Rating	Title \| Year	Author	Quote
2/4	Spectre (2015)	Christian Toto	A nefarious Bond villain apparently stole the Spectre script and reduced Oscar winner Christoph Waltz's role to a sad, super-sized cameo. Posted Nov 06, 2015 Edit critic review
1.5/4	Truth (2015)	Christian Toto	Scare quotes around a movie title have never been so necessary. Posted Oct 30, 2015 Edit critic review
	Bone Tomahawk (2015)	Christian Toto	Bone Tomahawk shows the Western is more than sturdy enough to thrive in 2015. Posted Oct 23, 2015 Edit critic review
2.5/4	Steve Jobs (2015)	Christian Toto	Ever Oscar-bait element lines up for our approval. So why isn't Steve Jobs better? Posted Oct 16, 2015 Edit critic review
2.5/4	A Walk in the Woods (2015)	Christian Toto	Is Nick Nolte auditioning for the Burgess Meredith role in a "Grumpy Old Men" reboot? Posted Sep 02, 2015 Edit critic review
2/4	We Are Your Friends (2015)	Christian Toto	Is it a comedy? A coming of age film? A cautionary tale? A romance? These Friends can't make up their minds. Posted Aug 28, 2015 Edit critic review
3/4	No Escape (2015)	Christian Toto	Lousy ending. Weak anti-western culture jab. But the film's midsection is as tense as any movie you'll see this year. Or next. Posted Aug 26, 2015 Edit critic review
2/4	Hitman: Agent 47 (2015)	Christian Toto	It's fine for a no-expectation channel surf stop. Otherwise, let's put this quasi-franchise out of its misery. Posted Aug 21, 2015 Edit critic review
3/4	Being Evel (2015)	Christian Toto	Imagine how high Evel Knievel would have soared in our social media age? Posted Aug 17, 2015 Edit critic review
3/4	Straight Outta Compton (2015)	Christian Toto	Straight Outta Compton celebrates the gangsta rap era with a bit too much glee, but it's mesmerizing every step of the way. Posted Aug 14, 2015 Edit critic review
2.5/4	The Man From U.N.C.L.E. (2015)	Christian Toto	It's a better catalog than movie, but Man from UNCLE offers enough panache to pacify ticket holders. Posted Aug 14, 2015 Edit critic review
3/4	Lost Soul: The Doomed Journey of Richard Stanley's Island of Dr. Moreau (2014)	Christian Toto	Some of the worst movies give way to the best documentaries... Posted Aug 13, 2015 Edit critic review
2.5/4	Trainwreck (2015)	Christian Toto	Can a comedy be too funny for its own good? Posted Aug 12, 2015 Edit critic review
3/4	Ant-Man (2015)	Christian Toto	For once the bad buzz and worse trailers were wrong. This hero deserves a movie all his own. Posted Aug 12, 2015 Edit critic review
3/4	The Gift (2015)	Christian Toto	The Gift doesn't succumb to genre banalities until its final scenes. That's more than enough reason to see it. Posted Aug 12, 2015 Edit critic review
3.5/4	Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation (2015)	Christian Toto	Rogue Nation's opening scene is as thrilling as anything we've seen from those "Furious" films. And your brain won't hurt minutes later. Posted Aug 12, 2015 Edit critic review
1/4	Fantastic Four (2015)	Christian Toto	Is it too late to apologize to Jessica Alba and co. for their previous "Four" features? Posted Aug 12, 2015 Edit critic review
