Here are a few other films that I have seen and rated. For some of the films, as well as in the future, I will write a brief sentence or so on what I thought. Reviewer: Pat Brennan Dracula Untold (2014) Rating: 1.5/4 Director: Gary Shore Writers: Matt Sazama, Burke Sharpless & Bram Stoker (characters) Cast: Luke Evans, Dominic Cooper, Charles Dance, & Sarah Gordon - This film had the potential to be pretty decent due to the casting early on, but the final product did not end up that way. The acting wasn't bad and was probably the only salvageable part of the film (mainly Charles Dance) but other than that it's easy to overlook the rest of the film. The plot was rushed/did not make any sense and the editing seemed to be done poorly. ——————————————– Love, Rosie (2014) Rating: 3/4 Director: Christian Ditter Writers: Juliette Towhidi (screenplay) & Cecelia Ahern (novel) Cast: Lily Collins & Sam Clafin - I am all for "Rom-coms" if they are done right, meaning that they take the idea of what a romantic comedy is and have an original twist to it or a different style than almost every other romantic comedy. What this film does will is explore the relationship between the two characters and tell the story in a way that made the film flow smoothly. By creating a separation between the two, it allowed the audience to feel both characters emotions and relationship, as well as made the story feel real and relatable. All in all, a surprisingly good film. ——————————————– Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day (2014) Rating: 1.5/4 Director: Miguel Artera Writers: Rob Lieber (screenplay) & Judith Viorst (novel) Cast: Steve Carell, Jennifer Garner, Dylan Minnette, Kerris Dorsey, & Ed Oxenbould ——————————————– The Spongebob Movie: Sponge Out of Water (2014)
Rating: 3/4 Director: Paul Tibbitt Writers: Glenn Berger & Jonathan Aibel Cast: Antonio Benderas, Tom Kenny, Bill Fagerbakke, Clancey Brown, Carolyn Lawerence, Rodger Bumpass, & Mr. Lawerence - What can I say, Spongebob is probably one of my favorite shows of all time. I hadn't really planned on seeing this in the theater but I am actually kind of glad that I did. The only part that I kind of had a problem with was the live-action versions of the characters but that was only a smaller portion of the film. I think that if you like Spongebob, you will certainly enjoy this film. ——————————————–
