transformers-age-of-extinction-posterI went in having not seen any of the earlier films, and trust me I was not expecting much. I was actually surprised by how much sense the film actually did make, at least for the first hour that is. After that it devolved into complete disarray, making less and less sense while knocking the sense out of you. I did enjoy the first third of this bloated film, (and I use the term "film" lightly.) The plot started out interesting enough, with a tech company backwards engineering their own Transformers, but just when I think the story might get interesting, it completely takes a backseat to two solid hours of unintelligible nonsensical action sequences strung together by comedic one-liners. Ho-hum.

about-last-night-movie-poster-1Kevin Hart and Regina Hall are hilarious and really play well off each other in this film. Unfortunately the other two main characters' charisma is nowhere to be found. The editing is choppy throughout the film to a detriment that I could never overlook. The story wasn't bad, but I really couldn't believe anything I was seeing. Between the silliness of two out of the four main characters, and the lack of emotion from the other two, it all felt far too uneven to take seriously.

total-recall-posterWhat a terrible waste of time. I can understand not including Mars since it's based on the short story and not the original film, but why then include references to the old film? The most upsetting thing was having the three-boob lady but not explaining why? Perhaps she got that way from being exposed to bad air outside of the safe-zones. I really wish at the end he saved the day by turning on a machine that literally cleaned the rest of the world's air so people no longer need to live on one island. The best twist ending this film could've had would have been the original ending to the old movie, even without Mars. Oh well. Maybe the next re-boot in 20 years will be better.

This one feels like they had the biggest budget and yet the least amount of stuff happens. Bella sits on a couch for two hours and Jacob falls in love with an unborn baby? What the hell? The series jumped the shark if you ask me. I did like the honeymoon scenes in the beginning. There were a lot of intentional, and some unintentional, comedic moments in there.

Was hoping for more. To be honest I was drunk off my ass, but in my mind that could have only helped. I admit I did laugh a lot, but I still hated the movie. I'm just mad because the funniest thing in the trailer wasn't in the film, (unless I was so drunk I missed it.) "I don't know how you got onto this car lot blind man, but you're not leaving without a car."
