Yea it's somewhat disappointing. Maybe I was expecting too much but yea.
Though that Hulk and Iron Man fight was pretty awesome though.

I loved it, the opening battle scene was pretty awesome, and I loved the twins.

The Hulk and Iron man scene was tops, "Go to sleep" boom boom boom boom, :D

The look on thors face when captain America moved his hammer slightly was priceless, lol.
 
SPY.
Good light hearted spy spoof, probably overdid the bad language a bit.
Aside from that, a lot of laughs, Jason Strathan is a bit of a Maxwell Smart' sort of character. Melissa McCarthy plays a great lead role.

Good fun movie, but I would not take the kids, the language and the spy taking penis selfies, is probably a bit much for the kids.:D

yea, go to sleep, haha.
I was half expecting that he'd pull back and punch etc., but that was pretty clever.

It's a good movie with lots of excellent set pieces, just feel incomplete somehow. I think I was expecting Ultron to do more, and a bit more "realism" and damage to the Avengers - maybe kill one of them off or something (beside QuickSilver, which no body cares much about).
 
San Andreas

It is a bit of a 'B' grade story line, great American hero saves all and sundry, while wilfully damaging everyone's property. Same old, same old.

However I thought it was money well spent, for the special effects, absolutely amazing.:eek:

One of those movies, that has to be seen, on the BIG screen. :xyxthumbs
 
TERMINATOR GENYSIS


Went last night instead of watching violence on QANDA.

Very schmick CGI and Arnie manages to maintain a central role as Sarah's batman. Good laughs with his facial expressions (no spoilers here). Jai Courtney is starting to hit his straps as a lead.

It's a bit hard to poke the implausibility stick at the flick, because the storyline is ridiculous anyway, but there are still questions why invulnerable beings insist on sending lesser mortals to do a job they handle in a heartbeat.
 
You absolutely must see Midnight in Paris...
and The Artist,
both epic and movies you can watch over and over again.
 
The 100 Foot Journey
A pleasant movie about a displaced Indian that opens a restaurant in a french village opposite an acclaimed restaurant & the culinary war that erupts. For a quiet relaxing night in.

The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel
I thought this might be a sad sequel but enjoyed it. If you liked the first you'll like the second.

Big Game

Samuel L Jackson as US President whose air force one got shot down over some mountain; rescued by some Finnish kid on a hunting ritual to prove his manhood.

Kinda like Cliffhanger meet Air Force One... except it's really really bad. Really bad. Bad on every level.
 
JURASSIC WORLD

It is along the same line as Jurassic Park, just bigger dinosaurs and better special effects.

Story line very shallow, but worth watching on the big screen for the visual side.

Sounds like a challenge luutzu, I shall give it a go.

I just purchased two movies for sh!7z and giggles:- "Invaders From Mars" and "It Came From Outer Space"
 
Ant-Man,

it was actually a pretty good movie, great mix of action scenes, some unexpected tie in's to other Marvel stories, lots of funny one liners and gags, I want to see this again.

Pretty funny movie. A good classic heist story with some superpower involve.

That wasp was awesome.


A question about the physics of it: How could Ant-Man be so strong once he goes ant size? So ants are the strongest since they could lift 8 times their body weight etc., so the suit and Pym molecule resize a man down to an ant, thereby multiplying his man-size strength multiple times...

But then if ant-man is still human strength/weight multiple, then wouldn't ant-man be as heavy as a man? So not able to fly or ride another ant?

------

The Last Man on Earth

Comedy. TV series.

Best not to think too much. Just accept the world kinda pick up and leave the characters alone and just enjoy the situational comedy skits.
 
Mission Impossible

Very similar to the earlier ones, unbelievably unbelievable, but great special effects.:D

The bike chase scene, was brilliant.IMO

He maintains his strength because when he shrinks, the shrinking is achieved by reducing the empty space in the atoms that make up the molecules of his body, so yes he should be the same weight, So I am not sure how he could ride Antony, maybe Antony was super strong, lol
