Movie 1: The End of Oak Street
This is a really entertaining drama/adventure/sci-fi. A mysterious solar event opens up a hole in a small Michigan town and prehistoric dinosaurs and ancient plants inhabit the area. The acting is perfect, especially Anne Hathaway. It is edge of your seat suspense. Kinda like Jurassic Park meets the suburbs. We’ve seen the movie twice since it opened a week ago.

Movie 2: Mutiny
This is another high energy action movie from the always reliable Jason Statham. This time he is a bodyguard who finds himself seeking revenge on a cargo ship that is trafficking Thai nationals. Good action scenes, even though the dialogue is very predictable. An entertaining movie, especially on a rainy summer afternoon.

Movie 3: The Magic Faraway Tree
This movie is an adaptation of the novel of the same name by Enid Blyton. A London family moves to the countryside to live a slower down to earth life. The three young children are not happy until they discover a magic tree with all manner of colorful residents. The costumes and sets are beautiful, And it’s always good to see Claire Foy.

I saw the end of Oak St last weekend and totally agree with your review. Really enjoyable fun movie. I didn’t think I would like Mutiny but since you gave it a good review maybe I’ll see it this weekend. Thanks guys.
Saw Anne and Ewan on Jimmy Kimmel / they were hilarious talking about the filming of that movie.
They didn’t know each other but on the first day, after about 8 takes, they asked each other “Did you know how much running we were going to have to do?”
It was killing them.
