The Town (2010)
Directed by Ben Affleck



As he plans his next job, a longtime thief tries to balance his feelings for a bank manager connected to one of his earlier heists, as well as the FBI agent looking to bring him and his crew down.


Usually I like robbery stuff, but this movie is too long and too much parts are unnecessary. However, action scenes are well done.

This one is different from the others. It shows that nice and careful human beings are in this world too and we surprisingly love each of them. I had a lot of feels during the movie, from worst to best.

Iron Man 3 (2013)

Directed by Ruben Fleischer



Los Angeles, 1949: A secret crew of police officers led by two determined sergeants work together in an effort to take down the ruthless mob king Mickey Cohen who runs the city.


Not very interesting, some stupid lines. Action scenes are entertaining. Ryan & Josh are great too.

Directed by Doug Liman



A teenager with teleportation abilities must suddenly finds himself in the middle of an ancient war between those like him and their sworn annihilators.


I have to admit I liked Griffin much more than Race, mainly because Race is really stupid. The plot should be about the self-centred him & his girlfriend, not about Jumpers & Paladins.

One of my fave.

The last one. The Battle of Hogwarts gave me a lot of feels, but I really wanted to see the other characters more, not only the 3 friends. The way Severus died was shocking for me: the blood, the sound of his body against the window. Nothing to do with the others who died under a spell.

Thanks to his fractured state of mind and her vivid imagination, the line between fiction and reality blurs as the tale advances.


We are talking a lot about Lee but Catinca, the little girl, is stunning too. Everything in that movie is stunning, every character and every place.
