The review of this week's box office offerings from Alice Reese starts on a high note with kind words for Jersey Boys, the Hollywood version of the successful stage play about 60's iconic musical group The Four Seasons. Clint Eastwood directs.

In the dull category were two other productions: a follow up to 2012's Think Like A Man, aptly titled, "Think Like A Man, Too," which is, according to Reese, derivative of both itself and of many other Las Vegas based fims of late; and the post-apocalyptic release, The Rover, starring Guy Pearce and Robert Pattinson, which was, as Reese indicates, "...as if they made Mad Max, but there's nobody with any energy."
