Movie reviews of Ben Kendrick

Offers a worthwhile dose of harmless fun and worthwhile heart. Review

The final chapter in their storyline also offers the most fun and excitement thus far... Review

Offers one of the richest and most interesting Bond adventures... Review

Fails to provide a shrewd balance of story and scares... Review

Enjoys a healthy ratio of accessible character drama and goofy gaming gags – resulting in an exceptionally entertaining, and heartfelt, animated adventure. Review

Most viewers will likely be left underwhelmed by cliche character interactions and a convoluted plot. Review

A step down for both audiences. Review

A smart and well-executed dark comedy full of over-the-top violence and intriguing rumination on human nature and the joy of killing. Review

The sequel is dominated by eye-rolling character moments, disjointed plot lines, and mostly underwhelming onscreen action. Review

Ultimately delivering an awkwardly proportioned and poorly stitched together movie experience. Review

Unrelenting in its exploration of troubled teenagers as well as counter-cultural angst... Review

A solid debut feature and one that will likely have viewers looking forward to the filmmaker’s next effort. Review

Offers an extremely enjoyable action ride and, for some, might even stand as one of Hollywood’s most entertaining comic book adaptations. Review

Style-over-substance in every possible definition of the concept. Review

Not all of The Words are unique but the way they come together should provide a stirring experience for anyone fluent in nuanced literary drama. Review

A pair of sharp performances as well as an intriguing core premise help elevate The Possession above standard exorcism offerings... Review

Succeeds in telling a riveting “true life” historical drama with plenty of entertaining and memorable characters... Review

A middle-of-the road rush that’s a bit short of “premium”. Review

Is by no means a bad film, it just, ironically, has trouble living up to the real world Jason Bourne “legacy.”... Review

There isn’t much room to build upon the rich world that’s introduced in the opening. Review

An over-dependence on lowbrow set-pieces paired with thin characters and story will likely leave many audiences members underwhelmed... Review

A number of tense set-ups and solid performances make Savages an interesting, albeit flawed, outing. Review

Delivers a satisfying emotional payoff... Review

An entertaining live-action comedy debut. Review
