Review: Yes, ‘Ambulance’ is stupid — but oh boy, is it fun
Michael Bay's “Ambulance” is a bifurcated mess that can’t decide what kind of movie it wants to be and so chooses instead to be several movies at once. Yet in spite of (or perhaps because of) its myriad flaws, it’s impossible to resist the film’s siren song. FOX film critic Allison Shoemaker reviews the action expert's latest.
Review: ‘Sonic the Hedgehog 2’ is bigger and more boring than the original
“Sonic the Hedgehog 2” is much bigger (and a half-hour longer) than its predecessor, yet Sonic’s quest still can’t support an entire movie, no matter how extravagant or action-packed it might be. Film critic Vikram Murthi reviews this flashy sequel.
