Moonrise Kingdom (2012)
Everything a movie should be
Perfect cast, well written, solid acting, beautiful scenery and colors, as well as a sweeping sometimes oddball soundtrack make this a great film. As the title says, Moonrise kingdom is everything a movie should be and it will leave you wanting more from every character. None of it feels choppy or "tacked on" mainly because Anderson manages to immerse the viewer in his world, a whimsical and vivid place where we believe anything can happen. The movie centers around two strange kids who discover they love each other and decide to run away from their strange lives. The ensuing "rescue attempt" by basically the whole community manages to be quirky, hilarious, and compelling at all times, and also gives us insight and backstory on the fabulous supporting cast. I don't want to spoil the movie for you so.... if you're reading this because you're unsure, I'd recommend either read a few more reviews or just go see it. It's honestly a gem of a movie and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
Madea's Witness Protection (2012)
Shame on you Hollywood
I laughed twice throughout the entire movie, and once was at the bloopers. To say this movie is bad is an understatement. To those that reviewed it 10/10, what does a 5/10 look like to you? Or a 1/10?! Off the charts funny? I bet you said the same thing about "Jack and Jill". How many fart/genitalia/overused jokes can they cram into one movie you ask? Oh just plenty. I'm only going to spoil one specific scene (even though the plot is transparent from the start) SPOILER: There's a scene where Madea goes to fly and has to go through TSA screening. Not only do they send her through the X-ray machine AND Full body scanner, they sexually grope her as well. Now as half the theater erupted in laughter I wondered..."Why do these people laugh? Am I missing the joke?" It's almost like people go to the movies today and FORCE themselves to laugh at anything that maybe perceived as a joke. I wish moviegoers would take a stand and force Hollywood to improve the quality of movies instead of just allowing them to keep churning out the same old recycled trash. If you're still reading at this point, take a hint and avoid this movie, even if someone else buys your ticket.
