This feels like a dumbed-down synopsis of something cracked to begin with.

Battery Lownew
For Adam Sandler, learning to act now not only would be difficult, but also would amount to something like a betrayal of his fan base.

Superman’s Blue Clothesnew
This version is merely a souped-up, CGI-enhanced extension, with fancy new tights on the hero that look like they were skinned from some kind of red, yellow and blue intergalactic reptile.

It's No Mitzvahnew
Most of the film's scenes are awfully slow and empty of interes, and its rhythm and timing are nonexistent.

The Bloodline Gangnew
Spotty acting, uneven pacing, goofy dialogue -- The Da Vinci Code often feels like a dumbed-down synopsis of the original.

Of Gospel and Gangsta Rapnew
There are a lot of firsts in this film set mostly in Harlem, but not even the presence of Eartha Kitt can bring this negligible and amateurish work to life.

Boys in the Southern Hoodnew
The well-meaning but confused and sloppy “ATL” focuses on a clutch of Atlanta high-schoolers who alternately struggle to imagine some way out of the hood or succumb to its darker temptations.
