Directed by Seth Gordon, Baywatch follows devoted lifeguard Mitch Buchannon, played by Dwayne Johnson.
He butts heads with a brash recruit, played by Zac Efron. Together, they uncover a local criminal plot that threatens the Bay’s future.
I never watched the TV Show, and I don’t think I will see the movie. Still, I wonder why the men are clad more than the women.
Directed by Amma Asante, A United Kingdom follows the lives of two very extraordinary people during a time of significant change in South Africa.
Based on the true story of the forbidden love between King Seretse Khama of Botswana, played by David Oyelowo, and Ruth Williams, played by Rosamund Pike, a white woman from London, which caused an international uproar when they married in the late 1940s, just as apartheid was introduced in South Africa, a decision that altered the course of African history.
It’s good to see Pike in this role. Definitely, it is a unique role from Gone Girl. Asante directed Belle, another true story about crossing the racial line.
Hot, hot, hot… When a wounded Christian Grey tries to entice a cautious Ana Steele back into his life, she demands a new arrangement before she will give him another chance. As the two build trust and find stability, shadowy figures from Christian’s past circle the couple, determined to destroy their hopes for a future together.
Shadowy figures? Interestingly, the second book is better than the first because the storyline brings new light to Christian Grey?
It’s getting darker.
No rules…no punishments…
Take option…two.
Based on the international bestseller by Dave Eggers and directed by James Ponsoldt, The Circle stars Emma Watson and Tom Hanks.
What a combination to behold. Watson’s career is really doing well after her Harry Potter days.
The Circle is a thrilling modern morality tale following Mae, played by Watson, as she rises through the ranks of the world’s largest tech and social media company.
She’s encouraged by company founder Eamon Bailey, played by Hanks, to live her life with complete transparency. But no one is safe when everyone is watching.
The trailer seems a bit convoluted, without giving away the story or letting you read the book. It is hard to tell what is happening, but I can’t agree more with the idea that knowledge is power.
With that, the thriller looks intense, and Watson plays well with Hanks.
Directed by Alex Kurtzman, a remake is a remake, but Tom Cruise is a megastar. He headlines a spectacular, all-new cinematic version of the legend that has fascinated cultures worldwide since the dawn of civilization — The Mummy.
Though safely entombed in a tomb deep beneath the unforgiving desert, an ancient princess, played by Sofia Boutella, awakens with a destiny that brings her into our current day, bringing with her malevolence grown over millennia and terrors that defy human comprehension.
From the Middle East’s sweeping sands through hidden labyrinths under modern-day London, The Mummy brings a surprising intensity and balance of wonder and thrills in an imaginative new take that ushers in a new world of gods and monsters.
I love this story because it’s packed with action, never a dull moment.
Cruise stars with a brilliant cast, including Annabelle Wallis, Jake Johnson, Courtney B. Vance, and Russell Crowe.
The movie will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end.
