Speed Ratings

I thought it would be a cute idea to give lightning fast film reviews. It is kind of like speed dating version film critiquing. I have seen a few movies over the past month.

22 Jump Street
Not as funny as the original. The movie is saved by the excellent facial expressions of Ice Cube and the chemistry between Tatum and Hill. Verdict: Skip This

Maleficent
Visually stunning. Angelina Jolie is a force of nature as the titled character. It was a refreshing and darker take on a classic tale. Verdict: Must See

X-Men: Days of Future Past

I had high expectations and this film delivered. It was everything a summer blockbuster should be-funny, smart and action packed. The best film of the summer so far. Verdict: Must See

Neighbors
Funny and smart. Verdict: Must see

Belle

 Powerful and beautiful. One of the best movies of the year. Verdict: Must see

The Way Way Back
Heartwarming. Absolutely brilliant. Verdict: Rent this
