I'm excited about the science fiction and fantasy movies currently in theaters. Joker, Malifacent and Zombieland were all great, but some were better than others.

These movies are made for the lowest common denominator. The plots are pandering to people who care about social justice and not about making good movies.
ood movies.

I don't think that's completely true. The original Malifacent made a few years ago, did change the story arc to appeal to a more modern audience but that doesn't mean it's bad. I appreciated the new view and the values displayed in the movie. Zombieland has taken a serious genre and turned it into a comedy. This is something people have always craved. An old example of this is the Scary Movie franchise which poked fun at serious movies.

While there are some clever jokes in Zombieland and provided the escape I wanted from a movie. Changing the nature of Malifacent alters how she was originally written. She was evil, like a fantasy version of Rasputin.

Absolutely. But I think Malifacent, Like Joker, explored the flawed character of people we feel are "Evil." Movies normally present characters as purely good or bad. These movies blurred those lines and as a result we sympathize with them.

Joker made me feel uncomfortable. I prefer a movie to make it clear who is the protagonist and who is the antagonist. I don't want to question whether i am a good person.

A movie that makes me question things is the whole art of the medium . I think Zombieland provides that clear-cut dichotomy you might be looking for and appeals to the broadest audience. It's easily enjoyed and you leave the theater feeling like the characters made the decisions you would have made.

I agree, I would prefer seeing more movies like that. Movies that present themselves as art is not appealing to me. Zombieland made me laugh for hours while other films left me confused.

Zombieland has a satirical perspective while remaining a serious movie. I didn't feel trashy for enjoying it. That is important to me when I see a movie.

That's a good point.Other satirical movies are full of dumb props or try to look fake. Zombieland has a story that you are actually invested in,

THe other movies just live joke-to-joke. Zombieland was heartwarming, like an old disney movie,and you like the all the characters. No character was more front and center than any others.

True. By having four main characters you were invested in the group as opposed to the individuals. So it was a movie about a group as well as individuals.

Most of our friends like a movie that is smart and entertaining. Do you think Zombieland would fall into that category.

I think so. Movies that have a creative plot in a genre with infinite films is something people should be interested in seeing.

You can check several movie columns, like the one in New Yorker Magazine to see what they say about the movie.That magazine has a very insightful columnist who reviews current movies.

I will also check rotten tomatoes and IMDB to see what the general public thinks about these movies. I'll remember to take the opinions with a grain of salt. People from the general public who right reviews often have extremely strong opinions.
