Last night I watched Maleficent: Mistress of Evil and it was action-packed, magical and visually stunning. Angelina Jolie was great at reprising her role as the villainous fawn creature. In this sequel, Maleficent starts a war with other fawn creatures after she finds out that her goddaughter Aurora is getting married. Michelle Pfeiffer was amazing as the queen in the movie. The visual effects were amazing. The best visual effects I've seen this year since Avengers: Endgame. To be honest, it's more fun and better than the first one. I've really enjoyed it. I give it 3 and a half out of 5 stars and a magical snap. Highly recommended for those who are fans of the first Maleficent movie. If you're gonna see one great fantasy film this weekend, make it Maleficent: Mistress of Evil. It's worth the watch.

Zombieland: Double Tap was the coolest horror comedy of the year! One of the best sequels I've seen this year. Just as good as the first one. It was so wonderful to see Woody Harrelson, Jesse Eisenberg, Emma Stone and Abigail Breslin reprise their roles as survivors Tallahassee, Columbus, Wichita and Little Rock. In this sequel, the four survivors travel the country once again and fight more zombies. Waiting 10 years for this sequel was worth the wait. I really enjoyed it. I'm gonna give it 4 out of 5 stars and a big snap. Highly recommend for anyone who are fans of the original Zombieland movie. If you're looking for a great horror sequel to see this season, make it Zombieland: Double Tap. It's worth the watch.

Gemini Man was an awesome action movie. It had lots of plot twists. The action was intense and the special effects were spectacular. Will Smith has step up his action hero game once again as an assassin who fights his own clone who happens to be a younger version of him. Special effects wizards de-aging Will Smith was the most incredible special effect in the film. This movie plays more like an average action film than a science fiction film. I give this one 3 and a half out of 5 stars and a big snap. I would recommend this movie to any Will Smith fan. If you're looking an awesome sci-fi action film to watch, make it Gemini Man. I really enjoyed it and so will you.

The new Addams Family was very funny, kooky and absolutely enjoyable. The animation is great. In this animated film, the creepy, spooky and kooky Addams clan must deal with life outside of their usual, scary world and an evil TV show host. This one was not as good as the original live-action version but much fun to watch. One of the funniest animated films I've seen this year. Great voiceover cast. Wonderful voiceover performances by Oscar Issac, Charlize Theron, Chloe Grace Moretz, Finn Wolfhard, Nick Kroll, Bette Midler, Snoop Dogg and Allison Janney. When I was watching this version, it was like watching the original Addams Family film all over again but in an animated and wisecracking way. I give this one 3 out of 5 stars and a weird snap. Highly recommended for those who love original Addams Family movies and TV shows. If you're looking for a funny animated film to see this weekend, make it The Addams Family.

Judy is such a great Hollywood biopic. It tells about legendary performer/actress Judy Garland (played by Oscar winner Renee Zellweger) when she goes on tour in 1968 London. I have to say Renee Zellweger made a great Judy Garland and this is her best role since Chicago and Cold Mountain. Zellweger's brilliant performance as Judy Garland blew me away. This movie is very Oscar worthy in so many ways. Very enjoyable. One of the best movies of 2019.  My rating: 4 and a half out of 5 stars and a big snap. Highly recommended for those who love great Hollywood biopics.

What can I say about the new Joker flick? It was the best origins film I've seen in my life. It had a lot of Taxi Driver-like vibes to it. Joaquin Phoenix did a brilliant job playing Arthur Fleck aka The Joker. His best performance since Walk the Line. In this film, Phoenix plays a failed comedian who turns to a life of crime in 1980s Gotham City. Robert De Niro was amazing as a Johnny Carson-like talk show host. Lots of Oscar-worthy potential to it. Director Todd Phillips did a great job directing this antihero drama. His best work since The Hangover. I give it 5 out of 5 stars and a happy snap. Highly recommended. If you're looking for a great movie to end your weekend off, make it Joker. I've really enjoyed it and so will you.
