Short Movie Review: The Good Dinosaur? More Like The Really Bad Dinosaur Movie.
Just as Inside Out is easily the best Pixar movie yet, so is The Good Dinosaur easily Pixar's worst film.
With a disjointed, weak narrative and characters painted in broad strokes with no real depth to speak of, The Good Dinosaur waddles on a crutch of stereotypes, cliches and tired archtypes to tell its story.
Young kids might enjoy it but I highly doubt adults will, which is a real anomaly in a Pixar feature.
2 out of 5 stars for me.

Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2 Movie Review
While not as good as Catching Fire, Mockingjay Part 2 is the second strongest movie in the quartet and provides a satisfying conclusion to a great, if sometimes uneven, movie series.
A rare YA dystopian movie that is able to grow out of its roots and evolve into a full-fledged adult war movie, it is a must-watch for hardcore fans, casual fans and even just moviegoers in general. You do need to have watched Part 1 because Part 2 continues right where Part 1 ends.
4 out of 5 stars for me.
