It’s a perfectly friendly comedy. It’s not as funny as the first film, but it is funny enough. But for some reason, it has become subject to some of the most sarcastic reviews in recent memory. Reading over a sampling of them, it is difficult to figure out why. At least audiences seem to like Blart’s latest adventure.

Which movie ________?

It’s long, loud, and overloaded with effects. What it doesn’t have is any sense of going above and beyond. Unlike some other entries in the Marvel universe, it doesn’t transcend its boundaries. Fans of the series will be pleased, but those looking in from the outside of comic-book culture will find themselves looking at their watches.

Which movie ________?

It’s a film about a scenarist worried about writing a romantic comedy script because he’s never been in love, even as he falls for someone. It’s a smart script, but it’s also completely overwritten, as every line feels like it’s been carefully crafted to be absolutely hilarious. Thankfully, the cast adds some charm to the screen, and the genuinely witty script keeps the audience laughing.

Which movie ________?

Directed by Tim Johnson, it has a bright, candy-coloured look, with a few fancy 3-D effects and some wonderfully detailed “sets.” Steve Martin voices Smek. Jennifer Lopez lends her voice to the role of Tip’s mother. The soundtrack features a number of Rihanna tunes. Anyone over 10 will see the plot twists a mile away. Kids will enjoy a goofy race of aliens called Boovs, the rainbows of colours and the music.

Which movie ________?
