Review:

Seen as the perfect couple, Cal (Steve Carell) is shocked when his wife Emily (Julianne Moore) wants a divorce. Now he must face life as a single guy with a 13 year old son Robbie (Jonah Bobo). Cal doesn’t take the separation very well. He winds up in a bar where he meets professional bachelor Jacob (Ryan Gosling). Feeling pity for the older sap, Jacob takes him under his wing which he finds out is a bigger task than he expected. After all, Cal hasn’t dated in years, leaving his style, his pickup lines and his drinks even pretty dated. Meanwhile back at home, his son is crushing on his 17 year old babysitter, who has a crush on Cal to make matters even more complicated. Emily, the wife, is being hit up by David (Kevin Bacon) and Jacob, who is supposed to be training Cal might need some help of his own when he meets Hannah (Emma Stone). Read more…

Review:

In what is a prequel to the other X-Men films, this tells the story of the origins of Professor X (James McAvoy) and Magneto (Michael Fassbender), who are still friends in the 1960’s when the US is in the darkest part of the Cold War with Russia. But despite the friendship, they see the role of mutants in a very different way. Xavier sees a world where mutants live peacefully among the “normal” people, while Magneto sees a war brewing between those with powers and those without, something we see in the later films. But both come together when Dr. Schmidt (Kevin Bacon), an ex-Nazi scientist who wants to create a mutant army of killing machines and his assistant Emma Frost (January Jones) threatens to push both superpowers to the brink, leading to a missile crisis between the two nations. Knowing that they will need more than themselves to fight, the two forego their issues and search out a train a group of young mutants who can assist them in defeating Schmidt, who is now a sociopathic playboy named Sebastian Shaw in Las Vegas, where he is amassing his own violent mutants.
