Much of the The 40-Year-Old Virgin's success comes from Steve Carell's outstanding performance, supported by an equally stellar ensemble cast.

The Instigators doesn’t exactly break new ground, and its ending feels a bit rushed, but it compensates with impressive car chases and some intriguing political commentary on heroism and the armed forces.

Encino Man may not be a timeless classic, but it sure knows how to serve up a heap of goofy fun.

The Fall Guy is one of the most entertaining movies I’ve seen in a long time. It’s a joyful throwback to the '90s action films that shaped my love for cinema, wrapped up in a fun, meta commentary on the film industry itself.

While Hit Man shares some similarities with Bernie, it also diverges in ways that are both intriguing and challenging.

You Hurt My Feelings spoke to my creative soul. Director/writer Nicole Holofcener brilliantly and comically explores the themes of love and support when it comes to balancing personal and professional aspirations.

The Holdovers is patient, but not slow. It's funny but doesn't go for the easy gag. It's heartbreaking, but not overly sentimental.

Though I was entertained by this version of Mean Girls, there was an overall flatness.

The action scenes in Get Smart are way better than they needed to be and the jokes are right down my lane.
