Annie
A foster kid,
who lives with her mean foster mom, sees her life change when a business tycoon
and New York mayoral candidate makes a thinly-veiled campaign move and takes
her in.
Icky stock confection taped together with fabricated
vocals and some truly atrocious acting.

Horrible Bosses 2
The three
idiots from the first film decide to start their own business until a slick
investor intervenes, leading to a kidnapping scheme.
Nasty comedy with everyone concerned visibly chagrined
at what they’ve been directed to do.

St. Vincent
A young boy
whose parents have just divorced finds an unlikely friend and mentor in the
misanthropic, bawdy, hedonistic war veteran who lives next door.
Painfully earnest and phony
mean-old-man-becomes-friendly tale. It plays more like an elongated sitcom
episode.
