Impact Posted July 12, 2014 Author Share Posted July 12, 2014 (edited) Dawn of the Planet of the Apes 3:50 PM-Not that crowded but this was not at the newer theater that is more crowded then the one I was at. Trailers:Lucy-So tired of this trailer! Gone Girl-Looks dark and depressing, well it is David Fincher. Mokingjay 1-This amusing teaser is back. Guardians-Laughs during this one. Sin City 2-Forgot about this movie. Exodus-Looks good, even if Bale looks miscasted in this (I still think Kingsley was great in the made for TV version from the 90s) Movie: Pretty good. Though the opening is a bit slow. I really dislike Koba, that is one memorable villain! The music was great also. Some amusing moments also in the film. And I actually think I have determined the 3rd movies title! I give this a A- for now. Edited July 12, 2014 by Impact 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And did they run the Begin Again trailer TWICE? Nah, that was a typo Dawn of the Planet of the Apes in 3-D July 14, 4:20 PM, 15% full Cinemark, Valparaiso, IN Trailers - no reactions, so I'll give you my friends' reactions The Judge - "ooh, that looks good. I love RDJ and Vera Famiga" Gone Girl - "that looks awesome too." Hercules 3D cell phone ad - "oh god no" Hercules 3D - "that movie looks spectacularly shitty" Guardians of the Galaxy 3D - "Yeah, I think I will go see it with you at the premiere." Sin City: A Dame to Kill For 3D - "I liked the first one." Exodus: Gods and Kings 3D - "Won't beat the Prince of Egypt, but still looks good" Excellent movie. Crowd kinda sucked with people laughing at not funny stuff. Still, one of the best movies of the summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DerekShooster Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 It has been a while... I've seen a lot this summer, but been busy. Anyway, enjoy: Snowpiercer 7:00PM Wednesday, July 23rd Coolidge Theater Theater Capacity: 440 (15% full... honestly, not a bad turnout for a Wednesday evening in summer. Mixed audience, not especially older) Ticket Price: $11.00 Concessions: n/a TRAILERS: A Most Wanted Man - great cast, but kind of long, uninteresting trailer. Weak reaction. Calvary - looks like a great dark comedy... either that, or I completely misread the trailer. Okay crowd reaction THE FILM: Tonight was one of those increasingly rare instances where I went to see this movie with almost no knowledge of who the stars were, what it was about, and what the critics thought. I just assumed it must be good because The Coolidge theater was playing it and because at least a couple friends had encouraged me to watch. As it turned out, Snowpiercer is one of the most interesting and thought-provoking films I've seen all year. For a story as confined to its surroundings as this one is--completely taking place on a train circumnavigating the globe--Snowpiercer is surprisingly broad in its ideas and boundless in its creativity. Chris Evans stars as the methodical steerage passenger aboard the back of the titular snow-piercing train in a post-apocalyptic Earth covered in snow and ice. It's hard to compare with his performance in this year's Captain America: The Winter Soldier, but based on these two roles I think Chris Evans has mastered both the physical prowess and emotional stability that make for a worthy movie hero. Although he's the central character and has no shortage of memorable supporting stars, it is Tilda Swinton who stole each of her moments on-screen and really impressed considering how uncharacteristic the role was (who knew she could be so funny?!). Considering Snowpiercer was more or less an independent film (I think), I was very satisfied with the special effects employed to believably create the world on this train and the frozen world around it. A long list of unforgettable shots and stunning set designs are outweighed only by the sociologically compelling story the film explores. I've since spoken to a few people about the film: one person compared it to The Hunger Games; and another compared it to The Fifth Element. All things considered, I actually think the Fifth Element comparison is pretty spot-on, even though the subjects are so otherwise different, and this film is arguably further evolved. I really enjoyed this, as did the person I watched with. There wasn't applause or anything when the film ended, but it's hardly the kind of movie you'd expect applause from at the end either. I certainly hope more people watch this than the box office so far would indicate. It's one of the only interesting movies playing in theaters right now. Experience - 29/30 Story/Writing - 20/20 Acting - 14/15 (I wouldn't be surprised if Tilda Swinton gets awards buzz for this) Tech Specs (Editing, Effects, Cinematography) - 13/15 Directing - 10/10 Music - 9/10 THE VERDICT: 95/100, A+ Comments, likes, shares, and feedback are always appreciated. Thank you! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impact Posted August 2, 2014 Author Share Posted August 2, 2014 Just saw GalaxyReview will be later.But I did love it. Well the theater was not as crowded-but there was a flash flood warning around town (Yeah we finally had rain) and as I said before this theater is not as crowded as it use to be. Trailers: Maze Runner: I think I saw the entire movie in this trailer-felt almost as long as a trailer from the 60s/70s! (And felt like a THG ripoff) Interstellar: Looks pretty good. MJ1: Every time I've seen a trailer its a different teaser! Some talking. Into the Woods: Actually does not look that bad. Some ladies were saying something. Big Hero 6: Quite a bit of laughs. Hobbit 3: Looks great, some ladies in front of me were saying "Yay want to see that" Movie: Very good. The opening was actually quite emotional for a Marvel film. The visuals were great and I really enjoyed Groot and Rocket. If you said I would of loved this a year ago I think you were crazy. Quite fun as well.And the end credits scene....OH MY GOSH. The entire audience was going....well..........yeah! They were amazed. A- 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
