“The Kids Are All Right”
*** 1/2 (out of 4)
Hilariously bright and culturally with-it writing make up the unshakable foundation of Lisa Cholodenko’s comedy about two teens (Mia Wasikowska and Josh Hutcherson) who seek out their sperm-donor dad (Mark Ruffalo). Julianne Moore and Annette Bening portray their moms, Jules and Nic. Ensemble performance at its finest. R. 1 hour, 46 minutes. Lisa Kennedy
“The Last Airbender”
*** (out of 4)
A mystical world where geopolitics is a four-way rivalry among nations affiliated with Air, Water, Earth and Fire. Psychically gifted citizens of each place can defend themselves by chucking quantities of their native element at adversaries. Against them stand teen warriors from the Water tribe, and Aang, a 12-year-old thawed out after a century encased in ice. He is an Avatar, capable of commanding all four elements and blowing evildoers to sparkling, satisfying smithereens. PG. 1 hour, 43 minutes. Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune
