![Paranormal Activity 4 [Unrated Director's Cut] [Blu-ray/DVD] [Includes Digital Copy] [2012]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/7056/7056081_sa.jpg)

The movie is effective for its genre, and there a some good scenes in the movie. The story picks up after part 2 and continues the story but you can't help but get the feeling that you've seen this movie before - and its because you have! The movie is starting to run out of ideas on why a family needs to record video of themselves and nothing happens for a good portion of the movie. Like the previous films in the series, everything happens at the last 20 minutes or so, and no conclusions are really made - can anybody say sequel yet again? This franchise is milking the audience for its worth. It can be an entertaining movie and it can be pretty effective but an endgame for the series should be planned at this point!

The movie moves along at a brisk pace and has some good action set pieces that make it highly watchable. There are some flaws however, the story can be odd at times with strange character motivations and sometimes random scenes pop up. There is a good amount of momentum to the movie and it can be intense at points which make it a good movie to watch. Oliver Stone has returned to some of his old form but it is definitely not his greatest work. Still, the movie is highly watchable and can be enjoyed.

This is a fun action movie from the director of training day. It has an interesting plot with political espionage and conspiracy mixed in with good action beats. It reminds me of some of the 80's movies in which the hero takes justice and law into his own hands. Overall, it was an entertaining movie to watch, much better than some of the action movies that we get today.

This is a must see movie - an adrenaline rush through and through full of geek moments. You simply must watch this movie if you have been following what Marvel has done with its characters in this shared universe. The payoff was well worth the wait, go watch this.

This X-men film is fantastic, a much better film than the previous two X-films. It ranks as one of the best next to X2. The only problem with these X-films is it deviates too much from the source material, I understand the need for that at times but the characters should at least fit their history, age and timelines. Overall, I recommend the film on the strength of the actors and the the director alone. Watch this movie if you are at all interested in comic book movies,

This movie is a joyride, from the opening to the end sequence I grinned throughout this movie. It is highly entertaining and never lets up. The story is great fun. The director does a great job with this film! Hopefully the sequel delivers to my already high expectations.

This is a fantastic movie occurring before the events of the LOTR trilogy with its own unique storyline with critical events leading up to the LOTR trilogy. The casting is once again fantastic and the story is magical. The special effects are great especially with gollum. The 3D is great but a bit subtle with a few pop outs here and there. Overall, the movie was really good and sets up the next film nicely.

A good movie and highly entertaining but a bit of a letdown, it is easily the weakest link in the trilogy of films. The momentum of the movie shifts too often and the story could use some tweaking or tightening. Overall, a good movie to end the trilogy but not on the high note that it should have.

The Amazing Spider-Man is a reboot of the Spider-Man, it is different enough from the previous trilogy but a lot of the same story beats are seen here. The cast does a wonderful job with the material here, and I would argue are better cast than the previous trilogy. I will say that I am a fan of the previous trilogy and in many ways prefer the previous trilogy, but this movie does stand on its own and will go in different directions in future sequels. Overall, a worthwhile experience for anyone interested in the Spider-Man mythos.

The film is a wonderful experience to watch - the visuals are often breathtaking and the 3D elements are extremely well done. The movie deserves to be seen in 3D and if you have a capable TV and bluray player it is the way to watch the movie. The plot is pretty good too but can be a bit slow at the beginning, but that isn't necessarily a flaw depending on who are you. Overall, I would recommend the film to anyone who has an interest in great visuals and the idea of man against nature.
What's great about it: Fantastic visuals enhanced by great 3D
What's not so great: The pace can be a bit slow
