Let's see now, where to begin...
Captain America: The Winter Soldier - miles ahead of the first one if I may say so, which I enjoyed as well for what it's worth. It's more a political thriller than a superhero movie and that's in this case a good thing. As someone who reads comic books a lot I already knew identity of the Winter Soldier, it did not hinder the overall experience though as it was all presented rather well. Great action scenes, they finally made Captain America a true badass. Tons of easter eggs Love the after credits scene, Quicksilver is next to Magneto and Cable my favorite mutant, can't wait for AOU. Easily one of the best Marvel movies to date... 9/10 Hail Hydra!
RoboCop (2014) - not quite a remake, more a different take on Robocop. It wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be. They focused more on certain themes, some of which they managed to pull off I feel like morality of it all, and less on action which was disappointing for a fan of original one. No piggy squeal though. Overall, it was surprisingly enjoyable... 6/10
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 - mixed feeling right here. Electro is probably the best part of the movie, love the appearance, his theme and the sound he creates is awesome, and the fact that you can actually somewhat sympathize with him. I enjoyed most of the humor. Great action scenes and CGI. I can't believe I'll say this but 3D wasn't half that bad either. On the other hand friendship between Peter and Harry was rushed to say the least. The infamous scene with Gwen Stacy, which I already knew about, didn't do anything for me. No after credits scene, unless you count that X-Men promo, overall it felt like one huge tease for Sinister Six... 7/10
The Conjuring - as someone who finds most horror movies utterly laughable I must say I was pleasantly surprised by The Conjuring. The first half of the movie was simply superb, the intrigue, mystery, tense atmosphere, it had me on my toes and actually managed to scare me few times. Sadly, the second half of the movie isn't as strong, usual horror nonsense. Still, a pretty good movie... 7.5/10
Looking at some of my old scores, I'm way too generous.
I'll be seeing Godzilla on friday, read lots of not so good things about it, perhaps I should lower my expectations.
