Fast and the Furious – Furious 7 Movie Review
I have been waiting on pins and needles for this movie. I am undeniably Paul Walker’s biggest fan. (Based on an extensive poll I conducted during lunch today with my daughter.) I had absolutely no idea how they were going to proceed with his last film. They didn’t disappoint me. It was tastefully done;…

Movie Review – John Wick 1
I loved the movie John Wick; it was violent without being gory. What I liked most about the movie was the choreography of the action scenes. I’ve seen my share of action movies and I must say that the action in John Wick is top notch. That shouldn’t come as a surprise, because the directors…

Movie Review – LUCY
—
“Lucy” is like two movies mashed together: one is enjoyable and explores interesting questions; the other is lame and hyper-violent. Rating this movie is a question of how to balance these two. Where this movie really fails is in it’s brevity. Not including the credits it’s only an hour and twenty-two minutes long. That’s far…

Movie Review – 22 Jump Street
I found a lot to love and a lot to dislike about this sequel. What’s to love? Well, it’s still really funny. There are some laugh out loud moments and then there are some throw your head back and cackle moments. Who doesn’t love that? On the flip side, there were some awkward moments that…

Movie Review – Edge of Tomorrow (Live. Die. Repeat.)
I love Groundhog Day stories and I’ve been looking forward to this movie since the first time I saw the previews. I was *hoping* it would rank as one of the classic Sci-Fi movies. However, I expected it would just be a good movie that might be worth rewatching again a year from now. I…

Movie Review – Godzilla (2014) – This Godzilla Should Have Been Better
Let me say up front that I enjoyed Godzilla. The movie rolled along at a decent pace and had a few good visual scenes. And I think the creators did a decent job of bridging the classic feel of the Godzilla movies with modern movie making. That said, I thought the movie fell way short…

Movie Review – The LEGO Movie
—
Do you like Legos? Did you have any idea a movie about LEGOS would be so much fun? The Lego Movie was cute, charming and funny. There’s a great cast of voices, and lots of action. Kids will enjoy this movie, and the parents, especially dads, will be eager to get home and head for…

Movie Review – Gravity
I enjoyed Gravity, but didn’t love it. I’m not going to grade the movie on its scientific accuracy because if I did, it would get a D, at best. Instead I’ll only consider the story aspects. My biggest beef with Gravity is the character development. The movie is only 90 minutes long, which doesn’t leave…

Movie Review – Riddick
—
Pitch Black is one of my favorite movies ever, and I’m a little uncertain how I feel about Riddick. First off, I can easily say that it isn’t as good as the original — but that’s a very high standard to be compared to. The best thing I can say about Riddick is that it’s…
