Perhaps not quite as much of a safe bet is the Mel Gibson vehicle Force of Nature. What’s the number one problem with the majority of heist movies? The distraction is not quite large enough for everyone to get in and out with time to spare. However, what if the distraction were Mother Nature herself? A hurricane is on its way and a gang of thieves is looking to get to a residential building’s safe to steal $55million. Little do they know something more terrifying than a tornado is lurking in one of the flats: a grizzled ex-cop who refuses to be evacuated played by... you guessed it. Rotten Tomatoes gives it 10%

Is this Harry Potter? No. Does it want to be? Of course. Low-fi animation The Academy of Magic may satisfy some kids’ need for cartoons in the summer, but it won't be taking home any Golden Snitches soon. IMDb gives it 3.4

Despite snapshots of dialogue more stilted than a conversation with Justin Bieber, Semper Fi doesn't actually look all that bad. Sure, everyone is a little too earnest, but the moral dilemma is a sound base camp for an ascent up Decent Story Mountain. A police officer and former Marine (Jai Courtney) must choose between loyalty to his family or the badge when his brother (Nat Wolff, also a former soldier) is sent down for 25 years. Struggling with the injustice, he decides to break him out. Will his friends help? IMDb gives it 6.1
