Post up what you have seen at the theater recently, and would you recommend it. (feel free to do shows on TV etc...)
Over the past 4-5 weeks I've been going once a week. (free popcorn Tuesdays over here)
Independence Day 2: Wasn't needed. Will Smith made #1 good, and he wasn't even present in #2. Very Similar feel to the first, with little innovation.
2.5/5 Startrek Beyond: A typical good guy vs villain feel, very predictable. Some of the special effects were top-notch and done very well. (The drone scenes of them crashing into their ship). Overall I feel like I have seen 1,000 movies just like this.
3.5/5 Tarzan: Nothing amazing, but I enjoyed it. Special effects were average, plot was average. Just overall an average film. A weird spin, (sequel to original, I believe)
3.5/5 Finding Dory: Not as good as Finding Nemo, but still a clean cut kids movie.. that was enjoyable. Very similar plot to the the first, but had good intent and meaning.
4/5 Jason Bourne: Action packed, but a typical 1man vs everyone film. Even though it kept me at the edge of my seat, it did little to actually progress the series forward. Seemed like a money grab to me, and of course they left it open for another one.
3.5/5 Sausage Party: Utterly disappointed, just seen this today. With Joan Hill, Seth Rogen, and some other big name comedians, you would expect to laugh. I laughed maybe twice, not even a full out laugh, more of a forced one. The creativity was there, but the script, and plot were just beyond awful.
1.5/5 Ben Hur: I didn't know this was a remake before seeing it, and had little to no background of the movie. With that being said, I enjoyed the plot. The movie kept me entertained from beginning to end, which many movies don't now a days. I also enjoyed the history aspect of the movie. Some of the action scenes could have used a tune up, kind of felt rushed or older technology was being used. Other than that not many complaints, this is quite the opposite to what critics are raving about. Just goes to show, don't trust critics.
4/5 Don't take my reviews to heart, just personal opinion based. Ill post up some more when I go to the show again. (Should be seeing Ben-Hur within a week or so)
