The Amazing Spider-Man

My rating: 

2 days ago, I went to see the movie The Amazing Spider-Man with my friend and his parents. I really enjoyed the movie and now it is one of my favorites. It is about a teenage orphan named Peter Parker, who lives with his aunt and uncle, gets bit by a spider and gets new powers like web-shooting and wall-climbing. He soon becomes Spider-Man. But when Dr. Curt Connors, a man who used to work with Peter’s father, tries to use lizard DNA to get his arm back, he turns into The Lizard and tries to turn all living human beings into lizards. Now Spider-Man must defeat The Lizard and save New York City. In the end, Spider-Man replaces the lizard DNA cloud with an antidote cloud, which turns The Lizard back into Dr. Curt Connors. I really liked Andrew Garfield’s role as Peter Parker/ Spider-Man and Emma Stone’s role as Gwen Stacy. I would recommend this movie for anyone who likes Marvel movies.

Star Wars: Attack of the Clones

My rating: 

2 days ago, I rewatched Star Wars: Attack of the Clones. I really enjoyed watching the movie and even though it’s not the best Star Wars movie, I think it’s a very cool movie. It is about 2 Jedi, Obi-Wan and Anakin, who continue to defend the galaxy from the Dark Side as the encounter many enemies on the way. I would recommend this movie for kids and adults. I also really like the action sequences in the movie.

Also, here is the trailer of Star Wars: Attack of the Clones:

Hugo

My rating: 

Today, I saw the movie Hugo with my brother. We had ordered it from Netflix because my family wanted to see it, but I had already seen it twice before: once in the movie theater with my friend, and another time at another friend’s house. It is about a 12-year old orphaned boy named Hugo Cabret, who wants to find a secret message from his father, who had died in a fire. Later,he meets a girl named Isabelle, who is the goddaughter of a real filmmaker named Georges Melies, and she also has a key that will fit into an automaton that Hugo is trying to reprair. I enjoyed the movie a lot and thought it was sometimes funny. I would reccomend this movie for everyone, including adults.

A Thousand Words

3 months ago, I went to see the movie A Thousand Words with my friend and his brother. I really enjoyed the movie and thought it was funny. It is about a man named Jack McCall, who makes book deals. One day, a tree mysteriously grows in his yard with 1,000 leaves on it. Every time Jack says a word, a leaf falls off the tree. When all the leaves fall off the tree, Jack and the tree will die. Using those words, Jack must find what matters most to him. I would recommend this movie for kids around my age (10) or older and adults. A Thousand Words is not in theaters anymore, but it is now on DVD and Blu-ray, so now you can see it on DVD or Blu-ray!

Like Mike 2: Streetball

Yesterday, my family and I saw the movie Like Mike 2: Streetball. We had ordered it from Netflix because we enjoyed the first movie. The first movie is about a 13-year old orphan named Calvin Cambridge, who likes playing basketball. One day, he finds an old pair of Michael Jordan’s sneakers, which makes him play basketball really good. After a halftime show(a 1-on-1 game against a basketball player named Tracy Reynolds, which he wins), he is offered to join an NBA team called the Los Angeles Knights. The second movie is about another 13-year old boy named Jerome Jenkins, Jr., who likes playing basketball with his 2 friends, Nathan and Rodney. One day, he finds another old pair of Michael Jordan’s sneakers, which also makes him play basketball really good. After a basketball competition, he is offered to join an NBA streetball team known as ”Game On”. I enjoyed both movies and I think you would enjoy them, too. I would reccomend this movie for everyone, including adults.
