The 5 Films i Enjoyed The Most This Summer

5. Transformers Dark Of The Moon.

Look, is it good.... NO. If it fun... YES. The story may be trite and the acting may be sub-par but the action is fucking epic. I enjoyed the hell out of it and the fact that they FINALLY turned Optimus Prime into a full fledged bad-ass caused me to have a grin from ear to ear. So all you haters of Bay-hem shut the fuck up and just enjoy the ride... cause it's a good one.

4. Fright Night

Did i see it in 3d... no. 3d is a joke and i hope it dies soon. In Fright Nights entire 2 hr run maybe 2 mins could have been used for 3d. The film was fun and i enjoyed it quite a bit. I am a diehard fan of the original and i thought this was a good offshoot from that film. The original still owns this one but that primarily has to do with it's casting choices and my affinity for traditional effects over cgi. If you are a Doctor Who fan do yourself a favor and watch this movie. David Tennant for life.

3. Captain America

I have talked to many people who felt the film was lacking or that it was too slow. It is a period piece plain and simple and a damn fine one at that. Chris Evans proved everyone wrong and brought a strong performance to what could have been a one note role. Captain America was epic and i thought Director Joe Johnston brought some of that sparkle that he created on The Rocketeer and injected it into the film.  Since Disney now owns the Marvel film rights and they also own The Rocketeer someone give me a team up picture stat.

2. Thor And X-men First Class

OK, out of these two films Thor is the better movie. It's epic and if you are a fan of the early Jack Kirby Stan Lee era you where spider-webbing all over the theater like i was. Although the earth bound content was weak Asgard kicked all kinds of ass.
First Class was just a good Xmen film. Yes, it blows apart comic continuity but who gives a shit. Just give me a good movie and that's what Matthew Vaughn did. Buy the Blu-Ray and shut  down your fan-boy bitching and maybe we will actually get a good Wolverine movie for once.

1. Attack The Block

I have no words to describe how great this film is. As soon as you get a chance watch it. It is literally one of the best films to not only come out this summer but this year. What are you waiting for? Find this film somewhere and watch it NOW!!! Check out the trailer below.
