Hercules (2014)
A great twist on a classic story...and the rock!
"Hercules" starring Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson absolutely delivers on its promise to be entertaining. I went into this film with half-hearted expectations, thinking that Dwayne Johnson wouldn't fit the part well, I fully expected this to be an entire film of blood and fighting. This is far from correct. The writers of this film are fantastic going for almost "A knight's tale" vibe to it with a ton of comedy. I honestly found myself laughing out loud much more than I found myself getting drilled with constant WWE style fighting like there was in "The legend of hercules", mind you this is a very good thing. The laid back style of this film is what makes it so great, sadly this film failed in the box office, hopefully folks can see the potential and eat it up on bluray/DVD.
Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)
A breathe of fresh air into an already thriving Marvel Cinematic Universe.
"Guardians of the Galaxy" is the movie we've all been waiting for. It combines a pleasant mix of comedy and action to give us what many believe, including I, that this is Marvel studios best film to date. From the perfect cast to the engrossing story, this film is one of the best and should go down as one of the best superhero movies to hit the big screen. Chris Pratt is perfect as Star-Lord, a brash young adventurer, born on Earth, but taken as a young boy when his mother passed away. He sees himself at odds with an evil ruler known as Ronan the Accuser when he tries to steal an orb containing an infinity stone, yes that's right, an infinity stone. Fate then leads him to meet up with the daughter of Thanos, Gamora, two thugs trying to collect their due, Groot and Rocket, and finally a revenge driven maniac known as Drax, who is in my opinion one of the brightest surprises of the film. They then must put aside their differences and team up to stop Ronan and his army from using the infinity stone to wipe out the galaxy. Now if I was forced to point out a negative I would say that the villains are a bit under developed but that's about it. Now all i can is bring on Age of Ultron!
