This action fantasy, starr<strong>in</strong>g V<strong>in</strong> Diesel as an<br />
immortal who protects the world from witches,<br />
doesn’t work as campy escapism or as a guilty<br />
pleasure. It’s just deadly and dreadful, loud and<br />

dumb. Sequences of fantasy violence and frighten<strong>in</strong>g<br />

A CGI, 3-D feature about Charlie Brown and his<br />

Spectre (PG-13)<br />
The 24th James Bond film is solidly <strong>in</strong> the middle<br />
of the all-time rank<strong>in</strong>gs, which means it’s still a slick,<br />
beautifully photographed, action-packed, <strong>in</strong>ternational<br />
thriller with a number of ludicrously enterta<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g<br />
set pieces. Daniel Craig rema<strong>in</strong>s a tightly<br />
coiled, deadpan funny 007, and as the sadistic villa<strong>in</strong>,<br />
Christoph Waltz is wonderfully <strong>in</strong>sane. Intense<br />
sequences of action and violence, some disturb<strong>in</strong>g<br />
