Ant-Man

This movie was pretty good. Not up to par like other films from Marvel characters have been, but it was good.
     It was bit slow at the start. I think a bit more editing of certain scenes would have helped. Also a change on how Scott ended up in trouble, instead of telling it, it should have been portrayed. It would have helped the story move more seamlessly, and helped the audience make a closer connection with the main character. But the story was good and ants have been made cute and even almost cuddly again, like in Honey, I Shrunk the Kids.
   Overall, it does have likable characters, a balance with a bit of humor, and a mix of good ole emotional stuff.
     Yeah, worth the 3-d theater experience. I doubt it would be quite the same on TV.

Terminator Genisys

First off I have seen all the terminator films. This on I had my doubts. An older terminator, circling back to Kyle Reese and Sarah Conner.
     But I was surprised. The story was good and great action of course, but I did miss some of those terminator/human jokes and interactions that occur between characters. Just wasn't like the other films.
     But this was worth the time to go see in a theater. Still after four films a good ride.
