If there is one thing I like, it is trends (because I am just oh so mainstream) I like to be the first to hear/see/wear, or whatever the newest thing. In this post I will talk about the movies of the summer.
#1: FINDING DORY
I was looking forward to this movie for over 3 years! It did not disappoint..from the heartfelt disney feels, to the witty humor, to the beautiful colors on the screen, Pixar did such a great job. I ended up seeing this movie 3 times in the theatre, because I'm crazy. lol
#2: KEANU
Saw this movie at the beginning of the summer. Was very funny, if you like Key and Peele. Also, the little kitten was adorable.
#3 MIKE AND DAVE NEED WEDDING DATES
I love all of these main actors (Zac Effron, Adam Devine, Anna Kendrick, Aubrey Plaza) I thought this movie was very funny, with over the top, stupid humor, which is my favorite humor. However, I would not watch this movie with my parents haha,, too many scenes where I felt bad I was laughing so much!
#4 ALICE THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS
So, I didn't see this movie, but my good friend did and said it was sort of confusing with lots of back and forth. Coming from a huge Disney fan, I wasn't that sad that I missed this one, which is too bad because the first movie was huge and a pretty big hit.
#5 THE SECRET LIFE OF PETS
I was really excited for this movie and I thought the concept was so creative! When I saw the movie, the beginning was great: i.e. the parts when you saw what the pets were doing when you left the house. But then when it went to more of a. "animal on an adventure through NY" kind of movie, I sort of lost interest. Overall it was a cute movie.
#6 PURGE: THE ELECTION YEAR
Maybe it was because I saw this movie at the Drive-ins, but I hated this one. I really liked the first two Purge movies because it had to do with everyday people. This one was very political and about the upper, political class.
#7 ZOOTOPIA
This movie came out at the beginning of the summer. Again, I don't know whats with these animated movies (besides finding dory) and the beginning being so cute, and then the end gets over the top, semi violent, and stretched out. Besides that, Disney did a great job with the cute characters, the detail, and the witty jokes that are funny to all ages.
#8 POPSTAR
Another over the top stupid humor movie. I am a big fan of Andy Samberg so this movie was really funny to me, but I can see how a lot of people may not like it. The parody songs were hilarious, and my friends and I still play them when we are together.
#9 NERVE
I loved this movie!! Love Dave Franco and Emma Roberts, loved the idea and concept of this movie and how social media can really take over the world. I got so into this movie when I watched it and was literally sweating during some of the dares these kids were doing. I would definitely see this movie again!
