Another Sad Love Song (or story, rather) (Beautiful Creatures, Die Hard 5)

"Beautiful Creatures" - this is your basic movie is about a witch (caster) who will get full use of her powers when she turns 16. The twist of the movie, is a love interest w/ a mortal which could quite possibly determine the fate of each of them. This movie is about 2 hrs, 15 minutes, and had decent special effects. It reminded me a lot of the movie, "The Covenant," however, there was no love interest and was a lot more clear. I left the movie w/ tons of questions. I'm glad I didn't research if 1st, b/c I probably would've waited had I known it was part of a series of books, like the twilight or harry potter books. So, if you want to see a movie similar to the ones mentioned, go for it. Just keep in mind you may have questions, lol.

Review: 3/5 stars

"A Good Day to Die Hard" - John McLane is back as NYPD's favorite "save the world all by himself cop," lol! The action starts w/in 15 minutes (which is good, as the movie is only 97 minutes long). This time, john takes off to Russia to save his son, and ends up in several jaw-dropping, sometimes a tad bit unbelievable stunts.  Several scenes were very similar to the 1st Die Hard though, and I would definitely say this is one of my favorite in the series. While some movie series definitely don't need to go on, I can't say that I get tired of John McLane saving the world from would-be terrorists, lol. Out of the 5, I would rank them as: part 1, part 5, part 4, part 3, part 2. I know every1 loves part 3, but, I wasn't really a fan. Anyway, if you're in the mood for an action movie from beginning to end, this is it!

Rating: 4/5

Enjoy!
