Mini-Review: This is a huge mega-blockbuster epic - and astoundingly stupid. Robots that move their lips to talk, with the emotional maturity of five year olds and that travel from beyond the stars to converse in stilted, grandiose english. For G**s sake - one of these robots has a metal moustache dingling when he talks! See it to enjoy cities being destroyed and s**t blowing up. See it to meditate on what its popularity says about humanity. Laugh at its cliched pomposity. And enjoy! Big screen is a must!
Mini-Review: Beautiful, engaging movie from the wild west, where emotions are bottled up and slip out in actions rather than talk. Cool and interesting main character - a young girl who is a child but also tough as nails, and her attempt to get closure by revenging her father.
Mini-Review: Saw it in 2D and found it far better than the first. The plot is more interesting, the villain more of a person, the jokes are smarter, the emotion is more real and engaging.
Mini-Review: Charming and cute movie that follows a straight-line plot that you`ve seen before. OK entertainment - often nicely animated. Sequel is better.
Mini-Review: Ok entertainment of the braindead family-pleasing blockbuster kind. Some fun lines by Depp, some groan-inducing gags, some special effects that no longer make your eyes pop out, and a plot that doesn`t make sense if you start thinking. So don`t. Just sit back and watch.
Mini-Review: This is a fun movie. Downey`s character is quirky and fun and well played without going over-the-Johnny-Depp-top, the plot is nice, the effects and development charming, and the action scenes not too excessively filled with quick cuts of close ups of metal smashing into metal (e.g., transformers 2 and Iron man 2).
Mini-Review: This was a surprisingly fun counting-down-to-the-big-avengers-movie entry. A bit like the first Iron Man, in the sense that you expect something truly B-grade and you`re pleasantly surprised. The character designs I`d seen on the net seemed god-awful, but they work within the movie.
Mini-Review: Sorry - but this was awful. I can`t remember having seen something so by-the-numbers in a long time - plot, characters, side-kicks... painful...
Mini-Review: Coool animation feature with warped character designs and a warped humor and style that I found great fun.
Mini-Review: On one level a kinda hokey science fiction story with unconvincing special effects. But all the same - I got sucked into it like crazy, and found it suspenseful, elegant, touching and completely unpredictable. Great fun.
