I think 2014 overall was a pretty good year for movies. Better than most years anyway.

 

I don't know. Most of these movies don't seem that amazing:

 

Transformers: Age of Extinction Paramount Pictures $1,091,404,499

The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies Warner Bros. / New Line Cinema / MGM $955,113,783

Guardians of the Galaxy Marvel Studios $774,176,600

Maleficent Walt Disney Pictures $758,654,942

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1 Lionsgate Films $752,100,229

X-Men: Days of Future Past 20th Century Fox $748,121,534

Captain America: The Winter Soldier Marvel Studios $714,766,572

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 Columbia Pictures $709,582,323

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes 20th Century Fox $708,835,589

Interstellar Paramount Pictures / Warner Bros. $672,974,414

 

I should remind myself not to copy-paste charts to BSN anymore...

Interstellar.

So, mediocre was Interstellar?

Interstellar.
 
I thought it was mediocre.

In some ways I can see this, as the overall story was reminiscent of something seen on older TV: The Outer Limits. But as I quite liked that show, and was quite entertained by the telling of the story (minus any feelings on the Toy robots), it ranked higher on my own review.

I gave it a solid 8.7

[The Devlish Redhead]

You give John Carter a 7 but Dredd a 6.5? wat

I had more fun with John Carter then Dredd...... Everyone is different.

 

Frankly speaking the Stallone version of Judge Dredd  sucked!!!!

 

Stallone never talks without sounding like he has a mouth full of sh!t.

 

also came home today with Dragon Age Ultimate  Edition

Pls give Stallone a break on his speech. He overcame hardships to speak this well:

"Birth complications, caused by forceps, resulted in paralysis of the lower left side of his face, manifested by a perennial snarl and slurred speech." - IMDB

Watched Harry Potter 2; not as good as the first. I wonder why the series has such popularity, but may stick it out to see if it gets better. - 6/10

IMO The best movies were 3, 5, and 7. All of them are good though. And I HIGHLY suggest reading the books too! They're not just for kids. Book 5 (The Order of The Phoenix) Is probably one of the best books I've ever read. Though very few things compare to the pure glee and fantastical excitement I had when I read the first.

Ron Weasley's is the only young actor from these H.P movies that I like. Both Hermione and Harry Potter actors are annoying.

Well I did not know that.... OK I'll cut him a break. Didn't know that.

I thought Gravity was a much better take on space and was a far more entertaining film overall. The acting, the story, the pacing, the visuals and audio (the evolution and rebirth of the main character being shown with unique and fascinating imagery was brilliant), were all superior to Nolan's film, in my opinion. I also like the soundtrack far more in Gravity.

 

Interstellar had strong acting from it's lead, but poor acting from the supporting cast. It also has a very convoluted and messy plot, a generic save the world "love transcends both time and space" scenario that we've seen in dozens of films, poor pacing (the movie always seemed like it was in a rush when all it really needed to do was slow down), a meaningless cameo by Matt Damon (seriously, why was he even in this movie?), poorly written and sometimes downright cringe worthy dialogue between the actors, I mean... I could go on and on about why this film is a mediocre film and a downright terrible film by the standards set by Nolan himself with previous films like The Prestige and The Dark Knight.

While there are similarities, I contend these are two different types of Sci-Fi; Interstellar being more Sci-Fi/ Fantasy, and I enjoyed both.

And while MM did a fine job of acting, I was also rather taken by the young Murphy and both robotic VA's. And the plot was indeed about 'Love Conquers All', but I rather enjoyed the simplistic way this was presented. And seeing Matt Damon as the villain gave me something to cheer about really; am not a fan generally. And as far as writing, the entire starting scene at the school discussing the history of the space program hit home with me; am tired of revisionist historians interjecting some PC nonsense into the facts.

Liked both films for different reasons.

Harry Potter 3 - Better than the first two, though still not inspiring the enjoyment gained from watching 'The Sword In the Stone' as a youth. Still, this does help me continue on to see the next one. 7/10

I think that's almost an irrelevant point. I would argue that Gravity does more things right than Interstellar does and that makes it a better film overall from an objective point of view; which you enjoy more is of course up to you.

Called it! The fourth one is good. Things take a darker turn and stick with it from there onward though. Pretty awesome stuff in the fourth tbh.

That is one messed up Rubik's Cube

Think I used to have a small desk calendar that looked like the more solid version. Makes me miss Robby the Robot and Lost In Space versions, as well as the machines seen in Silent Running.

One of the few works I find better than the original work (come at me bro)
