5 Star Movies

5 Star Movies: 21 Jump Street, The Lorax, Safe House, The Master, The Hangover Part III

21 Jump Street: A very, very, very funny action comedy. Likable leads, legitimately great action sequences, Ice T just randomly crushing it – awesome. ****

The Lorax: The DreamWorks formula does its thing to the LORAX and I am not sure if it works folks. Think the first is very much the king. *1/2

Safe House: Like a parody of a Denzel Washington movie, though Denzel Washington is still awesome. A lot of stuff happens here and I’m not sure I cared about any of it. That’s bad. **

The Master: Not not entirely sure I “enjoyed it” or “would go back to it” but watching this movie unfold before me was incredible. I would legitimately use the word “enchanting” to describe this film. ****1/2

The Hangover Part III: The story ain’t much but the characters are still fun. I laughed sometimes. That’s good! And John Goodman!! ***
