The Martian
The bottom line is The Martian is a hugely entertaining movie and although it has a running time of 141 minutes it really does not seem that long when you are immersed in it.

Sicario
Not since Steven Soderbergh's Traffic has their been a film quite like Sicario.
The Intern
The Intern certainly isn’t going to win any major awards, but it is a light hearted, fun look at retirement and the generation gap.
Black Mass
Black Mass isn’t a docudrama, nor is it a “gangster” film; and, as a straightforward drama it just isn’t all that strong.
Legend
For me, after a year that promised so much and has given so little, it’s refreshing to walk out after seeing a movie and wanting to see it again. Legend is the best film I’ve seen this year.
The Visit
For those looking for a jump out of your seat, wet your pants, scary, gory slasher film, The Visit isn’t it. It is more psychological in nature and what I would classify as a thinking man’s horror thriller.
We Are Your Friends
Entertaining as it is, and with some good acting thrown in, I think We Are Your Friends misses the mark in some aspects and won’t be a blockbuster in theaters.
No Escape
In every sense, the word 'thriller' has never been more accurate to describe a film.
American Ultra
American Ultra couldn’t decide if it was a serious spy movie or a parody of a spy movie, which confused the audience and left each individual trying to figure out what the purpose of the movie was.
Hitman: Agent 47
When Hitman: Agent 47 fails at the box office, one could, and will, argue the case that Hitman: Agent 47 didn’t fair well because R rated films have fallen out of fair with audience. However, this couldn't be further from the truth. Hitman: Agent 47 failed because of a weak script created by a studio hack that has a track record of horrible films.
