    Same here!

    I definitely recommend The Judge. Very good movie with a great story. All I needed was Robert Downey Jr. I love watching his movies, especially this kind, where he plays a very smart lawyer

    If you have older kids, watch it with them too. It's almost a family movie--not like Disney--but it's really touching.

    Nah, my kids are 11 weeks old. We're best off watching horror movies so at least the screaming doesn't ruin a feel good moment in a movie haha.

    Yup! Ha we don't really have the time, but it's something to keep us somewhat sane right now. We just had our first big date since they were born....put them in the back and went to chick fil a drive thru haha. As soon as the car was put in park, nonstop screaming.

    Well, I saw "Run all Night" and yeah, it was "Taken 5". Had a coupon for a free small popcorn and we were tired of working in the garage so we caught the matinee. Well, it was exactly what we thought it would be. Switch out the titles and the story line would still fit. Lian Neeson is in mortal danger of becoming a one dimensional actor. Kinda like Jason Statham. All of his movies lately have been some derivation of "Taken" and this was no different.

    Wait for the DVD or the d/l unless you got a free ticket or time to kill on a Saturday afternoon.

    Great trailers though. One in particular that caught my eye was the upcoming "San Andreas". Looked a lot like 2012 with the CGI and might be worth checking out in IMAX. Ultron of course has to be the summer blockbuster. There were a few others but most were forgettable.

    The Rock is entertaining...Any films he is in is worth a watch...he is the highest earning/paid actor of 2014.
    Can you believe it?

    Yeah I can believe it. Adam Sandler is one of the highest grossing actors in history, think about that. People pay good money to watch stupid stuff in the theatre

    Adam Sandler: guy's a snarky one-trick-pony out of NH by way of Bklyn, but to his credit he's a Jet fan - but it pretty much ends right there.
    Another always working actor I don't "get" is puckering monkey-face Ben Stiller though I'm sure some will disagree with that..

    I wanted to like Nightcrawler (And I did for the first half of the movie) but it kind of falls apart down the stretch. The story could have been so much better. No doubt Jake Gyllenhaal does a great job with his character, but the story lets him and his performance down.

    I can agree with this. As the movie progressed, it slowed down quite a bit. The beginning and start to it all was awesome, but I can definitely see how you think that.

    I actually loved Nightcrawler...It's one of Jake's best performances...he was also amazing in Prisoners. Dude is truly working hard to be great

    See, I want to think this, but I feel like his good roles are when he plays a sociopath. I'm wondering if he's just a really good sociopath haha.

    You catch Prisoners? He was the best in that film...He had a tick throughout the whole time and his emotions were nicely captured on screen

    Yeah, I really liked that movie. I forgot he played the detective in that one. I forgot he wasn't the deranged character!

    I thought Jackman was the best in that movie. He's a great actor also, but he really played an awesome role in that one. Jake was great, as usual.
