They fly away, and they reach the Imperial base where all of their files are stored. They get in successfully, and Jyn and Cassion are able to make it into the file house. Things go a little nutty, but the important part is that the rebels got the plans.
The cost was high, but just as the rebels are getting away, Darth Vader boards the ship. He freaking annihilates so many Rebels and just misses the ship that leaves carrying the plans and Princess Leia. So now you'll know why Darth Vader is so pissed at the rebels playing dumb as to where the plans are. Story-Action Balance: 8/10 Droids The story is kind of meant to be a sitting on the edge of your seat type, but there are little breaks that make the overall intensity of the film bearable. The droid K-2SO makes it pretty funny with his overwhelming amount of sarcasm.Visuals: 9/10 AT-ATs Spectacular visuals.
The CGI in this film is incredible, and it all looks so crisp.Overall: 8 /10 Stars The movie isn't better than The Force Awakens in my opinion, but it is definitely a movie worth the price of admission. I would highly recommend you going to see it.Bibliography: 'Rogue One: A Star Wars Story Trailer'. They tell him to never utter that name again and that Dormammu is no power to trifle with.From there, the action picks up as Kaecilius, a former student of The Ancient One that stole some pages from a book at the beginning of the movie, starts attacking the different sanctums of the world.The Sanctums, as Wong and Mordo explain, are the three magical places that place a barrier over the Earth to keep Dormammu and other evil entities out. So while the Avengers fight aliens, the Sorcerers fight battles within the mystical realm.Eventually, Kaecilius storms all three (New York, Hong Kong, and London) and Dormammu begins his descent in Hong Kong. Strange, bearing the Eye of Agamotto and the Cloak of Levitation, reverses time so that the collateral damage can be minimized. But before he can complete the spell, Kaecilius and his goons break from it and start causing trouble.
So what Strange. Family Friendliness: 9/10 Sanctums There wasn't much in this movie to really point out that would be really worthy of noting. I mean, there's violence obviously, and then there's a lot of graphic injuries especially in the beginning when Strange is all screwed up because of the car crash. There's minimal swearing, and overall, it's a pretty fun movie.Story-line: 7/10 Magic Books Overall, it's the typical story.
This guy has got an issue and a big ego, wants to fix the problem, then ends up becoming a great hero that saves all of humanity. But the fact that it's magic makes it amazing.Story-Action Balance: 8/10 Spells There was a nice balance between the actual plot and then the action that ensues as a result of the story is nicely played out. The visuals are stunning, and I'll even give those visuals a rating below.Visuals: 9/10 Sorcerers Nuff said, just watch it.Comic Accuracy: 8/10 The origin story is spot on, except for the fact that the Ancient One was not a woman, Mordo was originally a bad guy already when Strange came along, and that Strange did not face Dormammu until he was about 10 years into his training. But then again, Marvel can't cover ten years of training in about two and a half hours. Other than that, swell movie!Overall: 8/10 SEE ITBibliography: 'Doctor Strange Trailer' 'Doctor Strange' 'Doctor Strange: The Ancient One' 'Doctor Strange: Mordo' 'Doctor Strange: Kaecilius' 'Doctor Strange: Dormammu'.
Fast forward three years and Manhattan is overrun with vegetation, deer, and lions gotten out of the zoo. Lieutenant Colonel Robert Neville is a former US Army Virologist, and the last survivor of 'Ground Zero.'
That's right, the virus started in Manhattan, and spread from there. That means that his Base of Operations is the most heavily infested area with Darkseekers.Darkseekers aren't like any other monster you've ever seen. They're not even like the Abbys in the T.V.
Series Wayward Pines. They are their own class of monsters, very similar to Vampires in that they die within seconds of being exposed to UV rays, but different in that they are not as intelligent let alone sophisticated as the vampires you may know from Underworld. They are still pretty scary, though. There's a picture of one to the right.For the past three years, Neville has been attempting to make a cure from his blood, because he was one of the 1% of the entire population of the planet that actually survived the virus, both airborne and through contact with bodily fluids. His everyday routine is getting up, exercising, going out and doing some raiding of abandoned apartments with his dog Samantha, a gift from his daughter, and going to the docks.His routine however, becomes quickly interrupted, and by what remains to be seen.As Neville goes to sleep and wakes up to new days, he has dreams of his last moments with his family. Through these small fleeting glimpses, we understand that his family was attempting to escape Manhattan via chopper, but were killed by another chopper that was weighted down by a bunch of people and crashed into Neville's family's chopper.Can Dr. Robert Neville find a cure to the virus that has plagued the entire planet?
Can he survive in the world that has been left behind by the 'cure for cancer'? Go ahead and find out. Michelle uncuffs herself and then immediately tries working on a way to escape. First thing she does is pull off the rubber covering off of the bottom of one crutch and takes the key for her cuffs and sharpens the end of the exposed crutch so that it's got a nasty cutting edge.
She then plans to wait for John Goodman to return. But there's no luck. She waits for awhile and he doesn't come back. So naturally, make a way for him to come back, right? Sure, let's make the creepy man come back. Thriller Level- 8/10 Vents This was beyond stressful.
There's a point in the movie where Michelle, Emmet, and Howard are playing a game where you have to guess what the character they're describing is, and Howard gets Santa Claus. So what he says as hints is 'I'm watching you. I see you when you sleep.' And that just freaked me out because Howard is a real nut case. Not to mention there were the scenes where Michelle is crawling through the vents of the bunker.
That may not stress you out, but I'm claustrophobic, and even seeing people in those kinds of situations gets me really worked up. Acting- 8/10 Generators Alright if you haven't noticed already, I'm experimenting with a lot of different aspects of movies. For thrillers and other things where you can't really measure comic book accuracy, I'm trying to figure out what you guys would like to read about. So just bear with me. But anyway, the acting was phenomenal. I have to say that the actress who played Michelle did a fantastic job, and I don't even know her name. John Goodman contributed too, so obviously that makes it all the better.
Overall- 8/10 The actual rating would have come out to be a 7, but this movie was just so good. I mean, I was not for a moment bored, I was constantly thinking, and Leonardo DiCaprio delivered a phenomenal performance. Mark Ruffalo and Ben Kingsley were also primary characters, which definitely boosts the rating because they both did amazing. Overall, I highly recommend this movie to anyone not wanting to go see the new Ouija: Origin of Evil, but would like to stay in the Halloween and freaky spirit. Kirk presents them a gift, which the council immediately rejects and starts flipping out about. ' Where did you get that?!'
They demand of him. 'It was a gift to you,' he responds, not realizing the significance of it. Obviously, we've got no idea either. It looks like one of thoseJaylah, who helps Scottiehologram projectors from the Star Wars: The Clone Wars T.V.
Series (I loved that show).So the council members jump down at Kirk and start attacking him, which means that diplomatic ties have failed. The Enterprise beams Kirk outta there and they leave the planet. On board, Kirk and Bones have a drink together in celebration for Kirk's birthday, which is the next day. Kirk asks Bones to keep the whole thing low-key, because he doesn't like others knowing about his birthday. Bones agrees.The Enterprise's next stop is the newest and biggest Starfleet Space Station to date. It reminds me a lot of the bigger Death Star in The Force Awakens.
There, they're going to get some rest, refuel, restock, and then be on their way.Alright so fast forward a bit and the crew is crash landed on a strange planet in the middle of an uncharted Nebula, a little ways away from the giant Starfleet Space Station. The Enterprise is totally trashed, the majority of the crew is captured, and Bones is with an injured Spock while Kirk and Chekhov are together trying to find Bones and Spock and Scottie.
Scottie meets a woman who leads him to an old Starfleet Space Craft, which she has made her home.What you need to know is that Bones, Spock, Kirk, Chekhov, and Scottie all reunite to save the crew of the Enterprise, and in the process stop a plot to basically wipe out the entire galaxy, usual space kind of stuff. It's a wild ride though, and I loved the visuals and CGI. Ratings:Family Friendliness- 8/10 There's some minor blood, a whole lotta fighting, shooting, punching, kicking, action sorta stuff. It's more action-packed than story really, but the story is.
I still think that J.J. Abrams would totally have rocked this one had he directed it.Story line- 6/10 Like I said, there isn't really that strong of a story. In fact, the story doesn't really show up until halfway into the movie, and by that time you've just lost all hope for a story when it slaps you in the face and you're forced to pay attention again. This wasn't like the previous two Star Treks where the story was there right in the beginning and you have to follow the entire time, leaving you satisfied at the end.
It's Chris Pine. He's a fun guy!Story-Action Balance- 6/10 Personally, I love a movie where it's just action and things blowing up every now and then. But I was honestly expecting a pretty solid story from this third installment of the revamped Star Trek series.Miscellaneous- 8/10 It's not that much miscellaneous stuff, but I just wanted to throw in there that I really enjoyed the fact that there was a lot more character development, especially with Kirk and Spock. Their stories were virtually the same (I won't spoil anything) but it also delved deeper into Scottie, Bones, Zulu, Chekhov, and Uhura as a family of sorts. Also, since Leonard Nimoy's passing, they do pay homage to him in the film, which contributes to Spock's development further into the story.
Kirk is still growing up a lot, and I like how they show his maturity grow as each film passes. I feel like he is becoming more and more of a man, and by the time the series ends, Kirk will be just as wise as William Shatner's Kirk. Hopefully.Overall- 7.5/10 The math actually checks out to 7/10 but I gave it a little bit of a boost because it's Star Trek. I absolutely love this series and I can't wait to see how J.J. Abrams picks up the story. Hopefully he does a better job than this director. I know he will, I mean, look at what he did with Star Wars VII: The Force Awakens!
Will rock it. On this team are Deadshot (Will Smith, Concussion, Independence Day, MIB Trilogy), Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie, The Wolf of Wall Street ), Captain Boomerang (Jai Courtney, Terminator: Genisys ), El Diablo (Jay Hernandez, Quarantine), Killer Croc (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, Pompeii, Concussion), Katana (Karen Fukuhara), and the Enchantress (Cara Delevingne, Paper Towns ). The film takes some time to give background to some of the villains in the beginning, then continues onto the main plot. Comic Accuracy- 8/10 Enchantresses I don't really follow DC Comics, but for what I know, they did a very good job for their casting.
Margot Robbie was a gem, Adewale was a funny but menacing Killer Croc, Jay Hernandez was a cool Diablo, but the only thing I wasn't too happy with was Jared Leto as the Joker. I will always love Heath Ledger, and I don't think that Leto could live up to Ledger's legacy. But I'm hoping that they'll take Leto's Joker into a new direction where I can learn to respect him for his context as the Joker, like Jack Nicholson in Michael Keaton's Batman.
