About the blog:

Well, hello!
Thanks for stopping by to read my opinions about movies that I see. Some are older and most are new. Some I go to see in the theaters (both live performances and movies) and some I watch from the comfort of my own couch and even more, I will watch from the amazing Netflix app.
Of course, these will be my personal thoughts about the targeted item, however, it will give you an idea of whether it's a colossal waste of time or worth a shot!

MY REVIEW
So, in all honesty, I was prepared for this to be a "sequel." you know, where the first one was decent and the second is passable...(Ant-Man, my review from July 2015). It wasn't bad. It was actually pretty funny in some spots. It just wan't THAT great. I never found myself rooting for the hero/heores. Ant-Man is a very typical anti-hero with him being an ex-con and just kind of passable in most areas.

What I DID LIKE about this movie:
  • It was fun. Plenty of one-liners and moments that are pretty amusing, not enough to make me laugh out loud though.

What I DID NOT LIKE about this movie:
  • Could the writers have added a few more words? It's like they just re-used the word QUANTUM to further the plot. I mean it was like 46 times!
  • Pacing could have been smoother.
  • Maybe one too many jokes. It felt a little overwhelming with stuff that you were supposed to find funny.
On a more personal note..... 
Had a great time this week with my friend Missy and her little mini person, Ava. That kid is growing on he, but I would not trade my cats for anything. Also, F&%k Pollen!
