History of Future Folk

The History of Future Folk
Genre: Comedy, Sci-Fi
Starring: Nils d'Aulaire, Jay Klaitz, Julie Ann Emery, April L. Hernandez, Dee Snider
2012

Review
Honestly, before watching this movie, I had never heard of Future Folk. Apparently, that does not matter when it comes to enjoying this film. The characters are enjoyable, the premise is fresh, and the music is great. The hero of planet Hondo and his new friend make a great duo. One great aspect of this film is the ability to cross gender preferences. In other words, this would make a good movie to watch with your boyfriend or girlfriend. It has the potential for both to enjoy. This movie is not a huge blockbuster that everyone has heard of, but if you get a chance to watch this movie, please do so.
8.5/10

The To Do List

The To Do List
Genre: Comedy
Starring: Aubrey Plaza, Johnny Simmons, Bill Hader, Alia Shawkat, Scott Porter, Rachel Bilson, Donald Glover, Andy Samberg, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Connie Britton, Clark Gregg
2013

Review
This comedy has quite a few recognizable faces. Starring Aubrey Plaza (Parks and Recreation)as an uptight high school graduate set on loosening up. Plaza is backed up by such notables as Bill Hader (Saturday Night Live), Alia Shawkat (Arrested Development), and Donald Glover (Community). That is about half of the faces you may recognize in this film. Aside from the great casting, the film had some really funny moments. The premise is fresh in an industry in which people are constantly remarking on the lack of creativity. If you enjoy any of the actors mentioned above and their typical roles, this movie will be an good match for you.
