We're 50/50 on our summer movie pics. The Transformer thread got me wondering about others out there.
Chef- quiet, sweet story. We might go again and take our teens.
Neighbors- time I'll never get back. No point.
What have you seen?

Only summer movie I've seen so far is The Fault In Our Stars along w/ every other teenage girl in America. hahahaha!! It was ok but I can see why teen & preteen girls think it's the best movie ever.

The Fault in Our Stars.... Does that count? I was bound and determined not to cry. But I was a slobbery mess halfway in... Still loved it, though...

Hubby and I saw 22 Jump Street and it was good. I liked The Fault in Our Stars. We took our grandson to see How to Train Your Dragon 2 and it was good also.

I might be the only one not to have read Fault In Our Stars. Can it stand alone without book?

We have seen Maleficent, Godzilla, and X-Men: Days of Futures Past.
We enjoyed them all. Maleficent was the best. But the others were pretty good.

I had never heard of this book or movie until it became an Instagram phenomenon for all of my daughter's friends who posted pics of themselves at the theatre w/ "FIOS" & "okay" under the comments section.

The only thing I think I've seen is Amazing Spiderman which I thought was pretty good. DD 15 raves about all the John Green books which she read after reading The Fault in Our Stars. I bought the book but haven't caught a time I feel emotionally strong enough to start it (DD read it online). I know she would like to see it in the cinema but, given that I cry at adverts even, I really can't see myself putting myself through the wringer in public.
I would like to see Chef,the Peas that have seen it have given it good reviews. I'm just wondering who I can persuade to come with me. DH never goes to the cinema as he always falls asleep.
Oh and youngest DD saw Maleficent Friday night as a birthday treat (BFF's birthday) so I don't need to see that one until it comes out on dvd.
I've not even seen that much advertised I like the look of enough to pay the £££ for the cinema rather than waiting for the dvd. Exception being the one about the same day repeating itself (I can't even remember the title) - is it with Tom Cruise? I think I could get DS to come to that with me.

X-Men: Days of Future Past -- great movie! Edge of Tomorrow -- I'm surprised I like this one as much as I do, I thought it was really good! Good action and good dialog/humor. I want to see Fault In Our Stars before it leaves the theaters. I really like Shailene Woodley in movies - hated her TV show.

Maleficent. Hands down. I've watched it three times and want to go again before "it leaves the big screen." Perhaps it's because she's such an incredibly gorgeous woman, but the costumes are outrageously wonderful.

My mom and I had a double feature movie day last week and saw How to train your Dragon and Maleficent.
Dragon - awesome. Really enjoyed it, will probably end up with it on DVD at some point. Maleficent - fantastic. I already want to see it again. Luckily, we have a $2 movie theatre, so I'll probably see it a couple times there once it starts showing.
I'll probably see the winter soldier in the next week now that it is finally at the cheap theatre. As you can probably tell, I don't spend much money on seeing movies as soon as they are released.

Saw Maleficent and enjoyed it.
Saw 22 Jump Street and I think it was someone here who said it was the stupidest.movie.ever., but I thought it was hilarious, in just a summer-popcorn-flick kind of way.
XMen was also good.

We saw the Fault in our Stars, like everyone else.
We also saw Blended with Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler. I loved this movie!

I took DD to see Maleficent and really enjoyed it. I don't typically like Angelina Jolie but the movie and story were so well done.

Another vote for Maleficent. It was the best movie I have seen in a long time.
Granted, I don't get out much. The only other movies I've seen in the theater in the past six months are Lone Survivor, Muppets Most Wanted, Bears and The Lego Movie.
