• Maze Runner Review

    Maze Runner TheatreMaze Runner…Hmmm.

    When it first came out, I was like, “Maybe.” Had it not been for my good friend, Courtney, I wouldn’t have gone.

    Having said that…I’m kinda glad I went.

    First.

    Here’s the synopsis from IMDB:

    Maze RunnerThomas is deposited in a community of boys after his memory is erased, soon learning they’re all trapped in a maze that will require him to join forces with fellow “runners” for a shot at escape.

    Okay, I have to say, THOMAS rocked this character. The whole concept was really awesome. I haven’t read the book or anything, and I hear that the movie didn’t quite live up to the book.

    Then again, when DOES a movie do that, right?

    Each of the characters were pretty interesting for the most part. And a couple pretty predictable/stereotypical, which was a bummer, but it didn’t overshadow the movie enough for me to dislike it.

    I gave it a 7/10 on IMDB–but I probably won’t be reading the books. Overall, this isn’t quite my genre, but I wish all the best for the movie and books.

    What’d you guys think of this movie?

    Sincerely,

  • Avatar–What’d you think?

    December 29, 2009 /


    In yesterday’s post, I mentioned I’d do a little review of the movie Avatar.

    Me and my sweet hubby went to see it Christmas Day at the IMAX in Glendale, near the football stadium. Great area, lots of excitement.

    We got there early, thankfully, because it was packed.

    We donned our 3D glasses, which reminded me of the glasses in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

    Oh, but it was worth it. I went to 3D movies as a kid, but don’t really remember much about them. But let me tell you, 3D in the IMAX was awesome. I fought the urge to swat things I thought were about to smack me in my face. It was GREAT!

    Even better–THE MOVIE–I didn’t realize it was a bit of a romance, actually. And I love a great romance!! I was really worried that it would be too animated for my liking. But I was proven wrong. Yes, lots of animation, but it is so advanced, I often forgot it was animation.

    Wow! If I had some sort of ranking system here on the Light of Truth blog, I’d rank it the highest possible. Go see it. If you have, did you like it?
