“By Any Means” (Paramount) is a morally defective fact-based drama that not only rejects Jesus’ teaching on the proper response to wrongful aggression but explicitly mocks it. Viewers of faith should, accordingly, shun the film.

As its title suggests, the comedy “Coyote vs. Acme” (Ketchup Entertainment), which blends live action with animation, concerns a legal case.
