I didn't get to any movies at the cinema this past weekend, but I did watch three movies at home.
The Maze Runner
Earth to Echo
Dracula Untold
The Maze Runner was quite good. It started slowly and built. I hadn't read the books, or watched the previews, so I had no idea what was going on, just like the main character, Thomas. Now Thomas was an okay character, but I have to admit I liked most of the other characters more. My total favorite was Newt.
Earth to Echo was absolutely adorable and fun. It's kind of like a modern day ET and I loved the way it was presented as if Tuck, an enthusiastic yahoo vlogger, had filmed the whole thing using his phone, a hidden glasses camera and an actual camcorder. That really set it in the modern day. My favorite character was Munch. I do love the goofy definitely not 'normal' characters.
Dracula Untold was not a bad movie, but I felt like there was something missing. It could have been a great movie if it just had... I don't know, something more. However, Luke Evans as the title character was super yummy in this. Super yummy. I could talk about the effects, which were neat and made for some great visuals, but really, I'm over here in the shallow end thinking about how yummy Vlad was ;)

I enjoyed Dracula Untold but I agree it may have something to do with how yummy Vlad was
ReplyDeleteI loved Maze Runner - but then I had read the books. I adore Thomas and Newt, but Minho holds a special place in my heart as well.
ReplyDeleteWe have not seen Earth to Echo yet. We'll definitely add that one to our list :D
And I can see Dracula Untold will be strictly for the eye candy :D
