Dumb werewolves, dumb small town cops and posse, gratuitous nudity... it is an Asylum movie after all. Not good enough or bad enough to be worth watching. | Dumb werewolves, dumb small town cops and posse, gratuitous nudity... it is an Asylum movie after all.

[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0096256/ They Live]<br> | |||
Very 80s, very paranoid, very John Carpenter. A nobody stumbles onto the world's biggest conspiracy, kind of clumsily tries to take it on. | |||

[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1179933/ 10 Cloverfield Lane]<br> | |||
Understandable why they considered it a "relative" to Cloverfield. A very tense watch, though, with fewer big excitements along the way for release. Gotta love Goodman. | |||

[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0100403/ Predator 2]<br> | |||
If you lose Arnie, of course the obvious go-to guy is... Danny Glover? For as much as they Robocop'd LA with superviolence, most of this is kind of dull. | |||

[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2975590/ Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice]<br> | |||
It's like they tried to cram 2-3 movies into one, without regard to clarity. People behave stupidly and the movie is just bloated bloated bloated. | |||

[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0458525/ X-Men Origins: Wolverine]<br> | |||
Things happen suddenly and/or inexplicably, as an excuse to get Wolverine fighting. A bit of a mess. | |||

[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3498820/ Captain America: Civil War]<br> | |||
The overall story and which sides people ended up taking seemed a bit muddled, but lots of inventive action and nice character moments. | |||

[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1877832/ X-Men: Days of Future Past]<br> | |||
Not all the time travel stuff passes my sniff test, but the rest of it makes for a pretty solid entry as far as this franchise is concerned. | |||

[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1628841/ Independence Day: Resurgence]<br> | |||
Harder to care about a world now incredibly unlike our own, but it is at least fun to see the returning characters again. Overall, though, a mess. | |||
