Spring Breakin’ It Up: Revo’s Top 5 Spring Break Movies
3. Paul Blart: Mall Cop (PG) – This is another one that should just be taken for what it is, Kevin James (King of Queens) running around making you laugh as a Mall Cop. The trailer looks good, Kevin James cracks us up, and let’s be honest…Mall Cops rank pretty low on the totem poll, which makes it funny. Right? (We’ll see I guess). 4. Taken (PG-13) – Sometimes a good thriller is just what you need and from what all the reviews say Taken delivers in spades. Liam Neeson’s daughter is kidnapped, his old career as a “preventer” gives him the skills to get her back, it promises lots of action, and from what I hear…a surprise ending. Fandango.com gives a “Go” rating and I’m saying the same. 5. X-Men Origins: Wolverine (PG-13): As a long time comic collector this movie gives me an automatic eye-rolling reaction but Wolverine is a classic character that we know is going to demand some kick-butt action and lots of moments leaving you saying “sweeeeeet.” The promises of some new mutants like Gambit, Deadpool (!!), Emma Frost, and yes even The Blob (they just couldn’t resist) are sure to be at least a little enjoyable right? What the hey – go see this movie and soak up the nostalgia no matter how corny it might get.
Florida’s weather can be beautiful during spring and hopefully you’ve hit up the beach and some of our “other” places we discussed but sometimes the most fun can be had with some popcorn, friends, and a good flick. So get out of the sun for a little bit, enjoy the always ice cold AC in the theatres, and check out Revo’s top 5 spring flicks:
1. Up – Pixar has made some of the most widely-enjoyable and ‘feel good’ movies in the last couple of years and even though recent movies like Cars and WALLE didn’t blow me away they made for a great time at the movies and from the short trailers that we’ve seen this looks to be right on par. We’ve still got awhile before it’s release (May 29) but mark it on your calendar, get a big group, and go enjoy what I think looks like this spring’s best movie.
2. Monsters vs. Aliens (PG) – The kid in all of us will appreciate the easy humor, cool graphics, and simple plot points and out of all the movies out there right now this one looks the most fun. So don’t be too proud, get the works at the concession stand, and soak up every minute.
Well there yah have it, Revos top 5. Enjoy! Don't forget to bookmark us and always check back for more blog posts.
