The Lincoln Lawyer – (2011) Movie Trailer, Review, Synopsis Ryan Phillippe is a good actor even though he doesn’t necessarily have a lot of famous work. His role in Cruel Intentions is memorable even though that movie was made in 1999 and everyone remembers him as the cop in Crash. He hasn’t really played in [...]

Limitless Review This movie “Limitless” strikes home with me, it’s all about unlocking the potential of the human brain and I’m a big promoter that everyone should work to heighten their intelligence. I myself try to read everyday (it doesn’t always work out that way but I try), so a movie where you simply take [...]

Hop Review At first glance this live-action movie reminds me a lot of Alvin and the Chipmunks… a rodent that talks and lives with a human and has a passion for music. Which makes a lot of sense, the director for Hop (Tim Hill) also directed Alvin and the Chipmunks. Not only that but this [...]

Rango Review Johnny Depp would have to be in my top five favorite actors (or at least top ten). Even though “The Tourist” received bad reviews, he’s still is one of my favorites. He is starring as a voice actor in an upcoming Paramount Pictures animated movie “Rango” where he plays a chameleon who by a [...]

The Adjustment Bureau Review A lot of people like to beat down on Matt Damonbut I think he’s a good actor for the most part. ‘Good Will Hunting’ is still one of my favorite movies of all time and the Bourne movies are amazing. The plot to Adjustment Bureau is genius, I’m guessing it will have people [...]

Captain America: The First Avenger Review We’ve done a lot of posts on Captain America here at Critic Approved so I figured it’s about time I posted the review. Typically I like to wait until the trailer is released before I write the review but oh well… here it goes. As almost all of you [...]

Hall Pass Review I mainly only ever watch Netflix and sense Netflix has every single Saturday Night Live episode it of course means that I’ve been watching tons of SNL. So yea, I’m familiar with the work of Jason Sudeikis… he’s also great in ’30 Rock’. So just to see a familiar face in the [...]

Unknown Review You can say a lot of things about Liam Neeson but the man knows how to act intimadating. This role reminds me a lot of his role in ‘Taken’, not necessarily the character but the whole attitude that he portrays is definitely similar. In this movie he plays Dr. Martin Harris, a married [...]
