After David Kim (John Cho)'s 16-year-old daughter goes missing, a local investigation is opened and a detective is assigned to the case. But 37 hours later and without a single lead, David decides to search the one place no one has looked yet, where all secrets are kept today: his daughter's laptop. In a hyper-modern thriller told via the technology devices we use every day to communicate, David must trace his daughter's digital footprints before she disappears forever.
I never in a million years thought that this movie would be as good and as enjoyable as it was. I expected it to be another one of those desktop computer movies where they are using technology and social media to tell a story instead of actually filming it. It was in fact one of those kinds of movie but this was by far and away the best one that has ever been made. The movie did such a good job of continuing to build the desperation and the mystery with very well timed twists and turns.
I would definitely recommend people checking this movie out. Never in a million years expected to be saying that going in but this was a really well done movie.
Rachel Chu is happy to accompany her longtime boyfriend, Nick, to his best friend's wedding in Singapore. She's also surprised to learn that Nick's family is extremely wealthy and he's considered one of the country's most eligible bachelors. Thrust into the spotlight, Rachel must now contend with jealous socialites, quirky relatives and something far, far worse -- Nick's disapproving mother.
This was best described by my friend as it being like seven Hallmark movies rolled into one. That is completely accurate. There a couple different stories in the family that all played out the exact way you knew they would but there were enough laughs and enough heart strings pulled that you end up enjoying the movie even though it is so predictable.
I would recommend people checking this out. Its not a must see by any means but it is definitely an enjoyable watch for all.
KIN, a pulse-pounding crime thriller with a sci-fi twist, is the story of an unexpected hero destined for greatness.
A deep-sea submersible—part of an international undersea observation program—has been attacked by a massive creature, previously thought to be extinct, and now lies disabled at the bottom of the deepest trench in the Pacific…with its crew trapped inside. With time running out, expert deep sea rescue diver Jonas Taylor (Jason Statham) is recruited by a visionary Chinese oceanographer (Winston Chao), against the wishes of his daughter Suyin (Li Bingbing), to save the crew—and the ocean itself—from this unstoppable threat: a pre-historic 75-foot-long shark known as the Megalodon. What no one could have imagined is that, years before, Taylor had encountered this same terrifying creature. Now, teamed with Suyin, he must confront his fears and risk his own life to save everyone trapped below.
This movie was EXACTLY what I had been hoping for. Totally formula and super cheesy at times but lots of moments that made you jump and get tense even though you pretty much knew what was going to happen. This was the perfect movie to just go, turn your brain off and enjoy the break from the real world for a while.
I would absolutely recommend this movie to people. It is a very enjoyable guilty pleasure type of film that works in terms of knowing exactly what to expect and avoiding disappointment and what not.
In a visceral modern thriller from the director of Lone Survivor, Mark Wahlberg stars as James Silva, an operative of the CIA's most highly-prized and least-understood unit. Aided by a top-secret tactical command team, Silva must retrieve and transport an asset who holds life-threatening information to Mile 22 for extraction before the enemy closes in.
This was a very enjoyable and well paced action movie. They wasted no time getting to the point with lots of tactical command ops action. The character were quickly established and then they just stepped on the gas and didn't lead up for a perfect 90 minute running time. At no point did the movie drag or was there lulls in the action. This could easily become a pretty enjoyable franchise.
I would definitely recommend people checking this one out. This is the perfect end of summer movie to just go and enjoy the ride.
Elastigirl springs into action to save the day, while Mr. Incredible faces his greatest challenge yet -- taking care of the problems of his three children.
FINALLY!!!! I feel like I've been waiting for this movie forever and it did not disappoint. It literally started right where the original left off and it was like 14 years hadn't passed. The audience was so into the movie and cheering when favorite characters returned and what not. Jack Jack clearly stole every scene he was in and the combo of him with Edna Mode might be one of the funniest things Disney has ever done.
I absolutely recommend everyone checking out the return of The Incredibles. Pixar doesn't do bad movies (except for Cars 2) and this is no different. So glad that they are back.
From visionary filmmaker Spike Lee comes the incredible true story of an American hero. It’s the early 1970s, and Ron Stallworth (John David Washington) is the first African-American detective to serve in the Colorado Springs Police Department. Determined to make a name for himself, Stallworth bravely sets out on a dangerous mission: infiltrate and expose the Ku Klux Klan. The young detective soon recruits a more seasoned colleague, Flip Zimmerman (Adam Driver), into the undercover investigation of a lifetime. Together, they team up to take down the extremist hate group as the organization aims to sanitize its violent rhetoric to appeal to the mainstream.
Christopher Robin -- now a family man living in London -- receives a surprise visit from his old childhood pal, Winnie-the-Pooh. With Christopher's help, Pooh embarks on a journey to find his friends -- Tigger, Eeyore, Owl, Piglet, Rabbit, Kanga and Roo. Once reunited, the lovable bear and the gang travel to the big city to help Christopher rediscover the joy of life.
This was an extremely cute and very enjoyable telling of Christopher Robin as an adult and doing what he thinks is right for his family but forgetting about his inner child in order to do so. This movie had lots of excellent family related layers throughout it and the Winnie The Pooh characters were great but only involved when they had to be to move the story along. I did not have very high hopes for this movie and was very pleasantly surprised.
I would definitely recommend people checking this out but the one really weird thing is that this movie really isn't for younger children. Even though it has the Winnie The Pooh characters they are not in the movie nearly enough to keep young ones entertained and the adults end up enjoying this movie more than them.
Audrey and Morgan are best friends who unwittingly become entangled in an international conspiracy when one of the women discovers the boyfriend who dumped her was actually a spy.
This is one of those "why" movies. It was an okay watch and had some pretty good laughs. I'm a fan of both of the leads. But why was this made? Was the world needing this movie? What did this movie really have to offer except for the few laughs? The story was dead in the water like 10 minutes in. The action was very run of the mill. The laughs - like I said - were good but even most of those were forced. I just expected something better, funnier and most importantly something that mattered more. I will remember none of this movie within a week.
I wouldn't really recommend that anyone bother with this movie. It's pretty much a big waste of time and money and you can just wait to catch the few laughs when it shows up on tv or something.
It seems that all the major superheroes out there are starring in their own movies -- all but the Teen Titans. Robin is bound and determined to remedy that situation by becoming a star instead of a sidekick. With a few madcap ideas and a song in their hearts, the Teen Titans head to Hollywood to fulfill their dreams. Things soon go awry, however, when a supervillain plans to take over the planet -- putting the very fate of the young heroes on the line.
I can't believe how beyond funny this movie was. Like REALLY funny and made fun of so much pop culture and comic book stuff. I was in no rush to see this in theaters and was hoping it would show up online. I even let it pass and didn't make it a nieces day like most animated movies. And I shockingly now wish that I would have because this was a really enjoyable movie that we all would have laughed at so much.
I would absolutely recommend people checking this out. This is legitimately one of the better things that DC has churned out movie wise out of all of their stuff.
In a small town in Massachusetts, a group of friends, fascinated by the internet lore of the Slender Man, attempt to prove that he doesn't actually exist - until one of them mysteriously goes missing.
Wow. This was garbage. Like really garbage. Not even like cheap thrills or creepy images. Overall so massively boring in every way. I'm trying to think of one positive thing to say about it but I've got nothing. Nothing at all.
I would not recommend anyone bothering with this. It is a total waste of time and money and not even worth it for small scares because there were none of them.
Imprisoned by an adult world that now fears everyone under 18, a group of teens form a resistance group to fight back and reclaim control of their future.
This movie started out pretty good. I liked the premise and everything but about halfway through it massively lost its way and you could tell that this movie was literally just for those that had read the young adult novels it was based on. The movie very much started feeling like a set up for a movie franchise instead of a stand alone movie and I pretty much lost interest knowing full well that this movie would probably end up the way of The Golden Compass or Divergent and that it would never do well enough to warrant the sequels or completion of the book series that again - I was not familiar with.
I wouldn't really recommend anyone who has not read the books bothering with this. They were not very well done in terms of being stand alone movies for the regular movie goer not familiar with the book material.
