Jennifer's Body (2009)

 

A newly possessed high school cheerleader turns into a succubus who specializes in killing her male classmates.

A horror film wrapped up in a feminist message works both ways as genre movie and as political statement, but some male audiences might not notice.

Maltin**: "Attempt to layer horror-movie tropes onto a story of female friendship (and the roles young women inhabit) doesn't work. Written by Diablo Cody, but this teenage outsider isn't as easy to embrace as the heroine of JUNO." 

Cop Out (2010)

Jimmy's rare baseball card is robbed. Since it's his only hope to pay for his daughter's upcoming wedding, he recruits his cop partner Paul to track down the robber, a memorabilia-obsessed gangster.

Misguided buddy cop comedy-drama with bottom-of-the barrel humor (in one scene the cops even punch a small child!); hard to watch a talented crew seamlessly go down the drain.

Maltin BOMB: "Crude, needlessly overlong, excruciating cop/buddy "comedy"...Annoying music score is icing on the cake."
