If your like me than you were surprised to see the "Night at the Museum" franchise return this past year after a little while away from release of the second film, it would have seemed maybe there would be a third picture, but alas it came in due time. By now there's a formula to these movies and this one is much the same, its debatable if this third and perhaps final film in the franchise is better than the first but I think its fairly easily better than the second. Ben Stiller does his Ben Stiller thing, at times almost coasting through the 90 minutes runtime and the supporting cast is serviceable as well. Rebel Wilson particularly seems to be giving it her all to provide a comedic performance. Its a little sad that this one will go down as Robin Williams final film but its not because he doesn't give a good showing its because he's unfortunately trapped in the Teddy Roosevelt character box. Obviously these Museum movies are more geared to the younger crowd but there are moments in Secret of the Tomb that will possibly give the older viewer a chuckle.
If you like non stop action this movie's for you. There's no time wasted getting to the battlefront and warzone action and it's awesome stuff. David Ayers does a great job putting you in the cramped space of the soldier's Fury tank. The tension raises and you truly don't know who will make it from one scene to the next. Every actor stands out and gives it their all with their various performances. Great direction and fantastic execution.
2014 will go down as one of the best years for Strange Music ever. After Tech released Something Else a lot of people were left wondering if the company had turned the corner musically, and this real only proves it. The beats, the hooks, the variety, its astonishing. Almost every song is radio worthy, yet sadly, as a whole this album got overlooked by many.
At this point this is the newest Breaking Benjamin work, some thought that it'd be their last after the band dissolved for a long while, however, they left on a good note. Dear Agony isn't the bands strongest work, if anything its heir lightest and most consistent work, but they are still doing what they do best and making multiple plays worth songs on this album. Theres moments were perhaps the hooks and melodies are lacking but overall this is not a bad album.
It was this first and second season of Rob and big that started the gravy train for MTV. After Knoxville, Bam, and Wild Boyz had wrapped up their era of fun it was time for something new and this was it. Reality tv doesn't get any funnier than this. On this double release you have over an hour of bonus scenes and extras and the communities are funny enough that they're worth the listen too.
In the 3rd season of Rob and Big one things fairly obvious, that the show is stretched too thin. Its still a great funny season and at times as funny as ever, but with more episodes than ever before it seemed apparent in a couple episodes that maybe they could've used a smaller season (the commentary, which are hilarious, expound on this fact). One of the best reality television shows of all time.
In my opinion it was the Appeal to Reason release from Rise Against that really showcased and took them to the next level and ultimately might go down as their biggest success. Every song is radio worthy and guaranteed multiple listens. Rise Against is at their best on this album and any punk/rock fan should take a listen if they haven't already.
I actually went in thinking this was the 3 disc version of the release, its not. This version only includes the documentary and not all the extra matches, however, the documentary is solid and well produced. They certainly covered Triple H's career and its hard to think of too many spots they missed. Informative and a great career retrospective.
breaking Benjamin's first album was/is a great piece of work, one, that I personally can listen to and enjoy every song, but it was their We Are not Alone release that truly hit the mainstream and took their success to the next level. Every song is worth a listen and chances are they will get stuck in your head. With this top to bottom solid album Breaking Benjamin got non stop radio play and became a household name.
At this point Offspring has been around for over 25 years and at the point this album came out it was hard to expect too much new musically from the bad. Luckily, they surprised and surpassed expectations with this release. Keeping their punk rock roots and creating longer more complex songs to feeling fresh hooks and melodies. This is The Offspring at their best.
