Tom Cruise running away from aliens. You don’t need to make a movie more complicated than that. With a high critic score, but a relatively low audience score, viewers weren’t quite as enthused about this remake. We try to launch a full scale invasion on anything nice to say about War of the Worlds.

What does the word ‘quirky’ mean to you? To Hollywood, quirky means indie film. The team behind Napoleon Dynamite present the spiritual successor: Gentlemen Broncos. It was so poorly received, its wide release was cancelled. We see if we can find anything nice to say.

Sometimes, you have a movie that you just have expectations that are off the charts. Well, I had high hopes fore The Huntsman: Winter’s War that it couldn’t possibly hope to meet, especially after the performance of Snow White and The Huntsman. I try to learn to love it despite its flaws in this week’s Anything Nice to Say.

Anything Nice to Say: National Treasure

For years, the world had no idea that the founding of America wasn’t based on principles, but was actually just a bunch of dude’s burying treasure. In this Jerry Bruckheimer-produced movie, we run through real and apocryphal US history. What started out as a heist movie turned unto a treasure hunt.

Can we hunt down anything nice to say about National Treasure?

Is Vin Diesel a box office draw? He’s mostly known for popcorn movies, so it’s no surprise the critics didn’t like The Last Witch Hunter. We see if we can find anything nice to say about this D&D inspired passion project.

After years of success, Pixar couldn’t loose. Success spawned success. Inside Out was the seventh highest grossing film of 2015. But, in that same year, Pixar faced a what-if question they’d never tackled before: what if one of their films lost money? We try to find anything nice to say about Pixar’s The Good Dinosaur.
