‘The Upside’ Movie Review

Based on a true story and 2011 French movie we have an equally heartwarming journey with this new cast.  Love, respect and humor are overflowing, as well as , the healing of all types of hurt.  A good film for all to enjoy.  Several Aretha Franklin songs are played as a tribute to her; note, the posted tribute to her at the end.

‘Last Flag Flying’ Movie Review

Three old friends that served together in the military are reunited only to learn early on that one friend’s son was killed while serving and he needs them to help him bring the body back home. Great acting and lots of laughs while on this serious journey.

‘Power Rangers’ Movie Review

The Power Rangers are an old-school classic Saturday morning live-action and animated television series. I vaguely remember the live-action show yet I wanted to tap into a bit of nostalgia. I thought the movie ran like a “Saturday morning tv show” which may be good for super fans. The movie was entertaining and depicted what it should have. There were cameo appearances of characters that I didn’t recognize yet most of the audience cheered for. Don’t get up so quickly as there is an end credit scene (just one so you don’t have to stay until the screen turns black).

‘The Infiltrator’ Movie Review

Based on a true story and book of the same name this film delves into the true story about the money laundering scheme involving Colombian drug lord Pablo Escobar. Lots of humor although there are quite gory scenes.

‘Kung Fu Panda 3’ Movie Review

What great add to this franchise….funny and entertaining all the way through. If you’re a fan, you’ll be pleased. Definitely for the young at heart. This is probably my favorite ‘Kung Fu Panda’. I saw it in 3D and it’s worth paying for.

‘Trumbo’ Movie Review

This movie is based on a true story and book of the same name. Essentially, one of the best screenwriters in history (and other artists) was jailed for their political views. Mr. Trumbo was an interesting person to say the least; after being black balled in Hollywood he had to write scripts using shadow writer names. I did like this movie and I won’t be surprised hearing about a few Oscar nominations from this stellar ensemble cast.

‘Godzilla’ Movie Review

Well if you’re a fan of the old-school Godzilla movies then I’m sure you’re all hyped up to see this re-boot of the franchise. There have been quite a few Godzilla movies made over the decades and I was generally looking forward to seeing a new-school Godzilla movie on the big screen that compares with this millennium’s monster movies and has all the special effects. I’m happy to share that I did enjoy this movie. I saw it in 3D which I did enjoy yet you’d probably enjoy it in 2D as well. The storyline is typical that leads to Godzilla fighting a monster or two, lol. I liked the lead up to seeing the giant lizard yet once Godzilla is shown we don’t see as much of her? (she had a baby in the old-school movies so I think Godzilla is a female, lol). I was expecting a 5 star re-boot yet this film falls short of it. In the end, Godzilla, always shows who the best monster is so I was a happy camper. I’m hoping this movie does well at the box office so the director/producers can make an even bigger and better Godzilla next time.
