For people who donât have time for full analyses
By Jerrison Oracion, Senior Columnist
The summer films this year have been interesting. There were a lot of âlast filmsâ in series that have turned out to⌠not quite be the last film. Also, there have been films that were surprisingly good, and other films that were unsurprisingly not good. Here are the Other Pressâs spoiler-free, one-sentence reviews of this yearâs summer films.
Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 2
As great as the first film.
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales
A great way to end the film series (please, let it be the end).
Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie
Itâs true to the original chapter books and shows that the arts are important.
Cars 3
A very feminist G-rated movie.
Despicable Me 3
It has a lot of 1980s jokes in it.
Spider-Man: Homecoming
The best Spider-Man film ever made.
War for the Planet of the Apes
Wished James Franco was back, but surprisingly good.
Dunkirk
The best war movie this year.
Transformers: The Last Knight
It has beautiful IMAX scenes, but do we really need another Transformers film?
