Depending on our budget, time, what's out, etc. I'll go a long period of time of not seeing a movie in theaters and then all of a sudden BAM! It's like 3 movies in 2 weeks. Lucky me.
Any excuse to relax in air conditioning, sneak in a Starbucks [Yes, I do that] and sit down for a few hours straight I'll take. Cause really if I'm paying $10 a person we better be paying attention!
Being pregnant has hampered my fun a little bit, sometimes I'm forced to give in and crawl with a big preggo belly over 5 people given the space you get in an airplane to go to the bathroom 1-5 times, but oh the things I'll do for some good entertainment. Since I already did my Brave review I'll do a comparison of the last two movies I saw Friday night & today.
Magic Mike vs. The Amazing Spider-Man. Cause really I'm sure if you're a guy you just can't quite decide which one is going to get your hard earned money right?
Go see Magic Mike if......
You could care less about an actual "story line," I mean obviously you knew this wasn't the movie for that.
You enjoyed the pictures of Matthew McConaughey naked playing the bongos, just add 10 years to that.
You like hella good old 90's music like Genuwine - Riding My Pony.
You enjoy movies where the characters have nicknames like Texas, The Kid, Big Dick Rich, etc.
You like the main female leads in a movie to look kind of like normal girls, with weird staring problems, that you can't quite understand what the main character sees in them.
You need people to talk really slowly around you otherwise you won't catch what they're saying.
You like seeing older [40+] women literally run into a theatre and hear giggling, hooting & whistling through out the movie.
Don't see it if.......
You're going for Joe Mangianello and you have a weird thing for Alcide from True Blood. He's not in it as much as you'd like. Trust me.
You have a problem with ass & thongs. On men.
You can't stand the guy from I am Number 4. You'll see him, a lot.
Final review:
It's a stripper movie. Basically, a not as gross way to see ALMOST everything. Interrupted by slow talking, a baby pig & some hurricanes.
4 out of 5 ass cheeks.
Go see The Amazing Spider-Man if......
You hate Tobey Maguire's face. You don't have to see it at all!
You have a slight girl crush on Emma Stone like I do. I don't know why I think she's so awesome....Superbad maybe?
Skateboarding is an aphrodisiac for you.
You're a comic book nerd, or married to one.
You saw Never Let Me Go, Andrew Garfield is an amazing actor.
You've visited New York City, once, in a snow blizzard, and still get super excited to watch a movie where you can say "I've been there!"
You like movies with teasers after the credits that later on you can talk about with other people who knew better to just leave when the movie was "over."
Don't see it if......
You're expecting someone to say "Go get 'em Tiger." It won't happen.
You have a phobia of lizards especially the gross part when their tails break off and they wiggle on their own. Eww.
You can only think of Sally Fields as Cybil. You'll have to get over that one or just be confused the whole movie.
You want to hear Danny Elfman do the same musical score he always does, he didn't do this one.
Final review:
An awesome comic book adaptation, I personally kinda, almost, maybe? liked it more than The Avengers. Good story line that follow the comic books well. Really good acting and a nice change of pace, for me, comic book movie wise.
2 Spidey-Thumbs up!
