John Candy was one of the most beloved comedians of the 1980s and 1990s who had plenty of incredibly underrated movies that didnt get enough love. While the late actor died tragically young at age 43, this was not before leaving the world with some of the most iconic comedic performances ever put to the screen in classics like Planes, Trains and Automobiles and Uncle Buck. However, for every legendary Candy performance, there was another hidden gem that, despite being equally hilarious, failed to gain the same lasting legacy as his best-known work.

The best John Candy movies included acclaimed collaborations with comedy greats like Steve Martin, Bill Murray, and Mel Brooks, although lesser-known releases also paired him with the likes of Tom Hanks, Dan Aykroyd, and Richard Pryor. While some underrated movies suffered from lackluster screenplays, Candys vulnerable sincerity and likable comedic charm helped elevate them into solid comedies. There...

In a joint press conference with Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy at the White House on Tuesday afternoon, President Donald Trump mistakenly and repeatedly referred to his Spanish counterpart as “Mr. President.”

Over at The Wrap, Alonso Duralde is similarly favorable in his review:

“‘Shin Godzilla’ feels very much like a post-9/11 movie that ventures into nearly ‘Veep’-ian levels of political satire…And when Godzilla does his thing, it’s always terrifying — the destruction here is chillingly realistic and far removed from the crumbling cardboard skyscrapers of yore.

Warner Bros. Pictures delivered their new action/thriller movie, "Point Break," into theaters today, December 25th, 2015, and the reviews are in from just a few of the major, top movie critics.

Tom Russo from the Boston Globe, gave it a less than stellar 63 score, stating: "For all the adrenalizing positives in this reworked Point Break, inadvertent silliness remains."
