Vengeance
Good 66 Points 2022

Vengeance isn’t original. Hell, it’s the eighth movie titled Vengeance. Nor is it LOL funny, other than maybe that bit about Texas football. But it is interesting and of-the-moment and almost kind-hearted. That’s enough to make an expensive trip to the multiplex worthwhile. B. J. Novak’s pass…

Valkyrie
Good 96 Points 2008

Valkyrie is an ultimate Nazi movie hamstrung by a lack of Germans: As victors, the Americans and British get to write the history of WWII, but they should at least have used Teutonic actors for this German Army story. Instead Allies play Krauts in Bryan Singer’s movie, complete with more Briti…

V For Vendetta
Great 18 Points 2005

V makes a rollicking good time of getting back at the bad man – an evil controlling government inBritain’s future. You instantly side with V (Hugo Weaving) and his pretty sidekick Evey (Natalie Portman), who get in to a cat and mouse with the law – who is often just shy of stumbling upon t…

Unknown
Good 83 Points 2011

As Liam Neeson movies go, Unknown is a bit sub-par. It bears a resemblance to the Taken duo in that he’s an American on the run from and after bad guys in a European capital, but its plot is way more mysterious. Too mysterious, even though it reve…

Under the Skin
Great 83 Points 2013

Scarlett Johansson has never been more alluring or revealing than in Under the Skin, her second inhuman hottie role of the year. Her gave us her voice. Under the Skin gives us her body, extraordinary face and all. Serious ScoJo fans must see it, the adventurous ones anyway. It’s a super…

Unbreakable
Good 17 Points 2000

M. Night Shyamalan casts Bruce Willis and Samuel L Jackson in a heady supernatural thriller that pits the Unbreakable Willis against the Breakable Jackson. This is an intriguing thriller with a not so smooth transition from character discovery to conclusion, but entertaining enough to keep you w…

Twister
OK 17 Points 1996

It must not be easy to create a full-length thriller about twisters and their storm chasers, and usually Michael Chrichton stories are more of a slam dunk for this genre. Encumbered by the unlikely story of weatherman (Bill Paxton) trying to divorce his wife Jo to be with the way less hot Meliss…
