The Incredible Hulk (2008)

The Incredible Hulk is full of action scenes that don't hold up all that well. You can easily see how far Marvel has come in the last ten years in terms of special effects and explosions in battle scenes. They've mastered the art. It's the Marvel Cinematic Universe's tenth anniversary and they're all back in theaters this week in IMAX. This is the only one I've never seen and I'm an AMC A-List member now, so why not?

Captain America: Civil War (2016)

I saw this movie a couple of months ago. I guess the fact that I can't really remember anything about it is a testament to its mediocrity. I'm getting kind of sick of these Marvel Avengers movies. They are all more or less the same--this one is 2.5 hours of the same. There are just too many superheroes in this movie. It's kind of difficult to care about any one of them when they are so numerous. They introduced a couple characters without any explanation. I'm sure the comic book geeks understood their presence no problem, but I was looking for some introduction. And quite frankly, I don't remember the previous films well enough to follow all of the other story lines either. It's all a big fight. Some cool special effects I guess. I know I had more to say about it two months ago, but I just can't remember anymore.
