Movie reviews of The Massie Twins

An engaging, family-friendly, fantasy adventure. Review

Incredibly derivative and practically unwatchable. Review

Right from the start, the synchronized movements and singing are impressive and memorable... Review

These musical numbers intrude so regularly that the plot begins to stall for lengthy spans of time... Review

An early example of high-octane, blockbuster-like visuals... Review

Its notes on history are bound to be lost when its minimal entertainment value makes for an ultimately forgettable product. Review

Has a basis in history, but the story has been fictionized for the sake of entertainment. Review

An absolutely winning adventure. Review

Revenge, particularly when it seems deserved by monstrous scoundrels, is an easy source of entertainment. Review

The facts (and historical implications) may be fascinating, but the suspense is flat and the movie ultimately dozy. Review

Despite the irritating editing choices, it’s difficult to dismiss the design of the characters – and the exceptional performances by Chastain and Elba. Review

An amusing yet brief survey of adolescence – a mere episode in a potentially grander existence. Review

There’s a slowness to the picture as well, as if extra minutes will somehow make the chemistry or love story more realistic... Review

Observes, without a discernible voice or bent or judgment, distinct people and places. Review

Back and forth banter is largely amusing, even if the script insists upon containing wholesome themes... Review

Its complexity and originality is fascinating and epitomic science-fiction. Review

Emotionally bereaving picture, which is hurt further by the excessive number of stories... Review

None of the characters are all that interesting and the script seems more appropriate for a television episode... Review

Quite funny, in a repulsive sort of way. Review

One of Jackie Chan’s most entertaining projects. Review

Becomes one of the best of the lesser-known hijack movies. Review

The execution could use some refining, but the comedy elements are surely sound. Review

The narrative is simple and innocent, generally brushing aside the darker dramas playing out in the background. Review

In the end, a few lessons and observations about life and death and love are imparted, though they’re blatant, uninspiring, and ineffective. Review
