Avengers: Infinity War

Thanos is on a mission to collect all six Infinity Stones, relics with inconceivable power, and use them to wreak havoc and destruction on all existing life.

No spoilers here - just some commentary that this exciting and fun episode does a great job selectively reintroducing all of our favorite characters, heroes and villains alike, into this massive culmination. That being said, take note that this has a very long and complicated storyline with several subplots that might overwhelm and/or exhaust those who are not die hard fans.  Keep in mind this is eighteen (18) - yes eighteen movies worth of build up and an enormous ensemble cast, so the epic amount of information that is squished onto the screen can be jarring. Even with its exuberant pace the film still runs 149 minutes and has some lengthy fight scenes that could have been curtailed. Nevertheless it is what a comic book movie should be...entertaining. Oh and as always stay for the after credit epilogue.

*** Must See for the zealots 

Rated PG-13 (for language and violence)

A Quiet Place

A family struggles to survive in their new world, where making noise is a death sentence.

This was such a fun and exciting thriller.  Very well acted with AMAZING sound design. Full of edge of your seat jumps and jitters. Don't let the lack of dialogue deter a screening of this creative I am Legend meets Alien adventure.

*** 1/2 MUST SEE

Rated PG-13 (for violence and gore)
