Friendship

Simultaneously the funniest and hardest to watch movie of the year. There’s a brilliant combination of absurdity and awkwardness that will have you laughing out loud throughout. Paul Rudd and Tim Robinson’s humor mesh perfectly. The only thing that hurts this is that I can’t handle Robinson for more than a few minutes at a time, and he’s on screen a lot.

7.5/10

Tornado

A visually stunning samurai western that suffers from not having enough of its characters and story fleshed out. What you do get is still pretty solid though. The violence of the revenge is satisfying enough to keep you entertained in a way that makes you forget how long it took to get there.

6.8/10

Fight or Flight

Love, love, love Josh Hartnett being back in a big way. There’s creative kills that are so fun to watch and it helps that it’s set in a concise location. But you know what? Everything outside of the action is so predictablly boring that makes the rest of this hard to tolerate.

5.8/10

Dangerous Animals

This falls into the list of movies with the coolest premises that fail to fully deliver on them. Jai Courtney is beautifully unhinged and the highlight of a movie that gets less engaging as it goes on.
