When the matriarch of the Graham family passes away, her daughter's family begins to unravel cryptic and increasingly terrifying secrets about their ancestry.
Holy cow!!!! What a creepy ass movie that I was completely not expecting. I figured that this would be an artsy psychological thriller - which it definitely was. But it was done so well (and lets be honest - that is beyond difficult to do nowadays) that I was looking through my fingers at numerous times. There were 4-5 points in this movie where the acting or the scenes will pretty much be etched in my memory forever. It was a very jarring watch due to the acting and the filming style. The camera work in this was AMAZING and made the movie even creepier. This movie is a must see for anyone interested in filmmaking.
I would definitely recommend people checking this movie out. It was an excellent scary movie. One of the better ones I've seen in a long time.
A small group of former classmates organize an elaborate, annual game of tag that requires some to travel all over the country.
This movie sounds silly as hell and even though it honestly was - it definitely was one of the funniest movies of the year and had A LOT of heart to it as well. The fact that this is a true story made this even better/funnier. The levels that these friends went to were hilarious and the casting was perfect. All of them played so well off of each other.
I would absolutely recommend people checking this out. It is funny as hell and is an excellent movie about getting older and friendship.
Tami Oldham and Richard Sharp couldn't anticipate that they would be sailing directly into one of the most catastrophic hurricanes in recorded history. In the aftermath of the storm, Tami awakens to find Richard badly injured and their boat in ruins. With no hope of rescue, Tami must now find the strength and determination to save herself and the only man she has ever loved.
This was a pretty decent watch. It's told in such a way between post storm survival and leading up to the storm that you really get hooked by the journey and the mental curveball really hits home.
I would kind of recommend peeps checking this out. It's not a must see by any means but it is a decent watch if you were interested.
Wisecracking mercenary Deadpool joins forces with three mutants -- Bedlam, Shatterstar and Domino -- to protect a boy from the all-powerful Cable.
I was a little bit worried about a sequel to this. Would they be able to catch the wildly mature and inapporpriate magic from the original or would this be a mailed in sequel? I was beyond surprised with how fresh and good this was. Honestly - I think this one was actually funnier than the first one. The pop culture references and music . . . . . . the knocking other Marvel characters comments . . . . . . the sight gags . . . . . . I laughed pretty much from beginning to end on this one. The perfect casting continued with Brolin as Cable. He was a favorite of mine in the comics when I was a kid and I thought he was brought perfectly to the screen. And the chemistry between Brolin and Reynolds is awesome.
I would absolutely recommend peeps checking this out. It's an extremely fun watch and will be viewed repeatedly by me no doubt.
D.C. is the crackpot owner of Action Point -- a low-rent, out-of-control amusement park where the rides are designed with minimum safety for maximum fun. Just as his estranged daughter Boogie comes to visit, a corporate mega-park opens nearby and jeopardizes the future of Action Point. To save his beloved park and his relationship with Boogie, D.C. and his loony crew of misfits must risk everything to pull out all the stops and save the day.
Wow! This was soooooooooo bad. Like I expected garbage with some laughs at stupid stunts Jackass style but this was even worse than expected. Even the stunts were lame. I couldnt even make it through the movie and pulled the plug after an hour. They tried to give it a story when there is zero chance of anyone caring.
I wouldn't recommend anyone bothering with this. Ever. It's total garbage.
Iron Man, Thor, the Hulk and the rest of the Avengers unite to battle their most powerful enemy yet -- the evil Thanos. On a mission to collect all six Infinity Stones, Thanos plans to use the artifacts to inflict his twisted will on reality. The fate of the planet and existence itself has never been more uncertain as everything the Avengers have fought for has led up to this moment.
WOW!!! I really would like the Russo Brothers to direct ever comic book movie from this point forward. These guys are the best in the game and this movie is right up there with The Winter Soldier and Civil War as my favorite Marvel Universe movies. This one also reaches that crazy level of the first Avengers in terms of having sky high expectations and managing to blow them out of the water and exceed them masterfully. They managed to juggle all of these characters with awesome humor, excellent action, perfect pacing and introducing Thanos who clearly is the best villain in the Marvel movies to date. I can't go into too much details because I wouldn't want to spoil anything but all I will say is that they so masterfully kept you on the edge of your seat emotionally and did such a good job with all the different characters interacting with each other.
I would absolutely recommend everyone checking this out. It's another shining example of how Marvel's master plan really is the greatest thing not named Star Wars to happen to movie watching fandom.
When her husband suddenly dumps her, longtime and dedicated housewife Deanna turns regret into reset by going back to college. Unfortunately, Deanna winds up at the same school as her less-than-thrilled daughter. Plunging headlong into the campus experience, the outspoken new student soon begins a journey of self-discovery while fully embracing all of the fun, freedom and frat boys that she can handle.
Let me preface my review by saying that I love Melissa McCarthy. There is something about her that I just find absolutely hilarious. That being said - even my enjoyment of her was not necessarily enough to carry this movie alone and that really was all that it had. Outside of her talents and Maya Rudolph providing some funny but sporadic laughs, this movie ends up being just kind of there. Honestly, it could have been so much funnier than it was. I'm not saying it's bad because there are some very good laughs but not enough and you feel the movie dragging even though its really not that long.
I would sort of recommend people checking this out. It's not a must see by any means. You could wait and see this due to the not high enough level of laughs contained within it.
Shaun Russell takes her son and daughter on a weekend getaway to her late father's secluded, high-tech vacation home in the countryside. The family soon gets an unwelcome surprise when four men break into the house to find hidden money. After managing to escape, Shaun must now figure out a way to turn the tables on the desperate thieves and save her captive children.
This could literally be the definition of if you saw the trailer than you saw the movie. It's literally an expanded version of it and there is nothing that happened in this movie that you either didn't know was going to or didn't feel like you had already seen in the commercial. It was basically just sit there and watch it play out . . . . . a little bit longer. There literally isn't even anything else to say about it.
I would not recomomend anyone bothering with this. It's not necessarily a bad watch just a really big waste of time because you can watch the two minute trailer and give the same review that I just did.
In a splashy new twist, Overboard focuses on Leonardo (EUGENIO DERBEZ), a selfish, spoiled, rich playboy from Mexico's richest family and Kate (ANNA FARIS), a working class single mom of three hired to clean Leonardo's luxury yacht. After unjustly firing Kate and refusing to pay her, Leonardo falls overboard when partying too hard and wakes up on the Oregon coast with amnesia. Kate shows up at the hospital and, to get payback, convinces Leonardo he is her husband and puts him to work - for the first time in his life. At first miserable and inept, Leonardo slowly settles in. Eventually he earns the respect of his new "family" and co-workers. But, with Leonardo's billionaire family hot on their trail and the possibility of his memory returning at any moment, will their new family last or will Leonardo finally put the clues together and leave them for good?
I loved the original Overboard. That was such a guilty pleasure movie that I used to watch over and over again. But what made that awesome was the obvious chemistry between Goldie Hawn & Kurt Russell. This movie was massively missing that. Plus what was funny back then is extremely lame and mailed in now. The movie definitely had its funny or cutesy moments but not enough.
I wouldn't really recommend peeps checking this out. It's a not needed and nowhere near good enough remake.
From filmmaker Steven Spielberg comes the science fiction action adventure Ready Player One, based on Ernest Cline’s bestseller of the same name. The film is set in 2045, with the world on the brink of chaos and collapse. But the people have found salvation in the OASIS, an expansive virtual reality universe created by the brilliant and eccentric James Halliday (Mark Rylance). When Halliday dies, he leaves his immense fortune to the first person to find a digital Easter egg he has hidden somewhere in the OASIS, sparking a contest that grips the entire world. When an unlikely young hero named Wade Watts (Tye Sheridan) decides to join the contest, he is hurled into a breakneck, reality- bending treasure hunt through a fantastical universe of mystery, discovery and danger.
I had read this book and LOVED it. Could not have been more excited to see the movie if I tried. Spielberg directing a movie like this again finally? Where do I sign!?! There were MANY changes made from the book. Normally this would royally set me off disappointment wise. However, these changes majorly worked movie wise and both of them equally awesome. This movie was basically a pop culture fan's dream.
I absolutely recommend people checking this out. This was old school Spielberg at his best. It was a very fun popcorn movie.
Primatologist Davis Okoye (Johnson), a man who keeps people at a distance, shares an unshakable bond with George, the extraordinarily intelligent, silverback gorilla who has been in his care since birth. But a rogue genetic experiment gone awry transforms this gentle ape into a raging monster. To make matters worse, it’s soon discovered there are other similarly altered alpha predators. As these newly created monsters tear across North America, destroying everything in their path, Okoye teams with a discredited genetic engineer to secure an antidote, fighting his way through an ever-changing battlefield, not only to half a global catastrophe but to save the fearsome creature that was once his friend.
This was a movie straight from the early 90s. Like an Arnold Schwarzenegger or Sylvester Stallone brainless popcorn flick with overdone chaos/effects and the most massive overacting possible. I would have loved this movie . . . . . . . . when I was like 15 years old. Now it's just something to shake my head and scoff at pretty much. Even though I love The Rock so much.
I wouldnt recommend anyone bothering with this. There were some good moments with The Rock and the ape being friends but that really was it. Outside of that it was over the top junk and you pretty much saw the movie by seeing the trailer.
A woman who struggles with feelings of insecurity and inadequacy on a daily basis wakes from a fall believing she is suddenly the most beautiful and capable woman on the planet. With this newfound confidence, she is empowered to live her life fearlessly and flawlessly, but what will happen when she realizes her appearance never changed?
This was a pretty formula watch. You saw the trailer . . . . you saw the movie. I thought that it would be funnier and raunchier than it was based on Schumer's previous outings so that was a little disappointing. It wasn't really a bad movie. It just went more for cutesy than funny and was not really what I was expecting.
I wouldn't recommend anyone rushing out to see this. It's not a must see by any means and would probably be a more enjoyable watch waiting for it to show up on demand or streaming it instead.
Lucy Hale and Tyler Posey lead the cast of Truth or Dare, a supernatural thriller from Blumhouse Productions ("Happy Death Day," "Get Out," "Split"). A harmless game of "Truth or Dare" among friends turns deadly when someone-or something-begins to punish those who tell a lie-or refuse the dare.
This was a somewhat decent scary movie that went on a little too long. The movie started off well and was pretty good while they were trying to figure out what was happening. But it took a little too long to get there and dragged for a while before finally picking up again towards the end.
I would still recommend people checking this out. It was a better than decent watch for a scary movie.
