While "Pearl" may not be lauded as being as effective as its predecessor, it succeeds in delivering an entertaining look at the origin of its titular character.

Matt Sobel’s remake of "Goodnight Mommy," starring Naomi Watts falls very much in the column of why bother.

"Clerks III" is no masterpiece, but Kevin Smith's trilogy-capper is told with heart and surprising emotion, making this an installment that should satisfy fans.
