Wick’s universe and backstory expands even more. There are some exciting action sequences, including one featuring Halle Berry and her two, well trained attack dogs. Amazing work put in by the canines. If your looking for deep meaning....pass. But if action you want, you’ll find it here.… Expand

Critics wrong again! Even though the film was lovingly made for the games fans, who will love it, this is by no means the disaster criticsCritics wrong again! Even though the film was lovingly made for the games fans, who will love it, this is by no means the disaster critics make it out to be. Those unfamiliar with the game may find it hard to follow at first, but as the story unfolds, it's easy enough to follow along. The total look of the film is beautiful, and a lot of thought and effort went into building this world for the viewers. An excellent summer popcorn movie!… Expand

The Revenge plot is as old as time, but this film is more about putting the cinema back into the cinema. Gloriously shot and incrediblyThe Revenge plot is as old as time, but this film is more about putting the cinema back into the cinema. Gloriously shot and incredibly executed scenes, bolstered by strong direction and acting may make this the one to beat come Oscar time. Warning though........very graphic in its depiction of violence, and the seemingly single take bear attack may unnerve some viewers.… Expand

Technically well crafted, but completely misses the mark. The cast is given very little to do but to stare at each other. We have no clue whatTechnically well crafted, but completely misses the mark. The cast is given very little to do but to stare at each other. We have no clue what motivates the characters, and have to wonder why are they attracted to each other in the first place. We see no real development of a relationship between the two women. And to cap things off, when Ms. Blanchett get some to show us her acting chops, the director cuts away to another character staring.........big letdown!! Don't be fooled the by the hype.… Expand

You have to sit through aFor good or bad, this film is structured just like the old Godzilla films that Toho Studios produced for years. You have to sit through a "human" story that is not all that involving, you get a peak of Godzilla or another monster now and then, building to a brief ending where Godzilla and company strut their stuff. Technically the film is great, and when Godzilla finally struts is stuff, he kicks ass awesomely. The director obviously is influenced by Spielberg and "JAWS", too bad the human story couldn't have delivered. This does need to be seen on the big screen, so you can enjoy the impact Godzilla makes.… Expand

It gets a 2 from me because of an awesome sequence involving a mutant(Quicksilver) with super speed. It seems all the thought and energy were put into this scene, and it does pay off 200%. All the other actors seem to be showing up to pick up a paycheck, and moving along as fast as possible. I love Jennifer Lawrence, but she even seems to be going through the paces. What a disappointment :(… Expand

Is there not a director out there that can get a grip on the wolverine?

Hugh jackman keeps this from being a total loss, but the story and tone are all over the place. A good moment is lost to numerous dull and botched scenes. I know the studio wanted to avoid a R rating, but the lack of blood from all of wolverine's slashing is laughable. An improvement over the origins film, but rent this if you really have to see it.… Expand
