Room (2015)

I feel like I am walking on the thinnest of ice right not.

Room is definitely one of the year’s very best films, if not the best, but how do I convince you to see it?  For starters, I could say that it was playing an hours drive away from me, and it was more than worth the trip. I could say it has probaly the best performances you will see all year. What I can’t say is what you may feel personally, only that I felt emotions as strong as I have in any theater experience I have had in my life.

Jurassic World (2015)

I admit that when I heard they were doing a new film in the Jurassic series, I was hesitant.

The first film came out when I was six, and it was a great entertainment. Sadly, after the unimpressive (but mildly entertaining) The Lost World and the very anti-fun Jurassic Park 3, it seemed the original was doomed to follow the same path of another Spielberg classic, Jaws.
