At the end of 2013, the editor of Screened.com asked me to write up a list of my favourite films of the year. This was the result.
The Secret Life of Walter Mitty is neither funny, moving, nor interesting. Instead, it’s just a giant, disappointing failure.
The Harry Hill Movie is exactly as bad as it looks, though it’s not due to a lack of trying.
It’s way too long, haphazardly plotted and teases on being more than a joke machine without really following-through, but I laughed more at Anchorman 2 than almost any other comedy this year.
Movie nobody cares about does as well as you’d expect, Inside Llewyn Davis does as well as you’d expect, everything else is pretty freakin’ miserable, and Other Box Office News
Oldboy is a perfectly serviceable and unremarkable Hollywood thriller. This, incidentally, makes its existence all the more pointless.
Frozen is one half post-2000 Disney’s masterpiece and one half inexplicably, personally infuriating disappointment. You will probably enjoy it, however.
