Featured reviews
Ryan Reynolds and Denzel Washington (Universal Pictures)

'Safe House' plays it 'safe'

2.0 Stars  As a CIA agent "gone rogue," Denzel Washington's calm is absurd. Yet it’s exactly what’s needed in a by-the-numbers chase-’em-down and shoot-’em-up movie: confidence.
Rachel McAdams and Channing Tatum

'The Vow'

2.5 Stars  This is what you might get if the eminent neurologist-author Oliver Sacks tried his hand at a True Romance comic, and, as such, it’s quite watchable date-night cheese - the kind of movie you can simultaneously snort at and enjoy.
Oscar Nominated Short Films

'Oscar Nominated Short Films 2012: Animated/Live Action'

2.5 Stars  This is more of a mixed bag than usual, but worth seeing for the animated “The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore’’ and the live-action “Pentecost.’’
'The Oscar Nominated Short Films 2012: Documentaries'

'The Oscar Nominated Short Films 2012: Documentaries'

3.5 Stars  This year’s crop spans the globe from Japan to Pakistan to the American South, and each film shows people coming to terms with almost unimaginable events and struggling to reclaim their dignity.
Dwayne Johnson

'Journey 2: The Mysterious Island'

1.5 Stars  Even by the unambitious standards of some children’s movies and many that star Michael Caine, this one has a difficult time making a case for itself as anything other than an adventure in babysitting.
'W.E.'

'W.E.'

2.0 Stars  Madonna’s second film as director is a double-drama about Wallis Simpson and the romance that led to the 1936 abdication of Edward VIII and the modern-day sufferings of a Park Avenue housewife.
Danielle Radcliffe

'The Woman in Black'

2.0 Stars  Daniel Radcliffe, the erstwhile Harry Potter, stars in this blah ghost story searching a big, dreary house for the source of off-screen sound effects.
Big Miracle

'Big Miracle'

3.0 Stars  This film about three migrating California gray whales stranded beneath miles of ice far above the Arctic Circle needs only to entertain, and that it does thoroughly, with minimal preaching.
Chronicle

'Chronicle'

2.5 Stars  Pieces of this found-footage superhero movie are downright brilliant, including the climax, but the filmmakers can’t decide whether they’re making fun of the genre or just going overboard with it.
Liam Neeson

'The Grey'

2.0 Stars  It’s cheap the way this movie wants to be both a Liam Neeson “Quit Taking My Stuff’’ movie and an existential thriller about survival.
Kate Beckinsale

'Underworld Awakening 3D'

2.0 Stars  Vampires and werewolves are back at each other’s throats in this sequel that's seemingly eager to assert that monster mashes are about B-movie chills not “Twilight’’ melodrama.
