Adventure Force 5 (2019)
Fun and endearing
Adventure Force 5 is a fun, cute, often charming, and sometimes even an endearingly funny movie. A dash of The Avengers, a dash of Sky High, a dash of Babe, and a dash of Diary of a Wimpy Kid, this film is a fun movie for kids and their families. What I really loved about this movie is the older brother-young brother relationship. Maybe I'm a bit biased because I have a younger brother, but knowing that I would do anything for my younger brother, and seeing that mentality portrayed on this screen (especially with an anti-bully concept in the beginning) shows me that films like that exist for more than entertainment value -- and in the familial sense where the kids just want their mom -- they are here to educate, and this film does a great job of blending both entertainment and education for a wild, fun ride.
Just Mercy (2019)
Solid script and performances
Just Mercy is a very dynamic and moving piece with a fantastic performance from Jamie Foxx and the ensemble cast. It is well-paced and tells a story that needs to be heard. Not only is it a well-made film, but it is so relevant to today's society -- and it's a story that not only needs to be told, but listened to and heard. With a climax that's heartwrenching and a solid script that kept me engaged, I saw this once when it come out and again recently, and it resonates with me each time.
