I was expecting this to be another "Lost in Space" type of movie similar to Gravity, but I was pleasantly surprised. The entire cast was excellent, and so was the plot. I really enjoyed the special effects and the various scenes with Matt Damon creating his videography.

Johnny Depp is excellent as infamous gangster Jimmy "Whitey" Bulger. It's difficult to understand how such a family man could also be such a cold blooded heartless killer but Depp portrays the character flawlessly.

This movie could've been so much better. The ending was extremely disappointing to say the least, and the storyline was lacking. The special effects were great but this time Marvel deviated too much from the comic books. The only reason I bought this movie is because I have every other Marvel film.

I own Lego Batman 1 as well as Lego Batman 2, and the 3rd edition to the series does not disappoint. The dialogue is still cheesy at times, but the graphics have improved and so have the suits. This is a must have for any Lego videogame or Batman fan.

Jackson, leads this action-packed spy-thriller directed by Matthew Vaughn (X-Men First Class).

First of all, Samuel L. Jackson was the perfect villain. This movie is like Mission Impossible & James Bond all tied into one. The fight sequence in the church is the craziest thing I've seen in a long long time. Mark Hamil (Luke Skywalker) even has a small role.

This movie was a major upgrade from Terminator Salvation as well as T3. I love how they tied the first two movies together bringing everything full circle. I especially love the nano Terminator.

This is the best Disney movie I've seen in a long time. I assumed it was strictly for kids, but I was absolutely wrong. It's a great family movie that's fun for everyone.

Jurassic World was definitely as good as the original. The plot was well thought out & the special effects were high quality as expected. The "Indominous Rex" & the Raptors were insane. This film is absolutely worth adding to the collection.

It was difficult for me to figure out was this a prequel to the original film, a continuation, or simply an adaptation because it starts mid thought without any explanation. The plot was all over the place, but All-in-all once it got going, the special effects & fight sequences were absolutely amazing. I just hope they tie everything together in the next film.

This is the best Disney live action adaptation since Malefacent. It's a must have for any Disney movie collector & enjoyable for both children & adults.
