Aaron Eckhart and Michelle Rodriguez lead a squad into the bowels of the Earth to take down an alien forward base of operations with self-controlled fear and compassion for others that renews our faith in humanity. They effectively demonstrate the cooperation between genders and the saving grace of parenting in a crisis in such a way that makes all the sweat and tears shed worth watching.

Are plumbers underappreciated? In this animated video game based adventure determined Mario and his knuckleheaded brother Luigi plumb the pipes and hook up with DK to shrink down to size their fat headed fire breathing narcicistic turtle adversary. The music wreaks of wonderful nostalgia. You don't have to be a fan of the Super Mario series of video games to enjoy this noisy, chaotic, colorful, humorous mayhem. The movie length is pretty good for kids and grown ups alike.

Good acting, suspenseful, fantastical and cringe worthy monster movie. Little kids will have nightmares and mature audiences will relate to the parental mistakes that are just as monstrous in their own right. Family life takes a hit in this horror flick.
