Cinderella (2015) - 8/10

While it doesn't really bring anything new to the story (which is fine), my 7 year old daughter loved it, and that's good enough for me.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

Aloha (2015) have to same Cameron Crowe has really went backwards. A throw away effort with a solid cast wasted. It's basically a rip off of The Decendents. 5/10

Trainwreck - 3.5/5. Would never have seen this if my wife hadn't dragged me there. Must admit, much of it was hysterically funny.

Ex Machina....8.5/10
Good thriller that has you questioning every character's intention and possible outcome.

fistful of dollars: 8/10

for the first third of the movie I had a really hard time understanding what everyone but clint was saying and at times felt like I was watching a tv show more than a movie. regardless eastwood is a total bad ass and I ended up really enjoying it

Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation

After so many turns on the road, most movie franchises start to loose their steam. Every new director and every new script bring changes that enhance but also hinder the main plot. This does not seem to apply to the Mission Impossible franchise which has maintained its initial course over the years (with a few bumps on the road of course) and arguably has gotten better like a good old wine.

The best part of the film are its characters. Tom Cruise has proven time and time again that he was born to play the part of Ethan Hunt. Rebecca Fergusson is stunning but most importantly, she carries the most electrifying and action packed sequences of the film. Every cast member, whether old or new, has something valuable to offer to the main story. It finally feels as the ultimate Mission Impossible Taskforce film, in which the team is the main protagonist.

Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation is the peak of the franchise. It maintains a perfect balance of espionage drama, suspense and action, making it an engrossing and highly entertaining experience. It feels as an improved formula of years of careful and thorough filmmaking work. Hopefully this now classic movie franchise can continue to deliver examples like this for many years more to come.

8.5/10 - Very Impressive

Man I can tell you this if hollywood refuses to give up on franchises like "Transporter" and "Hitman",then a real successful Mission Impossible is probably already penciled in for 10 more films hahaha.
