Review:

In Norse Mythology, there is a god of thunder who uses his hammer to stomp out his enemies. Thor (Chris Hemsworth) is his name and he is a powerful immortal whose arrogance gets him into trouble and when his actions start a war among the ancients, he is cast out of Asgard to the modern day mortal realm, where Odin (Anthony Hopkins) hopes he will learn humility. While there, he meets Jane Foster (Natalie Portman) who finds him battered from his fall to Earth. Her team, along with Darcy Lewis (Kat Dennings) and their mentor Dr. Selvig (Stellan Skarsgard) want to find the gateway for which he came from as a matter of science. In Thor’s absence on Earth, however, there is a power struggle in Asgard when Odin falls into a deep sleep and only Thor can bring peace back to the kingdom. But will his brother Loki give up the reigns so easily? With the help of his new friends, the Earth and the mythological kingdom may have a chance. Read more…

If you’ve seen the first one, you know that Little Red Riding Hood is no pushover. The small, but tough Red (Hayden Panettiere) now seeks guidance on how to improve her skills from the mysterious Sisterhood, but when her Granny (Glenn Close) is kidnapped, along with Hansel and Gretel (Bill Hader and Amy Poehler), it’s time for her to leave the fold and take action. Under the direction of Mr. Flippers (David Ogden Steirs), the frog turned PI, and with the help of the Big Bad Wolf (Patrick Warburton), she goes on the journey to save those in trouble. Read more…

Review:

The big night is approaching for a group of high school seniors, each with their own trial and tribulations over the most important event of their lives. Prom is what Nova (Aimee Teegarten) has always dreamed about and she pictures the perfect night with the perfect guy. And she is determined as class president and head of the prom committee to make that happen, but when the guy she hopes will ask simply wants to carpool and not bring her to the dance, it turns her world upside down. All her planning may be for naught if she doesn’t even have a date. And to make matters worse, the principal assigns a trouble making, yet handsome loner Jesse (Thomas McDonell) who doesn’t believe in prom to help her or not graduate. Can this mismatched pair wind up finding happiness and will Nova get her happy ending? You’ll just have to see. Meanwhile other students are also getting ready for the dance of the year, but their quest is not without issues either. Mei (Yin Chang) and Tyler (De’Vaughn Nixon) find that there are revelations that are revealed that threaten their relationship. And of course, no movie about a dance would be complete without the one bumbling nerd like character Lucas (played this time by Nolan Sotillo) who will do anything to get a date at all. Read more…

He wants them and Dom dead. On the other hand, an FBI agent named Hobbs (Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson) wants them in prison and is very good at getting what he wants. With the help of a local police officer named Elena (Elsa Pataky), he plans to catch them easily, but things don’t always go as planned.
