Child 44

Mystery drama takes place right after World War 2. Russia has a child serial killer on the loose and the facts are being covered up by military high ups. A lone military officer decides to take matters into his own hands only to be shipped off to something akin to Siberia. Well done but very dark 2+ hours. 3 bananas

Run All Night

Starring Liam Nessan as an ex mob hitman who is forced to kill his ex bosses son. Needless to say his boss is not a happy camper and puts hit out on on Nessan's son. Rest of the movie is centered around how many people die due to revenge seeking. 1 1/2 bananas

Furious 7

Vin Diesels group assembles again with fast cars,and unbelieveable stunts to help the CIA retrieve a computer program. Along the way, Jason Statham shows up to revenge his brothers shooting by Vin. Mass mayhem ensues in this wacky, stupid but exciting two hours of thrills. 2 1/2 bananas

Chappie

Not at all what I expected. A robot is developed with AI and seeks to have a conscious, along the way the robot is stolen by a couple of thugs and is taught the ways of the hood, becoming an offensive force when stealing. Entertaining up until the end when it goes off the rails. 2 1/2 bananas

Kingsman

Action comedy parody of the James Bond movies. Kingsman is a ultra secret British secret service that only recruits new members when one of its own dies. Colin Firth sends a new recruit through training while battling Samuel Jackson's plot to turn the world against it self through a very clever scheme. Both Firth and Jackson are terrific in their good guy bad guy roles. A fun two hours. 3  bananas.

The Wedding Ringer

Kevin Hart is hilarious in this comedy about a guy who is getting married and has no friends to ask to be in the wedding. Hart runs a service that supplies best man and others as needed. A bit raunchy but you'll be entertained throughout. Very, very funny!! 3 bananas

Taken 3

This time Liam Nesson's wife is killed which puts him on the hunt for the who and why. If you liked the first two this is more of the same, high octane kick ass mayhem dispensed by Liam, when someone gets in his way. Enjoyable no brainer for a rainy afternoon! 2 bananas

Black Sea

Submarine drama staring Jude Law as an unemployed submarine construction worker who with a group of Russian and British sub technicans purchase a decommisoned Russian sub to search for a WW2  German sub that was sunk with a fortune in gold in it. Fun  plot but many holes in the story. 2 bananas

American Sniper

True story of a US Navy Seal sniper's years spent killing the Iraqi bad guys while trying to adjust to his home life when on leave. After serving 4 tours of duty he comes home with PDST  and finds a way to deal with it only to end in a tragic circumstance. Chris Kyle's life is portrayed by a beefed up Bradley Cooper who gives a terrific portrayal of the sins of war. Apparently a bit  of the book has been altered for the movie, but nothing that takes away from the gruesomeness of war. A bit long but doesn't take long to get engrossed in. 3 1/2 bananas

Inherent Vice

Joaquin Phoenix is a stoned out private detective who is recruited to find his girl friends boss; she disappears and the story just  keeps getting crazier in this psychedelic drama/comedy. Josh Brolin, Owen Wilson and Reece Witherspoon add to the mayhem in this 1970 hippy pot smoking mystery. Totally out there man!! Fun if you can stay with it. 2 1/2 bananas
