With Dawn of the Planet of the Apes coming out in a couple weeks, I thought it was time I finally saw Rise of the Planet of the Apes. The trailers to Dawn of the Planet of the Apes make it look really cool, and I was already excited for it, but now, having seen Rise of the Planet of the Apes, excited does not even begin to describe my anticipation.
Movie Thoughts
Transformers: Age of Extinction Review
Jeez, I don’t even know where to start with this eyesore. How about here: I’m sorry. I’m sorry that I spent money to go see this movie, and probably just helped make a Transformers 5.
Well, I better get into the “review” cuz that’s why I’m here…
I had seen the first Transformers, and then I caught an hour of Dark of the Moon on TNT last night. I had also seen reviews and all of the Internet videos, so I knew going in that this movie wouldn’t be good. I was just hoping I wouldn’t hate it. Mission Not-Accomplished! Guys, I honestly don’t even know where to start, so this review might seem a bit jumbled.
How to Train Your Dragon 2 Review
I was hearing all kinds of buzz regarding How to Train Your Dragon 2 about how it was the new Lion King or something, and I was babysitting today, so what else to do on an 80 degree day other than take the kids to the movies?
Before I talk about this movie, I’ll say I have not seen the first one, and the last “new” animated movie I saw was Wreck-It Ralph. How to Train Your Dragon 2 was a really good animation to get me back in the game.
Horrible Bosses Review
I’m pleased to say Horrible Bosses isn’t that horrible.
I thought the premise seemed cool, but could be used in a pretty cliché way. Luckily, it feels fresh. The premise of the movie is very simple. There are three guys played by Jason Bateman, Jason Sudeikis and Charlie Day who just hate their bosses. All three of them say they really like where they work, but their bosses just have to go. And then one night after they’ve been drinking they think, “hey, why don’t we kill our bosses?”.
Crazy, Stupid Love Review
When I turned on FX the other day at noon or so, I was pleasantly surprised with Crazy, Stupid Love (minus the obvious cover-ups on some curse words).
The gimmick that Crazy, Stupid Love goes on is telling many stories at once, but the one it ultimately centers around is Steve Carell as this guy whose wife cheats on him, then wants a divorce. So Carell gets pretty depressed but is ultimately picked back up again by ladies-man Ryan Gosling’s character, who is also a ladies-man.
