Arrival

Image result for arrival poster


My Thoughts:

-    Everyone raved about this movie, and I wasn't too interested in seeing it, even though Jeremy Renner was in it. Hubby wanted to see it, so we watched it.

-    I was bored, really bored. Not a lot happened throughout the movie, and I felt like the whole movie was just a prelude to a bigger story.

-    I had a few issues with the logic. Language is not just words and vocabulary. It incorporates culture. Louise would have needed to learn the alien's culture while learning the language. Also, the alien's words might not even have a close comparison to one of our words.

-    There was no point to this movie. There wasn't really a conclusion, a lesson learned, a message, or anything. There was no action or entertainment value. I felt like I wasted my time watching this.

-    I have other complaints, but they contain spoilers.

-    The only saving grace of this movie was seeing Jeremy Renner and his awesome hair.

Avengers: Age of Ultron



My Thoughts:

-    I was really skeptical about this one, but it wasn't horrible.

-    They did a good job with Vision. His character design is pretty spot on. Him being Jarvis though.....

-    Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver were okay as well. BUT They were not experimented upon!!! They were born as mutants!!

-    The whole Hulk and Black Widow thing was awful! Gag! In fact, the Hulk was really dumb in this one. Worst Hulk portrayal ever!! I'm getting sick of what they are doing with Black Widow as well.

-    I thought Tony Stark destroyed all his suits? I guess he built more?

-    Stark and Banner did NOT create Ultron!! Hank Pym created Ultron!! 

-    The action sequences were alright. The beginning had some pretty rough CG though.

-    I was really bugged that some of the super powers were being stretched! Captain American throwing his bike!?!? Ya right! Quicksilver moving a car? HECK NO! He is fast, not super strong.

-    Hawkeye does not have a family! Gag! I enjoyed all the Renner scenes though. Dang he has nice hair!

-    James Spader was an amazing voice for Ultron! I loved that!

-    I rolled my eyes quite a few times and made grunt noises, but overall it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.

-    I LOVED the Stan Lee cameo as usual!

The Bourne Legacy




My Thoughts:

-    Yes! I only watched this because Renner is my new celebrity crush. I was not disappointed. There were lots of great Renner moments to ooh and aah and enjoy.

-    The whole story is a little confusing. I feel like the movie expected the audience to know a lot of things before watching this. It was like the middle of a story.

-    The monkey cam was annoying!

-    The action was awesome! Loved all the fighting and chasing and running across roof tops. There were some intense scenes that had me clutching the blanket on my lap.

-    While Renner is the main attraction of this film, the rest of the cast was good as well. I especially liked the leading lady. I felt scared and sorry for her.

-    The ending was really abrupt. Is there going to be another one? Were the characters safe in the end? 

-   Despite the setbacks, there was a lot to admire in this movie. It is my favorite in the Bourne series. ;)

The Avengers



My Thoughts:

-    AAAAWWWEESSSSOOOOOOMMMMEE!!!

-    Well...there were a few things I didn't like, but I'm a Marvel Comic buff, so I'm picky.

-    The SHIELD uniforms were changed, and I didn't like the design a ton.

-    Bringing all The Avengers together was so great!!  I was geekin' out!!  I LOVE LOVE LOVE that they did individual movies and then brought them together!  I wish Iron Man's movies had a better bad guy...like Mandarin, his nemesis!  Overall the movies have been really well done!  Thank the maker that Marvel took over!!!!!!!!!!

-    I didn't like Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury.  It bugged me. They cast picture perfect people for all the others, but they seriously screwed up Nick Fury.

-    There was a chick being Nick Fury's second in command.  I have no idea where that chick came from!! She stole Black Widow's job!  Black Widow is SHIELD's #2!  Everything that other chick did was Black Widow's job.  I know she was buys with other things, but they didn't have to replace her.

-    The fight scenes were fantastic!!  The CG was some of the best!!  Some of my favorite parts are where the heroes are battling each other.  SO GREAT!!  This movie had some of the best action sequences I've seen for a while. 

-    That was probably the best Hulk I've ever seen...EVER!  Out of ALL the hulk movies, this one was awesome!

-    Loki isn't an evil person.  He is the God of Mischief.  He caused a whole lot of problems, and he was a HUGE trouble maker, but he wasn't evil.

-    There were a few scenes where I thought I was going to die laughing!!!  OH MY GOSH!!  The best one was the Hulk/Loki scene.  If you've seen the movie already, you know what I'm talking about!!

-    The Stan Lee cameo was funny.

-    The creatures that came through the portal looked like Locusts to me (from Gears of War).  I think they kinda stole that design.  They didn't really say, but I think they came from the Shadow Realm.  If so, COOL!  The head honcho bad guy you see at the end...I know that face!!  I can't put a name to it right now, but I know that guy, and I'm stoked!!  There better be a 2nd Avenger movie!

-    How come Hawkeye didn't have his suit?  The purple suit with the mask.  Where was it? 

-    All the actors (minus Jackson) were phenomenal!!!!  They were born to play those roles.  They could have done better with Black Widow, but Scarlett Johansson did alright.  Robert Downey Jr. cracks me up!!

-    I could go on and on and on, but I think this is sufficient!  Overall, it was really well done!  This is a must see movie!!




p.s.   I want a Deadpool movie now!  Please Marvel!!
