Will 'Folie a Deux' get dinged by its "Doesn't give you what you want" reviews? Will Michael B. Jordan be allowed to give, uh, his all in a 'Thomas Crown Affair' remake?
Chris Sanders' 'The Wild Robot' is a gorgeous and moving adventure dramedy with a superb Lupita Nyong'o performance. It's exactly what a DreamWorks Animation movie should be.
