42

42 is the story of the first negro baseball player Jackie Robinson who was signed to the all white national baseball team the Brooklyn Dodgers. Jackie was a pioneer in the sport and it is because of him that we have the diversity in all sports today. 42 is touching, funny, and  a completely heartwarming tribute to the man, so don't just walk to see this movie but run to see it. This movie is worth the admission, and I see an Oscar for this movie
.

I give this move 5 Stars.

Evil Dead

To start, this is not the same as the original Evil Dead that as a child scared me half to death, I couldn't go to sleep by myself for days, but this version is also scary and twisted. The graphs is on point and the story line stays somewhat the same with a few deviation. I enjoy this movie, but a little info stay to the end there is a surprise after the credits.

I give this movie 3 Stars

Olympus Has Fallen

Olympus has fallen is a action thriller movie with lots of explosion, and a plot that is very hard to conceive. A group of terrorists from north Korea has the guts to invade Washington D.C and take over the white house, with the end result of kidnapping the president and causing total devastation to USA.What happens in this film is really so overwhelming that it was hard to see our white house in that condition, but there's a silver lining in agent Mike Banning (Gerard Butler) who will stop at nothing to save the president. Gerard Butler and Morgan Freeman are a great dual and this movie will thrill you to the very end.

I give this movie 4 Stars.

Stoker

Stoker is a dark thriller with a weird twist and turns plot, this is an unsettling story of secrets and suppressed emotion. This movie drags on and on, it's very dull in some scene that leave you confused and unable to follow along with the story line. India (Mia Wasikoswka) is more like Wednesday from the Addams family with no emotions and anti social, uncle Charlie (Matthew Goode) is strange and bizarre and you don't know what his angle is and who he wants. And Evelyn (Nicole Kidman) is the unstable mom who is looking for something and she doesn't know what. I don't know why it was hard to follow maybe if you have a few shots of vodka maybe you would understand it, so watching this sober did not help.


I give this movie 2 Stars

Dark Skies is a sci-fi thriller with suspense and terror, the story-line is about the Barret family who's life is turned upside down by unexpected and unbelievable chain of events that each member are experiencing. Lacy Barret (Keri Russell) is seeing things happening in their home, unable to rationalize the weird event Lacy and her husband Daniel (Josh Hamilton) have to protect their sons from forces beyond this world. With the effects and the family dynamics you will believe this family's crazy ordeal. This is a griping and terrifying movie you will enjoy..

I give this movie 4 1/2 Stars.

Bullet To The Head

Well what can I say about BULLET TO THE HEAD, It was good not great but what can you expect from Sly Stallone. He did surprised me with his comedic attributes, I never expected his comedic timing to be on point. But Jason Momoa absolutely stole the show, he completely embraced the character as the hitman, not only was he great in the role, but his gorgeous looks will make the women swoon. The story-line was off with certain characters that was not believable like Sung Kang that keep giving info to the wrong people. But all and all you will be entertained if you don't expect to much.

I give this movie 3 Stars.
