The Super Mario Galaxy Movie

After Bowser's defeat in the 2023 film, his son Bowser Jr. launches a crusade to free his father from captivity, forcing Mario and friends to travel through outer space and across new galaxies to stop him.

This was the definition of a more of the same sequel.   The animation was great, you know and love the characters from the first one and the introduce new ones that you connect with too.   The story is pretty much irrelevant.   The kids love it and you love it because of being connected to it in some way for pretty much your whole life.  So just enjoy the ride.

I would recommend people checking this out.   It will be just as big as the first one if not bigger and its worth the couple of hours.

Scream 7

When a new Ghostface killer emerges in the quiet town where Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) has built a new life, her darkest fears are realized as her daughter (Isabel May) becomes the next target. Determined to protect her family, Sidney must face the horrors of her past to put an end to the bloodshed once and for all.

This was a decent entry in the franchise.  I mean let's be honest at this point they are not reinventing anything and it's really just more of the same.  It was a decent amount of nostalgia, a good enough amount of jump scares and they actually definitely upped the violence of the kills which caught me off guard.

I would recommend any fan of the franchise checking this out.  It was a decent entry and nothing to really complain about. 

You, Me & Tuscany

You, Me & Tuscany centers on Anna, an American who becomes ingratiated with an Italian family after tricking them into thinking she is marrying their son Matteo. But tensions rise when Anna begins to develop feelings for the family’s other son, Michael. 

Even thought this movie was beyond cliche and predictable in every way, it really was a very enjoyable rom-com.  The chemistry between the leads was great and the role characters that filled out the rest of the cast each brought their own stamp to the movie to make it more watchable.

I would definitely recommend people checking this out.  It was a very fun and crowd pleasing watch.

Ready Or Not 2: Here I Come

Following her bloody triumph over the Le Domas family, Grace's nightmare is far from over. Ready or Not 2: Here I Come finds Grace and her estranged sister, Faith, hunted by a new, more dangerous cabal of, elites, eager to seize the High Seat of the Satanic Council. As the game returns with new, convoluted rules overseen by a mysterious "Lawyer" (Elijah Wood), Grace must transform from victim to hunter in a desperate battle to survive another night.

This movie is pretty much just more of the first.  There was nothing added except for the sister and two people being hunted instead of one.   Same kind of dark humor, gore and chaos.   If you liked the first one I don't see why you wouldn't like it.

I would recommend it to anyone that liked the mindless gore/action of the first.  If you have not seen that I have no idea why you would go anywhere near this.

Hoppers

What if you could talk to animals and understand what they're saying? In Disney and Pixar's all-new feature film "Hoppers," scientists have discovered how to "hop" human consciousness into lifelike robotic animals, allowing people to communicate with animals as animals!

When I saw this trailer the first thought in my head was um . . . . . . . . isn't this just Avatar but for animals?  And it pretty much was but in a much more heartwarming way.   The fact that they actually acknowledged at one point might have been the biggest laugh in the whole movie.   But the movie was very funny with great characters and connections.  This felt very much like Pixar getting back to its roots instead of being a little too specific with their recent releases.

I would definitely recommend people checking this out.   It was a very enjoyable watch for both adults and the kids that they bring to it.
