John Wick: Chapter 2

John Wick 2 doesn’t hold a candle to the original. The action is boring, the plot doesn’t make sense, and it’s all just a setup for the next one.

I didn’t see John Wick in the theater, and when I watched it, I wished I had. So I was determined to see John Wick 2 in the theater (and I did). There were only two other people there, so that was nice. The opening scene was great. I loved the view of New York, even though I had no idea that’s what city it was. And the opening car chase was cool, too. But it was all downhill from there.

Terminator Salvation

Christian Bale..first Batman, now John Connor. What's next, fucking Mad Max? The movie may have been more interesting if the "big reveal" hadn't been revealed in the trailer, but that's alright; I guess they had to give us some reason to go see it other than "the machines try to kill John again." It was appropriately loud and action-packed, and the casting was pretty good. I enjoyed it, although it would've been nice to know more about Marcus' past, and the ending was slightly detrimental and completely unnecessary.

Wanted

I liked the idea behind this story, and the twist was good. Angelina Jolie is too skinny, but she's hot enough as the only woman we've got for most of the movie.
