The new geneticist in the park has crated a new dinosaur, Indominus Rex, a hybrid dinosaur which is slightly like the t-rex.

Maze Runner (2014)

If you woke in a random box with no memory of who you are, What would you do? Well, for Thomas ti was to run though he hadn't planned on falling straight on his face. That was how he entered the world of The Concrete Maze. Though, he is not the only person who is in the maze there are over a hundred boys all under the age of 21. That is until Theresa came up from the whole. However, the thing which is so special about her is that she has a bit of memory which just so happens to be about Thomas. During the day people try and run around the maze so they can map it out and by night they try and configure a map. The problem to this method is though, the maze changes everyday as well as there are robotic type of spider creatures called Grievers who are guarding the maze and but they are not as cute and fluffy as actual spiders. With Thomas and Theresa's help they may just make it out of the maze. But, what is waiting for them on the other side? I rate this film a 18/20. However, it is considerably better than the book written by James Dashner.

Ender's Game (2013)

Over 100 years after the first attack and war with the alien species who nearly destroyed Earth people are still trying to train and predict the next time World War 4 will happen. That is when Ender ( ASa Butterfield) comes in to this. Ender is a 15 year old boy who is training to be a space cadet and he has a definitely unique way at looking at the strategies of War. That is why one of the commander Generals (Harrison Ford) and a war hero ( Ben Kingsley) takes special attention to him. On his mission Ender has to train a squadron of over 200 teenagers in the true art of destroying a species as well as being at war with his own mind in a computer game which may or may not be more fiction to the made-up game. There may be death and destruction in his wake yet he still has an extraordinarily large conscience for a genocide.
I rate this film a 19/20.

Men, Women and Children (2014)

This movie is a movie like Valentines day and Love Actually. This movie follows the stories of multiple people who are all joined at one point however what seems like the main character is the daughter of a protective creepy woman (Hillary Swank). She has her phone and laptop checked by her mum every day. The story also follows the daughter's boyfriend (Ansel Elgort), a couple who are definitely not attracted to each other anymore, a kid who really like imagining his fantasies with a girl and a football and a girl who believes that by taking sexy pics and putting it on her acting website she will be spotted by people in Hollywood. the one main common thing between everyone is Social Networking. The film takes a defiantly emotional journey for every character some more than other and with some character trying to protecting their children may just cause other children to nearly die.
I rate this film a 19/20. Reminder: this film is not for the faint hearted especially towards the end.

Big Hero Six (2014)

To have your parents leave you at such a young age it makes you feel distraught but for Hiro he then he loses his most favourite person in the world. That is not before he is shown by his brother one of his inventions', BAYMAX. BAYMAX is a healthcare robot that looks like a balloon version of the Michelin man. Hiro then takes on his shoulders the fate of some people's lives, a group of scientists who want to be superheroes and robot that really loves hugging. I can successfully say that I believe that this is one of the best Disney film of the last decade or even not the best Disney film since Hercules. As well as this is one of the best animated version of a Marvel comic. The 3-D computer animated film brings a whole new meaning to cartoon films yet it isn't to realistic to get to the creepy stage in between CGI and cartoon animation. I rate this film a 18/20.

Big Eyes(2015)

It takes a lot for you to run away from your husband especially for an artist stay at home mum. So when Margaret finds a man who truly loves her artwork she thinks she has won everything. But, when he tries to sell her work as his own she started to be adgitated but, when he makes sexist comment about how women won't have be respected in the art world. Though, this was true in the 60s when the film was based. In the end Margaret get annoyed and fed up by her husband Mr.Keane so she moved to Hawaii, became a jahova witness and sued her husband for all he was worth. This true story was directed by Tum Burton which was surprising amazing for the fact that it was not his usual cult-movie. With an amazing cast which helps Margaret Keane's story about her Big Eyed children with the like of Amy Adams, Christopher Waltz and Krysten Ritter. I rate this film an 19/20.

Into the woods (2015)

We all know the classic fairytales, Red Riding hood's gran has big eyes to see her with, Jack got 5 magic beans not 5 gold coins and Rapunzel has extremely long hair for her prince to climb up. But, that's where it starts to turn off track. A wicked witch (Meryl Streep) who put a curse on a Baker (James Corden) and his wife (Emily Blunt) gets them to gather certain items so she can go back to the youthful ways she once had and in return she will lift the curse and let them be able to have a child. It is the best Broadway musical adaptation ever. With music from the great Stephen Sondheim and when people say its a musical do believe them truly. I rate this film a 18/20.
