The Interview
Really? This is the movie that sparked such controversy? This bloody predictable attempt at comedy? I haven't watched many comedic movies recently, but this one was just painfully obvious. You go in, and you know which jokes they will try, which obvious twists they will pull, which gags will go on far longer than they should, etc. There wasn't even much satirizing of North Korea in it. You could replace North Korea with any other poor country ruled by a tyrant who spends too much money on warfare* and not much would have changed. There were two moments in the entire movie that came close to actually being funny:

Maybe someone who likes to see James Franco overact might enjoy this, but I wouldn't recommend it.

I saw the final Hobbit movie today. Personally I believe it should have been 2 movies (like it was originally planned), but nonetheless I still thought it was great. 9/10, there are plenty of feels to be had.
Really how do you figure it should have been 2 movies? Frankly I'm amazed there's really enough left for one movie with a little condensing they could a covered this book in one or two.

Boyz n the Hood (10/10): Saw this without any background knowledge, amazed with how good it was. Powerful story, writing, and social and political commentary. Outstanding.
Unbroken (6/10): It was alright, nothing particularly grand or thought provoking like the previous two films.

Well technically, all we know for sure is that North Korea disapproved of the movie, there's still no evidence they were behind the hacking. Actually all leads we have point toward the culprit not being NK.

Enjoyed the story even though since I didn't read the comics I didn't know too much about their backstories, but at least the movie gave a brief concept of their back stories which was a good thing.
Action sequences were pretty amazing and enjoyed a lot of the funny moments that came about from those moments. The jokes in the movie were pretty funny if you got some of the old school music references.
Looking forward to watching Guardians of the Galaxy 2 when it comes out and maybe Ill read the comics.

It was a really heart warming emotional narrative that punches you in the feelings at the end. It was a GREAT movie. The downsides were that it was literally only 60 minutes long, and that it had a really interesting setting but it didn't really delve into it much in the movie, so you kinda felt like they made this beautiful world that was like an Alternate universe Japan, but it never gets explored in the detail you wanted.
I'd give it an 8, it was a great movie regardless~

Does that mean the movie was kinda mediocre, but you love the Puella Magi series too much too outwardly hate it? If so, I feel your pain... 
When it's not exactly a TERRIBLE film, but it just doesn't do the series justice.That's why you always gotta be careful with anime movie adaptations unfortunately

I think my husband had a similar reaction when he had to watch the movie before putting a rating on it for the cinema he was working in at the time. He just watched and kept commenting how weird it is and fucked up.

Well, Madoka Magica is pretty weird and fucked up anyway, but half of Rebellion doesn't even make sense when going by the rules the original series laid out.

I liked it, but I bet I'll enjoy it more when I become a father.
Also, the Huggies chase might be one of the greatest sequences ever put to film.

The previews did not accurately portray just how balls-to-the-wall INSANE this movie is. And it's beautiful.

If this movie was a typical tale of a man rallying the people to rise up against a corrupt government, then it was alright. If it was a political message, it failed horribly. And I'm pretty sure this movie was trying to be the latter. The movie kept throwing around the idea that extreme methods are needed to take out a figurative monster, and that anarchy is better solution than a government with too much control. That's all fine. What isn't fine is making everything so black and white. Up until the end, the movie kept trying to make the audience see that V's methods were the solution, but at the same time, the government was portrayed as evil to the point of parody. I can't take a message seriously if you're can't portray it any better than a propaganda cartoon.
If you're expecting something meaningful, this movie is not the place. But maybe it works as a mindless thriller.
5/10

The last movie I watched was Persona - I hadn't watched it in a few years. It's still one of my favourite movies, so I give it a top rating.

This movie is a mess. It's full of plot threads that don't go anywhere, holes you could drive a truck through, and some of the hammiest acting this side of a 60's Batman episode. But that's precisely why I enjoyed it. Plus, when the movie got exciting, it got really freaking exciting.
The best way I can think of to describe it is that it's like a big-budget fan fiction for a series that doesn't exist.
Also, it was fun watching Eddie Redmayne basically screaming his lines and thinking, "This man just won an Oscar."

It's good to watch when you're bored and feeling lazy. Other than that, it's terrible. Ffs Flavor Flav is in the beginning introducing the film. That alone made it awful and not able to take it seriously.

Essentially Warm and Fuzzy Feelings: The Movie, despite the fact that it essentially focuses on two fugitives. The animation is absolutely gorgeous. The whole film looks like a children's book come to life.

It was a good film don't get me wrong but it has plenty of things that just niggle and wriggle and squiggle at me as "No that's not right."
1: The Black Widow/Hulk romance thing? They had no chemistry in the previous movie and it sort of comes out of nowhere here. It's just not that interesting.
2: Hawkeye is cool and becomes a more interesting character an all, he sure has a winning personality. Unfortunately I don't think his powers are really sufficient for this kind of thing. The movie is asking me to suspend a lot of disbelief when I watch him pop arrows in the head of robots and they go down real easily. He even lampshades it at one point complaining about fighting super robots with a bow and arrow. I get he's a great shot and he's a cool dude but no man your arrows aren't doing crap against these robots. Except maybe the explosive and electric ones but we see regular ones being just as effective.
For comparison while he takes out a robot with a headshot, Captain America the super human smashes the same kind of robot twice with his shield. Stabs it through the neck with his shield and has to actively kick it through the robot's neck severing the head before his one actually dies.
Don't buy it movie.

Part of Mulan's talk about how arranged marriages are a bad idea makes no sense to me, considering that was what she was prepared for in the first one... then again, Mulan 2 does the misunderstanding that breaks people up, I find it a terrible thing...

Watched the same movie yesterday. Visited my dad, and he wanted to see it when we were visiting the cinema. I was a bit reluctant; well, alright, this might be fun, but those films aren't up my alley. But anyhow, it can be fun to step out of one's comfort zone once in a while. Perhaps it will be entertaining. Expectations - null.
I was very surprised when I quickly realized that I genuinely liked it! The atmosphere is very... odd in a good way, and it's filmed in an interesting way. I'd give it 4/5, and I guess it is good to step out of one's comfort zone once in a while, because this is a film I never would have picked up myself. And then I'd miss out on something very nice.
