- DirectorPhil LordChristopher MillerStarsChris PrattWill FerrellElizabeth BanksAn ordinary LEGO construction worker, thought to be the prophesied as "special", is recruited to join a quest to stop an evil tyrant from gluing the LEGO universe into eternal stasis.OK. This is my Favorite Movie of the Year. The animation is amazing and the characters are extremely colorful. All of the story was amazing and had political commentary on Free Speech and other problems happening in the world with family messages as well. This is one hell of a movie and cannot wait for the sequel and spin offs in the next year. The audience I went with was sold out and everyone applauded at the end.
- DirectorDon HallChris WilliamsStarsRyan PotterScott AdsitJamie ChungA special bond develops between plus-sized inflatable robot Baymax and prodigy Hiro Hamada, who together team up with a group of friends to form a band of high-tech heroes.YES! A Mildly late edition is Big Hero 6. This movie has commentary on Technology and how it should be used and if we are ready to face the consequences of it. But it is also a movie about Friendship. The Characters have great personalities the animation is stunning, the movie has lots of heart and has inspired my storytelling skills even more!
- DirectorFrank PavichStarsAlejandro JodorowskyMichel SeydouxH.R. GigerThe story of cult film director Alejandro Jodorowsky's ambitious but ultimately doomed film adaptation of the seminal science fiction novel.Jodorowsky's Dune is an example of perfect storytelling. The Cult Filmmaker Jodorowsky is intriguing to look at as it takes a look at his unfinished film that has inspired many filmmakers such as Ridley Scott and George Lucas. Very well made and a must have for film lovers.
- DirectorBryan SingerStarsPatrick StewartIan McKellenHugh JackmanThe X-Men send Wolverine to the past in a desperate effort to change history and prevent an event that results in doom for both humans and mutants.This is my favorite Superhero Film (Aside from BH6) that really was a huge hit for me. I thought the first prequel was good, but this blew my expectations right away. This whole film has lots of great action scenes and has our favorite characters time traveling!
- DirectorDean DeBloisStarsJay BaruchelCate BlanchettGerard ButlerWhen Hiccup and Toothless discover an ice cave that is home to hundreds of new wild dragons and the mysterious Dragon Rider, the two friends find themselves at the center of a battle to protect the peace.Dreamworks has returned after many wavy mishaps and I will leave it at that.
- DirectorLasse HallströmStarsHelen MirrenOm PuriManish DayalThe Kadam family leaves India for France where they open a restaurant directly across the road from Madame Mallory's Michelin-starred eatery.The Feel Good Film of the year. More movies should be like this and take lessons on how to please and make an audience happy. Not sadden them with pointless anger and death. Everyone was excellent in this film and the chemistry between the families are great. I hope more people will go looking for this film and support it.
- DirectorRidley ScottStarsChristian BaleJoel EdgertonBen KingsleyThe defiant leader Moses rises up against Egyptian Pharaoh Ramses II, setting six hundred thousand slaves on a monumental journey of escape from Egypt and its terrifying cycle of deadly plagues.Well, It's not Lawrence or King of Kings, but it is an Epic that is pretty dang good. I love the grand scale of it put into 2 1/2 hours.
- DirectorAnthony RussoJoe RussoStarsChris EvansSamuel L. JacksonScarlett JohanssonAs Steve Rogers struggles to embrace his role in the modern world, he teams up with a fellow Avenger and S.H.I.E.L.D agent, Black Widow, to battle a new threat from history: an assassin known as the Winter Soldier.Marvel made a blast into 2014 with a well made and very good film that was better than any of their 2013 films. Much more well developed and Mature then any 2013 Marvel Film, exciting and cool.
- DirectorKevin FinnJames RolfeStarsJames RolfeJeremy SuarezSarah GlendeningThe AVGN must overcome his phobia of the worst video game in the world to save his fans.James Rolfe did amazing with the budget he had gotten from Kickstarter and is his homage to the great 50's Science Fiction films. Very funny, The scale is big and everyone is good and we see lots of cameos from Mike, Doug Walker and Kyle.
- DirectorWes AndersonStarsRalph FiennesF. Murray AbrahamMathieu AmalricA writer encounters the owner of an aging high-class hotel, who tells him of his early years serving as a lobby boy in the hotel's glorious years under an exceptional concierge.Finishing this list is Wes Anderson's weakest but visually appealing film Grand Budapest. Lots of wit for a dark film I must say. The characters are memorable, the regulars did great as always, the art direction is... MY GOD. Stunning. Cannot wait for Anderson's next film.
