GROUPON GUIDE TO CHICAGO

Movie Reviews from the Critical Couple

Jul 21, 2014

Watching movies may be one of America's most popular date-night activities, but it can also be one of the most contentious. That's where critics and real-life couple Roy and Adriane step in, putting their relationship on the line so you don't have to. They tap into an encyclopedic film knowledge rather than stereotypes—he likes rom-coms, she likes Road House—to guide other movie-going partners to the best selections Hollywood has to offer.

RATINGS: ★: Awful | ★★: Mediocre | ★★★: Good | ★★★★: Excellent

	Lucy \| ★★★ Ambitious, silly, and never dull, ''Lucy'' keeps that 10% of your brain entertained throughout.
	Transformers: Age of Extinction \| ★ 1/2 Another shameful entry in Michael Bay’s oeuvre.
	22 Jump Street \| ★★★ 1/2 Did you like the first one? Okay, you'll like the sequel.
	A Million Ways to Die in the West \| ★ 1/2 ''A Million Ways to Die in the West''? More like ''Lazing Saddles.''
	Godzilla \| ★★★ 1/2 The best movie about a 350-foot-tall lizard you’re likely to see all year.
	The Amazing Spider-Man 2 \| ★★★ Explosions, one-liners, and a silly montage set to emo music: what's not to love?
	Transcendence \| ★★ 1/2 A stylish film that tries commenting on society’s relationship with technology but gets bogged down with too many unlikeable characters.
