Director: Michael Bay
Cast: John Krasinski , James Badge Dale , Toby Stephens , Pablo Schreiber , Max Martini , David Denman , Dominic Fumusa , David Costabile , Freddie Stroma , Peyman Moaadi
Plot: On the eleventh anniversary of the September 11 attacks, a group of Islamist militants attack the American diplomatic compound and a nearby CIA Annex in Benghazi, Libya. Four Americans including US Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens are killed during the attack. A security team of six members is formed and sent to defend the remaining American survivors.


My Movie Review: The movie is very intense the best war exhibition in years where you do is live in the moment. This is the real deal showcasing the heroism of the soldiers in the battlefield and honoring them by telling what acts done in Benghazi was really upstanding. Michael Bay make this more exciting showing great cinematography giving human stories the action-adventure treatment. The cast really blends well making this a really strong film.

TRAVEL TO MOVIES: THE 5th WAVE


Director: J Blakeson
Cast: Chloë Grace Moretz , Nick Robinson , Ron Livingston , Liev Schreiber , Maggie Siff , Maika Monroe , Zackary Arthur , Alex Roe , Maria Bello , Talitha Bateman , Nadji Jeter
Plot: Set in the present day against the backdrop of fear and distrusts, four waves of deadly attacks by alien invasion have destroyed most of human population, pushing them back to Stone Age. As one of the last survivors on Earth, 16-year-old Cassie Sullivan is on the run, going through multiple obstacles as she desperately tries to save her younger brother Sammy. As she prepares for the inevitable and lethal fifth wave, Cassie meets a young man who may become her final hope.


My Movie Review: The movie is good enough to sell the story apocalyptic survival film that keeps you wanting more even if some were predictable. The first young adult novel to see this year that will take the big screen too much anticipation for the readers yet some think it's just a typical alien invasion story. Powerhouse cast and action sequence always gets me good thing that's my cup of tea cause I like to look what I do if I become part of it.
My Favorite Lines: "The first wave knocked out all the power, then the second wave hit. An earthquake strong enough to shake the entire planet. With the third wave disease spread across the world. By the fourth wave, they were among us." "I didn’t know it then, that was the last normal day of my life." "The Others have the ability to inhabit human hosts and control their actions. They look just like us. They could be any where." "You can’t trust anyone anymore." "The Other see our hope as a weakness, but they’re wrong."

Plot: The Chipmunks travel to Miami to try and prevent Dave from proposing to his new girlfriend. This gets Alvin, Simon and Theodore, worried that their friend will soon dump them. The singing trio then embark on a road trip to stop the proposal at all costs.


My Movie Review: The movie brings back the good life were all you do is enjoy the ride and don't have to worry about anything cause everything's gonna be alright in the end. It's always a bright day in this version showing sun-kissed beach and pool clubs in Miami. The Road Trip good idea to showcase fun times and stop-over were the one to remember and incredible party performance definitely excites especially night parade in New Orleans
My Favorite Character: Theodore Seville

Theodore is the tritagonist of the series and films. He is the youngest of the group and is best described as shy, loving, sensitive, gullible, trusting, naïve and innocent. In ALVINNN!!! and The Chipmunks, Theodore wears a green zipped-hoodie which has a lighter shade of green on the hood, likes to eat a lot that's why he has a fatty bottom, and green and cream colored shoes. He also has green eyes with brown and dark yellow fur.

TRAVEL TO MOVIES: EXTRACTION


Director: Steven C. Miller
Cast: Bruce Willis , Kellan Lutz , Gina Carano , D.B. Sweeney , Dan Bilzerian , Nick Loeb , Joshua Mikel , Steve Coulter , Heather Johansen , Roman Mitichyan , Rob Steinberg
Plot: A former CIA operative is kidnapped by a group of terrorists. When his son learns there is no plan for his father to be saved, he launches his own rescue operation.

My Movie Review: The movie is short literally the whole thing felt like a teaser or bubble that goes away fast. This is the only watchable at the moment while action is spontaneous I hope they made it longer. Big names like Bruce Willis and Kellan Lutz were dropped you can't help to expect nothing less but nowadays there's no guarantee it depends. This is perfect for people who doesn't have much time but want too pretty decent quick fix action.

More Description: When a terrorist group kidnaps retired CIA field operative Leonard Turner (Bruce Willis), his son Harry Turner (Kellan Lutz), a government analyst who has been repeatedly turned down for field service, launches his own unsanctioned rescue operation. While evading highly skilled operatives, deadly assassins, and international terrorists, Harry finally puts his combat training to the test in a high stakes mission to find his father and to stop a terrorist plot.
