The Up And Coming Movies I'm Looking Forward To

Here are just a few movies I hope I will be able to see soon with their trailers below. Also I will have a movie review for Beautiful Creatures and my favorite T.V show Pretty Little Liars Too.  Always remember you can comment as well!

Violet&Daisy

If you don't know Saoirse Ronan is one of my favorite actresses so I must see this movie.

The Way,Way Back

This looks incredibly interesting and funny. Also Annasophia Robb is in this movie and after seeing her in The Carrie Darries( do you guys want a review?) I think she's a pretty good actress so I want to see her in a different role.


Man of Steel

Christopher Nolan is a genius.The end.

Prisoners

This caught my eye immediately when I saw the trailer in theaters. Usually these kinds of movie scare me (The Lovely Bones was so scary especially since that same day I had to WALK home....through an empty grass field...yeah not cool) but I want to see how this plays out.

Kick-Ass 2

The first movie was good and I hope to see where the second movie goes.


Honorable Mentions

  • Johnny Depp in Lone Ranger
  • Jude Law in Side Effects


Are you guys looking forward to any movies?

Now You See Me

Sorry for being gone for so long, everyone. I've been busy with college things since I am a SENIOR now!Whoo!! Aside from that I haven't been to the movies or watched any online in ages, but I was able to this past Friday with my friends. I wanted to see Now You See Me when I first saw it as a preview in theaters but never really got around to seeing it. There are a lot more movie reviews that I have planned I just need to get around to posting them. But aside from all that I'm here to give you a movie review!

This movie was extremely clever and had some pretty interesting characters. I really enjoyed their performances and the "magic" really does capture your interest. It was funny, had a lot of adventure, and just kept me really mesmerized. Plot wise this movie delivered pretty well. The movie is mainly based around Lionel Shrike, their three performances, and The Eye.

 The plot twist at the end was DEFINITELY something I did not even expect however at the end I was a little confused and after walking out of the theater then I finally understood it. The magic card fight scene, the bathroom tracking, and their second performance in New Orleans were really memorable from the movie. I wish the movie had more of a back story especially regarding the FBI Agent( if you've seen the movie you know what I mean). If the movie had more of a back story and "purpose" I would have rated it higher. Other than that the characters were interesting, the tricks were amazing, and it was really entertaining. To be honest you really have to watch the movie because everything is so intertwined with the other plots, but I would agree it is worth seeing.

Here are a few of my favorite scenes from the move:




*Overall: This movie is great for magic lover, those of you who love The Prestige and The Illusionist(will be doing reviews of those soon& I looove those two), or for those that want to see something really entertaining! I would put this on my list of a summer must-see!

**If you any of you saw the movie did you like it? Would you compare it to The Prestige? Does  this remind you of any movie? Always feel free to leave a comment!
