Informant (Meltzer, 2012)
If you’re looking for answers as to who Brandon Darby really is, or what the motivations behind his turning in two young men suspected of planning to bomb the Republican National Convention really were, then this movie will not be a profitable use of time.

Riddick (Towhy, David)
After the first seven minutes, I was worried, but then I realized the first seven minutes were actually a preview for a Metallica concert film.

The Ultimate Life (Landon, Jr., 2013)
When we stop asking our films to save the lost while entertaining the justified and just let them do one or the other, I expect we'll all be a lot happier.
