The Batman Rises Review!!! A.K.A. Dark Knight Rises

THE FIRE RISES!!
Hello Again My Friends! Today i am going to review a movie that has been named as a lot of people as the most anticipated movie of not only the summer but of the year. A movie that has capped off an great trilogy of films featuring a superhero named Batman. This movie i am going to review today is....

Yes The Batman Rises! P.S. i like to call it that don't judge me.
I saw this movie just last Tuesday with my best friend so it's still basically fresh in my mind so this will affect my overall grade for this movie. NOW ONTO THE REVIEW!!

STORY:
Now the story picks up after the great movie The Dark Knight 8 years in to the future Gotham is in peace due to what happened in the previous movie. Nobody really likes Batman anymore because of what happened in that movie. Bruce Wayne is also in absence because of those previous events. I really like how the story goes from there *i can't say anything because people still hasn't seen it yet so no spoilers here!* but what everything happens after Bane shows up it is really good and i love how it ended the trilogy on such a good note. I just can't wait to see how the next series of Batman films are going to top these 3! Overall the story was really good i enjoyed it a lot!
CHARACTERS:
Let's start out the Characters by the Main Man! Bruce Wayne/Batman!

Bruce Wayne is great in this movie the emotion that he has throughout the movie is great! His dilemma in this film with not being Batman anymore and the pressures that brings inside him is amazing. The Journey he has to go on to become Batman again is great as well. So overall Bale did an excellent job this time around!
Bane's Turn!

Bane was great villain in this movie!
He was very Menacing in this film while he wasn't the best villain in the trilogy he was defiantly a pleasant treat in there though. I really liked him in this film. Also his voice in the film was funny at times and other was very menacing overall his voice was okay i could understand him but there are few times when i was asking my best-friend what was it he said. Tom Hardy did a very good job!
Selina Kyle/Catwoman!

She was Outstanding in this film she did everything Catwoman would do in games, comics, and TV shows. Every little thing she did either made me laugh or made me see some things from her point of view. When she teams up with Batman it was like i was Playing Arkham City all over again. Overall Anne Hathaway did an Great Job!!
OTHER CHARACTERS:

Everyone From Gordon To Miranda Tate did an excellent job with this movie. Everyone did their job very well with their roles and i really liked them. Good Job Guys!
ACTION/VISUALS:
The visuals in the movie was very good there wasn't really that much in the special effects in this movie which i really like. Most of the movie was practical except The Batplane or Bat. and i really love that i wonder how they did most of those action scenes without it. Excellent work on the action and Visuals!!
OVERALL:
This movie was a Great ending to a great Trilogy i really liked to Loved the 3 movies and i give a lot of credit to Christopher Nolan for his work and time spent on making these movies something to Remember as a Grade i'll say it was better than The Dark Knight but wasn't better than Batman Begins so i would give The Batman Rises a B+! It was a Very good movie and a Great End To This Trilogy i say go see it if you didn't already!!

The Amazing Spider-Man Review!!

Hello Again To All! Today i am going to review a movie that has so far been having mixed reviews everywhere i look for reviews. This is a Reboot of in my mind a great trilogy of movies! *in my opinion the sole reason this movie was made is because Sony DID NOT want to give up the rights & give the rights back to Marvel* This Movie so far is a Box Office success and it's well deserved. Yes the movie i am talking about is.....

Yes The Amazing Spider-Man!
Now i can understand why this movie is getting crapped on by a lot of people because the fact it is an reboot. I can understand that the old trilogy is 5 years old but in their defense The Hulk reboot was 5 years after the first one as well *AND SPIDER-MAN 3 WAS NOT AS BAD AS THAT SH*T BOMB KNOWN AS 2003'S HULK!! UUGHH I HATE THAT MOVIE!* so i can see where the people behind this movie is coming from. But the question is..is this movie good? Well i am here to tell you.........It's pretty good. it met my expectations. I Liked it.
The Characters:
Now i get into the characters in this movie and they did their jobs right! i liked the performances in this movie. first and foremost Peter Parker/Spider-Man:

Andrew Garfield did a great Job as Peter. Personally i like Tobey's take on the character more than his but i don't take anything away from him at all he did a very fine job. The way he acted around Gwen is the same way most geeks would. And as soon as he got his powers he had more confidence which is normal but sometimes he got a little too confident at times, but overall a very good take on the character to the movie.
next up Gwen Stacy!!



Emma Stone did a fine job as Gwen. She defiantly seemed like a very confident girl in the movie. But in some scenes she basically did the traditional girl in movie role *which is do something stupid & risk getting killed or caught* *spoiler alert*  but THANKFULLY she didn't get token by The Lizard at the end!  which is A MAJOR DIFFERENCE between her and Mary-Jane in the Original trilogy. Overall She did an Good Job!
Curt Connors/The Lizard:

To Be A little honest here i liked His Performance but he was just a cookie cutter villain in this movie. His intention was completely Predictable , and he didn't seem sympathetic to me at all. he wasn't like Doc Ock or  The Green Goblin in the original trilogy where they were captivating in their own way, and The Lizard didn't feel as sympathetic as Doc Ock especially. Rhys Ifans did an okay Job and i liked it!
Other Characters:
They all did a very fine job from Dennis Leary to Sally field they all did good with what they had and i enjoyed their performances.
STORY:
Now the story of the film is where i really liked it but it didn't have that "Untold Story" that they was promoting for the movie. It was basically the same movie as the first movie back in 2002! and that's the main problem i had with this movie. I knew everything that was going to happen. BUT! I did have a good time watching it, because it was basically a different version of the first movie and i really liked that a lot.\
VISUALS/ACTION SCENES:
The action scenes in this movie was Great! everything from Spidey's web swinging action to his few fights with the Lizard they were all great! and i love the way Spidey moves in the costume its great. it didn't give me the feeling of swinging as much as the first trilogy but it did look awesome!
OVERALL:
Overall i'll say it's a movie where it did have it's problems but as a movie it was very fun. But as a spider-man  movie it was just an okay ride. to the people who love the original trilogy you'll like this one. but to the fans that didn't really like the trilogy or thought it was "too cheesy" you'll love this one. I'll Give it an B-. I enjoyed the movie a lot but I'm more of a fan of the less serious and "more cheesy" Spider-Man Like in the past! But i think the sequel i'll enjoy a lot more than this one!

The Avengers Review!!


Hey what is up everybody! I'm sorry Me & My Partner Dacia haven't been on at all these last few months because of personal issues school and what-not. BUT Reggie's BACK NOW THANKFULLY & Hopefully i Stay On!! Now The 1st Review I'll be doing is one of the Most Anticipated Movies of 2012 a movie that i have been waiting on for years You all know the movie It's...
File:TheAvengers2012Poster.jpg

Now I'm just going to start and say THIS MOVIE WAS AMAZING!! Review Over Bye!...................................
     I'm Kidding but this movie was the greatest comic-book movie i have ever seen bar none! They nailed everything i ever wanted in a Avengers movie. The 1st thing was something i already knew they were going to knock out of the park...The Characters.
  From all of the previous movies *which i am going to review at a later date.* They all nailed there specific roles Perfectly. From Tony Stark to Nick Fury everyone did there best and it showed 100%. Everyone did  a Great JOB!! BUT! The Main Person i was most Skeptical about was Mark Ruffalo's Bruce Banner/Hulk!!
File:Hulk Avengers.jpg
 He Actually surprised me a lot in this movie. While i did miss Ed Norton because of his performance i really did like Ruffalo's interpretation of what Banner & Hulk is. It was like it was a continuation & a new twist to the character which is Great. Amazing Job Ruffalo you deserve it!

   Now The Story: the story for the movie is very basic but the way they execute it is what makes it amazing Though. Loved The Story! P.s. Can't really say much more because alot of people STILL hasn't seen it yet.


  The Affects were Amazing as well it was like some of the things *including Hulk* looked very real. and i loved that.


    OVERALL: If you couldn't tell by now I LOVED this movie so much it actually is one of my Favorite Movies Of all Time! If you couldn't catch it i HIGHLY recommend you buy the DVD/Blu-ray and watch it on the biggest screen in your house And Enjoy the Ride! This Movie is a definite A+++++++ Movie!!
