  1. Ready Player One
Based on a book authored by Earnest Cline, Ready Player One is similar to the storyline of the Matrix, yet different enough to warrant its own attention. Taking place in a dystopian future, the movie finds the year 2045 filled with chaos and economic collapse. As a way to escape, the populace finds solace in a virtual reality world known as The Oasis created by an eccentric genius.

Based on the famous book, A Wrinkle in Time was widely anticipated and did not manage to live up to its unattainable hype. Nonetheless, the movie was critically acclaimed as a great film and still managed to please the masses.

Teamed up with a CIA agent who is tasked with making sure the mission is failsafe, the two embark on a spy war worthy of the big screen.
  1. Annihilation
Starring Natalie Portman, this science fiction psychological thriller sees an all woman science team investigating a zone known as "The Shimmer." In this shimmer zone all laws of nature and science cease to apply and what was once seen as common knowledge no longer can explain the innumerable phenomenon that begin to occur.
A good film can stimulate your mind but relax your psyche. Don't hesitate to enjoy one when you have the chance.

Edward Norton vs. Mark Ruffalo: The Hulk

Our superheroes have grown and become big names from Iron Man to Thor. Every superhero, who has a movie or is a supporting character, is known in the superhero universe. One age-old question within that universe involves the Incredible Hulk. This character's transformation has been an interesting one, to say nonetheless. We will be looking back and comparing the different Hulks. Edward Norton did a decent job at portraying the Hulk. This character isn't the easiest to play and does involve a lot of work. He definitely tried, but the storyline and character development didn't play in his favor. The timing of when the movie was released is also a playing a factor. This movie came out before the Marvel universe actually became a phenomenon. That didn't allow the studio and surrounding storylines to further his development. This movie was not a part of the growing universe but rather another superhero movie. Mark Ruffalo had a lot more background and information to work...

Wreck-It Ralph 2: What Is Going To Happen?

The internet has been buzzing with sequels. First, it was the Jumanji movie, then we got a teaser trailer for Incredibles 2 , and now we have the first trailer for Wreck-It Ralph 2 . Their marketing team did an excellent job on getting everyone to talk about the first trailer release date and getting everyone excited about it. A lot was relying on this first trailer and from what I have seen so far. I don't think it's going to do well. The first movie was a well thought out movie with heart, a fantastic story and developing characters. It was the first of it's kind, combining video games into real life, in a way. What everyone loved about the first movies was the fact that it involved video games that so many people grew up with and loved. It also includes the story from the villain's perspective, who just wanted to be good. It made you feel happy inside and appreciate the good things in life. A perfect children's movie. Now the second has a lot of work to beat...
