The X-Men franchise has completed yet another trilogy with the release of X-Men: Apocalypse. For someone like me who’s been a fan of the franchise since the circa 1992 cartoon, expectations were definitely high. Apocalypse is one of the most interesting plots of the franchise, after all. Sadly, these expectations weren’t met.

Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice is reserved for fanatics who have for so long waited for their favorite DC Comics characters. But for viewers unfamiliar with the world of Batman and Superman, watching the film to discover a new realm is not worth it. It does not sustain excitement, it does not elicit interest, and it does not add to the already popular superhero genre. Scratching off nostalgia on its surface, one can see a hollow plot lacking both in action and story.

Here is a movie that caters to the wide spectrum of audience without being sloppy and cheap. It entertains the general audience while teaching lessons of falling in love, embracing diversity, and finding self-definition. Snoopy and Charlie Brown: The Peanuts Movie is a must-watch feel good animation film that would bring you a visual and storyline treat.
