Sonic The Hedgehog 3

Sonic, Knuckles and Tails reunite to battle Shadow, a mysterious new enemy with powers unlike anything they've faced before. With their abilities outmatched in every way, they seek out an unlikely alliance to stop Shadow and protect the planet.

I am honestly still shocked at how this is now a three movie franchise that has made a ton of money.   Like the voices are good and Jim Carrey always kills at Dr Robotnik but like every time I watch one of these I just feel like it's too long and they end up being very forgettable.  

I would still recommend families using this as an escape this holiday season to take the kids too but outside of Jim Carrey the movie is pretty much just there and pretty forgettable.

Mufasa

Lost and alone, orphaned cub Mufasa meets a sympathetic lion named Taka, the heir to a royal bloodline. The chance meeting sets in motion an expansive journey of an extraordinary group of misfits searching for their destinies.

This movie was a good watch.  The story - even though you pretty much knew how it was going to play out - was good.  The characters were developed well during the course of it.  The big issue with it was honestly the music.  Not that the songs were bad.   The singing just felt really really forced and and even eye rolling at times.   

I would sort of recommend people watching this.  I'm sure that none of this will matter and that the movie will make a ton of money.  The movie is ultimately just kind of there because I'm not sure that there was that much a demand for a prequel like this and the music is very forgettable unlike the original.

Lord Of The Rings: The War Of The Rohirrim

A sudden attack by Wulf, a ruthless Dunlending lord, forces Helm Hammerhand and his people to make a daring last stand in the ancient stronghold of the Hornburg. Finding herself in an increasingly desperate situation, Helm's daughter, Héra, must lead the resistance against a deadly enemy who's intent on total destruction.

This was a really enjoyable watch.  I've always been big fan of all things LOTR and this was right up there with the rest even though it was animated.  Introduced you to some good new characters, the story was good and paced pretty well.  Even though the movie was over two hours I didn't get the feeling of this is too long nearly as much as I have with others.  

I would definitely recommend people - especially fans of the franchise - check this out.  It's a very enjoyable watch and story.

Kraven The Hunter

Kraven's complex relationship with his ruthless father starts him down a path of vengeance, motivating him to become not only the greatest hunter in the world, but also one of its most feared.

And with this latest dud the Sony Spidey spinoffs universe is allegedly and hopefully done.   This movie was pushed back for over a year and that was for a very good reason.  The movie is craptastic in every way.   Way too long.  You don't care at all about the story or characters and it is ultimately just there with nothing happening moving forward related to it announce a week before it came out.  

I would not recommend anyone bothering with this . . . . or any of the Sony Spidey Universe movies.  They are all hot garbage.

Y2K

On the last night of 1999, two high school juniors crash a New Year's Eve party, only to find themselves fighting for their lives when Y2K becomes a reality.

This movie was essentially a decent SNL sketch that went waaaaaaaay too long.  Like it had some actually pretty funny parts for a while.  Maybe like the first half but then it just kept going.   I had bottom or the barrel hopes for this movie going in so it was a little bit better than I expected but regardiless it is a garbage movie.

I would not recommend anyone bothering with this.   Like at all.
