My Movie Review: The movie is over-the-top finally a blockbuster really delivers beyond expected, no minute wasted and every moment  is worth seeing. This has been the best Fast & Furious to date, from Azerbaijan to Abu Dhabi cars were flying out of an airplane and high buildings I was blown away! What make Fast & Furious movies stand out to other action movie is that they manage to show incredible friends journey and they got each other as a one big family. Everyone had a heartfelt towards the end when Vin Diesel pays tribute to the late Paul Walker make us realize how life is so precious and every ride ends.
My Favorite Lines: "The most important thing in life will always be the people right there, right now. That’s what’s real." "He lives in a world that doesn't play by your rules." "I don’t have friends. I got family." "Just when you think it couldn’t get any better, huh?" "Why didn’t you tell me we were married? You can’t tell someone to love you." "If you die, I die."

My Movie Review: The movie is like a bubble, I'm just seeing it but doesn't affect me! not scary enough. The back story felt they get it from past random movies but it helps to understand how the island become haunted. Good thing there's summer vibe that this movie is brings young people on the boat and working on the bar. The night time turns crazy good when they try to escape the island but the end didn't gave me justice and thrill.
My Favorite Term: Haunted Islands

There has been islands used by pirates to bury their treasures, others have been used to isolate prisoners, mental patients or plague victims. Wars and battles were fought on certain islands while mass graves and Indian burial were found on others.

My Movie Review: The movie is unpredictable, you don't know if what happen is real or just an illusion, I'm having daydream while watching. Insurgent give us the completion on how things work, still set in familiar environment at the same time exploring other factions. I'd like the part where Tris tries to save her mother in this moving fire house. Miles Teller has the most exciting role, he can act as a villain but in the end his part of the good guys.
My Favorite Lines: "I'm not gonna fight you. Of course you're not. You're gonna fight you." "You're living proof that the Divergent problem has grown beyond all control." "Jeanine claims you're all dangerous Insurgents. If we were to combine forces, we'd be unstoppable." "This is the only chance to rescue what little civilization we have left."

My Movie Review: The movie is elegant, classic fairy tale told in a extravagant motion picture. This movie adds value to the original Cinderella from the lavish ball gowns to simple grand gestures and heartfelt moments. Lily James has the purity and grace of Cinderella that many little girls what to be and adult movie goers will relive their childhood memories. I've must say well- executed didn't ruin the story unlike others and well in fact gave lesson of courage to the right thing, kindness and believe again in happy ever after.
My Favorite Character: Fairy Godmother

The Fairy Godmother is a motherly, genuine character with an optimistically pure heart. She serves as a physical symbol of hope in Cinderella's life. “The Fairy Godmother should have a kindly voice with a certain age in it. I don't see her as being goofy or stupid, but rather as having a wonderful sense of humor.”
