The Voices
Released 02/06/2015 Rated: R This is another movie whose trailer I first found on YouTube. I had forgotten about it, actually. I was in the library, going through their very small V section of movies (for my 2017 challenge) because … Continue reading

Star Wars: The Force Awakens
Released 12/18/2015 Rated: PG-13 This movie wasn’t even halfway through the first time we saw it in theaters, and I leaned over to my husband and went “This is amazing. We are totally reserving this at MovieStop.” (We don’t usually … Continue reading
The Good Dinosaur
Released 11/25/2015 Rated: PG All the feels! Disney and Pixar have tugged at its audiences’ heartstrings once again with The Good Dinosaur. In my opinion, this is more of a movie for older children, and grownups who are fans of … Continue reading

Released 10/16/2015 Rated: R I enjoyed this film. I enjoyed it a lot, up until the twist, which resulted in the ending. It’s not a bad twist, and I certainly didn’t see it coming, but I guess I was just … Continue reading

The Scorch Trials
Released 09/18/2015 Rated: PG-13 First of all, if you’ve read the book, this movie is nothing like it. I didn’t read the book until after I saw the film, and while the book counterpart contains more of a definite mystery, … Continue reading
American Ultra
Released 08/21/2015 Rated: R This movie is amazing. I feel like the critics who gave the film a bad rating just weren’t the target audience. How did this movie not “live up to its potential”? It was great! The action … Continue reading
