I can't say that "Rabid" is a great movie. If anything, I thought it was rather crude and shallow despite Cronenbergs attempts at sexually charged symbolism and social commentary. Yet I was also taken aback by the ambition and creativity, even though I should be used to this from Cronenberg by now.

"Sword in the Moon" is a poser art film that's masquerading as a martial arts/horror epic, dressed in surprisingly lavish production values. I thought it was really boring.

"Terminator: Genisys" can go f@ck itself with a giant CGI phallus.

"The Empire Strikes Back" is the perfect continuation of the "Star Wars" saga, fleshing out the Universe and developing the characters, while offering superior effects, cinematography, writing, acting and direction.

"A Force of One" has a pretty cool, if a bit absurd, concept going for it. Who doesn't like the idea of Chuck Norris training police officers to fend off a cop killing serial killer, while he prepares for a climactic fight with Bill 'Superfoot' Wallace?

Amusingly, ripping off Indiana Jones probably made "Magnificent Warriors" into the most original kung fu flick since...ever...I expect characters to introduce their fists to the faces of their enemies, but I don't expect aerial combat, fedoras and explosive car chases.

If you are interested in watching "Vengeance is a Golden Blade", please accept that this is a drama which focuses more on characters instead of action- even though we do get quite a bit of swordplay in the process.

"Jurassic World" isn't bad and can be enjoyed as long as you aren't expecting anything exceptional. I was expecting something exceptional...

"Star Wars" is a light hearted, but exciting space opera filled with so much imagination and creativity that it is easy to remember every little detail and not be a total nerd.
