Triple bill day starts with a bang and goes out with a fizzle!

Jurassic World: What better to start with than the fourth instalment in the Jurassic franchise! Not much, I can tell you. From the adverts I wasn't overly excited, I had already decided which characters to love and hate! Jurassic World had just the right amount of respect for Jurassic Park for die hard fans to enjoy and enough sparkly, new attractions and ideas for special effects lovers. Also, there was Chris Pratt. Who doesn't love him! Witty, ruggedly handsome and (I quote) 'a badass'. The kids didn't cry too much, the dinosaurs were on screen enough and the bad guys at Ingen got what they deserved...do they never learn! There isn't enough time or space on this blog to tell you everything I loved about it, but if I'm going to be picky and believe me this is the smallest thing...what was the deal with the teenager and his girlfriend? Was that supposed to be a bigger story or were you just supposed to not like him for being a bit of a creep? I didn't get it. But that's a very small fish to fry!
A whopping 5 Stars *****
<3 Chris Pratt <3
<3 Velociraptors and T-Rex <3

Spy: Laugh out loud, bring your knees up to your face sort of funny. A really good take on serious spy films. A colourful and hilarious cast. Even the sound track was great! It managed to be funny without being ridiculous, action packed without being a general spy movie and have a great story line without the usual formula.
A respectable 4.5 Stars *****
<3 Jason Statham' tall tales <3
<3 Rose Byrne's hair <3
<3 Peter Serafinowicz (a.k.a. Aldo)<3

Insidious Chapter 3: A prequel to the other two and lacking because of it. While we learned from the first two that sometimes a further explanation is needed, I feel a lot of things were left unexplained in this movie that won't get straightened out. If the ending of this is to be explored, there could be another film about the Darth Maul look alike, but if you cast your mind back to Insidious 2, the next instalment could follow the path of Elise, Tucker and Specs. Either way, I hope it returns to the old school, dramatic feel of the first two.
While Chapter 3 was a bag full of jump scares, littered with a decent story, some rather ugly characters in the Further and a good basis for where the ghost hunting trio started out there are noticeable holes. Firstly, it lacks any explanation for the entity which haunts the young girl in this movie. Not once do they delve into why he wants her soul, what happened to him in life or why he wears an oxygen mask.
Then there's the addition of unnecessary characters. The younger brother, the boy whose in love with Quinn and the crazy cat lady. All of these characters could have been cut and the minor kinks reworked.
Lacking the cinematic atmosphere of the first two I cannot give this instalment a great rating, it was average. Not poor as I do recall watching a few parts through my fingers!
A disappointing 3.5 Stars ****
