‘Olympus Has Fallen’ is a throwback to the popcorn-action flicks of yesteryear

The implausibility of much of what happens in this film isn’t worthy of discussion or real consideration. It’s a popcorn action flick and on that level it delivers quite well.
-
No need to apply early for ‘Admission’, wait for the DVD

There is little real magic in ‘The Incredible Burt Wonderstone’
by
Like an illusion involving levitation where the wires can clearly be seen, this was ultimately less than satisfying

Clichés from the 1960s abound, including iconic songs, stock footage, ‘hippies’ and more. But there is a decent romance here.

Take a trip to the ‘New World’ for a very good crime thriller

‘Oz The Great and Powerful’ is sweet candy for the eyes
