The Interview

Director: Evan Goldberg and Seth Rogen

IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2788710/

Review: Has some genuinely funny moments, particularly in its first half, but doesn't lean hard enough on the absurdity to justify some of the revelling in violence and uncomfortable line-crossing it plays with in its second half.

Watch it if: You already really like James Franco and Seth Rogen.

And if you liked: This is the End, Spies Like Us, Team America: World Police

Big Eyes

Director: Tim Burton

The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies

Director: Peter Jackson

IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2310332/
