1.
The Pirates! Band of Misfits
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
04/27/12 Good (Not Great) "...tips the scales to favor adults over children... This pirate tale is a misguided adventure that doesn't fully set sail."
2.
Dr. Seuss' The Lorax
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
03/02/12 Very Good "...while the movie is funnier than the book, the drawback of this modernized version is that it loses the timeless quality of the story on the page."
3.
The Secret World of Arrietty
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
02/17/12 Very Good "...proves that imagination still matters amid all the clamor."
4.
Arthur Christmas
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
11/23/11 Very Good "...stays sweet without becoming overly sentimental and is filled with sly details and smart action sequences."
5.
Norwegian Wood (Noruwei no mori)
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
11/16/11 Good (Not Great) "...contemplative... filled with muted performances and beautiful Japanese landscapes, but it also feels every bit of its 133 minutes."
6.
I Don't Know How She Does It
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
09/16/11 Moderate "...mildly funny... Like its main character, 'I Don't Know How She Does It' tries to do everything, but it doesn't quite succeed."
7.
Glee: The 3D Concert Movie
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
08/12/11 Weak "...enough is enough. Even die-hard fans will cover their ears in protest.... more like a long commercial than a cohesive movie, and the omissions are glaring."
8.
The Smurfs
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
07/29/11 Moderate "...cutesy characters and slapstick humor will appeal to younger children.... Parents can appreciate the innocence of the movie: no shootouts, panda killings or overly adult jokes..."
9.
Something Borrowed
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
05/06/11 Moderate "...doesn't break any new ground, but it is a decent way to spend a girls' night out. Just don't expect it to be worth a long-term commitment."
10.
Mars Needs Moms
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
03/11/11 Moderate "...tries for silly laughs... The 3-D animation doesn't add much warmth.... a kids' movie that leaves audiences cold."
