Ghostbusters (2016 release)

It was a fine comedy!
It follows a ghost invasion in NY and there are these scientist ladies who try to "bust them".
The plot was easy to understand (as it should have been), script was good, characters were okay (didn't like the Chris Hemsworths's role - but I believe many people found him funny).
I was at the cinema, I had like two louder laughs and I watched the movie with a smile on my face mostly. I think it was because of Kate McKinnon and Kristen Wiig - as I have been a fan of both for many (not that many, but 3, 4 years count as many, right?) years because of Saturday Night Live.
Either I was just in that mood when I like basically anything or I did have an enjoyable time because of this film. Can't promise anything.
Will I forget this comedy?
Yes. I believe I will. Quite fast but it doesn't change the fact that I smiled and didn't find it annoying or not funny at all (as those are mostly the cases for me and USA comedy genre).

13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers Of Benghazi

What a powerful war movie from Michael Bay!
It's based on true events and lets us in on an attack on a U.S. compound in Libya in 2012 and shows how a few soldiers deal with the situation and try to do their best.
Actually this is how I imagine (and thank God I have to imagine!) some kind of war battle could look like - nothing's certain, nothing's over quickly and there are so many guns, shooting, sketchy people and chaos all around. Emotions rise high more from the inside but as a viewer you can just sense how everything is so tense and hyper sensitive. I don't care for historical accuracy. It felt real.

Amazing and diverse camera shots, charming colors, beautiful, nature capturing sights at times, believable dialogues and what a cast! They are not your typical Hollywood A-list action movie actors and that, for me, somehow gave an extra appreciation. My "favorite performance" star goes to Pablo Schreiber although John Krasinski still stays as one of my favorites - period.
It was nearly 3 hours long but I felt like it was necessary so that they could show different aspects when dealing with attacks. Those hours actually flew by. 
It doesn't come naturally for me to feel involved when it's pretty much a "guy movie" (there was one female character) because I can't really relate but this time I was so in - I cared and rooted for almost every character.
And if I care and can get emotionally somewhere and nothing really bothers me, for me, it's an excellent movie.
Thank you.

Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping

Not a comedy in my eyes. More like - a stupid movie (sorry fans and those who'll watch and like it). Didn't find anything funny. Anything. Only thing I liked was Justin Timberlakes' tiny role and his characters voice. Oh, and the way it was delivered - as a documentary. Which it wasn't obviously.
This "comedy" is about a former boy band member who wants to remain popular and will do different (stupid) things to save his fame.
Great comedian ensemble but the movie itself just wasn't for me.

The Legend Of Tarzan

The good out of this film:

• Christoph Waltz - always a "good" villain.  

• Alexander Skarsgårds' eight-pack (not a six-pack! EIGHT!!)  He worked on his body for nine months! Ate just chicken breast and broccoli and worked out! Gotta give him a credit!

• Nature! 
• Jane had balls. By which I mean she wasn't made weak. She had courage and strength and didn't rely just on "her man". Which for me is always pleasurable to see. 

The bad: 

• I missed the sound. The sound of the jungle, the sound of waterfalls, the cracking noises of branches and trees. The sound was missing
• I needed more of Alexander Skarsgårds' eight-pack
• I wanted more nature and wild-life, more adventures

It's an okay movie to see in cinemas and less from okay when watching at home I think.
