Against the odds, John Carter is itself pretty amazing-an epic pulp saga that slowly rises to the level of its best imitations and wins you over by degrees. I say that as a grown-up moviegoer; behind me at a recent screening was a row of 10-year-old boys who were ecstatically in from the get-go. That's probably all that matters.
One of the most visually beautiful movies you can see on the big screen.
I'd hate to imply that it's your civic duty to see The House I Live In, but guess what it is.
More often than not ... 'Selma' focuses on the one thing we don't expect in a movie about Martin Luther King Jr. - his doubts - and Oyelowo comes through with a deeply felt and quite brilliant performance.
Never less than bizarrely delightful. The monster is mesmerizing.
