Movie reviews of Jeremy Lebens

A throwback slow-burn horror flick with a few solid scares, but mostly strong performances all-around.

A disappointingly dull sequel that's riddled with action movie cliches...

A visually-stunning documentary, with plenty of trademark Terrence Malick philosophy and meditation.

Even-handedly tackles greed and heroics in a disaster movie that's both emotional and large-scaled...

A load of mindless, old-fashioned Western fun. Antoine Fuqua shoots with an eye for gunfire, violence and charismatic performances from his leads.

A fascinating look at cyber-warfare and government conspiracies, but its cold approach and lifeless characters make it hard to truly engage...

One of the best-shot found footage films ever made, yet it struggles because of its thin script and uninspiring characters.

An engaging and well-shot horror film that teeters on a thin script and somewhat unlikable characters.

Phillips does a nice job structuring the comedy around wild scenarios at a break-neck speed.

An unflinching heist film, grounded in Western Texas realism and soaked with raw and uncertain performances by Chris Pine, Ben Foster and Jeff Bridges.

Stuffing the screen with raunchy R-rated humor that's on-the-nose racist, inappropriate and yet amusing to a degree.

Mostly an interesting mess, occasionally blending together talented actors with an offbeat story, but mostly just coming across as a missed opportunity.

The action is sometimes impressive, but Jason Bourne never quite shakes that been-there-done-that feel.

Will please avid Trekkies with its thought-out script and return to space exploration...

A frightening horror flick that works because of its simplistic plot...

Works because of its charismatic leads that share a tremendous amount of chemistry...

Harnessing spectacular performances from its star-studded cast, but failing to form a coherent story...

A lovable piece of 70s buddy cop cinema that's insanely funny and energetic.

Manages to top the original in every single way, wisely amping up the jokes, the story and the stakes...

The most satisfying Marvel mash-up yet...

Almost as cute, lovable and approachable as the titular kitten, thanks to Key and Peele's unique brand of humor that will surely entertain.

Packs some relevant social commentary into its usual comedic bits in a way that's entertaining...

An exciting piece of cinema and a technical masterpiece that seamlessly blends computer animation and voice-acting...

A painful cinematic experience, ruining its POV approach within 20 minutes and then settling on a story that makes no sense at all.
