So I have been meaning to go watch this. I adore Chloe Moretz and also post-apocalyptic stories. Of course you must go in expecting the whole big romance subplot that's typically in these. I mean it was even shown in the trailers. The whole idea of this one though really had my interest. So far I have loved every film J Blakeson has been a part of with Descent Part 2 and the Disappearance of Alice Creed. It took three writers to take on the screenplay. Susannah Grant is actually fairly well known by her movies. She has written Pocahontas, Charlotte's Web (Live Action), The Soloist, and even wrote and directed the movie Catch and Release. Now her skill is a bit of a roller coaster with some of them being great and some of them being less than average. Akiva Goldsman is way better known however by name. The only movie I have seen from him that was actually bad was Batman & Robin. Everything else I have pleasantly enjoyed. Jeff Pinkner wrote Amazing Spider-Man 2 which I really enjoyed, but was majorly disappointed with the ending. Everything else he has under his belt has yet to come out. Oh wow what a way to start it all off. Yeah yeah typical teenage angst go on. Okay that first wave was pretty intense. Oh wave two plays on my guilty pleasure of disaster flicks. Although I always find it hilarious when someone just stares at something that will clearly kill them. Well that seems like a pretty pathetic way to quarantine people. Third wave could be emotional, but it wasn't quite as exciting (I mean um intense) as the first two. Well of course there is a whole Invasion of the Body Snatchers scenario. Holy crap. That was messed up! Is it just me or does Ben Parish feel like Peeta from Hunger Games when he got corrupted? I mean they are both sickly looking with little to no joy. Children used as an army once again. I guess you can only be so original with that. I did not even realize that was Maika Monroe seeing as I'm so used to her being blonde. Look at Cassie over here perving lol. Aww that was kind of sweet of him. I like the concept of villains lighting up as green rather than the typical red. Red is my favorite color, but I'm always up for something new. I mean I kind of had a feeling that was the twist, but I didn't expect it to be all like that. That's actually pretty awesome as well as insane. Oh I did not see that twist coming! So love is basically an alien concept to aliens lol Man Chloe Moretz sure looks good in camo. Ya think seeing as he literally just said that. Well with that ending I'm going to need them to go and continue the series. I enjoyed the characters. The acting was fine. It was pretty dark through most of it which I usually appreciate with these. The romance was a little corny. I'm just glad it didn't have a lot of the focus. Overall I really enjoyed it and thought it was a fun one.

So yeah there's this. To my knowledge it's quite awful. Free Birds was awful. Can this be worse than that. The plot sounds quite ridiculous. At least it has an interesting cast. I haven't heard of anything by the director Trevor Wall. It takes four writers to come up with this. Daniel and Steven Altiere who are known for their lackluster sequels. The other two I have never heard of. The animation is kind of dumpy looking. So normally a person would be pretty confused or taken aback by a talking animal. Okay the addition of the killer whale there was random, stupid, and plain nonsense. I really don't think living in the Arctics is very practical considering. Is it necessary to add to that sign. I'm pretty sure the point is driven in from the first bit. That is just plain wrong! I don't think that should be in a kids movie. Okay that little dance thing where they joined made no sense. Is his nose flapping up and down a bit? I like how absolutely nobody notices while carrying him that he is really heavy yet we get all the moments where he sits and breaks something. Did they really just make a gay joke in a kids movie? That's very unfunny. How could nobody notice how rigged that was? Really that's such a lazy name for an operation. Buses are pretty big so I don't see how exactly that was possible. I think it would have been better without that fake out. He was actually twerking. That is not appropriate for children to think is okay. That ending makes me believe that the sequels are going to get the Air Bud treatment. Yes there are at least two sequels in the works even with how awful this was and did. The jokes are stale and sometimes a little upsetting considering the target audience. I was also bored through a lot of it and ended up doing other things before finishing it. It was pretty weak.

Natalie Dormer enough said. I have been meaning to watch this one specifically because she is in this. Also because the Suicide Forest is such an interesting topic. Too bad this is only PG-13. Hopefully that doesn't hinder it. Oh interesting it's directed by the writer of The Houses October Built. It took three writers to script this which isn't usually the best of signs. Nick Antosca is writing the upcoming Friday the 13th that is supposedly taking place in winter for once. It's the only credit for Sarah Cornwell so far. As for Ben Ketai he is fairly known in the horror genre for the sequel to 30 Days of Night and the upcoming Strangers 2. She seems way to down. I don't like depressed Natalie Dormer. That was more odd than actually scary. It must suck to have to be the one who goes looking for bodies. So the plot thickens or does it. Well I knew it was someone getting shot and not some car accident. Cars don't sound like guns. Now it's starting to get odd and slightly confusing. I'm hoping for an explanation. Let's see what happens. I guess it did. It was definitely a nice twist of events. That was a pretty good ending up until the last couple seconds. Honestly most of this was pretty boring. It was such a wonderful concept to go with so I was expecting a bit more. It is creepy though and it makes you wonder if it were real could you make it out. It's not a bad watch. It just doesn't grip you very well.

It looks like everyone returns again for this sequel. The pups are still looking a bit off as expected. Richard Rich really has lost his mind to do things like this. At least the voices make more sense this time around. Of course everything isn't as it seems. Wow it's kind of sad when they aren't good enough for their kids not to notice. Oh that's a cool little twist. Uh what does a full moon mean in that particular scenario. What a cruel group of wolves. Well what even happened right there though? In all actuality this one was also much better than the second one. Yeah sure it's still a bit childish, but it wasn't a complete waste.

Well at least Richard Rich returned to the sequel even if his previous one was extremely lackluster. Tom Kane also returns as the writer. Don't ask me why I punish myself like this. I have no actual idea. At least these are really short. Well at least you can tell the little bear is a boy this time around. It doesn't sound quite so intelligent though. I swear some of the voices absolutely do not match with the fact that some of these animals are meant to be cubs and such. Training montage ends up happening as one would expect. That father has an interesting voice. I wonder if it's real or altered like it sometimes sounds. What was with that weird children cheering dubbed sound. The voices here were pretty odd in general to be honest. The story is cute and fun. Overall I actually kind of liked this one. It's way more enjoyable than part 2 in my opinion.

I honestly can't remember much of anything from the first one. All I know is that I didn't like it. I don't like leaving things unfinished though so I saw there were multiple sequels on Netflix. So I figured why not get them out of the way. I mean they are only about the length of a TV episode. The director Richard Rich actually directed Fox and the Hound and the Black Cauldron. Both of which I absolutely loved. Anthony Bell who directed the first one is also involved though which is a bit off putting. I'm not familiar with anyone else behind the scenes here. They didn't even manage to get anyone recognizable from the first one. Looks like this series has the Air Bud syndrome. These pups look awful. The adults look much better. Lol wow all that dramatic music. Wait that was a boy bear?? Those wolves must be pretty stupid. If I saw that many bears coming I would just accept fate. That mid air hug was lame and corny. Oh lord was that ending serious? How the mighty have fallen. That was pretty bad. Not to mention so very boring. I know it's for kids, but wow they could have tried at least a little.

I've been meaning to watch this. It's a curiousity as I have seen it categorized in so many genres. The cast is quite interesting as well with Jordan Todosey, Henry Rollins, James Cade, and Steven Ogg. Interestingly enough this seems to be the only credit for Jason Krawczyk right now. Those are some rather interesting scars. Well this is certainly interesting that's for sure. He is a very interesting character. Yeah that guy doesn't seem to be taking any hints. I am really curious what his deal is. Holy crap that was messed up! Oh man I really hope everything gets explained because otherwise this movie is going to piss me off. That is quite a lot of things. It's interesting to see Steven Ogg playing in live action. Okay well whatever or whoever he is this guy is a badass. There is no lie about that. There is a bit of a darkish humor throughout that keeps you smirking throughout. Oh what a great reveal! I didn't know which way that was going. I'm glad it pretty much tells me what I wanted to know. I do wish more stuff was shown on screen given the fact that this is indeed an R rated film. An addition to the reveal. It's definitely very interesting how everything is here. Finally we get to see a nice brutal fight. Steven Ogg plays a bit crazy quite well. I mean I have a feeling I know what's going on there. That was quite a unique watch. The characters were interesting. The whole thing kept me hooked to the finish. It's a fun, unique, and different kind of film. I definitely recommend checking it out.

Bored on Netflix again. I love sharks and hotties in bikinis so I figured why not. I know it will be the typical ridiculous SyFy channel fare. I have actually seen a few movies from the director Scott Wheeler. Celebrity Sex Tape was horrible, but I liked MILF. I haven't seen anything from the writer though. Oh wow not even 2 minutes in and these guys can't act. The dialogue is frustrating as well. Seriously what in the hell?! What a stupid opening credit sequence. As expected there are tons of hotties with less than satisfying acting. Skookum is such a horrible name for monsters of any kind. These people have awful reactions to everything so far. What a bunch of unlikable and pathetic characters. That death was kind of cool until they went all goofy with it. Lord this is ridiculous as hell lol. That Sheriff has to be one of the dumbest I have seen. Well that death was actually amusing. I can't tell Syfy channel's deal sometimes. I swear they seem like they are trying to comedies, but then again some are actually scary. Why does no one ever scream when they are attacked? What's with the random bit of French dialogue there? That was pretty nonsensical and silly. How did that guy get messed up that way? That ending was so weak. Honestly other than girls in bikinis this has basically nothing good going for it.

Pros:
1. Ben Affleck rocks the role of Bruce Wayne/Batman.
2. The beginning up until a certain point is actually pretty awesome.
3. The acting is great from all which wasn't of concern.
4. Wonder Woman was perfect.
5. Jesse Eisenberg can act.
6. Batman fights like a badass.
7. Joker and Robin references.
8. For an action movie it's decent.
9. It had good moments sure.
10. It felt more like Batman's movie.

Cons:
1. Batman didn't act like Batman with his whole killing people.
2. Jesse Eisenberg played a very Jokerish Lex Luthor so I'm not sure who he was supposed to be.
3. The stupid introductions of a few of the other Justice League.
4. That doesn't look like The Flash at all!
5. David Mazouz from Gotham wasn't young Bruce.
6. Way too many dream sequences that were also edited poorly.
7. Doomsday sucked and was way too big. He actually felt like Abomination from The Hulk.
8. Superman seemed much too stocky.
9. Characters made a hell of a lot of stupid decisions.
10. Speaking of I hated them showing shots of Superman just floating there like when families are on rooftops during a flood!
10. Also how did they just randomly know certain things.
11. It's a huge step down from Man Of Steel which I really enjoyed.
12. David S. Goyer needs to stop being given writing rights sadly.
13. The ending was pretty awful.
14. I saw no need in the 3D.
15. There was some dreadful jokes here too.

I wasn't expecting much, but I was hoping to be surprised. I love Man of Steel. So therefore I had thought I would enjoy this one too. Sadly it didn't hit the mark. There was way too much going on and even though it clocks in close to three hours it still manages not to show enough either. It's entertaining sure. The acting is excellent. The fight scenes are pretty fun. The characters weren't written right though. They are trying way too hard to put so much together. There is a ton of bogus thrown in. I think only movie fans that don't follow comics or don't mind all the crazy stuff they make these characters do (that they usually would never do) would like this. As for serious comic fans and the like will not enjoy what they do here. Keep Ben Affleck as Batman. Batman doesn't kill! Lose Joker Lex Luthor. Don't have Doomsday be that lame. Be more cohesive with the plot. Stop with all the dream sequences. Stop all the unnecessary idol imagery. Just stop trying to compete with Marvel. They are already ahead. Patience is greatness. Ugh it's aggravating for a fan who knows how the comics are. Hopefully Suicide Squad will be good.

So I saw this on Netflix while I was browsing. The description was intriguing enough to catch my attention. I tend to like these kinds of stories. I also like Richard Harmon after seeing him in The 100. I haven't seen much of anything by Allan Harmon except some of The Haunting Hour. It looks like this is the only work from the writers so far. Shoot him really? Lol some people need to chill. Why do people always do that when someone is blind? Well at least he is trying with him. Ugh of course there is going to be a conflict with that. How can he work with those guys? It's going to be awkward when she finds out. Dang those back and forth insults were intense. I kind of figured that would happen. I swear his injury is always in the same spot. Those are some real jerks. I have a feeling something really bad is going to end up happening. Oh how typical of this kind of story. That was an interesting moment. A pretty sweet ending. The acting was good. I liked the characters. It has it's cliches of course. Overall though it's definitely up there in inspirational sports movies. I recommend checking it out while it's on Netflix.
