite well.
Charles Ealy-Austin American-Statesman

The real mystery of BKGTH isn't who's doing the killing, but where the passion went in this independently produced screenplay-turned-comic-book-turned-movie.
Leah Churner-Austin Chronicle

The movie isn't scary enough for horror fans, gruesome enough for the slasher crowd or campy enough to be funny, so it falls into something of a cinematic purgatory.
Cary Darling-Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com

The film's unlikely combination of didacticism and sexy teen slaughter signals a booming trend: the Occupy horror flick.
James Spillane-Slant Magazine

Review For Deadfall

Despite a super-dark noir plot and respectable cast, "Deadfall" is a thriller that never quite delivers on its promise.
Walter V. Addiego-San Francisco Chronicle

Deadfall is fast and fatalistic ...
Steven Rea-Philadelphia Inquirer

This is the sort of movie best encountered accidentally and for free, caught on basic cable late at night.
Stephen Whitty-Newark Star-Ledger

There's nothing you haven't seen before - and better - in "Deadfall," which would seem to appeal mostly to fans of snowmobile chases.
Lou Lumenick-New York Post

Dean and Ruzowitzky want both inexorably tightening plot and keen psychology here, and they can't always have it both ways.
Kate Taylor-Globe and Mail

A genre characterized by often grisly violence, high style and a distinctly nihilistic outlook.
Michael O'Sullivan-Washington Post

What the screenplay lacks, director Ruzowitzky paints in, with bold, elemental strokes on the dirty-snow canvas.
Kelly Vance-East Bay Express

The film does manage some unintentional humor through its assortment of oddball accents, quirky characters, romantic silliness and overwrought action sequences.
Todd Jorgenson-Cinemalogue.com

Oedipal crises abound in this sleek but empty slice of snow-driven neo-noir
James Kendrick-Q Network Film Desk

Perhaps the best thing about "Deadfall" is the lifelike messiness of its ending. A couple of the characters have a lot of explaining to do, and this is one case where a sequel might be in order.
Calvin Wilson-St. Louis Post-Dispatch

It's sort of like "Fargo," only with a higher body count and without the wood chipper.
Soren Anderson-Seattle Times

This could be a film that will suck you in if it's on your tv on a lazy Saturday afternoon, but I have U-verse. I'm sure something better will be on one of those other channels.
Kristian Harloff-Schmoes Know

"Deadfall" ends up being little more a really good Lifetime Movie of the Week.
Mark Ellis-Schmoes Know

More than the Thanksgiving goose gets cooked in this less-than-thrilling crime caper.
Susan Granger-SSG Syndicate

Deadfall feels like a lot of different movies including Fargo, at times. But it's cheaper and less interested in making us care for the characters and their plight.
Jonathan W. Hickman-Daily Film Fix

A rare modern genre piece that doesn't shy away from being impossibly bleak and downbeat.
Robert Levin-amNewYork

Deadfall has most of the elements of a good noir: sex, love, doom, death. But about halfway in you can tell that the film itself is doomed.

In June 1939, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt (Bill Murray) and his wife Eleanor (Olivia Williams) host the King and Queen of England (Samuel West and Olivia Colman) for a weekend at the Roosevelt home at Hyde Park on Hudson, in upstate New York - the first-ever visit of a reigning English monarch to America. With Britain facing imminent war with Germany, the Royals are desperately looking to FDR for support. But international affairs must be juggled with the complexities of FDR's domestic establishment, as wife, mother, and mistresses all conspire to make the royal weekend an unforgettable one. -- (C) Focus

Review For Hyde Park on Hudson

A languid, tedious effort that never bothers to get to the heart of its characters, the film is a shallow reading of a significant time told mostly from the viewpoint of a lifeless character.
Connie Ogle-Miami Herald

It's never a bad movie, but it can't quite gel into a good one either.
Tom Long-Detroit News

Hyde Park on the Hudson' is a forgettable historical footnote.
Richard Roeper-Richard Roeper.com

The movie hinges on Murray's turn as FDR, and frankly, he comes up wanting. He looks and sounds nothing like the man, and barely makes an effort to rectify that.
Roger Moore-McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Essentially, Hyde Park on Hudson is a Shakespearean revel.
Rick Groen-Globe and Mail

Murray's spot-on portrayal of a man juggling myriad pressures and demands, from petty to momentous, marks one of the film's greatest strengths.
Ann Hornaday-Washington Post

Ultimately, it's just a pleasant little movie where the dramatic highlight is whether or not King George VI will bring himself to eat a hot dog.
Ken Hanke-Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)

Bill Murray proves a sound choice as the president who quietly battled polio. So too does Samuel West, as the stammering King George VI.
Ed Gibbs-The National

Whether it bears any resemblance to what actually happened is almost academic in a film that takes a precious moment in time and transforms it into a witty, civilised country house drama.
Allan Hunter-The List

Like the equally ludicrous Hitchcock, Hyde Park on Hudson is a character assassination posing as a movie.
Matt Brunson-Creative Loafing

Bill Murray is rarely more than serviceable as FDR in a film that is built around a romance more icky than sweet.
Mike Scott-Times-Picayune

The movie is most alive when Bill Murray's Roosevelt and Samuel West's King George VI retreat from the crowd and talk man to man.
John Wirt-Advocate (Baton Rouge, LA)

This 30's-set country house period drama will prove too dull for some (imagine Downtown Abbey without the soapy antics), but it works as a showcase for Murray to demonstrate some impressive range.
Stephen Carty-Flix Capacitor

FDR Is Happy
Diana Saenger-ReviewExpress.com

I enjoyed the movie for what it is, though I wish it had a better sense of itself.
Christopher Lloyd-Sarasota Herald-Tribune

The film bounces jauntily along, it's never less than handsome to look at, and the actors all do fine jobs.
Lawrence Toppman-Charlotte Observer

'The Day the King Ate a Hot Dog' might be a more informative title for this wispy historical trifle...
John Beifuss-Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)

Splendidly splendid. Oscars all around: Murray, Linney, et al.
Clint O'Connor-Cleveland Plain Dealer

The film misses a choice opportunity to build a central story around its secondary one.
Jon Niccum-Kansas City Star

It's a nearly impossibly tall order, but Murray makes it work with an ease that results in the movie-award year's second-best performance as a U.S. president.
Chris Foran-Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

None of it is quite ridiculous enough to qualify as camp, nor weighty enough to qualify as insightful drama.
Josh Bell-Las Vegas Weekly

So devoid of any spark that it feels like watching someone's boring vacation videos.
Jeffrey Lyles-Lyles' Movie Files

...Hyde Park on Hudson would've fared a whole lot better had it focused entirely on Roosevelt and the King's appealing exploits.
David Nusair-Reel Film Reviews

Bill Murray tries mightily to slide into the role of a great man, but it's not a comfortable fit.
Corey Hall-Metro Times (Detroit, MI)

Murray disappears into his role as FDR, blending Lothario charm with professorial cool.
Matthew Odam-Austin American-Statesman
