The gritty post-apocalyptic The Rover frustrates us at almost every turn. What would the world look like if all the dystopian talk in Hollywood films actually happened? The Rover tries to give us a glimpse of one man's journey, but its minimalist style drains a lot of needed color from what could have been Oscar glory. The Rover tells the story of a world gone mad, 10 years after an economic collapse in Australia. There, American dollars are preferred, gas and food are scarce, and killing appears to be the preferred way of doing things. Enter the scraggly-bearded Eric (Guy Pearce), whose car is stolen by three thugs after a shooting leaves the fourth thug Rey (Robert Pattinson) critically injured. As Eric pursues the trio to get his car back, he comes into contact with half-wit Rey, who knows where his compatriots have stolen off. Rather than take the truck which Rey's friends have left behind, Eric strangely resolves to get his car back, creating a trail o

Check Out Our List Of The Best For 2013 So Far By: MattInRC I realize the calendar on the fridge reads 'July' and not 'December,' but who cares? In a year that's seen some terrific films, 2013 is shaping up to be a better year overall than 2012. We've done a dizzying 49 theatrical reviews so far, and from that list we've come up with our top 10. Of course, we think this list will change as the second half of the year gets underway, but for now, they're the Best of 2013. Before we get started, a quick note: we did not have access to 2012's Zero Dark Thirty until January 9th, so we'll call one of our pinch hitters in to sub out. 10. Stoker ( Click here for a full review ) One of the most bizarre films in recent memory, Stoker is one part murder mystery, another odd sexual romp. Here's the deal: after the death of her father, India's uncle Charlie arrives to live with her and the unstable but sexually available mother.

IRON MAN 3 Review By: MattInRC Summer 2013 kicks off with the excellent IRON MAN 3 , a film that proves it's more than its previews. Marvel Studios has been on a dominating roll of late. After 2012's amazing The Avengers , the studio known for Thor, Captain America, The Incredible Hulk could have rested on their laurels, content to churn out successful but empty follow-ups (George Lucas, are you listening???). Not Marvel: it's changed the way we watch movies, now and forever. No one waited around until after the credits pre-2008 when Iron Man first debuted; now, we hope other franchises get the hint. Marvel has defined the connected universe, making each of their releases almost like essential rights of passage. Even 2010's rushed Iron Man 2 couldn't lessen demand for a super-hero mashup that put DC on suicide watch. As IRON MAN 3 soars into theaters this week, we're reminded once again of why we love this franchise and the studio who continues t
