Movie Review for April 25, 2014

THE OTHER WOMAN
PG-13
Stars: Cameron Diaz, Leslie Mann, Kate Upton
Plot: Three women find out they are being cheated on by the same guy and, together, they plan their revenge.
Trailer

Clint Says: Wait for the DVD


This is one of those movies that is marketed as a comedy, but all of the funny stuff is put into the trailer. The actual movie is a fairly boring revenge flick with poor editing (you can see several places where the movie was over dubbed and they didn't bother to fix it), and a completely predictable plot.

This movie is entirely forgettable. In fact, this movie was so boring and forgettable that, even though I saw it in a fairly crowded theater, I only heard a few people laugh just a couple of times and during one particularly boring scene I looked around and most of the people were talking with each other, not paying attention to the movie at all.

If you want to see a funny girl movie save your money and wait for MOM'S NIGHT OUT (it comes out in 2 weeks).



BRICK MANSIONS
PG-13
Stars: Paul Walker, David Belle, RZA
Plot: An undercover cop and an ex-con must work together to bring down a crime lord overseeing a walled-in section of Detroit.
Trailer

Clint Says: Don't even bother


BRICK MANSIONS is the last film that Paul Walker worked on in its entirety. Unfortunately it is one of the lamest action movies I've seen in a long time. It is completely cliche and predictable and the dialogue is laughable.

I will say that there are some pretty good fight scenes and some cool parkour, but it's not worth spending $10 to see that.



THE QUIET ONES
PG-13
Stars: Jared Harris, Sam Claflin, Erin Richards
Plot: A professor and his students perform experiments on a strange woman and the results are supernatural.
Trailer

Clint Says: Wait for the DVD


While the premise for THE QUIET ONES is interesting, the movie is lacking. This film comes from Hammer Films, the makers of THE WOMAN IN BLACK and LET ME IN, both well done horror flicks, but it seems that the film makers may be resting on their past successes with this movie.\

If you want to see a good horror flick in theaters this weekend, go see OCULUS instead.
