Seth Rogen is perhaps the least likely leading man to come down the pike since Dustin Hoffman and much like Hoffman in Midnight Cowboy, just three years after his star began to seriously rise, Rogan choose to take on a leading role which casts him in an entirely unlikable light with his new film Observe and Report.

Observe and Report is so bad we're almost without words. In years to come, this may be the film people point to when they discuss the demise of Seth Rogen's career.

Like Boys on the Side with the Iraq War as a backdrop, The Lucky Ones follows three unlikely friends, tossed together by extenuating circumstances, setting off on a cross country road trip that bonds them into an extended family. Michael Pena, Tim Robbins and Rachel McAdams star as US soldiers, each injured in battle, returning to America with a mission.

Law Abiding Citizen See It or Skip It

F. Gary Gray's latest effort, Law Abiding Citizen, starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler, is a knockout! Exhilirating, wry and breathcatchingly paced, it's a stellar accomplishment for everyone involved. Hell yeah you should see it!

The Boys Are Back See It or Skip It

Scott Hicks, the director of Shine, and Clive Owen teamed up for this gloriously beautiful if underwhelming project. It's not that it's bad, it's just not that memorable and with such supreme talent attached, I was hoping for and expecting a lot more.

Jennifer's Body See it or Skip it

Oh, Diablo Cody, why'd you have to do it? I love you so long...and then you made this. Megan Fox does what she always does, she looks hot. At least there's that. Sophmoric, unfunny and obsessively idiosyncratic, it's a painful movie going experience.

See It or Skip It: World's Greatest Dad

Chocolate and peanut butter. Spaghetti and meatballs. Bobcat Goldthwait and profanity. Two great tastes that taste great together. Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
