Oh man. I was SOOOOO excited to see this movie.

Denzel and Mark together in one movie!!!!

WORST movie almost ever, but pretty close. The story was so horrible it was laughable. The script was a mess and the action was so unbelievably bad. EVERYONE is the bad guy in this movie. There is no one and nothing to root for. Just BAD!!

BOOOO!

Umm what more do I need to say other than Hugh Jackman gets pretty naked in this one?

OK a little more.

This movie was AMAZEBALLS!! It was more backstory on Wolverine, as if he weren’t awesome enough already, and one of the best action movies I have EVER seen.

It was non-stop action and real vulnerability from Wolverine that makes you love him even more. Hugh Jackman doesn’t disappoint at ALL and the story is excellent!

OK, full disclosure, I only saw this movie because Kristin Wiig is one of my all time hero’s so I really didn’t even care what it was about I was going to see it anyway.

But once again she showed why she is #1. This movie was wonderful and poignant. A touching family tale about deceit and  disappointment. This movie was funny and sad and made me reflect on my own life and realize that I have it pretty damn good. My family may be as crazy as hers but I have it pretty good.

This was a fantastic sequel!

I was a bit worried on how they would handle a follow up to the BRILLIANCE that was RED but they did it with ease. The cast was brilliant, especially Anthony Hopkins. He just brought it all to this role and you could tell he was just having the most fun.

There were twists and turns and so much humor. I LOVED this movie and had the best time watching it! I know you will too!

YES!!!! This movie was tremendous. A rocking ride through a special effects wonder. This movie has it all, Aliens, Robots, the Apocalypse, HOT HOT HOT men and comedy. It was fun and fun to watch.

This is what Battleship should have been. I know many people looked at the trailer for this and thought that it was going to be a disaster but it actually has a very good story line and CGI to back up the hype. It was scary and exciting and fun for both me and my husband. Definitely a PERFECT date movie!!

I Love LOVE LOVED this movie. I loved every moment of it.

A true coming of age family story that shows how being yourself is always the winning formula. Whether that is with new people or your parents. It made me laugh and cry and fall in love with being alive and being me.

PLEASE go see this movie. It will make life WONDERFUL!

Dear Johnny Depp UGH!

Really Johnny? REALLY? This movie was a rehash of a rehash of your Captain Jack character in a different getup. The story was HORRIBLE and jumbled and incoherent. I am not a Native American, I don’t have that privilege, but this character was so racist, so inappropriate that I was angry for them.

Also Disney, REALLY? THIS is the way you want to portray the Lone Ranger? As a whiny, wimp who can’t decide what is right at all? The Lone Ranger is as American as Uncle Sam and he was almost wimpier than Anakin Skywalker in the horrific Star Wars Episodes I-III.

This should have been called The WIMPY Ranger. Barf! WORST movie I saw all year!

I went with my boys to see Three of the big movies for the summer.

Monsters University, Turbo and Despicable Me 2.

Monsters U was a MAJOR disappointment. PIXAR took a beloved character, Sully, and reduced him down to the A-Typical Jock jerk. So sad. I hated that. And the story was stale and not that funny. My boys however LOVED it.

Turbo was a ridiculous jaunt into the absurd where a snail who gains turbo power by falling into a nitro charged illegal street racer and then racing actual formula 1 drivers and winning was a mess of racial stereotypes mixed with a brother story on two fronts. Too jumbled for me but again my boys LOVED it.

Despicable Me 2 was funny and a really good follow up to the first movie. It was entertaining and very well done. The love story aspect wasn’t over or under done and the humor was good. And yes my boys LOVED it.

Well this movie was exactly what I thought it was. A flag twirler saving the world.

This movie was so predictable. The SECOND that I saw Channing Tatum’s “Daughter” in the movie and that he had missed her talent show and her talent was “Flag Twirling” I knew immediately that she and her talent would save the day and she did.

The action was decent and the effects were good. But otherwise a snooze fest highlighted by witty banter and Channing Tatum.

I didn’t read the book. My sister did. She said that it was TOTALLY different than the book but in a good way.

I really LOVED this movie. I am NOT  a zombie/horror movie person at ALL. It is rare that you will see me review one on here. It has to take something really special to make me go to one.

And YES that something special was Brad Pitt. Duh. That is why my mom went too. He was so good in this movie and I thought that the approach to the Zombie genre was new and refreshing. Finally a REASON that people are zombies that makes sense and how to handle it. The way this one ends I can see a sequel for sure. I hope they make it!
