San Andreas



I saw San Andreas today. If you have seen any of those late 90s natural disaster movies (Deep Impact, Armageddon, The Day After Tomorrow, etc) then you've seen this movie. Poor script, no clear direction in the plot, decent acting, awesome action & CGI. If you are okay with that then I say go for it. Just get there early because this is a popular one.

Pitch Perfect 2



I saw Pitch Perfect 2 yesterday. As always its hard to follow up a great original. I will say that even though it wasn't as good as the original there were some funny moments, mostly due to Rebel Wilson's great timing, and even a couple of touching ones. There were definitely also quite a few awkward moments, but that's what happens when you are trying to push the envelope. I think this is one of those movies that you might have been more disappointed to see if it was opening weekend and I had to fight crowds to see it. Since its been out for a while, I'd say check it out.

Ex Machina & Avengers: Age of Ultron



Saw Ex Machina & Avengers: Age of Ultron this weekend. 
Ex Machina was a cool idea that came out weird and a little creepy. It was also slow paced. I wondered for a long time if it would ever pick up. There was a lot potential for this one because the acting was so good, but in the end it just leaves you feeling like you wasted your time. 



Avengers: Age of Ultron was action packed. Some parts were a little over done and fake looking but overall very entertaining. The only thing I would suggest on this one is go to the bathroom beforehand because this is a long one.
