RISE OF THE PLANET OF THE APES, AWESOME
Do you have your Action/Adventure fill for summer, or are you ready for more? Try Rise of the Planet of the Apes for a thriller that will have you on the edge of your seat. I like the way Director Rupert Wyatt makes sure each exciting scene develops with emotion, first creating interest, then suspense finalizing in aggressive thrills.
THE CHANGE UP, MISSES TERRIBLY

Beautifully photographed the drama Snow Flower and the Secret Fan provides a stunning window into the lives of four women. Although the film is a bit long, I found the journey well worth taking. Although a major chick flick, the film still plays well to older males.

Seriously now, there will be no guns allowed in the movie theatre, not even toy type. If you want some action with great special effects that make a film come alive with awesome space creatures then check this one out.
