"GIFTED" Movie Review

(GIFTED - COVER)

If there's one thing I took from this movie it's that Mckenna Grace is the next big thing in the future of Hollywood, or at least I feel like she'll be. Reminding me of Dakota Fanning when she was around the same age as Mckenna, the young star absolutely aced her role in this film. Every emotion, every moment, and every scene was easy to feel whenever Mckenna was in it, which made this a very enjoyable movie to watch. As far as the other actors and actresses in this film, there acting was pretty good as well. As you can see in the picture above, well-known actor Chris Evans (Captain America, Fantastic Four) plays the girls parental guardian, and did an exceptional job at playing it, especially add in the fact that he usually doesn't play older character in films.

The story line itself could be looked at as simple, but I actually find it rather realistic and controversial, which also makes it an interesting film. I actually found myself almost tearing up at ones of the seems, BUT CHILL, I'm still a real *****. But yes, if you're looking for a solid film with emotional, funny, and entertaining scenes, this movie is for you.

GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOLUME 2 Review

(GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOLUME 2 - COVER)

After watching this sequel to the first Guardians of the Galaxy I'll have to say that although it isn't better than the first one in my opinion, it certainly lived up to my expectations. "A FUCKING GREAT MOVIE THIS IS" is what Yoda might say! Remember I'm a Star Wars Geek. This movie is definitely one to see. The scenes are hilarious, GROOT (the tiny tree super hero) is the cutest super hero you'll ever see, and the fighting scenes are beyond kick ass. For sure one of the most fun and exciting super hero films that I've ever seen!

My Review on "LOGAN"

(LOGAN - COVER)

Out of all the XMEN and WOLVERINE films that I've seen I can easily say that LOGAN is the best one. Although it is probably the last movie you'll see with Hugh Jackman as the great Wolverine, his farewell is nothing less than extraordinary. I also am now a huge fan of Dafne Keen, the little girl who plays Wolverine's daughter in this film. She was magnificent!

My Review on "KONG: SKULL ISLAND"

(SKULL ISLAND - COVER)

I was already a huge fan of the 2005 version of King Kong, but this new one takes the W.  Not only was "KONG: SKULL ISLAND" a brilliantly written and thought out movie, but it was probably the most entertaining film that I have seen in the past year. Samuel L. Jackson is absolutely AMAZING in this film, of course stealing the show from everyone else as usual. If you're looking for an action packed, entertaining, and overall well rounded film to see, this movie is definitely for you!
