Write an ordered list of reviews about "four brothers".

1. [Four Brothers] connects with underlying moral currents in the way Westerns used to, back before greed, fear, anger and 'society' provided action movies with all the motivation they needed.
2. Singleton's style over substance approach is the right way to tell Four Brothers' vengeful story
3. (Singleton) paces his drama like an hourlong television installment ... with curse words and gratuitous gore.
4. John Singelton proves the Western mythos can work just as effectively in an urban setting - that those hoary old cliches can find new life in the hands of a capable filmmaker.
5. Don't expect to see John Wayne's swagger in the urbanized rendition of "The Sons of Katie Elder."
6. Unremarkably schizophrenic -- half gritty sojourn into the inner-city furnace, half Hollywood brain death.
7. The camaraderie of a vintage Wester, "The Sons of Katie Elder," has been ubanized and updated into a violent, amoral revenge saga.
8. Along the way, the brothers and their increasingly pathetic adversaries indulge in all manner of licensed or officially overlooked violence, because making things right for your mama is all that matters.
9. An entertaining, escapist, not particularly ambitious ride.
10. Singleton appears to be having fun. But this is one film that would have earned more emotional resonance with a more serious, or at least focused, approach.
Write an ordered list of reviews about "beastly".

1. Maybe the next time they tell this story it'll star the cast of Jersey Shore and The Garbage Pail Kids. Why shouldn't it?
2. In every aspect, from story to tone to characterization to visual aesthetic, it's laughably perfunctory, as though everyone involved were too embarrassed to give it more than a half-ironic token effort.
3. A tween-baiting update that sullies the elegant fairytale with privileged brats in penthouses. Beastly is a crass, spirit-sapping bore.
4. 'Beastly' is a special brand of hogwash: a fairy tale that preaches inner beauty while refusing to obscure the looks of its doomed hero.
5. Fails to convince on every level, thanks to an ironically charisma-free performance from Alex Pettyfer.
6. Beastly has some groan-inducing lines and acting to match.
7. It's not nearly as bad as you've probably heard, thanks to a mercifully short running time and decent performances throughout, but a sloppy script denies Beastly the hormone-infused gravitas it desperately needs.
8. Beastly doesn't quite cover it. Not even monstrous, gruesome or grotesque come close.
9. Beneath it all, however, is a movie with a good heart.
10. Somewhere inside 'Beastly' is a gorgeous, intelligent film, straining to get out of a ridiculous subplot and dopey set-up.
Which movie is the following review about?

'Restrained' and 'tasteful' are not words normally associated with McG, the director best known for countless music videos and the Charlie's Angels movie franchise. We Are Marshall could change that.

Summarize the following movie reviews:

1. This wondrously meditative documentary is an artistic portrait depicting solitude. The fact that there is no narration, no dialogue to speak of is remarkable in itself.
2. The only place the camera doesn't go is the brewery. That's where the monks bottle their world famous Chartreuse liqueur, which sustains them financially.
3. For two hours and 42 minutes, Into Great Silence offers painterly images of an existence that is, almost literally, too reverent for words.
4. Something to behold.
5. Despite his restrictions, Groning finds light and shade, contrasting the natural - more chaotic world - with the regimented life within the cloister.
6. By the final third of the documentary, we evolve to a state of envy - envious at their resolute commitment and their utter faith - and even the most cynical atheist might find himself convinced that if anyone will find God, it is these men.
7. The Silence Before Bach: Illuminates a complexity of ideas, including the passive reflection prior to creative conception and organic to musical formulation and the space between sounds, that fascinate the filmmaker, both musically and cinematically.
8. [Director] Gröning creates a trance-like rhythm of visual and aural patterns, ranging from the repetition of duties and behaviors to biblical quotations.
9. I have never before experienced a greater example of utterly transcendent filmmaking.
10. This Silence is truly golden.

A meditative, deliberately paced doc capable of absorbing patient viewers into a whole different world.
1. The string-along, bad-to-worse nature of The Square affords a distinct, if sour, sort of satisfaction. Yet its construction is a thing of considerable soundness.
2. The Square is a solidly constructed thriller with some missing pieces at the center but vivid splashes of color outside the lines.
3. In terms of a modern crime thriller, you're not going to do any better than this debut film.
4. This brain teaser is tightly edited, cleverly plotted and smartly written. It is lacking in character development and leaves out the sexual gymnastics.
5. For all intents and purposes a film noir of classic proportions, The Square has such a good story it deserves to be seen without knowing too many details about the plot. So I'll avoid plot points, but to say that it is driven by love, betrayal, greed %u20
6. The Edgerton Brothers have come up with a terrific and wonderfully accessible film in which human nature is put under the magnifying glass with detrimental outcomes.
7. You needn't like the characters in a noir thriller as long as you're immersed in their growing desperation.
8. You wonder how the characters could be so inept about their dirty deeds. How did they get so badly in over their heads? It's almost Biblical in the way it metes out rough justice.
9. It's a finely calibrated, spiraling lesson in what not to do when engaging in adultery, blackmail, arson, and general antisocial behaviors, and in its best moments it recalls the everyday darkness of James M. Cain.
10. The Square is a morality noir in which there's very little onscreen morality.
What is the consensus?

The Square may not quite live up to the modern noir classics that inspired it, but with twists and tension to spare, it comes admirably close.
Summarize the following movie reviews:

1. Comedy, romance, sci-fi ... and wonderful whimsy, come together in this surprising film. We love surprises in our cinema, especially ones made with such heart
2. It's a warm, fuzzy indie and a covert sci fi triumph.
3. It will keep you smiling and keep you guessing. It's far from the safe, formulaic comedies that usually emanate from the big studios in Hollywood.
4. Content to charm our pants off rather than set our imagination on fire.
5. Safety Not Guaranteed has real pathos which is always a lovely counterbalance to comedy.
6. It's a slight and modest flick that occasionally lapses into sentimentality, but it's original and nicely carried by the actors.
7. It is one of those nicely-made efforts where every element sits perfectly in place, but the director is too tentative to shift them around too much. So they just sit there. The choice is yours: enjoy the stillness, or move on.
8. The film balances the extraordinary and ordinary with great aplomb, and Duplass and Plaza give beautifully judged performances.
9. If a group of your witty, talented and absolutely committed friends made a movie, this is the kind of truly 'indie' film to which they would aspire.
10. Each of the four central characters is quirky and flawed; what is supremely interesting is how we change our minds about them all. What begins as an oddball idea is fleshed out by way of a myriad branches, leading into different but credible directions

Safety Not Guaranteed's ostensibly modest ambitions are outmatched by the movie's strong performances, beguiling charm, and heartfelt story.
The critic consesnsus is: The look of Hook is lively indeed but Steven Spielberg directs on autopilot here, giving in too quickly to his sentimental, syrupy qualities.. What reviews supported this critic consensus?

1. muddled but fascinating
2. Also-ran Spielberg at best, a would-be blockbuster that no one likes at worst.
3. Who wants to spend over two hours with a Peter Pan who screams, 'Don't mess with me, I'm a lawyer!'
4. All Spielberg achieved is an impressive production design; in every other department, he's profoundly wasted talent, material, and time.
5. In the end, Hook isn't great or terrible, but it's both - a film that has some wonderful moments, and some really awful ones
6. You just have to appreciate its creative angle toward Peter Pan and his world.
7. A clumsy mishmash of a comedy.
8. "Peter Pan" redo has its moments with Hoffman and Williams.
9. Hook is overwhelmed by a screenplay heavy with complicated exposition, by what are, in effect, big busy nonsinging, nondancing production numbers and some contemporary cant about rearing children and the high price paid for success.
10. With all the money and talent and hype that went into this film, it should have been a lot better, but it is entertaining enough to rate a passing grade, especially for Robin Williams fans.
Write a one sentence review of the movie "lost in la mancha".

A remarkable behind-the-scenes look at a movie that wasn't, Lost in La Mancha is an incisive, entertaining document of the difficulties inherent in the moviemaking process.
1. Powerfully moving, revelatory, cathartic filmmaking.
2. One of the most powerful examples of film as self-healing, 'Tarnation' astonishes both as art and as testament.
3. Background is provided by affectless, unemotional words that seem to float on-screen, adding to the sense of dislocation, of fractured fairy tale.
4. A documentary on the making and selling of Tarnation - its most fascinating selling points - could have been more cohesive and compelling than the movie itself.
5. A fluid, emotionally acute movie full of soul and raw energy.
6. Tarnation may not always be pretty, but it's pure, powerful stuff.
7. It's one of the best movies of the year, and simultaneously one of its oddest.
8. Utterly absorbing and accessible.
9. Heartbreaking film.
10. Mesmerizing.

Write a one sentence summary of the reviews above.

Using music and home video footage to great effect, Jonathan Caouette has made a very personal and moving film.
The critic consesnsus is: A powerfully visceral docu-drama highlighting the evils of censorship and the essential need for freedom of speech.. What reviews supported this critic consensus?

1. Burma VJ would be even more intense without its early announcement that some scenes have been restaged, putting the viewer in a regrettably uncertain relationship to what follows.
2. the footage, with the picture jumping as frenetically as the protesters being filmed, brings home as nothing else quite can the energy and the danger of the events depicted
3. The word 'brave' is thrown around too liberally in Hollywood. The folks behind Burma VJ are the bravest souls you'll see on screen this year.
4. Burma VJ celebrates the courage of the Democratic Voice of Burma (DVB), a group of underground journalists who risked their lives to document the 2007 uprising against the junta.
5. If it is rather more interesting as a social and political document than a cinematic one, well, politics and society can be important, too.
6. Events are movingly and fortuitously recorded here, but the world's attention has shifted to other media moments.
7. It's powerful, to be sure, but the most interesting scene is one in which two reporters discuss the impact of their work; are they really changing anything?
8. ...pummeling, electrifying
9. Mesmerizing, Oscar-nominated inside look into the 2007 uprising via the cameras of 30 or so underground videographers who risked torture and prison to record the chaotic events surrounding the rebellion of Buddhist monks against the repressive military
10. No matter how many times anyone tries to appropriate shaky camera techniques, they'll never recreate anything as real as a reporter fleeing heavily armed police.
1. If a movie's success is measured by its ability to get under our skin and provoke a reaction, then this might be the film of the year. Designed to make us furious, this drama pushes us to the brink as we shout at the characters for being so naive.
2. A punchy and effective drama.
3. An effective, nasty little film from Craig Zobel.
4. An uncomfortable, provocative little drama that really gets under the skin and will not be for all tastes.
5. Well as the film is performed, particularly by Dowd as the manager attempting to make order out of chaos, you can scarcely credit what happens.
6. I admired its courageous realism, the fact that it dares to be unpopular yet truthful. Unlike most movies, it will give you plenty to think about.
7. The film edges forward diffidently, never quite matching strength of craft to strength of idea. It's creepily beguiling even so ...
8. Zobel's morality thriller offers uncomfortable commentary on the sport that can so easily be had at the expense of those on the lower rungs of the social ladder.
9. Zobel's feature film brings out the creepy, banal horror of this culminating event, and the awful contemporary insights.
10. Needs more than its "based on a true story" disclaimer to short-circuit our sceptical instinct.

Write a one sentence summary of the reviews above.

Anchored by smart, sensitive direction and strong performances, Complicance is a ripped-from-the-headlines thriller that's equal parts gripping and disturbing.
Summarize the following movie reviews:

1. Once again it's the story of a group whose members must improve a stale repertoire if they hope to win a competition. Which is essentially what sequels like this have to do.
2. Hey, at least nobody is sliding around freshly spewed vomit in this one. Small miracles, people.
3. Almost everything I loved about the original is missing here, even though the sequel tries to mimic it.
4. There's lots to love about the bigger, brassier, funnier sequel to the 2012 surprise hit musical comedy...the pace and gag frequency never really flag and the upbeat vibe of the film is effortlessly boisterous.
5. The enjoyably knowing flavour of the original is still present but feels strangely diluted in this sequel.
6. It may be calculated, but it gets the best out of a talented cast. And with a surfeit of charm and some killer wit muddled in, it'll surely win you over by the first big number.
7. As second rounds of comedies go, "Pitch Perfect 2" definitely is not perfect. Its script is more than a smidge pitchy.
8. As a structured film, it's not very good. As a showcase of voices, dance numbers, and just shear "Let us entertain you!" spectacle, it delivers. (Full Content Review -- Sex, Profanity, Violence, etc. -- for Parents also available)
9. Well before it drops a leftfield Sonia Sotomayor joke, it's pretty clear 'Pitch Perfect 2,' like its predecessor, isn't an Up With People pep-fest.
10. 115 minutes. Can you guess how this tripe ends?

Pitch Perfect 2 sings in sweet comedic harmony, even if it doesn't hit quite as many high notes as its predecessor.
1. Lucas has protected his multibillion-dollar franchise by making a film targeted at children. It gives them exactly what they want--eye candy that moves at light speed.
2. What's important to remember is that the better moments don't merely balance out the weaker ones - they topple them.
3. What is most striking about Lucas' movies -- all his movies, including THX 1138 and American Graffiti -- is a sort of startling obviousness.
4. I must take issue with the intense backlash from other critics against the film.
5. No film made could measure up to the avalanche of buzz and craziness surrounding this release. There is plenty of both good and bad news here.
6. I enjoyed the film and feel that it established the foundation for many story elements that were curiously unexplained in the previous trilogy.
7. As an artist, Lucas is lacking, but as a businessman he knows his stuff.
8. Film franchises come and go all the time in Hollywood, particularly in science-fiction circles, but the Force is still strong in this one.
9. There are no romance, no humor, ultimately nobody to care about in this oddly sterile movie.
10. Lucas' films might not be very deep, but they're very complex and involving in a comic book kind of way.

What is a brief summary of the following reviews?

Lucas needs to improve on the plot and character development, but there's plenty of eye candy to behold.
Summarize the following movie reviews:

1. an intelligent horror film that chips away at the emotions and the intellect without compromise and without respite
2. When Splice is in full flower, there's something magnificent about it.
3. It hit me hard and deep. It's a work of sick beauty.
4. The film sadly lacks the fresh originality of Natali's previous films. Natali's film about DNA-splitting seems disappointingly recombinant.
5. What's so disturbing about this contemporary Frankenstein story is that it might happen - if it hasn't already.
6. [It's] witty, aware of its own craziness, and disarmingly insightful about the psychology of its characters.
7. The film becomes a discomfiting parody of parenting that delivers both the creepiness and the topicality we want from a great horror movie...
8. A surprisingly good sci-fi adventure made even better by the acting talents of Brody and Polley
9. Parts of it work magnificently well, parts of it work magnificently well while being incredibly hateful, and parts of it are just plain stupid.
10. ... the tension comes from watching Brody and Polley's well-crafted characters come together and splinter apart as they become parents of sorts and their tricky ethical dilemma worsens.

It doesn't take its terrific premise quite as far as it should, but Splice is a smart, well-acted treat for horror fans.
Write an ordered list of reviews about "20000 days on earth".

1. Utterly mesmerizing and original.
2. You might come away wishing he'd remained a bit more enigmatic. Then again, that morose rascal is probably just having us on.
3. I'm not sure it can be considered a documentary at all, at least not all the way through. But "20,000 Days" offers an exceptionally intimate portrait of an artist who has sometimes sought to resist explication.
4. This documentary about one day in the life of Nick Cave brilliantly encapsulates what makes the writer/musician tick, and does so in bravura style.
5. Flits between handsome neo-noir pastiche and ripe psychological melodrama.
6. Yet for all the undeniable self-regard - we are very, very fond of ourselves - 20,000 Days on Earth remains an effective, occasionally moving piece of work.
7. [Nina Simone] put a spell on him, and now Nick Cave, with his lugubrious sleights of hand, does much the same to us.
8. A documentary clothed in the robes of a dream
9. At this movie's dark heart is the disarming self-awareness and intelligence with which Cave cops to raiding, mythologizing, and cannibalizing his memories, be they exquisite or banal.
10. I'm not sure whether 20,000 Days On Earth is a documentary, an essay film or a work of complete fiction. I do know I enjoyed it, so it doesn't really matter.
Which movie is the following review about?

Weir has made an admirable work, but he should have created more interaction amongst his characters.

the-way-back
The critic consesnsus is: Breezy and predictable, Tin Cup is a likeable sports comedy that benefits greatly from Kevin Costner's amiable lead performance.. What reviews supported this critic consensus?

1. A formula sports comedy with a lot of non-formula human comedy.
2. The golfing equivalent of Bull Durham -- and just as enjoyable.
3. This film's overriding message is as pleasing as its flippant, skillful banter.
4. As sports movies go (regardless of the sport), this one turns in a respectable showing, injecting some intelligence and maturity into a story that easily could have succumbed to a flood of 'struggling underdog' cliches.
5. One of the best films of 1996 with its message that in love and in sports, playing it safe can't hold a candle to taking risks and acting from the heart.
6. If you are a golfer, you'll have a better time out on the links.
7. Tin Cup, starring Kevin Costner as a likable loser, accomplishes the impossible, maybe the unimaginable -- it makes golf entertaining.
8. Kevin Costner's golfing romance has OK swing but bad form.
9. This is a marginally enjoyable film. It could have been a lot better with more effort.
10. Predictable and lame.
1. The slow-motion footage of these athletes showing off their macho skills is generously underpinned by rumbling hip-hop. Great nightclub wallpaper.
2. This is just a dull promotional video.
3. OK, so it's not quite as searching as Hoop Dreams, but it's hugely enjoyable all the same and boasts - as you'd expect - a terrific soundtrack.
4. Unlike the 1994 basketball doc Hoop Dreams, which investigated collateral issues of education, race and money, this merely sets a twitchy hip-hop soundtrack to an unenlightening parade of eager sporting wannabes.
5. A ho-hum basketball documentary.
6. Beastie Boy Adam Yauch's basketball diary is of limited general appeal.
7. Spot provides the basics with foot-tapping, head-bobbing flamboyance, providing the viewer with a serious helping of heart, soul, and scorching basketball action blended up into a taut, explosive documentary.
8. The extraordinary athleticism and skills of these teenagers, all prime prospects for eventual NBA stardom, makes this a game you really want to see.
9. To concentrate on the film you have to be a basketball fan, or just a basket case.
10. Although this is never less than watchable, you can't help feeling that it would have been a better film if they'd waited a year or so and actually included details of the players' futures.
What is the consensus?

Beastie Boy Adam Yauch proves his worth as a director with Gunnin' for That #1 Spot, a fun-filled chronicle of the top high school hoopsters of 2006.
Write an ordered list of reviews about "star trek vi the undiscovered country".

1. If, indeed, Star Trek VI turns out to be the last of the series, it couldn't have made a more felicitous or more satisfying exit.
2. There is some blood and violence in the film, but it is generally a lot of fun, a fine holiday movie.
3. One of the best of the Trek films with Plummer really hamming it up as a Shakespeare-quoting Klingon.
4. A rousing sendoff for Kirk, Spock, and Bones, and a fitting transition from the original series' Cold-War milieu to the Next-Generation age of engagement.
5. A heavy-handed yet curiously weightless swan song
6. Shows just how difficult it is to practice peace
7. The principals' enthusiasm for their material has never seemed to fade. If anything, that enthusiasm grows more appealingly nutty with time.
8. The bang/buck ratio is high and it's packed with pithy dialogue and little emotional kicks that make it a worthy, dignified sendoff for the crew we've followed for so many (dear God, so many) years.
9. Though patchy, this is a lot more fun than the disastrous Star Trek V.
10. The original crew at its finest, and the Trek lore at its most thrilling.
1. What we do get here is largely fantastic, not only re-energising old-favourite characters but introducing intriguing new ones.
2. The problem here is an absurdly convoluted screenplay that leaps back and forth in time in a manner that is both confusing and increasingly irritating.
3. With the principal players all on top form, some arresting set pieces and a nice mix of humour and drama, Days of Future Past does more than enough to overcome its imperfections and keep fans satisfied.
4. Largely derivative but without feeling lazy, this is an X-outing that takes the best elements of the previous films, particularly the plot of X2, and rehashes it all through a hue of darkness.
5. It's all such rollicking fun it's hard to care about the occasional baffling moment.
6. With director Bryan Singer comfortably back in the saddle, there's a wondrous sense of scale about this ambitious Marvel adventure as the element of time travel to the 70's offers a springboard for unbridled creativity and imagination.
7. It's a character-driven comics movie that mostly forgets about the characters as characters.
8. In the end, it's the cast that makes the movie so compelling and prevents it from being another noisy action-fest.
9. With style, heart and thrills, Singer has nailed the most ambitious X-flick yet. Popcorn pizzazz combines with X2's emotional sweep and something extra: a platform for the X-Men's screen survival.
10. The epic and exciting X-Men: Days of Future Past is the biggest & best entry in the franchise since X2.

Write a one sentence summary of the reviews above.

X-Men: Days of Future Past combines the best elements of the series to produce a satisfyingly fast-paced outing that ranks among the franchise's finest installments.
Summarize the following movie reviews:

1. The ride is occasionally fun because of the utter heartlessness of it all.
2. A pointless exercise in cool by a film maker who needs to grow up. As in: Oh, grow up.
3. As an unfolding event, Snatch is fun to watch, even if no reasonable person could hope to understand the plot in one viewing.
4. As wanker movies go then, Snatch is shrewd and entertaining.
5. Snatch is hard to figure out, but even harder not to laugh at.
6. Simply put, Snatch stinks.
7. It's a play full of fools, of course, and its sound and fury signifies nothing more than mischievous cleverness, but, man, what a ride.
8. Rare film that produces disgust-induced humor with some degree of frequency and yet never stoops to a juvenile level.
9. A film that runs out of steam long before it ends yet still compels you to like it.
10. The progressions are sometimes violent, always gritty, and most often starkly funny.

Though perhaps a case of style over substance, Guy Ritchie's second crime caper is full of snappy dialogue, dark comedy, and interesting characters.
The critic consesnsus is: A moving and enlightening documentary about architect Louis Kahn.. What reviews supported this critic consensus?

1. Fascinating as history, as art and as personal recollection.
2. A highly personal and deeply satisfying look at an enigmatic and often maddening genius.
3. It is a stunning work that captures with elegance -- and touches of lyricism -- the challenge of finding the man through the artist.
4. Appeals on several levels. The son's journey is compelling, but there's also the draw of celebrity: The fact that he had a famous father who dreamed big and built even bigger.
5. A film with all the passion, mystery, tears and joy of first-rate, fully fleshed fiction.
6. An engaging and fascinating piece of first-person filmmaking.
7. Does Nathaniel finally find his father? If so, it's neither to excuse nor to condemn him but to do what he was unable properly to do at his father's wake: say goodbye.
8. I suspect Nathaniel got a lot out of it, and good for him, but it did little for me.
9. My Architect assesses the geometric precision of the structures Kahn built and the moral ambiguities of the ones he tore down. Then it sets us free to decide who he really was.
10. Not only repeats the now-familiar approach, but does so in a transparent, uninspiring manner.
Which movie is the following review about?

Hello, cheesy fun! [It's] a roller coaster of a thrill ride.

10004288-running scared
Write an ordered list of reviews about "summer of sam".

1. The film has no center to hold it together: It feels much, much smaller than its parts.
2. A hodgepodge of dull characters played by even duller actors with occasionally interesting photography and an irritating score.
3. Messy and belligerent.
4. A ragged mess that only rarely connects with its audience or with a point.
5. The script, by Lee, Victor Colicchio and Michael Imperioli, is tighter than those for other Lee movies, but it's still too long and too broad.
6. If Lee could swap background with foreground, this would be a sensational film.
7. Spike Lee is a great director. He is one of the best when it comes to pulling great performances from a large cast, and when it comes to creating a real, palpable impression of a moment.
8. Someone kick that soapbox out from under Spike already.
9. Don't say you weren't warned.
10. t's loud, long and interesting, yet it also feels cold and distant.
1. Aesthetically, the film is phenomenal. Streep and Adams deliver fantastic performances and the parallels between the characters were fascinating.
2. A hi-carb generation gap gourmet outing contrasting elders hooked on sex, souffle and espionage with postmodern workaholic, too tired for romance youth. Though what's served up is basically Julia a la carte.
3. ...a distillation of two good books into something less than intoxicating, but it's still good fun whenever Streep is on screen.
4. As usual, Meryl Streep steals the movie; but thanks to strong writing by Nora Ephron and delightful additional performances by Amy Adams and Stanley Tucci, "Julie and Julia" might steal your heart.
5. A lighthearted comedy that's very easy to like, with some charming performances.
6. This old-fashioned star vehicle of the highest order lacks conventional drama and conflict -- and is none the worse for those absences.
7. Julie's setbacks are dealt out like the hand in a game we don't want to play anymore. We want to drop the cards and stay over at Julia's winning table.
8. Meryl Streep and Amy Adams cook up a treat in Julie & Julia.
9. Cooking shows haven't just jumped the shark, they've pan-seared its still-beating heart and served it as a $40 mini burger with a side of couscous at a SOHO fusion joint. This backlash helps Julie & Julia, half of it, anyways
10. It's not enough to sustain a film that runs over two hours, but it does at least make it pleasant to sit through much of the time.

Write a one sentence summary of the reviews above.

Boosted by Meryl Streep's charismatic performance as Julia Child, Julie and Julia is a light, but fairly entertaining culinary comedy.
Here are some reviews for a movie: 1. Amiable, lightweight fare that adults might appreciate more than children.
2. There's not a single laugh-out-loud moment in the whole film.
3. Good fun if you can put up with the pastel colours and plasticky textures, which show that in modern fantasy animation all that pixellates isn't Pixar.
4. It's frenetic and knowing in the modern manner, though, a couple of good gags apart, not very funny. Its patchiness merely demonstrates the gap between Pixar and the rest of the field - which is the distance between genius and talent.
5. An extremely dull and unfunny comedy with pop-culture references where the gags should be, and humdrum voicings.
6. While pretty much a cut-and-shut of every animated movie of the past decade, this sci-fi comedy should achieve blast-off with the under-10s. For adults, however, this is as solidly so what? as you can get.
7. A jumble of kiddie slapstick and pointless chases.
8. The laughs come thick and fast in a sprightly kid pleaser full of slapstick set-pieces and memorable characters, while more grown-up viewers will find themselves grinning at pastiches of the Cold War paranoia of bygone sci-fi movies.
9. Silly but not hilarious ... with a message that's so simplistic you might miss it.
10. It's no shock to see Shrek co- writer Joe Stillman on the credits, because Planet 51 follows the exact same formula - slapstick for the kids, sly gags for the parents and a rubbish romantic subplot for nobody.

What was the overall consensus about the movie?

Planet 51 squanders an interesting premise with an overly familiar storyline, stock characters, and humor that alternates between curious and potentially offensive.
Summarize the following movie reviews:

1. A slap-happy misadventure featuring Marlon Wayans as a foul-mouthed midget masquerading as a baby in order to retrieve a pilfered diamond from a childless couple.
2. The work of the Wayans brothers, Little Man is even less funny than their last comedy, White Chicks, and enough to get them permanently evicted from the house of mirth.
3. In spite of the admirable effort that the Wayans brothers went to in digitally transplanting Marlon Wayans head and facial expressions onto the two-foot-six-inch body of a nine-year-old actor, "Little Man" is a bawdy and violent comedy that rankles more t
4. It plays like nothing so much as an extended In Living Color stretched to fill 90 minutes, and it feels as thin as it sounds like it should. By the umpteenth variation of mistaking Calvin for a baby the joke has long, long stopped being funny.
5. Slow-moving, tasteless and totally devoid of ingenuity or charisma, this is a gross one-joke monstrosity - and that joke wasn't very funny in the first place.
6. Mere words, mere permutations of 26 paltry letters, are an inadequate resource for explaining how fatuous, unfunny, and profoundly un-entertaining it is to watch Marlon Wayans doing a goo-goo-ga fake-baby routine.
7. There are some films that are hardly worth the trouble of watching: once you've got the central concept, you can pretty much run the movie in your head.
8. Slathers itself in scatology, crotch-punching, hilarious elder/child abuse, and a brutal ration of unearned sentiment.
9. Abysmal comedy that's nonsensical, frequently offensive and almost entirely laugh-free.
10. The Wayans filmmaking clan strikes with another idiotic compilation of bodily-function gags and lowbrow obnoxiousness masquerading as hip comedy.

Another gimmicky comedy from the Wayans brothers, Little Man comes with the requisite raunchiness, but forgot to bring the laughs.
Here are some reviews for a movie: 1. For this crowd, Best of Both Worlds is a concert film on the level of Stop Making Sense and The Last Waltz.
2. Young fans will love sugary sweet concert film.
3. With the disinterest of one not being badgered into coughing up $18 a ticket, what I saw felt a lot like the Barbie's Playhouse version of Madonna's Truth or Dare.
4. The movie spectacular to fulfill your little girls' wildest dreams, and at a considerably lower rate than the live concert.
5. One's opinion of it may depend more on age and parental status than exposure to other rock-concert films. But there's no denying the film delivers on its promise.
6. Cyrus' fans will receive this material as Moses received those tablets from Mount Sinai.
7. $15 is a bargain compared to what scalpers were asking us to fork over so our little darlings could see their teen idol.
8. For parents who were unable to secure tickets for the young fans in their households, it's nothing short of a godsend.
9. Whether you like the music or not, you can't fault Miley -- this young lady works her petite fanny off performing for her fans, and she seems to be having a great time doing it ...
10. It's great for kids to see that Miley doesn't just wake up polished. She makes mistakes, she practices - there's a learning curve and work involved. Fans are sure to enjoy.

What was the overall consensus about the movie?

This high-energy concert film should please Cyrus' rabid pre-teen fan base -- and may come as a pleasant surprise for parents.
1. In its seemingly unassuming way, it's one of the weirdest and most thrilling films of the year.
2. With Bujalski, this is business as usual, but by the standards of the contemporary indie rom-com, it's refreshingly unpredictable and thoughtful.
3. Bujalski crafts a quirky romance with fitness-industry comedy Results, shaping flawed characters into people you might just admire.
4. It took me two viewings to figure out how much I liked the movie. (Quite a lot, it turns out.) That might not sound like a full-bodied recommendation, but why not take a cue from the film's surprisingly lovable gym rats: Results don't happen overnight.
5. You'd expect Bujalski, who made Beeswax and Computer Chess and a couple of other extreme indies, to poke fun at gym culture, the ultimate soft target. And he does, but sweetly and without disparagement ...
6. What happens when a rigorously non-mainstream filmmaker tries to reverse-engineer a mainstream romantic comedy? The result, in all its charming perversity, is "Results."
7. Only toward the end do you realize that the characters have been arranged into a pleasing and familiar romantic-comedy triangle and that you've been watching a beautifully played game of underhand slow-pitch screwball.
8. Although not as strikingly original as Bujalski's earlier work, there's something endearing about the characters, the film's laconic, stoner rhythms and quirky plotting.
9. One of the strangest and strongest of recent romantic triangles forms in the course of this lyrical, fanatically realistic comedy, written and directed by Andrew Bujalski.
10. "Results" isn't always a successful film, but its philosophies about the myths of perfection as they apply to love are at least credible, funny and well observed.
What is the consensus?

Results moves stubbornly at its own deliberate pace, but the well-chosen cast -- and writer-director Andrew Bujalski's insightful observations -- offer rich rewards for patient viewers.
Write a one sentence review of the movie "black swan 2010".

Bracingly intense, passionate, and wildly melodramatic, Black Swan glides on Darren Aronofsky's bold direction -- and a bravura performance from Natalie Portman.
1. It's impossible to feel sympathy for any of The Apartment's characters.
2. Wilder and IAL Diamond's brilliantly witty screenplay has a serious undertow as it savages corporate ethics and conjugal infidelity.
3. I wouldn't call this 1960 picture one of Billy Wilder's best comedies -- it's drab, sappy, and overlong at 125 minutes.
4. Billy Wilder somehow took a story about infidelity and suicide and made it into a comedy.
5. The overlong drawn-out one-hook themed Apartment seemed a tad more bare than furnished.
6. Most of the time, it's up to director Wilder to sustain a two-hour-plus film on treatment alone, a feat he manages to accomplish more often than not, and sometimes the results are amazing.
7. With tremendous performances by the two leads (Lemmon and Shirley MacLaine), this is yet another "must see" title to be found on Wilder's resume.
8. A true classic. It's about advancement, ambition, corruption and adultery, and it operates as both a satire and a sorrowful romance.
9. With finely judged performances from Jack Lemmon and Shirley MacLaine, it's a great way to spend an evening, and it's something you won't forget about in the morning.
10. Not to be missed on any account.
What is the consensus?

Director Billy Wilder's customary cynicism is leavened here by tender humor, romance, and genuine pathos.
Which movie is the following review about?

Kramer vs. Kramer is definitely a movie to watch together -- your kids may well seek shelter under your arm, glad to know their own families enjoy more peace.

Here are some reviews for a movie: 1. Hop is just too shrill, slick and sickly sweet for anybody's good. Watching it won't rot your teeth, but it could leave an ugly cavity in your brain.
2. Uninspired, bland, charmless and increasingly asinine. Only little kids might be fleetingly amused by the eye candy and sight gags.
3. The lack of any comparable reality check will make this one an endurance test for most people who aren't five.
4. Most gags are as disposable as last week's colored eggs, but there's likable geniality that keeps Hop tolerable, hinging on your tolerance of Brand's cheeky style.
5. As fake and forgettable as a marshmallow Peep, "Hop" goes down easy enough. It's the thought of a talented actor stuck on an industry conveyor belt that leaves an unfortunate aftertaste.
6. Just like its sugary setting, Hop is designed to sugar coat everything, and cynically give Easter that commercial feel normally reserved for Christmas.
7. Hop is spectacularly charmless -- there's no spring in its step. The last thing we need is an Easter movie that comes limping down the bunny trail.
8. Though the integration of live action and animation is improving (especially a scene where E.B. cuddles with Fred's sister), it's still a slightly disorienting experience.
9. Silly animated/live-action holiday comedy is fun for kids.
10. The real disappointment, though, is Brand as E.B., giving a motor-mouthed G-rated spiel that denudes him of his R-rated personality.

What was the overall consensus about the movie?

It's impressively animated, but Hop's script is so uninspired that not even James Marsden's frantic mugging can give it any bounce.
Write an ordered list of reviews about "soul surfer".

1. like its main character, it really comes alive when it catches the waves.
2. Though it flirts with saccharine Sunday-school uplift, there's a redeeming core of sincerity in this story of real-life tragedy and perseverance.
3. A movie of easily digestible truths and canned inspirational messages, taking every possible easy route though a story that could have used a few more thorns.
4. An earnest family movie that practically drowns in uplift and good intentions.
5. Somewhere not far beneath the glossy pop skin of Soul Surfer, the true story of Bethany Hamilton is struggling to get out.
6. A solid inspirational story that takes seriously a couple of things often made trivial in popular entertainment: surfing and religion.
7. The best moments come when Robb's all-purpose toughness experiences vulnerable doubt. These moments are flickers, but they're bright and human.
8. This is an inspirational sports drama stuffed full of Christian values and CGI that draws the eye in ways both good and bad.
9. The movie feels emotionally distant, as if director Sean McNamara was so busy setting up gorgeous surfing footage that he forgot to bring the story to the audience.
10. That "Soul Surfer" rates as a giant leap for this team speaks well about the conviction the movie's actors bring to the material as well as the respect afforded the Hamilton family and their faith.
Write a one sentence review of the movie "great muppet caper".

The Great Muppet Caper is overplotted and uneven, but the appealing presence of Kermit, Miss Piggy and the gang ensure that this heist flick is always breezily watchable.
1. A potent and provocative look at how the male ego is affected by sex and self-image, especially when magnified by celebrity.
2. Kinnear and Defoe have real chemistry, and it's a tribute to their talent that they manage to make these two pervs genuinely sympathetic.
3. It would be a mistake to write this movie off as yet another Star Is Born-type biopic about the rise and fall of a latter%u2011day celebrity. Schrader is after something deeper here and even when he misses the mark, the film remains involving.
4. If [it] fails to be the truly great statement that it obviously yearns to be, it can't be faulted much for trying, since most of its failures on that account arise from its desire to remain honest about its subject's limitations.
5. This sexaholic Lost Weekend is way too punitive -- the celebrity version of Looking For Mr. Goodbar.
6. While the disconcerting visual style and the long, dull stretches that cover the same ground over and over again did not work for me, I will say that the acting is tremendously good.
7. Combines the least appealing aspects of the biopic (episodic narrative, lack of imagination) with the least appealing aspects of the junkie's-downward-spiral genre (wearying repetition, lofty condescension).
8. A compelling motion picture that illustrates an American tragedy.
9. Gets to you like a low-grade fever, a malaise with no known antidote.
10. Has no real plot, composed of a mishmash of scenes thematically concerned with Crane's moral downfall. There is no build up or suspense.

Write a one sentence summary of the reviews above.

Kinnear and Dafoe help make this downward spiral of one man's life a compelling watch.
Which movie is the following review about?

An immersive moviegoing experience beyond imagination.

The critic consesnsus is: A moving and heart-felt film from director Denys Arcand.. What reviews supported this critic consensus?

1. By the time Arcand reaches his final scenes, he has revealed one generation's regrets and disappointments and broken through the other's brittle defenses, achieving a resolution that thoughtful viewers of all ages should find profoundly moving.
2. Arcand finds the heart of the matter in every scene and in each monologue.
3. ...The speeches are so deadening, I thought the projectionist had slipped in the last reel of a John Sayles picture.
4. Ultimately a gracious, even sweet-natured film, optimistic almost despite itself.
5. Even if you never saw 'Decline of the American Empire,' you can feel the 'Big Chill' vibe running through these fascinating characters.
6. Terribly long-winded and uninspiring.
7. Intelligent, thought-provoking, frequently moving film with a strong script and an impressive ensemble cast.
8. One of those rare movie sequels that's actually better than its predecessor.
9. Warm, wise and witty.
10. Arcand's intelligent and witty script is the film's strongest attribute.
Summarize the following movie reviews:

1. A terrific movie, smart and funny enough to hold up at any time of year.
2. The first charming present of the holiday movie season.
3. Making this pay off without winking at the audience is a difficult task, and 'Elf' doesn't always feel all of a piece. But in 'Saturday Night Live' alumnus and star Will Ferrell, the film has a guide who steers it unerringly over the bumpy patches.
4. Ferrell handily carries the movie.
5. Elf is by far the best effort by an SNL alum in many years.
6. Its message is unobjectionable, and there are a few laughs to be had, but too much of Elf is like Buddy's favorite meals: syrupy sweet.
7. A Saturday Night Live skit that goes on too long, a one-joke movie that's funny for a while but wears out its welcome.
8. There's not an ounce of meat in this Christmas ham - it's just the usual hollow holiday hype from Hollywood.
9. One of the year's best comedies, right up there with Finding Nemo, A Mighty Wind and School of Rock.
10. An enjoyably goofy yuletide tale of a towering innocent with a serious sugar addiction.

A movie full of Yuletide cheer, Elf is a spirited, good-natured family comedy, and it benefits greatly from Will Ferrell's funny and charming performance as one of Santa's biggest helpers.
Write an ordered list of reviews about "ratatouille".

1. Pixar has become a brand name you can trust.
2. Yes, better than Big Night. Yes, smarter than Babette's Feast.
3. As in his previous films, Bird offers up a story with substance.
4. It's one of the strange ironies of Hollywood that adult audiences are usually treated like imbeciles while children receive much greater respect.
5. The breathtaking reveal of Paris, the legendary city of lights, is only one of the many delights of this exquisitely designed movie.
6. Ratatouille manages to simultaneously provide everything we love about Pixar movies while forging a new path.
7. Ratatouille isn't a bad movie, just one that doesn't do enough of what it does well.
8. Ratatouille is a delicious delight, brimming with colorful characters, lush animation and, as Remy rises at a chic Parisian restaurant, useful culinary advice.
9. Ratatouille seems more charming in concept than in execution. Bogged down by too many climaxes, it's a little overcooked.
10. Working with a tight, well-judged script and sensational animation that makes you want to go home and cook -- as well as be nicer to rodents -- director Brad Bird delivered the best family comedy of that year.
