Serving
as a sequel to 2012’s The Amazing Spider-Man, Director Marc Webb returns with
the anticipated sequel The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Andrew Garfield returns as
Peter Parker as he begins to fully embrace his role and responsibilities as
Spider-Man. However, he continues to search for answers as he tries to uncover
clues to the mysterious disappearance of his parents. He also maintains a
romantic relationship with his girlfriend Gwen Stacy, despite her father’s
warning to stay away. As he digs deeper into the secrets being kept from him,
he is reunited with his childhood friend Harry Osborn and also encounters new
villous threats such as Rhino and Electro. As Peter faces possibly his biggest
challenge yet, Peter will soon discover that though secrets have their cost.
The truth can also hold its share of pain as well. Headlined by the stellar

| Aaron Taylor Johnson joins Elizabeth Olsen and Bryan Cranston in the retelling of Godzilla |
Back in
1998, Roland Emmerich tried to rejuvenate the classic Japanese monster
Godzilla. But despite the effort, the finished product left a bitter taste in
fans and critics mouths. 16 year later, Director Garth Edwards is taking a
swing at introducing the iconic beast to the 21st century. Behind
earth shattering action, stunning visual effects, and a solid cast headlined by
Aaron Taylor Johnson, Elizabeth Olsen, and Bryon Cranston, this remade version
of the famous king of the monsters may be just the film that fans, critics, and
the movie nation have been waiting for.

X-Men: Days of Future Past (20th Century Fox/Marvel, May 23rd)
Based
on one of the best comic book arcs in the X-Men timeline, Director Bryan Singer
returns alongside X-Men veterans Hugh Jackman, Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellan,
Halle Berry, and more as they join X-Men newcomers Michael Fassbender, James
McAvoy, and Jennifer Lawrence in X: Men Days of Future Past. Set after the
events of X-Men: The Last Stand, Days of Future Past sees Wolverine, Storm,
Charles Xavier, Magneto, Kitty Pryde, and the rest of the X-Men in a deadly war
against mutant killing sentinels. With defeat inching closer, Charles Xavier
asks Logan to travel into the past to team up with the younger versions of
Xavier and Magneto to ensure the survival of not only mutant kind but mankind.
What can only be described as the biggest X-Men movie ever, Bryan Singer brings
together the X-Men of the old generation and new generation which promises to
be a spectacle on Memorial Day.
Maleficent (Walt
Disney Pictures, May 30th)
 |
| Angelina Jolie transforms herself into one of the most fearsome villains in Disney History |
One of
the all-time Disney classics Sleeping Beauty has been watched by generations of
moviegoers for years. But what seems to be just as memorable as the story, is
the presence of antagonist Maleficent. However, if you have just seen the 1959
classic, you may not be looking at the full picture. Disney is fixing that by
offering fans a re-imagining of the story by telling it from Maleficent’s point
of view. Headlined by Academy Award nominee Angelina Jolie, the film offers a
new perspective on one of Disney’s beloved films and gives fans a deeper more
in depth look at one of the greatest Disney villains of all time.
As you can probably tell, there is a lot to look forward to
in the next few weeks. Stay tuned for more post and the reviews for these
films. Till next time followers.
