Evolution

Starring: David Duchovny. Orlando Jones. Seann William Scott. Julianne Moore. Dan Aykroyd. Opening date: June 8. 2001.

When a meteor hits in the desert of Arizona. Ira and Harry come to investigate (David and Orlando). They take samples and discover that the organisms separate and become more than they can handle. They find out that this organisms seem to be extra-terrestrials that form rapidly. After the government gets involved, the two men are banned from continuing their research and investigation, but the government and the men, plus a clutzy scientist and a fireman to be, end up coming together to try and fight these organisms.

The end had an interesting twist, and throughout the movie you're always cheering for the main characters, since they knew what they were doing all along than the government.

I highly recommend this movie to anyone who loves the sci-fi genre, and people of all ages. At some parts throughout the movie, some scenes were silly like the lady who thought there was a dog in her closet and wanted to touch it.

Night at the Museum 2: Battle of the Smithsonian

Starring: Ben Stiller. Amy Adams. Hank Azaria. Owen Wilson. Steve Coogan. Bill Hader. Opening date: May 22, 2009

When the Natural Museum of History decides to do renovations, they ship the artifacts to a new museum, the Smithsonian. After two years, and becoming an entrepreneur, Larry Daley (Ben Stiller) visits his old job as the night guard and has found out what has happened. He thinks they should stay, but the boss (Ricky Gervais) has already decided the museum's destiny.

After getting a call from Jedediah, Larry catches the first flight to D.C to the museum. This movie includes many adventures including some with Amelia Earhart (Amy Adams) and President Lincoln. The main idea in this movie was to get the Natural Museum of History back into the way it was beforehand. The end had a surprising moment and a tiny bit of a "I knew that was gonna happen" moment. But you also had a question, "what happened to the Smithsonian when it was all done?" It may not be an important aspect of the movie, but it was a question I had in mind when the end came.

In my opinion, this movie was very entertaining and had a lot of chuckles and laughs. It was full of adventure. I liked how Larry came back to the museum, saw what had happened, and found a way to fix it, and he did. The cast was amazing, and everyone did a perfect job, and a perfect casting. I would recommend this movie to anyone. It's for people of all ages.
