How to Train Your Dragon 2

How to Train Your Dragon 2 is a sequel with meaning.

22 Jump Street

While this is a film that occasionally succeeds by mocking itself, it is far too rare to save it.

The Grand Seduction

If movie heroes are more irritable than loveable, no film can succeed.

Words and Pictures

Please be warned. No vulgarity, just a love story involving an alcoholic, lost teacher and an arthritic painter. Interested?

Chef

Re-enact old times and see this movie before dining at a restaurant. You will warmly embrace every moment of that evening.

Neighbors

Before buying a ticket, see the original Neighbors which was released in 1981. Both have more laughs than groans.

Le Week-End

This delightful film combines moments of inspired humor with regrettable angst.

The Grand Budapest Hotel

While the Hotel doesn’t quite dance in The Royal Tenenbaums’ league, you can’t expect Wes Anderson to repeat a work of genius. It’s close and that’s good enough for me.

Gloria

If you want to see a Spanish film set in Chile, go see Gael Garcia Bernal in the amusing historical drama, No (2012).
