Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)
Half good, half worst thing ever put to screen
This is one of the most frustrating movies I have ever seen because there is stuff in it I love and there is stuff in it that I hate with a passion. I was a bit skeptical when I heard that Ben Affleck was going to play Batman/Bruce Wayne, but I was sold with his performance as soon as he came on screen. Henry Cavil was really good as Clark Kent/Superman too. My favorite scene in the movie was when Clark Kent and Bruce Wayne meet for the first time. Seeing them argue about Batman and Superman being threats rather than heroes was exactly what I wanted to see, but that scene was ruined the moment Jessie Eisenberg's poor excuse of a Lex Luther portrayal interrupts the conversation between Clark and Bruce. Jessie Eisenberg playing Lex Luther was the absolute worse casting of a comic book character I have ever seen, and I've seen Topher Grace's Venom portayal! They absolutely should not have had the Doomsday storyline because there already is way too much crammed into this movie. This movie also cheats the audience because even though it is almost a 3 hour movie, Batman and Superman only fight for about 5 minuets! Don't call the movie "Batman V Superman" if only about 3% of the movie is a fight between Batman and Superman. That's like if you changed the title of "Rocky IV" to "Paulie's Robot", it doesn't make sense because the robot is only in that movie for 2 or 3 brief scenes. The best metaphor to describe Batman V Superman is that it is a lot like the Batman cereal that came out when this movie did. The Batman cereal was chocolate-strawberry flavor and it did not taste good because there was way too much flavor going on clashing with other flavors. That is the best way to describe this movie! I give it 5 stars because there are 5 stars for everything that is good and 5 stars missing for everything that is bad.
Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2 (2015)
Blart Side of the Moon
Don't get me wrong, this is a terrible movie. The only reason to watch it is when it is on mute and is synched up with Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon". Trust me, that is an experience!
The First Purge (2018)
Don't Waste Your Time
The Purge is an interesting concept that would not work if it was done in real life. I enjoyed "Purge: Anarchy" because it was what the first film should've been. When this prequel came out that was about the very first experimental Purge, I was a little intrigued but not super interested. One day after I got off work and was waiting to pick my brother up from the train station, I had a few hours to kill, so I used my MoviePass to kill some time while watching "The First Purge". It was super boring and not very fun to watch. The characters sucked and it wasn't anything new from what has been done already. The only thing that I found slightly interesting was the government employees that were discussing and analyzing the Purge as it was going on. This film felt like it was deep, but it was anything but. Just skip it and stick with the second movie.
