Well I gotta be honest - I'm not the biggest musical fan out there, but my favorite piece of art right now is Hamilton and becouse of that I decided to watch some of the most popular musicals of last few years.

I kinda like the style of it. I mean CGI's terrible, but I thought the sets were beautiful as well as the costumes. And I gotta say - almost all of the songs were very good. Almost, becouse the second song (can't remember the name) was too long and I really don't like This Is Me. It just really didn't fit in this part of the movie, it was just a distraction from what was going on with Hugh Jackman's character.

Hugh Jackman is awesome, as well as every actor and actress - Zandaya was a little bit wasted for me (she only appered in few scenes) but she was incredible in all of them. And it's always nice to see Zack Efron in something that's not crappy comedy.

But me main problem is the fact that Hugh Jackman's character starts as a good, simple man, than becomes an opsessed with power dick... And than becomes a good person again. Why? Wouldnt it be more interesting to see him leave his family and becoming 'the greatest showman'. It felt to family movie like which isnt a bad thing but for me it didn't fit in this story or this idea.

New Asterix movie has some great parts. A lot of really good slapstick, some adult jokes that really work, really good animation, fast paste, and again - it's just very funny, I will remember the Jesus joke, and a lot of other stuff for a while.

Unfortunetly I didn't enjoy it as much as I wanted to becouse the plot was just so boring, and so complicated. It was just way too much for an 80 minutes movie.

Don't get me wrong - I didn't went to the theater to see this movie for the plot, I just wanted to see some jokes, nice animtion and all that. If this plot was just generic - than that's by me. But it was just to complicated and often bothered.

It's still an okey movie and I still recomend to go see it, even if you don't have kids. It still has some great parts and great animation.

I was so surprised how much I enjoyed Kick-Ass 2. I love the first one, it's one of my favourite superhero movies, it's funny, it has great action scenes, but it focuses on the characters and for me it was the thing that dissapointed me in the sequel.

Like the first one it is very funny, has great fight scenes (although one battle in the middle fell to slow for me) and it works for a superhero comedy, it's better than Deadpool or LEGO Batman movie, and it's really fun.

My biggest problem is the fact that Chris, a villain in this one is turned into a joke, and an idiot. Don't get me wrong, he's really funny, but in the first one he was a character, he had motivations, we could like him or feel sorry for him. Here he's an idiot and a joke, funny joke, but it's not the same.

Smaller problem is the fact, that there are som plot points that just stop, or don't go anywhere, but it isn't something that bothered me that much.

Overall if you're a fan of superhero movies or action comedies, you really should check it out, it's a good time, but it's not a good film.
