ArmageddonA mixed team is gathered to destroy a comet threatening to destroy the world.

An adventure that shouldn’t be taken too seriously. It has the type of gung –ho action that Bruce Willis is famous for.

Suspend belief and have fun.

Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen

Transformers 2The fight between two opposing robot groups continues, one side supported by the US military.

Even more action than the first movie. Again plenty of great special effects, humour, action, and big battles.

The first Transformers is still the best, but this one is still very entertaining.

Kids again will love it, and most adults should enjoy it too. It is not a kids movie though, so parental guidance is probably best (not much blood, but plenty of violent action (robots versus humans) and some suggestive humour.
