Month 3 Recap (July 2013)
Hello Followers, Well…This is It, The Final Month Recap of
the Summer Movie Season. It’s been an awesome month and a memorable 3 months
overall. Let’s take a look at how the films in July faired.
Here Are Some Of Standout Films That Were Released This Month
Pacific Rim
Guillermo
del Toro’s Monster/Robot epic was a monumental eye candy extravaganza that no
question entertained audiences who were lucky enough to see it. However, as
good as it was it tragically suffered a defeat in the US Box Office losing to
the Adam Sandler comedy Grown Ups 2. The defeat at the box office sent a devastating
chill over people who enjoyed the movie. Any hopes for a sequel were dashed in
an instant. Luckily, a record breaking box office run overseas has resurrected talks
of a sequel. This is great news knowing that possibly in a few years’ time, the
Jaegers and Kaiju will make a welcome return to the big screen.
Despicable Me 2
Following
the fun film from 2010, Despicable Me 2 was met with both praise and criticism.
Being that the first film was so memorable, many fans expected the same from
the next entry. Most fans said that they were very satisfied with what the film
brought the second time around, others weren’t to pleased. Overall, the film
had a record breaking July 4th weekend box office performance and
may very well be in contention for best animated film of the year.
The Wolverine
Serving
as the first of two X-Men films in back to back years, The Wolverine saw the return of
Hugh Jackman as the title character. Being the last wolverine had a standalone
movie resulted in a brutal panning from fans, The Wolverine served as a redemption
movie as well as a new entry in the X-Men franchise. The film itself delivered
a solid story, but slaked on action and overall impact. As a result the film
just fizzed into a lead up into next year’s film. X-Men Days of Future’s Past
due out Summer 2014. The film ultimately took the top spot at the box office
and now fans eagerly await the all-star mutant fest that awaits them on Memorial
Day next year.
