There really are no winners in “Batman v Superman.” That includes moviegoers looking for anything resembling a good time.
When it was announced that David O. Russell’s next movie would tell the story of Miracle Mop inventor Joy Mangano, I couldn’t wait to see how the filmmaker responsible for such recent delights as “Silver Linings Playbook” and “American Hustle” could turn that into a compelling movie.
“You know, plenty of shows out there are, like, ‘Here’s the kid with cancer; now give me an Emmy.’ We’re a show that’s here to show you a hell of a good time for 45 minutes each and every week. That’s our job.”
With “Ex Machina,” writer-director Alex Garland (“28 Days Later”) has crafted an intimate, wondrous, unsettling look at artificial intelligence.
Now that’s how you make a summer blockbuster! There’s more sheer tonnage of awesomeness in the first 10 minutes of “X-Men: Days of Future Past” than in the entirety of “The Amazing Spider-Man 2.”
“The Spectacular Now” rode out of Sundance atop an avalanche of positive buzz and near-rapturous reviews.
