Independence Day (1996)
About: The aliens are coming and their goal is to invade and destroy. Fighting superior technology, Man's best weapon is the will to survive.
My Thoughts: I love pretty much everything about this film. It's ridiculously funny while still being serious probably because Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum are epic. They're one of the reasons I miss the 90's. Apparently lines between them was pretty much improvised. The writing is brilliant too, it's not unbelievable as such. Will Smith deserves all of the awards.
P.S. Love how ever film has a guy dying to NUKE EVERYTHING

Holes (2003)
About: A wrongfully convicted boy is sent to a brutal desert detention camp where he joins the job of digging holes for some mysterious reason.
My Thoughts: So many feels. This film is funny but the story itself sdfjhgjghk. So many little stories that all come together at the end to reveal some awesomeness. Also loving kissing Kate, such a BAMF. Her and Sam's story always makes me cry. Especially her last scene ;-;

Hulk (2003)
About: Bruce Banner, a genetics researcher with a tragic past, suffers an accident that causes him to transform into a raging green monster when he gets angry.
My Thoughts: Lol nope. Didn't like the actors, didn't like the characters, didn't like the story and didn't like the film style. I'm guessing they were trying to do the film is a comic style. As much as I love comic style I didn't like it used in film. I felt like someone had just discovered Windows Movie Maker and got a bit carried away.

Monsters Inc. (2001)
About: Monsters generate their city's power by scaring children, but they are terribly afraid themselves of being contaminated by children, so when one enters Monstropolis, top scarer Sulley finds his world disrupted.
My Thoughts: Oh this film. So much genius, so much hilarity, so many feels ;-; I want a Boo. Weird to thinks that she's older than my younger sister.

The Incredibles (2004)
About: A family of undercover superheroes, while trying to live the quiet suburban life, are forced into action to save the world.
My Thoughts: I think my fave part about this film is that it manages to be a film about superheroes while still being about a family. Even while they're in danger/ saving the world they still manage to bicker like a typical family. Very sweet film and very funny. Never gets old.

Because I Said So (2007)
About: A meddling mother tries to set her daughter up with the right man so her kid won't follow in her footsteps.
My Thoughts: Oh sweet lord the mother. She's pretty much what mine would be like if I gave her half the chance. So terrible, restraining order required. Also so much TMI in their family. Pretty much watch this film purely for Gabriel Macht. I cannot deal with that man. Every time he smiles I think heart attack is a serious risk. TOO ADORABLE.

Hairspray (2007)
About: Pleasantly plump teenager Tracy Turnblad teaches 1962 Baltimore a thing or two about integration after landing a spot on a local TV dance show.
My Thoughts: I legit do not even know. I felt like I must have been tripping a bit. It was a slightly weird but not unenjoyable film. I like the music/ songs :3
