  1. 'Giant Slayer,' 'Movie 43' among new DVD, Blu-ray titles

    Akron Beacon Journal
    Moviegoers' interest in fantasy, from superheroes to the supernatural, has prompted a subgenre of movies derived from fairy tales. It has not, based on recent evidence, been welcome. One of the problems with the form has been making it accessible both to...

  3. 'Last Resort: The Complete Series'

    Hampered by an unfortunate time slot, this ABC drama about a submarine and its crew gone AWOL did a remarkably good job of sustaining what might have worked only as a one-episode premise. The always excellent Andre Braugher plays the commander of the...

  7. 'Identity Thief'

    Their styles differ, but Jason Bateman and Melissa McCarthy make for a reasonably amusing pairing in this comedy, containing a sufficient amount of the raunchy humor both have become associated with. McCarthy plays the title thief, whose lifting of a...

  9. Film review: 'Identity Thief' comedy is nearly criminal

    After its first act, "Identity Thief" becomes a predictable, mildly amusing road trip comedy.
    Special to The Herald-Mail
    After its first act, "Identity Thief" becomes a predictable, mildly amusing road trip comedy. This is actually a really good creative decision because the film is effectively cutting its losses after realizing that it can't keep milking laughs from...

  11. Review: Laughs stolen in 'Identity Thief'

    "Identity Thief" is a larcenous bit of funny business. It probably should be locked up for its crimes and misdemeanors against moviemaking.
    "Identity Thief" is a larcenous bit of funny business. It probably should be locked up for its crimes and misdemeanors against moviemaking. But its stars, Jason Bateman and Melissa McCarthy, steal so many laughs from such improbable places that the...

  13. 'Gangster Squad' a stylish but shallow noir tale, critics say

    Taking its name and inspiration from a real LAPD operation that battled organized crime during the 1940s and '50s, the new film "Gangster Squad" dramatizes the story of Sgt. John O'Mara (played by Josh Brolin) and his squad's crusade against the interloping East Coast mobster Mickey Cohen (Sean Penn).

  15. Film review: 'Gangster Squad' is no 'Chinatown'

    It's hard to resist Los Angeles-based films noir -- "Chinatown," "Kiss Me Deadly," "The Big Sleep" being only a few of the best -- but "Gangster Squad" is a bit more resistible than most. Director Ruben Fleischer and screenwriter Will Beall have morphed Paul Lieberman's nonfiction book of the same name into something a good deal more fictional.

  17. Review: 'Gangster Squad' runs through its ammo to no avail

    The new crime thriller "Gangster Squad," with its swell cast led by Josh Brolin, Ryan Gosling, Sean Penn and Emma Stone, tries to capture mob-infested Los Angeles circa 1949, when Hollywood glam ruled the Strip, wiseguys took aim with tommy guns and fedoras were all the rage.
