Director: Joseph Josinski

Tom Cruise has gives a great performance.  The film has some really great shots, has really good actions, and really good visuals.


(9) Star Trek Into Darkness

Director: J. J. Abrams

Sequel to the 2009 Star Trek, with a great cast, great acting, and amazing visuals.  Cumberbatch completely kills it as Kahn.


(8) Frozen

Frozen

Director: Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee

A great animated tale showing the broken relationship between two sisters.  This film has some really good animation, memorable songs, great chemistry.


(7) Man of Steel

Man of Steel

Director: Zack Snyder

Reboot to the superman franchise that takes it a new level in live-action. Has some the most memorable superhero fights, Henry Cavill kills it as Superman, and have some really good visuals.  Not only is it a great Superman movie but it definitely helped redefine the whole the darker more destructive elements of comic book films.


(6) Captain Phillips

Captain Phillips

Director: Paul Greengrass

Tom Hanks gives a powerful performance as a captain kidnapped by Somali pirates in this film.  The close quarter moments are very tense and there are great chemistry between the characters.


(5) 42

42

Director: Brian Helgeland

Really good film detailing the story of Jackie Robinson played by Chadwick Boseman.  Harrison Ford gives a great performance.  Really intense action scenes.


(4) Flu

Flu

Director: Kim Sung-su

This is a surprisingly well-written and well-directed film.  The story explores the struggles of humanity not only against the epidemic ravaging the citizens but also the morale choices of other humans.


(3) Ender’s Game

Ender's Game

Director: Gavin Hood

Great adaptation with some of the best character development.  Very good performances and a spectacular ending.


Now these last two were incredibly hard for me to decide.  I really enjoyed them both.  Both have some really good acting, great dialogue,and great chemistry among the cast.  There are really good action scenes great stories and are sequels.  These two films I rated as “Too Cool For Words” and will definitely buy them on DVD.


(2) The Hunger Games: Catching Fire

The Hunger Games Catching Fire

Director: Francis Lawrence

This film was better than the first.  Jennifer Lawrence is a total badass as Katniss.  The characters were really cool, the action was amped up, a story that dives deeper into the mechanizations of the world.


(1) The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug

The Hobbit The Desolation of Smaug

Director: Peter Jackson

Continues the adventures of Bilbo and the dwarves,   Has some of the best action scenes, great dialogue, really good visuals, and great shots.  Smaug was completely badass, he was menacing and witty.  Martin Freeman kills it as Bilbo.
