Alice Through the Looking Glass in IMAX 3D

The other big sequel this Memorial Day weekend snags the IMAX screens and is a visual sugar rush from producer Tim Burton.  Alice returns to Wonderland to help save her friend the Mad Hatter, played by Johnny Depp, before Time, played by Sacha Baron Cohen, runs out. A good family fun film for this weekend with a good message on the meaning and need for family.  I don't see this coming close to the numbers that X-Men: Apocalypse will do this weekend but definitely a great alternative if you hit the theater.

Today's featured horror tee...Critters from Fright Rags!

Today's featured horror tee is Stephen Herek's Critters from Fright Rags.


Here is the original movie trailer for your enjoyment!

X-Men: Apocalypse

The big movie this Memorial Day weekend has arrived and it delivers a good tight story with cool obligatory hero moments that do not disappoint.  The Apocalypse story arc from the Marvel comics has been greatly compressed and streamline but the heart of the story is still there even for the most obsessive fan boy.  The standout characters are Magneto, Mystique, Nightcrawler and of course Jean Grey played by Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, Kodi Smit-McPhee and Sophie Turner.  When Magneto and Jean Grey unleash their powers it is cinematic magic that would have been awesome to see in IMAX but alas Disney's Alice Through the Looking Glass has those screens locked up this weekend. And yes you have to stay through the credits - fan boys will get what I mean once they decipher what it means for the future of the X-Men cinematic universe.

Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising

And the comedy sequels continue this year with the inevitable follow up to Neighbors with the fraternity being superseded by a sorority.  The hook for me was Chloe Grace Moretz but unfortunately this is another weak outing for Chloe following on the lackluster The 5th Wave. There are very few laugh out load moments with the highlight being the daughter's favorite toy.  For having an R rating there was a serious lack of scantily clad sorority girls.  A definite pass at the movies but maybe salvageable after a few beers or bong hits vegging out on your couch when it hits VOD.

Criminal



DC and Marvel alums abound in this latest film featuring an aging actor who tries to kick ass while not looking like your grandpa needing a nap in the living room recliner.  The story is OK with some decent action but nothing innovative is brought to the screen to make this retread of a story stand out. Ryan Reynolds gets the short straw when it comes to screen time which is really a shame with his mega-hit, Deadpool, still raking in the cash from long runs in the theater and just hitting VOD. There is a lot of ensemble star power fueling this film that begs the question on what did they see in the script that made them all want to be a part of it.  I really hope it was just not for a pay check.
