Having loved comic books as a child, I was often disappointed with their big screen translations. However, thhis and many of the other recent "comic book movies" have made for very pleasant entertainment. With visually stunning 3d visuals, Civil War is a fun, super hero extravaganza.
It's nice to see Superman and Batman portrayed as troubled and even brutal crime fighters. Considering his early life, the Batman portrayed in this movie is more believable for me. Being a big 3d fan, I thoroughly enjoyed the eye popping visuals.
While not my favorite of the series, Kung Fu Panda 3 is still a fun watch. As usual, Jack Black makes for a goofy, unlikely kung-fu expert. Po's quest to find his family roots is heart touching.
Deadpool is the essential anti-hero. It's very refreshing to see a movie based on comic books that stays true to the darker side of the actual comic book. So many time wonderfully violent and crude comic books are sterilized to be released as PG13 movies in order to reach a larger audience.
One of my favorite feel good movies, The Iron Giant has been due for a blu-ray release. The computer animated characters mix seamlessly with the beautifully hand drawn backgrounds. The eye pleasing visuals combine with a cold war period, paranoia laden story to make for a fun retro style animated movie.
Sponge out of water is a great time for all, young and old. As usual Plankton is trying to steal the Crabby Patty secret formula, but this leads to some very unusual adventures. The movie enjoys bright colorful animation and some fun live-action sequences. The 3d is also very well done.
