Interesting in that the story is told from the perspective of a naive, self-righteous protagonist.

Open Windows (2014) 30%
Convoluted and implausible techno-thriller.
Ice Age 2: The Meltdown (2006) 60%
Not as compelling or witty as the original.
Ice Age (2002) 70%
Charming story and well-selected music.
Father of Invention (2011) 30%
Someone forgot to edit the drama and add the comedy.
12 Years a Slave (2013) 80%
Often the best stories are those that ought to be tragedies, but are either made not, or improbably are not. This is one.
Father of the Bride (1991) 50%
I can remember enjoying this movie when it was new. Or perhaps just enjoying Kimberly Williams. Years of learned callousness has made it too sickly-sweet for my taste.
Ferris Bueller’s Day Off (1986) 90%
Transcendental.
Get On Up (2014) 60%
Simplistic biography, bolstered by a charismatic lead performance.
