This movie was really fun to watch! Sure there we're many unrealistic moments. However, isn't that what movies are all about? Who wants to see reality (TV) on the big screen?
It was an action fans dream come true to see the colorful cast of super stars come together for this film! I would have liked to see more of Jet Li, but such is life (and the budget).
I was entertained, captivated, and thrilled from beginning to end. So who is going to be in part three? Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson? Vin Diesel?
I wanna know?
Yes, I recommend this movie.

This movie was just a ton of fun to watch! I'd even call it "Historical Fiction" at its best!
It was like seeing a live-action version of an awesome Japanese Anime film! The wild story, special effects, and kick butt fighting scenes made this one a real winner! Not to mention the colorful cast of characters!
If vampires make your skin crawl and heroes with integrity make your list, then this bad boy is for you!
Pros great story
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Adam Sandler and the gang keep the laughs coming in this one! It is a very funny story with a truly insane cast!
Everything was great except for the Xanax usage by one of the main characters. That wasn't too cool.
But if you are looking for a hilarious time at the movies, this one is for you!
Pros great story, great actors

You wanna discover where mankind came from? Well, Ridley Scott and friends have the answer for you! No. Seriously!
Prepare to be mesmerized by this creative and cunning flic. And guess who's jumped over to this film from "Snow White & the Huntsman"? No. Not the Twilight mamacita. I'm talkin' about Charlize Theron! So you know beauty graces the screen in this one!
The entire cast is stellar. And the visual effects and cinematography are amazing!
If you are ready to wake up the mind and have some fun, this one is the movie to see!
Pros well paced, great story, great actors, great visuals!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Two thumbs up and a middle finger to all the haters! This movie was fabulous! The filmmakers took a classic story and remade it into a contemporary masterpiece!
I'm not a fan of the Twilight films but I recognized Kristen Stewart from them. In this picture, I fell in love with her! She is incredibly beautiful, tender, and yet a heroine to be reckoned with. Charlize Theron is as wicked a queen as can be. Yet she too is gorgeous and gives a real dramatic performance. To top it all off, Chris "Thor" Hemsworth brings the might and glory to the movie!
The creatures are creatively done and the special effects are really cool too! There are moments that will just capture your heart and entertain your timeless soul!
This one was worth skipping breakfast for. It honored and respected the original tale while giving it an all new set of characters and twists and turns. It definitely delivered a lot of bang for my buck!
Pros well paced, great story, great actors, cool special effects
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Men in Black 3 is an entertaining episode in this sci-fi/action series. It's got a wacky story and really cool special effects! Will and Tommy Lee reprised their rolls with finesse and Josh Brolin was retro-hip. It would have been even better if they brought back Rosario Dawson!
This movie was like an Aircel/Malibu/Marvel comic book come to life. It had an engaging story but it focused more on the adventure than the mystery behind alien races on earth.
It ain't as dynamic as District 9 but it's still lots of fun!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Being a single guy who has never had kids, it was hard for me to connect with any of the characters in this movie. Which is no fault of the filmmakers. However, the continuous corny jokes distanced me even further!
The subject matter of pregnancy and childbirth was intriguing. And there were a few well-acted and touching moments.
J Lo. was good. Dennis Quaid was great! But what a waste of Chris Rock. They took a comic genius and turned him into a sit com actor
It is a misnomer to call this film a "comedy". "Made-For-Television Movie" would be more appropriate! (Minus the studio audience laugh track).
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Battleship was AWESOME! It was like John Carter at sea! Hey! I really enjoyed John Carter! It's not my fault that America didn't get behind that film or that Disney spent way too much money on it!
Back to Battleship, it far exceeded my expectations! The story was gripping and the characters really got me involved in the action!
Not to mention the special effects! They were off-the-chain incredible!
It was definitely worth the trip to the theater and I left the movie thoroughly entertained!
Don't quite see much of a connection to the Hasbro board game. But oh well!
What more could I ask for in an action packed block buster?!
Pros well paced
Yes, I recommend this movie.

"The Dictator" was hilarious! Sacha Baron Cohen took a villain and turned him into a regular crackpot that anybody could relate to. When it comes down to it, we are all human and often make similar Koo Koo mistakes in life.
The comedy is very well done. It was goofy, funny, and shocking at times; not unlike "Borat" and better than "Ali G". Sacha gave this flic his signature style but with a little more heart!
Along with Ben Kingsley there is an excellent supporting cast. And the soundtrack is to die for! The tunes are just as comical as the jokes!
In a time when we are fed ridiculous media that instills fear, this movie gives life a light hearted look. And even in the worst circumstances, there is always the human spirit at work.
Pros well paced, great story, great actors, very funny!
Yes, I recommend this movie.
