Bad Words Review By: Matt Cummings The spelling bee from Hell comedy Bad Words is mostly fun, but fails to deliver the knockout punch. Actor Jason Bateman has made a fortune playing nice guys who get wrapped up in craziness - his newest release Bad Words sees him move to the director's chair to craft a crass and ugly spelling bee comedy that fails to hold our attention. Guy Tribly (Bateman) starts the movie by telling us "I'm not good at a lot of things, especially thinking things through." An angry 40-something, Guy's been traveling the country appearing at spelling bee competitions to outclass the event's directors via a loophole that allows him to participate. His most-recent victory earns him the wrath of local parents as they chase him to his car. But Guy's on a mission, dragging the online blogger Jenny (Kathryn Hahn) with him, whose site is paying his entrance fees and hotels. While she attempts to figure out his backstory,

Divergent Review By: Matt Cummings The terribly flatlined  Divergent offers nothing new and plenty to dislike.  In an industry dying to find the next big thing, Hollywood has understandably latched on to YA: read by entire demographics who heretofore claimed romantic comedies as their their own, Hollywood correctly recognized its potential. However, its ability to reel those fishes in has been rocky to say the least: for every Hunger Games , there's Mortal Instruments , Beautiful Creatures , and Vampire Academy . With such a track record, it's clear that moviegoers haven't embraced the genre the way it's worshiped super hero films as of late. Hoping to reverse that trend is the blase and imitative distopia of Divergent , a film that will make a lot of money only because of its rabid fan base and certainly not because of its pedigree. After a conflict ends the United States 100 years before, the city of Chicago has endured by erecting a giant electric fe
