Movies To See: June
This is our second month running this column and as everyone here at Exploding Wumpus liked to work on it and give their opinion, we have decided to bring it back. There isn’t a lot of movies coming out this month that look good, sadly. But we will make do.
The Incredible Hulk
Release: June 13th
Links: IMDB, Rotten Tomatoes, Wikipedia
Opinions:
Nowned: I was extremely surprised how good this movie looks. At first i was expecting this to be the one bad comic book movie coming out this summer as pretty much every other one actually looks good, which is kinda amazing considering last summer, not to mention the fact that the 2003 Hulk movie was terrible. I especially like how the plot is actually unique for a change. I’ve got high expectations for this movie.
Bluesun: I have never really liked Hulk especially since the 2003 release. I also see a striking similarity between Hulk and Ironman: Main character attacked by military, becomes hero, military creates copy that is better, two fight each other, main character wins, the end.
Wanted
Release: June 27th
Links: IMDB, Rotten Tomatoes, Wikipedia
Opinions:
Nowned: I’m probably one of the few people who have actually read the Wanted comic book series that this movies is based on but just for the rest of you to know this movie is absolutely nothing like the comic book. I don’t even know how they can say that this is based on the comic book series they aren’t alike at all. In the comic books the characters are all superheros(villians, actually) that are in a league of super villians that control the world. Now how the heck does that compare to assasins? All of this aside, this movie still looks epic. Nice to see Angolina Jolie back in full form. Can’t wait to see this.
Bluesun: Looks good, a new idea to spice it up. Has a kind of Jumper feel to it though
Wall-E
Release: June 27th
Links: IMDB, Rotten Tomatoes, Wikipedia
Opinions:
Nowned: Everyone who knows me knows that i’m a huge fan of animated movie and especially Pixar movies. I have been looking forward to this movie ever since i heard about it when i saw the first teaser at a Ratatouille prescreening last year. Hopefully ill go see this on opening night.
Bluesun: I think this movie looks very good although if there is too much talking in “robot” it might ruin the movie.
