The Wolverine: Basic storyline, poor CGI, stunning action

The Wolverine is a movie that I did nit have high expectations for. Except the fact that the movie was about Wolverine, insertion thrilled for the movie. I think this movie was basically a filler and a transition for Days of Future Past. The overall storyline of the film was pretty weak which I expected. The whole feeling of the film, however, was light and enjoyable. Nothing drastic or surprising happened. The action scenes were brilliant but the CGI was just so awful. It was literally some of the worst CGI I've seen. I think the CGI killed the movie for me. Not to the point where I hated it, I mean the CGI can always be overlooked. But my final score is based in his light and entertaining thus movie was. 4/5 stars. 

Despicable Me 2: poor plot structure, humorous dialogue, enjoyable movie

Despicable Me 2 was one of the funniest films this year. The storyline is focused on Gru and provides a more personal following of this hilarious character. Now, the plot isn't anything extraordinary but the rest of the movie is simply fantastic. The dialogue is hilarious, the characters are likable, and the while atmosphere is light and lively. This was a very fun movie that can have the whole family laughing. 4.5/5 stars.
