‘Chappaquiddick’ Movie Review

Chap banner

Based on true accounts of when Senator Kennedy drove his car over a bridge and the passenger, a secretary who worked for his brothers, drowned.  The movie definitely made me aware of a story I was only a little aware of, I have to do some online reading on the facts.

If you’re a pet lover, then this film will melt your heart. If you’re not a pet lover, it will still melt your heart. This film depicts the realness of dogs/soldiers in the military and based on the true story of Megan Leavey.

This movie is a reminder that PTSD is real and that many soldiers return from combat and can’t adjust to a real and normal life after going through so may traumatic things.

‘The Martian’ Movie Review

I am a sci-fi movie fan and this one is a winner-winner. Better than ‘Gravity’, I thought the storyline was good with picturesque Mars scenery (from what we know it to look like). It’s almost 2 1/2 hours and there are slow parts yet I liked it. I saw it in Real-D 3D. I’m always glad to see #GameOfThrones cast members in films…Sean Bean from Season 1 is in this one (Ned Stark). Also, Kate Mara is co-starring and you can currently see her in ‘Captive’ showing in theatres now.

‘Captive’ Movie Review

Another true story based on the non-fiction book ‘Unlikely Angel’ by Ashley Smith. Compelling to say the least that one would survive such an encounter. The journey of the lead characters actually leads them both to doing the right thing in the end; Maras’ character actually read the top selling book “The Purpose Driven Life” by Rick Warren to her kidnapper. Both have or had dark situations yet David Oyelowo’s character really becomes violent and a murderer. The movie is a bit slow even though is not a long movie. There are a few scenes that no words are spoken.

‘Fantastic Four’ Movie Review

Any true Marvel fan has probably not been pleased with this film. This re-boot still isn’t up to fan appreciation. I will say it’s a little better than I thought it would be yet still disappointing. And….there was no end credit scene. I still hope co-star Michael B. Jordan has a great career despite this box office flub. This one isn’t worth paying full price for at the theatre…wait for cable.

‘Transcendence’ Movie Review

transcendence

I’m a true sci-fi fan yet found myself never being engaged in this film. Johnny Depp is known for portraying corky characters and this character fits that category yet it’s his worst one. I found the storyline to loosely remind me of ‘Her’ which I didn’t like as well. The concept of the storyline is thought provoking on the “what ifs” yet the movie just didn’t connect in my opinion.

2 stars out of 5
PG 13 119 min – Drama | Mystery | Sci-Fi
