Movie reviews of The Massie Twins

A fascinating exploration of man’s infatuation with (or inability to escape from) violence... Review

The documentary isn’t assembled with the steadiest of hands, but it’s difficult not to be enthralled... Review

The characters and the scenarios are just repetitive enough to wonder why this second chapter exists at all. Review

Loses much of its momentum and forcefulness. Review

The writing focuses too heavily on typical Orwellian interactions... Review

The plot isn’t terribly creative, but it effectively sets up some delightfully gory ambushes and boo moments... Review

The focus remains on playful and mischievous skirmishes rather than highly creative showdowns, which is always a shame in a Jackie Chan production. Review

The story serves only to ferry the characters from one show-stopping performance to the next. Review

Boasts some exceptional acting... Review

A movie that blends historical elements with fictional embellishments so creatively... Review

Some of the humor doesn’t quite fit, but the film does craft a fitting atmosphere... Review

A nicely contrasting soundtrack, intense action sequences, excellent sets and photography, and believable characters contribute to a poignant thriller... Review

At times the film devolves into a mindless actioner, which is perhaps where it is most comfortable. Review

There’s also drama, romance, grandiose sets and settings, and an extra villain for good measure... Review

The iconic, poetic parting shot, contribute to the enduring power of this striking epic. Review

An exercise in sustained agitation. Review

May not be Hitchcock’s most powerful work, but Cotten is an exceptional character and the finale is quite a memorable ordeal. Review

Despite “Dutchman’s” limited design and focus, the two leading players are sensational and the message is potent and endlessly relevant. Review

Nevertheless a welcome endeavor to see this famous duo back on the big screen... Review

Combining the plentiful action with laugh-out-loud funny resolutions. Review

The crown jewel of the Wallace and Gromit series. Review

Isn’t the best of Wallace and Gromit’s misadventures, but it’s nevertheless a solid piece of family-friendly entertainment. Review

The tale unfolds swiftly and with plenty of twists... Review

Riddled with faults, but it’s still watchable in rare parts... Review
