When I first watched the trailer for this movie I thought it was going to be a really good action packed movie that doesn't have any down time. But I didn't leave that disappointed. Though this movie has one of my favorite male actors Kevin Costner, it still wasn't what I thought it was going to be. The movie is about a dying CIA agent (Kevin Costner) trying to reconnect with his estranged daughter and is offered an experimental drug that could save his life, and for exchange he must accepted an assassination mission that would be his last. Though this movie does have action and is exiting. It doesn't offer the extreme thrill that I thought it would. Instead the movie mostly revolves around his daughter and the relationship that he wants to regain while he is trying to balance his mission with his daughter.Kevin Costner's character is under the orders of a mysterious women that doesn't reveal much about her self except why she wants him to complete this mission and that she is under the orders of the Director of the CIA. Over all I do recommend this movie and would give this movie 7 stars out of 10.Movies

The Monuments Men
This true story is based during World War Two. It is the story of a platoon that is made up of artfully talented and experienced workers that is tasked to rescue art masterpieces from Nazi thieves and that is returned to their owners. This movie was directed by George Clooney. He also plays as the platoon leader. This movie is not just about artwork but the bond between the unlikely soldiers. This movie tests the moral values of life over art and history. Is life more important than saving a piece of artwork. The men that took this mission would surely say so. They would say preserving a piece of artwork is saving a valuable piece of history that if destroyed would be forever lost. This movie does a good job at showing how preserving simple history and risking lives to do it will for ever benefit society in the long run. This movie is sometimes serious and yet sometimes whitey. I highly recommend this movie and I give it 9 out of 10 stars.

This relationship is made even more reckless by there parents due to them trying to keep them apart. This movie is coming out February 14 and has a rating of 6.1 stars out of 10 on IMDb.

If you just want to go see any movie this weekend then you have a good choices as well. From a blast of the past to a gripping heart pounding action packed movie, to the kid friendly. This weekend you will want to go see a movie. The blast from the past RoboCop, a new spin off of the older movies that has a rating of 6.7 stars out of 10 on IMDb. This RoboCop takes place in 2028. Alex Murphy played by Joel Kinnaman is a cop that is critically injured in the line of duty. When all ideas fail for a robot cop that will win the hearts of Americans the Multinational Conglomerate OmniCorp takes advantage of this injured cop and turns him into a part man, part robot police officer.
If you are looking for a heart pounding action packed movie, then I would suggest going to watch Lone Survivor. This movie is based on a true story and is rated 7.9 stars out of 10 on IMDb. I have seen this movie and let me tell you that it is great. It is also griping and sad. I highly recommend you go see this movie. It has been in theaters for some time know so if you haven't seen it, you don't have much time left. Lone Survivor is about Marcus Luttrell and his team of navy seals go on a mission to capture or kill a Taliban leader named Ahmad Shah in 2005. Marcus and his team are left to fight for their lives when the mission becomes compromised.
If you have kids and are looking into going to see a movie I recommend The Nut Job. It is a funny movie that your kids will love. The Nut Job has a rating of 5.7 stars out of 10 on IMDb. The Nut Job is about a exiled squirrel that finds himself helping his former brethren raid a nut store in order to survive.

About Me
I'm Kyle and I am a senior in a mountain valley town. I like to watch many movies but more so watching action movies. I mostly only go to and see them on weekends due to school during the week. But Movies are a big part in American culture also, movies are what many people watch to escape from reality, kill time or just to relax and enjoy the time that they have to sit around and watch a movie. I'm here to help you pick the right movie to go see this weekend.
