Review |
Wolf of Wall Street, The | 2013 | 100 | 1 | - When Scorcese is THIS good, this pure and uncut, it's a high rivaled by any of the drugs his deliciously immoral characters partake in. |
Deadpool | 2016 | 97 | 2 | - Just an incredibly fun time at the theaters! |
Cabin in the Woods, The | 2011 | 88 | 3 | - A funny, thrtilling horror flick that turns the genre on its head? What's not to love? |
Fight Club | 1999 | 87 | 4 | - The first rule of Fight Club? Watch it time and time again. |
American Psycho | 2000 | 85 | 5 | - A really, really, really well done film. In fact, it may be OVER done. We could've lived without the "questioning reality" side of the story. It's commentary on greed, superficialness, and intimacy are enough. |
War Dogs | 2016 | 85 | 5 | - A fun, fascinating tale! |
Tucker and Dale vs Evil | 2010 | 84 | 7 | - Practically out of nowhere, this comedy that spoofs slasher films with uncommon wit is an absolute riot. |
An American Werewolf in London | 1981 | 83 | 8 | - A pretty straightforward horror story that incorporates elements of many horror subgenres and spiced with a healthy dose of comedy. |
Bad Santa | 2003 | 83 | 8 | - It's very funny if not a tid too predictable. |
Horrible Bosses | 2011 | 83 | 8 | - Charlie Day and Jason Sudeikis are two of the funniest "B-list" actors out there right now. |
The Nice Guys | 2016 | 83 | 8 | - Crowe and Gosling are an unlikely comedy duo. But it works! |
Scream | 1996 | 82 | 12 | - The no-frills teens slasher knows what its about and doesn't deviate from a solid concept. It's a low-risk, moderate-reward plan that leads to glass-ceiling success. |
Horrible Bosses 2 | 2014 | 81 | 13 | - Sean Anders proves to be the right man for the job to have this sequel bring the funny once again. |
What We Do in the Shadows | 2014 | 81 | 13 | - A very, very funny mockumentary! |
Ghostbusters | 2016 | 80 | 15 | - A solid reincarnation of a beloved franchise. |
Pulp Fiction | 1994 | 80 | 15 | - An instant cult classic, but be warned: it's trendier to pretend to like this movie than it is to actually like it. |
Scrooged | 1988 | 76 | 17 | - It's just a straight-up modern-day Christmas Carol, which is fine. It's fine. |
Bad Santa 2 | 2016 | 75 | 18 | - The laughs are down in the sequel as well as its redeeming charm. |
Birdman | 2014 | 75 | 18 | - 'Birdman' is like a three-ring circus. While it's both wonderous and amazing, there's also a little too much going on. |
Election | 1999 | 75 | 18 | - It feels like, while poking fun at young adult dramas, it accidentally became one. |
Killer Joe | 2011 | 73 | 21 | - As messy as a bloodied piece of K Fried C. |
Snatch. | 2000 | 72 | 22 | - It's "comedy of errors" script is entertaining but not necessarily captivating. |
The Voices | 2015 | 71 | 23 | - Is it comedy? Is it a thriller? Is it a drama? I honestly don't know. But more importantly, I don't think the cast and crew do, either. |
Fargo | 1996 | 70 | 24 | - The Coen brothers' 'Fargo' is an enigma: not funny enough to be a real comedy, not serious enough to be a decent drama, and nowhere close to neatly fitting into any other genre. |
Krampus | 2015 | 70 | 24 | - A horror/comedy that also tries to tug on the heart strings can only work so well. |
The Lobster | 2015 | 68 | 26 | - The problem is, far too often, as 'The Lobster' hits its stride, it goes even whackier and seems to lose the context of its allegorical intentions. |
Seven Psychopaths | 2012 | 66 | 27 | - An interesting dissection of the action movie formula. Still, you're with this nagging feeling the film isn't QUITE as smart as it thinks it is. |
A Serious Man | 2009 | 65 | 28 | - For a movie so deeply embedded in Jewish social culture, the Coen brothers sure like the concepts of karma a lot more. |
In Bruges | 2008 | 65 | 28 | - You buy into the film's more comical moments, not the serious ones. Unfortunately, the ending relies on the latter. |
Kick-Ass | 2010 | 62 | 30 | - What starts out as an honest attempt to make the unlikely superhero comedy takes a sharp right as it becomes a dark semi-action flick. |
Bernie | 2011 | 60 | 31 | - It's a chuckle, not a full-fledged laugh. |
Kick-Ass 2 | 2013 | 60 | 31 | - Like the first, 'Kick-Ass 2' is a walking paradox. It wants to be both juvenile and grown-up, both silly and serious. And it doesn't really work. |
Swiss Army Man | 2016 | 56 | 33 | - I can honestly say I don't know what the hell I just watched. |
Pain And Gain | 2013 | 49 | 34 | - Just because it's not as ludicrous as it appears, doesn't mean it's not ludicrous. |
Evil Dead II | 1987 | 31 | 35 | - Awful. Just absolutely awful. |
