Man I saw some great movies this week. I needed a week like this. I still haven't seen End of Watch, but I might squeeze it in before the Friday new releases. In the meantime, here's what is coming out on Friday.
1) LOOPER: Time travel exists and it's illegal. So, when the mob wants to get rid of someone, they send him 30 years into the past where a hired gun kills that person. Until one day the mob decides to send the hired gun into the past to be killed.
The Good: It's a very smart sci-fi movie with Bruce Willis and Joseph Gordon-Levitt
The Bad: I don't understand why they send people into the past. And the previews make it look like some people have magic powers.
Final Thoughts: I'd see it but be wary of some things that might be out of place.
2) HOTEL TRANSYLVANIA: Dracula runs a hotel that caters to monsters so they don't have to interact with humans. Then a little boy finds the hotel.
The Good: It has all your favorite monsters.
The Bad: This is a story so lacking in any kind of imagination or creativity, I'm surprised it exists.
Final Thoughts: It might be good for kids, but not for anyone else.
3) SOLOMON KANE: Kane is a 16th century warrior looting and pillaging all across Northern Africa until he tries to attack the wrong castle.
The Good: This is a movie that is for guys like me that enjoy absurdity.
The Bad: I don't know if it plays into the cartoonish nature enough.
Final Thoughts: I want to see it. This is a very Conan-like movie. If you like epic action with funny quips, this is your movie.
See you at the movies
