It has been brought to my attention that I might be the only one in the world that had a negative view of Guardians of the Galaxy - I fully believe that it was a difference of opinion.
However, I fully swing with the majority vote on the newest Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie.
I have quite a big problem of finding my way to the theater, especially when it is discount day for college students. My friend and I were a little skeptical going into the movie, but we were wonderfully surprised.
The CGI was impressive, the actions scenes were a decent amount of time and didn't take away from the plot, the TMNT were very much themselves and acted their age (which I was actually worried about), and Megan Fox proved that she can, in fact, act. Even if her character was pointless through basically all but one scene of the movie.
We were given some nice background of everyone at appropriate times and Mikey allowed quite a bit of comedic relief. I enjoyed the fairly predictable hero and villain plot only because I believe it added a bit of the original kid magic into the movie.
I enjoyed my time. I didn't look at my watch wondering when it would be over and I wasn't surprised for the bit of set up for a second movie at the end.
The movie is pretty family friendly, and one I might find myself watching again.
