Transformers: Dark of the Moon
If you can get past the cardboard characters, the awful new actress and the boring first 90 minutes, there's a halfway decent action flick here. It just takes forever to get there. By Sean Collins-Smith.
Cars 2
You wouldn't know it by the look and feel of "Cars 2", but this loud mishmash of mishandled material is a Pixar Production. By Sean Collins-Smith.
Kung Fu Panda 2
"Kung Fu Panda 2" is a darker, more mature adventure than the first, but its knack for silliness remains thankfully in tact. By Sean Collins-Smith.
The Hangover: Part II
Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms and Zach Galifianakis reprise their roles in "The Hangover: Part II", which itself reprises basically every single thing that happened in part one. Which, in the end, might not be so bad. By Sean Collins-Smith.
Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides
Captan Jack Sparrow returns to search for the fountain of youth, an interesting prospect that is soon marred by mermaids, stale action and downright boredom. By Sean Collins-Smith.
Fast Five (Two Takes)
Bad ass and proud of it, Fast Five is this spring's first summer movie. By Michael L and Sean Collins-Smith.

Young Jeff Bridges looks awful and the characters aren't much better - was this made on a computer, or something? By Sean Collins-Smith.
Nothing
Film capitalizes on original premise: What if you could wish everything away? By William Davenport
