David Gordon Green’s The Sitter is essentially an R-rated retooling of Chris Columbus’s Adventures in Babysitting from 1987. The kids are edgier, situations are shamefully more homophobic, and, opening with a scene of oral sex, it’s completely unafraid...
Let’s face it. Ben Stiller and Vince Vaughn aren’t getting any younger and both are in serious need of a hit. Their collective dry spell is a bit overlong and both are capable comedians… but their guaranteed shtick gets a bit tiresome. One talks too much ...
21 Jump Street is an unexpectedly weird and wild ride down the nostalgic turnpike. Full of expected vulgarity, explosive action beats, and sudden turns full of sweetness and character only to slam into a wall of genuine weirdness, it’s a movie that is hard to describe and that, ...
