The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (2013) - Ben Stiller

I am told this hasn't been finished being edited, so I wonder what else could be in store for viewers, when the release date is on Boxing Day over here in the UK. It looked finished to me, it was entertaining, and Ben and Kristen Wiig are perfectly matched as a bit of an odd couple, in a nice way.
The David Bowie references also shined out of the otherwise average film. It was entertaining, but not something I would watch again, even if it was properly edited.

Despicable Me 2 (2013) - Pierre Coffin and Chris Renaud

I must be the one person in the world who thinks that the Minions are about as funny as a brain tumour.  Gru's bits, voiced by Steve Carell made me laugh, and re-introducing Kristen Wiig as a different character from the first movie, was a good move, as her voice perfectly suited the character. Overall, slightly better, and not saying much considering the hype, than the original.
