Lockout
The first few minutes of this sci-fi action film weren’t too bad, but it became increasingly dopey. By the really stupid ending, it was unbearable. Clumsy directing, horrible dialogue, and forced, unconvincing acting. Waste of time. *

Savages
Another over-the-top yet shallow installment from Oliver Stone. Maybe if they had stuck with the first ending, it wouldn’t have seemed so contrived, but the second ending, attached purely for audience approval, undermined what tiny credibility the narrative had. Stone gets worse with each succeeding movie. *
