In Triple 9, a crew of dirty cops is blackmailed by the Russian mob to execute a virtually impossible heist. The only way to pull it off is to manufacture a 999, police code for “officer down”. Their plan is turned upside down when the unsuspecting rookie they set up to die foils the attack, triggering a breakneck, action-packed finale filled with double-crosses, greed and revenge.
This was a pretty good dirty cop movie. The cast was awesome and the back and forth between the team members and the lack of trust playing out developed slowly but surely keeping you hooked throughout the movie.
I would recommend people checking this out. It's a fun and tightly paced ride with a really good collection of actors.
In this spectacular action-adventure inspired by the classic mythology of Egypt, the survival of mankind hangs in the balance as an unexpected mortal hero Bek (Brenton Thwaites) undertakes a thrilling journey to save the world and rescue his true love. In order to succeed, he must enlist the help of the powerful god Horus (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) in an unlikely alliance against Set (Gerard Butler), the merciless god of darkness, who has usurped Egypt's throne, plunging the once peaceful and prosperous empire into chaos and conflict. As their breathtaking battle against Set and his henchmen takes them into the afterlife and across the heavens, both god and mortal must pass tests of courage and sacrifice if they hope to prevail in the epic final confrontation.
Wow. This was garbage. Even the usual production value of movies like this were garbage. No special effects or set production could save this. How were these actors in this? Total crap.
I would definitely not recommend anyone waste a single minute watching that. Again - this was crap.
When feisty medical student Gabby Holland moves in next door to perennial ladies’ man Travis Shaw, it sends them both on a romantic journey neither ever dreamed possible. Travis has always believed a serious relationship with a woman would cramp his easygoing lifestyle, while Gabby is all set to settle down her long-term boyfriend—until an irresistible attraction between the unlikely couple upends both of their well-planned lives. After a whirlwind courtship, Gabby and Travis wed and build a family together, making every decision hand-in-hand until one of them is forced to make the most important choice of their life alone. A poignant and life-affirming celebration of love, marriage and family that explores the most heart-wrenching question of all: how far would you go to keep the hope of love alive?
This was a textbook Nicholas Sparks movie. Unlikely love story where just when everything seems too good to be true, something majorly dramatic traumatic happens and heartstrings are pulled. This one was more watchable than I thought it would be and the heartstrings were not pulled too much which made the movie a decent watch.
I would lukewarmly recommend this movie to people. It wasn't bad but it wasn't great. It's just kind of floating inbetween.
A zombie outbreak has fallen upon the land in Jane Austen’s classic tale of the tangled relationships between lovers from different social classes in 19th century England. Feisty heroine Elizabeth Bennet (Lily James) is a master of martial arts and weaponry and the handsome Mr. Darcy (Sam Reilly) is a fierce zombie killer, yet the epitome of upper class prejudice. As the zombie outbreak intensifies, they must swallow their pride and join forces on the blood-soaked battlefield.
The version I watched was a bootleg with choppy sound, but I really don't think it would have mattered. This movie was just a time period variation of a zombie movie and it was pretty blah. Part of the allure of the zombie stuff is the thought of it actually happening so putting it in this time period takes that away and leaves you with no hook. It's just boring.
I wouldn't recommend anyone bothering with this movie. I'm usually a fan of zombie stuff but this movie really is just kind of there.
Based upon Marvel Comics’ most unconventional anti-hero, Deadpool tells the origin story of former Special Forces operative turned mercenary Wade Wilson, who after being subjected to a rogue experiment that leaves him with accelerated healing powers, adopts the alter ego Deadpool. Armed with his new abilities and a dark, twisted sense of humor, Deadpool hunts down the man who nearly destroyed his life.
This movie was awesome. It was the R rated comic book movie that everyone wanted. It mocked itself openly. It mocked comic books openly. It mocked Hollywood openly. It didn't take itself seriously and still delivered on every level. Great action. Great writing. Great back and forth story telling. Great acting since Ryan Reynolds was basically born to play this part. And there is the possibility of X-Men tie-ins too.
I absolutely recommend people checking this movie out. It is ALOT of fun. It's definitely a comic book movie for adults but it was awesome.
Set in New England circa 1630, The Witch follows a farmer who get cast out of his colonial plantation and is forced to move his family to a remote plot of land on the edge of an ominous forest rumored to be controlled by witches. Almost immediately, strange and unsettling things begin to happen-the animals turn violent, the crops fail, and one of the children disappears, only to return seemingly possessed by an evil spirit. As suspicion and paranoia mount, everyone begins to point the finger at teenage daughter Thomasin. They accuse her of witchcraft, which she adamantly denies...but as circumstances become more and more treacherous, each family member's faith, loyalty, and love will be tested in shocking and unforgettable ways.
Let me start by saying that this movie was filmed in a specific way that made you weirded out from the start. It was as if we were there and watching this family in their regular day to day life and should not be seeing what we were seeing. Not sure if that makes sense or not but it did give the movie a certain kind of allure to it. Unfortunately it failed to capitalize on that and the movie pretty much failed. There were definitely a few scary moments and lots of creepiness but the whole audience pretty much groaned in disappointment when the credits started.
I wouldn't recommend anyone seeing this. It was a great filming style but not much more than that.
The original 2001 film about a dimwitted male super-model turned wannabe spy earned $60.8 million worldwide. The beginning of the movie is set 10 years later, and Derek & Hansel are literally forgotten. Nobody even knows who they are, so they have to re-invent themselves. Stiller said that Will Ferrell's Mugatu would be back, if the actor is up for it. "If Will says yes, he definitely has to be a part of it. To me, Mugatu is one of the classic screen villains of all time."
This is definitely one of those did we really need a sequel to this movie situations. Zoolander was what it was - an SNL like skit idea that was expended to a movie. There are some good laughs but no real need to expand on this as a continuing story. There were some decent laughs throughout the movie but nothing that warrants a need to see it.
I wouldn't really recommend anyone bothering with this. It could have been worse but it wasn't all that good and ultimately there was just no need for a continuation to the Zoolander story.
A polar bear of many words, Norm’s greatest gripe is simple: there is no room for tourists in the Arctic. But when a maniacal developer threatens to build luxury condos in his own backyard, Norm does what all normal polar bears would do…he heads to New York City to stop it. With a cast of ragtag lemmings at his side, Norm takes on the big apple, big business and a big identity crisis to save the day.
This was one hell of a lame January animated movie release for the sole purpose of miling parents of their money on a holiday weekend. It was only 90 minutes long but still felt about 80 minutes too long.
I would not recommend anyone wasting their time with this. And for the record - my 10 year old niece said the same thing.
If you got hot and bothered by Christian Grey, wait until you get a load of Christian Black! Brought to you by Marlon Wayans and the comedy team behind the "A Haunted House" franchise, "Scary Movie," and "White Chicks," comes a parody like you've never experienced before. Get ready for an erotic spoof comedy as "Fifty Shades of Black" takes you through a maze of hard, rough, and pre-mature encounters from inside of Mr. Black's playroom.
This movie was awful. I've always managed to find something redeeming or laugh worthy in spoof movies. I've always been a big fan of Marlon Wayans. But this movie was just plain awful. I watched it with an ewwww face on pretty much the entire movie.
I wouldn't recommend anyone bothering with this. It was garbage and a total waste of time.
Jason Kelly (Zac Efron) is one week away from marrying his boss’s uber-controlling daughter, putting him on the fast track for a partnership at the law firm. However, when the straight-laced Jason is tricked into driving his foul-mouthed grandfather, Dick (Robert De Niro), to Daytona for spring break, his pending nuptials are suddenly in jeopardy. Between riotous frat parties, bar fights, and an epic night of karaoke, Dick is on a quest to live his life to the fullest and bring Jason along for the ride. Ultimately, on the wildest journey of their lives, “dirty” Grandpa and his uptight grandson discover they can learn from one another and form the bond they never had.
This movie had me dying. The comedy and dialogue was off the charts vulgar but was so damn funny. Robert DeNiro was hysterical and Zac Efron was also great at playing the straight guy. I really did not expect to enjoy this movie or laugh nearly as much as I did. One of DeNiro's better and funniest stuff in a while.
I'd absolutely recommend people checking this out. Again - very vulgar but still incredibly enjoyable.
