Furious 7

Furious 7
"Furious 7" has an action-packed and fast-paced plot, as one would suspect. It also features the last performance of Paul Walker as Brian O'Conner; as most people probably know, Walker died near the end of making this movie.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen

I know a lot of young people and "Transformers" fans enjoy the battles, and the special effects in this film are amazing, [...]

This film has some great acting and a good story line. It being a Navy-based film, I felt like they did a good job representing the Academy and what goes on in it. There were many great lessons learned such as not giving up just because things get tough,and trying your hardest even though you might [...]
