Movies watched 2014

Awesome:
47 Ronin - very well done. Avoids that Hollywood tendency of rewriting the essence of a tale.

Captain America: Winter Soldier
Gravity - great effects, acting, story, pacing; everything!
Guardians of the Galaxy
Gone Girl
St. Vincent - Bill Murray rocks in this one!

Good movie:
Edge of Tomorrow - last act was predictable, otherwise, this would have been awesome
Enders Game - glad I stopped reading the book before watching the movie. That twist in the final battle elevated the movie from OK to pretty-good.

Godzilla - more Godzilla needed!

How to Train your Dragon 2

Lego Movie - everything is awesome....

Need for Speed

Saving Mr. Banks - very endearing tale.

The Equalizer - Denzel is superb

The Wolf of Wall Street - yeah, I'll believe that's what wall street traders do...

The World's End

Thor: Dark World - definitely shows an improving trend in the series

Transcendence

X-Men: Days of Future Past

Just OK:

22 Jump Street - last 5 minutes were the funniest...
Anchorman 2 - quite good in an over-the-top way
Don Jon - not bad

In the World - a bit slow going most of the movie, but the last 30 min was choice.

Jack Ryan - this latest installment in the Jack Ryan franchise is the most boring...
John Wick
Journey to the West -
Lucy - harping on the 10% brain-use thing killed any suspension of disbelief for me. Calling it mutant powers would have been better.
Monuments Men - definitely could have been better
Mr. Peabody and Sherman

Robocop - lacks the rise and fall of the original

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug - this series just doesn't hold my attention; hope the last movie is better

The Hunger Games: Catching Fire

The Maze Runner - another teen death-game

Not worth the seconds spent watching:

A Million Ways to Die in the West

As Above So Below

Divergent
Hercules

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
The November Man
Transformers: Age of Extinction - Michael Bay. 'nuff said.
