Gambit (2012)

I found this pretty humorous. However, I had my doubts because I'm not a huge Cameron Diez fan(I know, crazy!)

The Fault in Our Stars (2014)

“You don’t get to choose if you get hurt in this world… but you do have some say in who hurts you.”

“Some people don’t understand the promises they’re making when they make them.”
“Right, of course. But you keep the promise anyway. That’s what love is. Love is keeping the promise anyway.”

"It's a metaphor, see: You put the killing thing right between your teeth, but you don't give it the power to do its killing.”

Bonnie and Clyde

When I started this I didn't realize it was nearly a 3 hour long mini series. I probably wouldn't have invested the tie had I known. But I a so glad that I did!

My Girl (1991)

Cute. A little cliche. Not really my kind of movie, but it was cute.

"Feel my ora!"
"I don't think I'm allowed..."

Honey, I Shrunk the Kids (1989)

I'm shocked how many people rated this low! How can you not like it? I mean, it isn't my favorite by a long shot, but it's a classic.

Homefront (2013)

Entertaining. Typical Jason Statham. James Franco totally kills it, as usual.

Despicable Me 2 (2013)

It's offical. Dreamworks knows how to make sequels. Disney does not. This was as good as the first.

Margo: Hey, what celebrity do you look like?
Gru: Uh, Bruce Willis.
Margo: Mmm, no.
Agnes: Humpty Dumpty!
Edith: Ooh, Gollum!

Rio 2 (2014)

Meh on the movie. But the animation was stunning. I was more interested in figuring out what kind of birds were featured.

Divergent (2014)

I FINALLY got to watch this! I have to say that I loved it. I know, I know. I'm biased because I loved the books, but I thought that they did a good job bringing it to the screen.
There were a few things that annoyed me, of course. They didn't develop the relationships as well as in the book. They didn't described the factions or the reason FOR the factions very well.
But overall it was good.
