This film had potential to be much funnier, but just couldn’t put together the right formula. While Jake Johnson was fairly consistently entertaining, Damon Wayans, Jr. was the weak link in this buddy comedy. While showing hints of the same comedy chops that made his father famous, he is asked to play somewhat of a… Read More: Movie Review: Let’s Be Cops »

As expected, the stars of the movie are the tornados, which generally show up for five minutes or so, destroy a few things in dramatic fashion, and then leave us with the boring characters. They try to inject some life into the… Read More: Movie Review: Into the Storm »

Most of the other characters, particularly Rob Lowe’s Hank, come off as… Read More: Movie Review: Sex Tape »

Pretty mediocre. This movie doesn’t have much going for it. The concept of an assassin teaming up with a cop is ruined by the fact that the duo just never clicks. Sung Kang does an OK job, but his character has no real motivation and really contributes nothing to the team. Stallone, as always, has… Read More: Movie Review: Bullet to the Head »
