Film Roundup: Pixels, Paper Towns, Southpaw

Adam Sandler’s Pixels seems to be universally loathed by critics—it earned a 19 percent approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes. In the film, aliens have intercepted a time capsule that was sent into space in the ‘80’s that included footage of old video games - and they mistake it for a declaration of war. That and more on today’s film roundup.
