The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | I regret is that I'd seen the 2009 original and was familiar with the story because it took the punch out of the major plot points/twists. | 4/5 | 5 | 4 | 5 | true | 8 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
Ant-Man | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | Ant-Man isn't so much watching, as living through Weekend At Bernie's. Peyton Reed and co. come and parade the soulless and lifeless corpse of an Edgar Wright film. | 2.5/5 | 5 | 2.5 | 5 | true | 5 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
Delivery Man | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | Delivery Man is a surprisingly heartfelt approach to a very funny premise; despite taking several unnecessary narrative detours along the way. | 3/5 | 5 | 3 | 5 | true | 6 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
The Perks of Being a Wallflower | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | It's adolescent life, without the gloss but the resonant joy of freeze-framed fist pumps. | 5/5 | 5 | 5 | 5 | true | 10 | 11 | 2 | 0 |

Sinister | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | Sinister is a subtle, poetic inquisition into the hypnotic power of horrific images ... oh and it's frightening entertainment at its best. | 5/5 | 5 | 5 | 5 | true | 10 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
The Deep Blue Sea | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | The Deep Blue Sea looked good and featured a fantastic leading performance from Weisz but the men fail the film, like their characters fail Hester (Weisz). Maybe that's the point. | 2/5 | 5 | 2 | 5 | true | 4 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
End of Watch | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | End of Watch is elevated on the shoulders of its leads and their harsh reality; until the filmmakers drop it on its head and reduce it to a frustrating 'Hollywood' cop film. | 3/5 | 5 | 3 | 5 | true | 6 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
Titanic | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | The clunky dialogue, historical inaccuracy and overdose of Billy Zane in the opening stanza of the film is all but forgotten in one of the most emotionally affective, thrilling closing stanzas ever committed to celluloid. | 3.5/5 | 5 | 3.5 | 5 | true | 7 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
These Final Hours | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | These Final Hours renders an abject apocalypse; and yet the last glimpses of humanity are dazzling. | 4.5/5 | 5 | 4.5 | 5 | true | 9 | 11 | 2 | 0 |

Lasseter's Bones | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | Lassester's Bones is as much about the illumination of the myth surrounding the man as it is about man's desire to complete the incomplete and fulfil the unfulfilled. It's poetic, personal filmmaking. | 4/5 | 5 | 4 | 5 | true | 8 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
Fun Size | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | Fun Size is the Nickelodeon equivalent of a Hallmark card for Halloween. Even the target audience will be asking their parents when it's polite to dispose of it after the holiday. | 0.5/5 | 5 | 0.5 | 5 | true | 1 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
Mommy | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | Mommy is unbridled brilliance, Dolan is one of the world's most exciting filmmakers. | 5/5 | 5 | 5 | 5 | true | 10 | 11 | 2 | 0 |

The Little Death | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | The Little Death is a cautionary tale to selfishness and sexual conservatism; told with a desire to be cringe-worthy. It's clever, but it knows it. | 3/5 | 5 | 3 | 5 | true | 6 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
Pacific Rim | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | PACIFIC RIM speaks the disaster language of the original Godzilla, yearns to be in the same league as Star Wars; but unfortunately its style over substance ethos delivers Transformers results. | 2/5 | 5 | 2 | 5 | true | 4 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
Rock of Ages | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | Rock of Ages is what happens when Glee travels back in time with Guitar Hero and does a serious Scarface sized bowl of cocaine and starts a hair band. Cruise's performance is the only thing I enjoyed. | 1/5 | 5 | 1 | 5 | true | 2 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
The Heart Machine | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | One part Vertigo, one part Catfish - The Heart Machine is a great tale of modern paranoia as a result of severing personal connection. | 3.5/5 | 5 | 3.5 | 5 | true | 7 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
Begin Again | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | Begin Again is a delight, not only because of its infectious musical vitality but because it follows the unexpected forks in the road. | 3/5 | 5 | 3 | 5 | true | 6 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
Dark Shadows | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | Dark Shadows has some sporadic moments of fun but on the whole it's an inferior recycled mash-up of Burton's style and Depp's quirky characters from their eight collaborations. | 2/5 | 5 | 2 | 5 | true | 4 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
Finding Nemo | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | Not worth the trip to the cinema but is worth every cent as a home entertainment blu ray purchase. | 4/5 | 5 | 4 | 5 | true | 8 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
The Campaign | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | The Campaign has my vote. Two mainstream comedy titans have managed to make an accessible yet biting satire of the ridiculous state of American politics. | 3.5/5 | 5 | 3.5 | 5 | true | 7 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
Fury | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | Ayer's and his ensemble in Fury cast men in World War Two, the last 'good' war, in a ghastly light. | 3.5/5 | 5 | 3.5 | 5 | true | 7 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
Gravity | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | Not since Ridley Scott (Alien and Blade Runner) has a filmmaker done more for the Sci-Fi genre. Gravity is undeniable.

Rampart | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | Rampart is a hypnotic, subjective, immersive experience into the deepest depths of a character that you love to hate. It's powerfully ambiguous filmmaking; and you need to see it. | 5/5 | 5 | 5 | 5 | true | 10 | 11 | 2 | 0 |

Ted | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | If you love Family Guy and worship at the alter of McFarlane you will absolutely adore Ted. It's ridiculous, inappropriate, hilarious, nostalgic, geek heroin. | 4/5 | 5 | 4 | 5 | true | 8 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
No Country for Old Men | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | Cormac McCarthy's amazing novel was blessed with a usually impossible faithful adaption that translated the power of the words and weaved them into cinema. | 5/5 | 5 | 5 | 5 | true | 10 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
Captain America: The Winter Soldier | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | Captain America: The Winter Soldier sees the talent (rookies or veterans) assembled firing on all cylinders, significantly upping the stake for the next phase of the MCU and showing why we still need "a little old fashioned." | 4/5 | 5 | 4 | 5 | true | 8 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
St. Vincent | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | St. Vincent is heartfelt and loveably crass. While you expect Murray to be magic, it's really his interplay with apprentice Lieberher that scores. | 3.5/5 | 5 | 3.5 | 5 | true | 7 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
Bully | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | Bully's unobtrusive and poetic style, subtly but surgically uncovers the prison-like social hierarchical structure cultivated in US schools ...

The Amazing Spider-Man | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | The "Amazing" Spider-Man doesn't earn its moniker.

The Great Gatsby | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | The Great Gatsby is Baz Luhrman's visual tribute album to the novel; and it's only in his filmmaking comfort zones that any of the essence of the text elevates beyond karaoke. | 2/5 | 5 | 2 | 5 | true | 4 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
Lee Daniels' The Butler | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | The Butler burned like phosphorus early but fizzled towards a heavy handed conclusion and 'message' that lands with the finesse of a sledge hammer. | 3/5 | 5 | 3 | 5 | true | 6 | 11 | 2 | 0 |

A Dangerous Method | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | Fassbender provides a solid tortured performance alongside stand-out support from Mortensen; unfortunately the film hinges on the Sabina character that in Knightly's hands lacked the necessary punch to elevate this film. | 3/5 | 5 | 3 | 5 | true | 6 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
The Lady | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | The Lady doesn't do justice to the amazing life and democratic crusade of Aung San Suu Kyi despite excellent performances by David Thewlis and Michelle Yeoh. | 2.5/5 | 5 | 2.5 | 5 | true | 5 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
Elysium | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | ELYSIUM doesn't have the striking originality and defiance of DISTRICT 9 but its prescient social commentary fused with spectacular sci-fi action makes for essential viewing. | 3.5/5 | 5 | 3.5 | 5 | true | 7 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
The Water Diviner | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | The Water Diviner is one father's crusade for peace as he wades through the devastation of war. Mr. Crowe has done an accomplished job of revisiting Gallipoli, with an open heart. | 3.5/5 | 5 | 3.5 | 5 | true | 7 | 11 | 2 | 0 |

Dom Hemingway | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | Law absolutely relishes the opportunity to strip away any semblance of his former 'sex symbol' status to embody this ape of a man.

Felony | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | Felony isn't interest in asteroidal impact, its focus is the butterfly wings that flap and whip up a hurricane; Edgerton, Courtney, George, Wilkinson and Roberts are the collateral damage. | 3.5/5 | 5 | 3.5 | 5 | true | 7 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
Tusk | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | Tusk is the monster stitched out of a horrific premise and Kevin Smith's brand of downright silliness. | 3.5/5 | 5 | 3.5 | 5 | true | 7 | 11 | 2 | 0 |

Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | If PERCY JACKSON & THE OLYMPIANS: THE LIGHTNING THIEF gave a studio hope enough to jumpstart this franchise then PERCY JACKSON: SEA OF MONSTERS ensures that it 'sleeps with the fishes.' | 2/5 | 5 | 2 | 5 | true | 4 | 11 | 2 | 0 |

Muppets Most Wanted | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | Muppets Most Wanted is essentially the 'B-Side' to The Muppets.

Lost River | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | Lost River is absolutely not going to be for everybody but that's precisely why it's worth your time. Gosling's first outing is hopefully not going to be his last. | 3.5/5 | 5 | 3.5 | 5 | true | 7 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | "Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit" is giving Branagh a chance to get in Dr. Frankenstein's shoe once again; Cozad and Koepp ignore the library of source material and assist in creating a monster from elements of other successful spy characters. | 1.5/5 | 5 | 1.5 | 5 | true | 3 | 11 | 2 | 0 |

King of Devil's Island | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | King of Devil's Island is poetic story of friendship and adolescence in the bleak, cold and brutal 1915 Bastoy.

Blackhat | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | Blackhat feels like the vehicle that Mann wanted to explore the hacking world but the casting and the script's counterintuitive motivations it mutated away from his intent. It's a shame. | 2/5 | 5 | 2 | 5 | true | 4 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
Human Capital | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | It would be easy to right of Human Capital, as 'first world problems: the movie', but when the ripples in the ponds of the rich crash life tsunamis on those in lower social brackets it's riveting. | 3.5/5 | 5 | 3.5 | 5 | true | 7 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
The Wolverine | 2UE That Movie Show | Blake Howard | Moving away from the iconically U.S landscape and toward the brutal, loneliness of the character shreds away the stain of Wolverine Origins & The Last Stand and gives our favourite adamantium skeleton-ed mutant the film that he and we deserve. | 4/5 | 5 | 4 | 5 | true | 8 | 11 | 2 | 0 |
