Hi Friends. Martin here. Today I'll be reviewing the movies TOMORROWLAND & POLTERGEIST.





                                                    TOMORROWLAND
                    The George Clooney/ Britt Robertson action adventure film
                    opens in a flashback sequnce at the 1964 Worlds Fair when
                    he's ten years old. There he meets a girl named Athena
                   (Awesome newcomer Raffey Cassidy. We've seen her
                  movies such as SNOW WHITE & THE HUNTSMAN &
                  DARK SHADOWS). She invites him to a wonderous
                called TOMORROWLAND. Something happens that he's
             banish from it. Cut to fifty years later Athna(I'm not saying how)
             invites 17 year old Caey Newton to the same place of wonder.
          But when she gets there at first it's all happy and sunshine bu when
        she goes back with George's Frank Walker it's not the same when she
       went there by herself. All in all it's not bad film. It leaves room for a
     sequel. Since it opens at the 1964 Worlds Fair we get the SHERMAN
       BROTHER'S classic's THERE'S A GREAT BIG NEAUTIFUL
         TOMORROWLAND & IT'S A SMALL WORLD. I must've been
       the only one in the audience who knew the song GREAT BIG
      BEAUTIFUL TOMORROW, The film has a great score by Micheal
     Giacchino.  I've read online that DISNEY is devoloping a film based
    on MAIN STREET USA with Jon Favorue directing. So go take the
  trip to TOMORROWLAND. You'll be glad you did & keep an eye on
  Raffey Cassidy. She has a long carrer ahead of her.








                                                      POLTERGEIST
                    The new POLTERGEIST is so so. Like I said last time
                    there will never be another Heather O' Rourke, Dominique
                     Dunne, or Zelda Rubenstien.  Screen & play write
                     DAVID LINDSEY ABAIRE( SHREK THE MUSICAL &
                     INKHEART) does a pretty good job with the scares
                   but not enough laughs. The original although scary had a
                 couple of fun moments. It also doesn't have the music by
                   the late great JERRY GOLDSMITH. The music in the original
                  was a really good at making you jump at all the right places.
                  The only thing I did like in the new version is that the eldest
                 daughter has a lot more to do in the new one. So if yoi want to
                scream & laugh at the same time see the original. Like I said before
              the music is an added bonus.
               
             
           
                 So that's my review of TOMORROWLAND & POLTERGEIST.
                 Next movie I'll be reviewing is SAN ANDREAS & SPY.
                Until next time enjoy the movies.

Hi Friends. Martin here. I know I reviewed this movie before but I accidently erased it.
so here it is one more time.


                                                  CLOUDS OF SILS MARIA
                        CLOUDS stars JULIET BINOCHE & KRISTEN STEWART
                        as an ageing actress & her assistant. The former is deciding on
                        wheather or not to star in a play she was in when she was an up
                      and coming actress. But the producers want her to play the
                      role of the mother and she wants to play the younger part.
                     Enter the great actress CHLOE GRACE MORETZ in the role
                     of a young newcomer who's up for the role that JULIET had
                     when she was younger. All the while KRISTEN is helping
                    JULIET'S character rehearse for the play. It was good untill
                  the end when something happens to the KRISTEN STEWART
                   character that's never explained. So that's it for now. Enjoy
                  the movies.
               
Hi Friends. Martin here. Today I will be reviewing
the movies PITCH PERFECT 2, HOME & MAGGIE.
First up PITCH PERFECT 2/


                               PITCH PERFECT 2
               What can I say about PITCH PERFECT 2
                except the pitches are back!!!! The movie
               is by far better than the first one. The
               addition of another good young actress
               HAILEE STEINFIELD was a good move.
              When they make the third one she'll be
              the new leader of THE BARDEN BELLAS.
              ANNA KENDRICK, REBEL WILSON,
             BRITTANY SNOW, & ANNA CAMP
             all bring thier A game back. They're so
             funny but it's REBEL who steals the movie.
            ELIZABETH BANKS makes an excellent
            directorial debut. She knows how to get her
            shots. ELIZABETH & co-star JOHN
           MICHEAL HIGGINS are still hilarious
           as well. ANNA KENDRICK has come
          a long way since TWILIGHT. HAILEE
         STEINFELD as well has come along way
       since TRUE GRIT where she an academy
      nomination. So enjoy PITCH PERFECT 2
     and let me know how you like it.




                                  
                                         HOME
                 Now for my long delayed review of
                 HOME. HOME was so funny and
                 touching. JIM PARSONS(The Big
                Bang Theory) stars as OH an alien
              on the run for making a mistake he didn't
              mean to make. While on earth OH meets
             GIDDY(RIHANNA) who's looking for
              her mother. STEVE MARTIN plays the
             leader of the alien race who wants to
             take over the earth. The voice work by
            JIM PARSONS, RIHANNA, & STEVE
           MARTIN was awexome. JENNIFER
           LOPEZ who's voice I didn't recognized
          also did a good job as GIDDY'S mother.
         DREAMWORKS ANIMATION STUDIOS
         has with in the last couple of years have
        released some animated films to rival that
        of DISNEY/PIXAR. So enjoy HOME &
       let me know what you think.








                                    MAGGIE
             ARNOLD SHWARZENEGGER &
            ABAGAIL BREZLIN star in one of
            the best zombie movies I have ever
            seen. ABAGAIL stars as a teenage
           girl who is slowly turning in to a
          zombie after the entire country is
          infected with a virus that causes the
           change. ARNOLD plays ABAGAIL'S
           father who goes to great legnth to
           protect her when people he knows
           want to kill her. ABAGAIL I hope
          will get another OSCAR nomination
         for MAGGIE. She's also come a long
         way  since LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE.
         Any one who has CINEAMA NOW can
        see MAGGIE at thier own pace.

            So that's it for now. You won't be
            dissapointed in any of those 3 films.
            I saw PITCH PERFECT 2 twice I
            loved it so much. My next two movies
           will be TOMORROWLAND & the
          new POLTERGEIST. Will POLTERGEIST
        be as good as the original. Who knows.
        There will never be another HEATHER
        O'ROURKE, DOMINIQUE DUNNE or
       ZELDA RUBENSTEIN. Until next time
       enjoy the movies.

Hi Friends. Sorry I'm late for my review of THE AVENGERS: THE AGE OF
ULTRON. Here it is.


                            THE AVENGERS:THE AGE OF ULTRON is an
                            awesome movie. The action once it starts never
                            lets up. the two newcomers ELIZABETH OLSEN
                            (younger sister of former FULL HOUSE stars
                             MARY KATE & ASHLEY) & ARRON TAYLOR-
                             JOHNSON of (KICK ASS 1 & 2) are great as villains
                             turned good guys are a nice fit. ROBERT DOWNEY JR,
                            CHRIS HEMSWORTH, MARK RUFFALO, CHRIS EVANS.
                             & JEREMY RENNER are great & hilarious as always.
                            Speaking of the 5 gents it looks like they won't be
                             around for the next chapter which is to bad because
                            they're funny. I liked it so much I saw it twice.
                           This weekend I'll be seeing PITCH PERFECT 2.
                         So that's my review of THE AVENGERS:THE AGE
                         OF ULTRON. I hope that when you see it you'll
                          will like it as much I did.
