Super Buddies (comes out next week)

The buddies are back and this time they're in for a galactic adventure! While my family hasn't seen the previous Disney Buddies movies, my kids quickly fell in love with the talking puppies. The movie begins with Budderball's owner, Bartleby, celebrating his 12th birthday with his friends and grandfather (John Ratzenberger). While on a treasure hunt, the puppies stumble upon some rings that give them mysterious powers. Eerily similar to some rings mentioned in the Captain Canine comics. Could this series be based on actual events? Real or not, the puppies learn some very important lessons including helping those in need despite how you feel about them, and that you don't need super powers to be a hero. While those lessons are praise worthy, Super Buddies does portray the town's sheriff as a bumbling fool and there are some references to Buddhism. There is plenty of humor and silliness that my kids enjoyed and the action kept them at the edge of their seats. While I found the movie a bit over the top, my kids enjoyed it quite a bit. I guess we'll have to catch up on the previous Buddies movies we've missed.

Struck By Lightning - A few interesting moments (and respectable actors) that mostly get lost in a muddle of smug self-importance.

The Emperor's New Groove. One of my personal favorites. It's awesome! =D

Riddick. Better than I expected. The first act is even strangely touching.

Yes! Awesome movie.

One of those few animated movies that's truly a comedy.

Batman Begins

The last movie i've seen was The Road.. Ugh, that story ♥

The last movie I watched was Star Trek: Into Darkness.

You should read the book. The movie is a fairly faithful/well-done adaptation but it doesn't quite hit as hard the gut-wrench that is that story. Cormac McCarthy is a master of using violence to suit his literary needs.

The last movie I watched was a decent portion of Dredd. I ended up falling asleep but from what I saw it was a little overblown with the visual effects, but everything else kept it simply, entertaining, and absolutely brutal.

Kick-A** 2

I really liked it. It was definitely more straight up comedy instead of the first one. Jim Carrey was great. I wished they would have used him more.

Elysium

It was good. Maybe not quite as good as district 9 but it's still nice to have a sci-fi movie with a good story.

Wedding Crashers

Eh it was ok. I really expected it to be funnier based off of the reviews and what people have told me. I thought The Internship was funnier.

Dredd, I enjoyed it, then again I also enjoyed the original too (have that on VHS)

The Hobbit. For a bunch of reasons, I had not been able to watch it until now. It's actually really good! Apparently, they're going to make two others. Hope they come out soon!

The Dark Knight

Rewatching it with my family. So good.

Get Smart,

It's hilarious!

After Earth. It was ok, the acting was a bit questionable.
