Need For Speed

Need for Speed is an adaptation of the popular series of video games by Electronic Arts. It stars Aaron Paul in the lead role and is scheduled for release through Touchstone Pictures on March 14, 2014. After being released from prison for a crime that he didn't commit, a street racer, Tobey Marshall (Aaron Paul), is set to race cross-country and to avenge the death of his friend Pete.

Cast - Aaron Paul, Dominic Cooper , Imogen Poots , Ramon Rodriguez, Michael Keaton

Director - Scott Waugh

Verdict - The movie is a fast paced thrill with explosive action sequences and fast cars. But that's about all it is, although Aaron Paul does a great job leading the project, the story-line leaves a lot to be desired. The movie is a fun watch though, especially for those who are fans of the 'Fast And Furious' franchise. I would recommend you give this one a watch.

IMDb - 7.3/10

Rotten Tomatoes - 24%

Release Late - March 21

God's Not Dead

College student Josh Wheaton's faith is challenged by his philosophy professor when he relates to him the theory that  God does not exist.

Cast - Shane Harper , Kevin Sorbo, David A.R. White , Dean Cain , Lisa Arnold

Director - Harold Cronk

Verdict - Certainly an interesting concept for a plot-line, and definitely one that has been getting attention from Christian groups and the media. The movie as a whole is very intresting and engaging, combining twists and fact to give you a whole movie experience. The stories about peoples' faith and the acting ability of the cast is also great. I would give this one a watch.
