Ooh, see I really loved the characters and feel of Man from UNCLE. Also, I have never ever seen a Tarantino film (well never more than fifteen minutes) and thus did not have that to compare it to. I have seen films where I know I might have liked it had I never seen the plot done before but I have and now it is too late to see that film first.
Unbroken was a gem. It just needed more about his spiritual journey. It felt rushed in the last quarter of the film.
Spy was amusing but very crude. And the plot is not... refined. For that matter, Kingsman petered out in its backhalf pretty severely. (Pretty much once Firth is out of the action it takes a dive.)
Imitation Game was very well-done. A great period piece, a good look at both the codebreaking done in WWII and the people involved in that undertaking. It was so utterly tragic though. I was sobbing at the end and I know that I won't watch it again anytime soon due to that. But brilliant acting from Benedict and Keira.
Prometheus had this great premise and good visuals but no character to which to attach my affections and concern. I didn't like any of them and thus I failed to care deeply about the outcome which sort of ruined it for me. I have never seen the Alien films which I understood it to be a sort of prequel to. Also, I am not really good with the thriller sort of films as I get so jumpy and tense. (My family was mocking me for being so tense with this one, but some of my family watch horror films so.)
Dracula Untold was a pretty film and I liked the question that it asked about the morality of what Dracula did. Overall, I would watch it again :)
