Reviewed: 'Brave,' 'Seeking a Friend,' 'Rock of Ages,' 'That's My Boy'

BRAVE **1/2 Belle's mom in Beauty and the Beast? Dead. Cinderella's mom? Deceased. Ariel's mom in The Little Mermaid? Nowhere to be found. Jasmine's mom in Aladdin? Kaput. And this is just a small sampling from the Disney universe, where mother-daughter dynamics rarely come into play because the storytellers have elected to deep-six Mom before the story proper even comes into focus. Pixar, which of course is now under the auspices of the House That ...

Review: 'Prometheus'

PROMETHEUS *** Certain to reign as the best disappointment of 2012, Ridley Scott's Prometheus, the heavily hyped prequel-of-sorts to his 1979 classic Alien, is a work whose visual splendor can't be denied but whose narrative content will divide audiences as swiftly and completely as the executioner's ax separated Marie Antoinette's head from everything else. Grappling with no less than the issues of God and creation, it drops clues for audiences members willing to dig deep ...

Review: 'Snow White and the Huntsman'

SNOW WHITE AND THE HUNTSMAN **1/2 Let's get the obvious out of the way: Snow White and the Huntsman, the year's second big-screen outing centered around a forlorn princess, a wicked queen and a magnificent seven, is infinitely superior to Mirror Mirror, which proved to be about as appetizing as a worm-infested apple. If it isn't a complete success, that's because its ambitions are often thwarted by its execution. Kristen Stewart embodies the most independent ...

Review: Men in Black III

MEN IN BLACK III **1/2 It's been 15 years since the release of the delightful Men in Black and a decade since the escape of its lamentable first sequel, and in the interim, audiences have been clamoring for another follow-up only slightly more than they've been jonesing for another Home Alone entry - that is to say, not much at all. It's not that the original MiB doesn't have its legion of fans - hell, ...

Summer at the movies

For the rest of the 2012 summer slate, it's going to be a tough climb to the top. That's because The Avengers opened the season by smashing numerous box office records with the same ferocity that Hulk smashes his enemies. In fact, only one film realistically has a shot at outgrossing the superhero saga. Hint: It's another superhero saga, and it's among the 15 titles (out of approximately 50) listed below as the most promising ...
