Movie Tipper Rating: A+
Everything that you’ve ever wanted in a silly super-hero sci-fi movie from Marvel but somehow have never gotten before now. True dig-deep meta self-conscious, self-referencing, yet somehow screamingly funny wit, stars in genuine star turns, a laughably wonderful soundtrack and CG images that whirl by in blasts of color and motion that are actually possible for the eye to comprehend yet simultaneously thrilling and deeply funny.
Adults have much to feed off of and keep them happy; while younger viewers (even hard nut cynical male tweens) get this film. Everyone leaves happy, guaranteed.

Oscar Watch Guaranteed
A serviceable biopic from the director of ‘The Help’ raised to dizzying heights by Chadwick Boseman’s jaw dropping performance as the Godfather of Soul, not an impersonation (Eddie Murphy’s is still the greatest of the many James Brown impersonations out there); this is an embodiment, soul-deep of the workings, mannerisms, and persona of the legendary band leader and creator of funk. Look for a Chadwick Boseman nomination in the Best Actor Drama category during the upcoming Academy Awards, it's a lock.

22 Jump Street
Movie Tipper Rating: A
Basically the cleverest sequel to a dumb movie ever made. Gross out, vulgar, slapstick humor, frat boy hijinx, over the top set pieces and a bromance for the ages - Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum created this snorting with laughter franchise and then took it up a notch with this second offering. Make no mistake though, Ice Cube owns every scene he’s in; he brings a cool deadpan frippery to the proceedings that without him would just wander off and shoot themselves in the … well someplace both funny and not so funny. This film is just flat out funny, you don’t even have to actually like this kind of thing - it’s still funny.
Rated: R (for language throughout, sexual content, drug material, brief nudity and some violence)
Metacritic Score: 71 (too low!!)

Edge of Tomorrow (Live.Die.Repeat)
Movie Tipper Rating: A+
Never in all of movies has such an exciting, clever, involving and utterly original Sci-Fi movie been saddled with such a completely vacuous title. It sounds like a day-time soap, but it’s not. You don’t have to be a Cruise fan (I’m mostly not) to be gobsmacked by the surprising intelligence and energy of this Groundhog day for Grunts vs. Aliens premise and the solid delivery is out of the park. Emily Blundt’s ‘Full Metal Bitch’ is certainly not like any other character on her resume or in Sci-Fi history either. Consider the alternate title - Lie.Die.Repeat and see it on the big screen while you still can.
Rated: PG-13 (for intense sequences of sci-fi action and violence, language and brief suggestive material)
Metacritic Score: 71 (no way high enough)
