It’s that time
of the month again. Time for me to tell you which movies I enjoyed in the month
of April. Without further ado, here’s my short list of must-see films.
IN THEATERS
Captain America: The Winter Soldier
I’m a Marvel
movie fan. Never read the comics, but I’ve seen most of the films. Captain America: The Winter Soldier fed
my superhero craving perfectly. High-flying action sequences, witty dialogue
between Cap and Black Widow, and surprises around every corner (can’t give away
the details because I want you to be as surprised as I was) kept me on the edge
of my seat throughout the entire film. This is one I would love to see multiple
times in the theater, if only my budget would allow for that. The cast was
great, as it always is with these dynamic movies in the Marvel family. I loved
the addition of Anthony Mackie as the new character Falcon. He’s a talented actor I’ve enjoyed watching over
the past several years. Always brings his A-game to every role he takes on.
That’s what you’ve got to do when you step into the limelight with Chris Evans,
Scarlett Johansson, and Samuel L. Jackson. Mackie's Falcon was a fabulous addition to
the storyline, and I hope we get more of his story in the next Marvel flick.

Frozen
This will
probably remain the most popular Disney movie this year. It’s an instant
classic that resonates with familial love. The story revolves around Elsa and
Anna, two sisters (princesses, of course, but would we really expect anything
less from Disney?) who drift apart due to secrets Elsa hides to protect Anna
from another incident like the one that happened when she was very young. There’s
adventure to be found in this wintry tale of dreams waiting to be fought for.
Oh, and there’s a hilarious snowman named Olaf. He’ll keep you laughing for
certain!
There have been a
lot of versions of “Let It Go” floating around YouTube. Here for your viewing
pleasure is my favorite one. It’s a very creative African Tribal version,
featuring the very talented Alex Boyé. Please enjoy!
Due to watching
the Dallas Stars in the Stanley Cup Playoffs and several teams playing in the NBA
Playoffs, I haven’t had much spare time to view movies. Have I mentioned that I’m
more than a little obsessed with the National Basketball Association? I’d love
to hear about movies you’ve seen
this month. Maybe I can play catch-up once all the playoffs are over in a month
or so.
Which movies would you recommend? What was
it you liked about them? Which movies are you looking forward to the most for
the summer season?
