Summer Movie Recommendations

[NUinID]

What have you seen, what do you recommend. I have seen Iron Man 3 good movie, Monsters U not bad, not as good as the first. Also saw Will Smith/Jaden Smith After Earth. It was nothing great, but not terrible.

Pacific Rim looks to be good.

I thought this was quite good.

 

Also rather wanted to see Much Ado, and how can you not go see a movie that includes the line,

I haven't seen it though, but I really want to. It's also highly acclaimed, lol.

I've been watching the ESPN 30 for 30s. I really like the Marcus Dupree one, the SMU death penalty, and the thug "u" one.

A few recent ones-

Good Day To Die Hard; terrible excuse of a movie, worst of the bunch by far. Not even worth $1.20 at Redbox.

Rapture-Palooza; was good and stupid funny but have fun trying to find it (got it On Demand-Xfinity)

Silver Linings Playbook; thought it was going to be a chick flick but liked it anyway.

The Call; Pretty decent and Halle Barry isn't bad to look at, a lot.

Key Largo (1950's w/ Bogey & Bacall); Love those old B&W's on TCM

World War Z, Despicable Me 2, and Monsters U; at the top of my want to see list.

Just saw Despicable Me 2 (3D) with the family. Good show, 8 y.o. enjoyed as well as wife and I.

 

Saw The Heat with wife also, very funny, rated R for language.

 

Redboxed the latest Die Hard, have to agree with JJ. Worst of the series, yes even worse than part 2.

A few more fairly recent rentals.

Warm Bodies; I don't know what to say. It was a different take on zombies, which was kind of refreshing, but personally I didn't care for it much. But I think I'm in the minority on that as most I've talked to seemed to really like it. Just thought they could've done so much more with it.

 

This Is 40; watched it this evening. Some really funny stuff mixed in with lots of real depressing stuff. I hated the female lead and a few other characters. It's worth it for the comedic parts. We watched the unrated version. The little outtake blurb at the end alone was worth it.

Now You See Me; enjoyed it, not great but definitely not bad either. Liked the whole concept of the movie but felt a bit betrayed by the ending.

 

Star Trek Into Darkness; Loved it. Have always been into sci fi and am a bit of a trekkie but have really liked these recent two with Chris Pine as the young James T Kirk. And Uhura is hot.

Monsters U was awesome.

Monsters U was awesome.

 

I don't think I would have said awesome, but I did like it. The new Wolverine movie looks good. I watched the first episode of "The Bridge" last night it could be a good show.
