I've never seen anyone more captivating than Angelina Jolie in this movie. Wow.

Critics dismissed First Knight as a cliched Hollywood production and they wouldn't be wrong. But as much as the snobby side of me wanted to dismiss the film, I really liked this film.

The film flows quickly without any boring scenes. Although the film is a cliched love triangle, I thought it was handled with maturity. Furthermore, I found it refreshing from the usual Arthurian films. It focuses on Lancelot (Richard Gere) as the central focus.

Yes, Richard Gere looks too old, too modern, and American. Yes, the chemistry between three principles is tepid at times. But for what it's worth, Richard Gere is charismatic, the sword fights are pretty realistic and not over the top.

Sean Connery plays Arthur with dignity and looks amazing. And Julia Ormond is beautiful. But my favorite is Liam Cunningham (best known as Davos "the Onion knight" from Game of Thrones). Although his part is minor, he looks badass.

Cat dead, details later.

Re-Animator has so many great moments! The ending, decapitated head giving head, the amazing sequence with all the re-animated bodies in the morgue, the way Dr. Herbert West drives that bone-saw through the first re-animated corpse's chest! The cat, every scene were the FX team show off how good they are!

Yes, the gore is amazing, almost everything looks so damn amazing and I always want to know how they did it. I think it so underrated sometimes these days because CGI but movies like Re-Animator shows us that practical effects still look damn amazing. In the end, Re-Animator is well worth the watch!

I went into the theatre not knowing what this movie was about but knowing Cate Blanchett would do a good job either way & that turned out to be very true. I found Cate's character to be relatable in several ways and she did a great job portraying the many emotions of Bernadette. I thought the movie would spend more time showing Bernadette's journey in Antarctica but I loved it nonethless and some great cinematography here. Emma Nelson as Bree Branch should be commended here as her character was a joy to watch as was her bond with her mother - and it didn't feel forced. The only real flaw this movie had was those shoddy photoshops showing Bernadette's early life - really?! Should have asked Cate's fandom on twitter, they'd have provided hundreds for fun.

The definition of a movie that’s competent but devoid of anything interesting.

3.5/10

Despite predictability, this was everything I could have wanted/expected out of this event! Pairing this with Stand & Deliver earlier in the day, it was a rock solid day of wrestling for WWE.

While the top tier of premium events (to me) have something unique or memorable with the matches, this one doesn’t quite stand out in that way. There was several great payoff storylines (Zayn, Ripley, Mysterio, Theory) that have impact for fans of the franchise.

Excited to see what tomorrow brings (hopefully more surprises), and ultimately what these two new champions bring from the story front on a weekly basis.

Best Match: Owen/Zayn vs The Usos

Rating: 4/5 - 8.5/10 - Would Recommend
