Rating: 8/10 - DirectorSteve MartinoStarsNoah SchnappBill MelendezHadley Belle MillerSnoopy embarks upon his greatest mission as he and his team take to the skies to pursue their archnemesis, while his best pal Charlie Brown begins his own epic quest back home to win the love of his life.Pros:
Enjoyable story
Overwhelmingly great animation
Great characters
Lots of heart
Cons:
Red Baron filler
Predictable plot
Description:
The Peanuts movie is not an animated film that tries to be cool for kids by simply putting cell phone gags or something like that. It would rather stay true to the original comics or specials by not taking place in that era despite being released in 2015. Anyway, I am so ticked that the oscars ignored this film completely for best animated feature. Sure Inside Out better, but it deserved a nomination. The golden globes did better.
Rating: 8/10 - DirectorJ.J. AbramsStarsDaisy RidleyJohn BoyegaOscar IsaacAs a new threat to the galaxy rises, Rey, a desert scavenger, and Finn, an ex-stormtrooper, must join Han Solo and Chewbacca to search for the one hope of restoring peace.Pros:

A mix up with the Farmer, a caravan and a very steep hill lead them all to the Big City and it's up to Shaun and the flock to return everyone safely to the green grass of home.Pros:
Good stop motion
Good story
Great characters
A lot of heart

Its too simplistic
Description:
A cute stop motion film that delivers a heartwarming story. But its a little too simplistic, though.

Some good humor
Superhero fight scenes
Good to have 2D animation back in theaters along with good computer animation
Enjoyable plot
Cons:
* Many unlikeable characters that don't have a brain in the movie including Patrick (Who's an idiot jerk in some of the 2D scenes)
*The trailers can't be trusted. They had only 20 minutes of out of water scenes. 90% of what you see in the trailers is the last 20 minutes
* Some of the humor is tired and just dated
* Very weak story that doesn't put the stakes high
Description:
Better than the monstrosity new seasons, but not by that much. The 2004 SpongeBob movie had a stronger plot and better characters. This however, delivers a lying trailer, unlikeable characters, a weak story.
Rating: 5.5/10 - DirectorPeter SohnStarsJeffrey WrightFrances McDormandMaleah Nipay-PadillaIn a world where dinosaurs and humans live side-by-side, an Apatosaurus named Arlo makes an unlikely human friend.Pros:
A little heart
Great animation
Some likeable characters
Cons:
Rushed, Generic, and predictable plot
Arlo is a weak protagonist
Lacks a lot of comedy it should've had
Description:
Easily one of Pixar's worst films, the good dinosaur has awful writing that copies the Lion king and is predictable, but delivers amazing animation and some likeable characters. It's not well executed, so it is "The mediocre dinosaur"
Rating: 5/10 - DirectorGenndy TartakovskyStarsAdam SandlerAndy SambergSelena GomezDracula and his friends try to bring out the monster in his half human, half vampire grandson in order to keep Mavis from leaving the hotel.Pros:
A little of the humor is chuckle worthy and a bit funny
Enjoyable
Has pretty good animation
Cons:
Weak story
Weak characters
Tries so hard to look cool being modern day, even though its not cool
Weaker humor than the first one, its only funny less than half the time
Description:
With one dimensional characters, and a weak story, Hotel Transylvania 2 isn't as funny as the original, but at least it has good animation and is not very boring.
Rating: 4/10 - DirectorJosh TrankStarsMiles TellerKate MaraMichael B. JordanFour young outsiders teleport to an alternate and dangerous universe which alters their physical form in shocking ways. The four must learn to harness their new abilities and work together to save Earth from a former friend turned enemy.Pros:
Enjoyable opening 40 minutes
Decent special effects
Cons:
One dimensional and bland characters
Weak plot
Villain is revealed and fights only in the last 20 minutes
Downbeat
Description:
Fantastic 4 is a very weak film. It may be enjoyable for the first 40, but it can't make up for it's bland characters, and weak plot. The special effects are only decent, so they aren't really bad. I know everyone hated it, but I didn't think it was as bad as everyone said.
Rating: 4/10 (No pun intended) - DirectorKyle BaldaPierre CoffinStarsSandra BullockJon HammMichael KeatonMinions Stuart, Kevin, and Bob are recruited by Scarlet Overkill, a supervillain who, alongside her inventor husband Herb, hatches a plot to take over the world.Pros:
Good animation
Opening 30 minutes
Likeable minions
Great music
Cons:
Weak human characters
Dated humor that is only funny 40% of the time
Lacks heart
Boring 2nd act
Very weak story
Description:
Am I insane for putting it bellow the 2015 F4? Not really, but F4 still close to as bad as this. There's barely a plot at all, the adventure lacks heart, all the characters are one dimensional, the human characters are weak also, it gets boring, and it isn't even that funny. The worst film I've seen in 2015? Yes, but at least it did get some things right.
Rating: 3/10
