‘Assassin’s Creed’ Review: Your Destiny is Bleak and Unmoving
http://collider.com/assassins-creed-review/

Minus the material with Aguilar and Maria, Assassin’s Creed operates in cruise control. A similar sequence of events happens over and over again, and all you can do is just sit back and look at the pretty picture. And yes, Assassin’s Creed often does look fantastic, especially the costume design and the chase sequences that take place in the 15th Century. But all the riveting roof-top running and hand-to-hand combat in the world won’t make a movie worthwhile if you don’t give a damn about the characters.

Grade: C

Hurm. Sounds like another movie I have seen recently...hint hint...rhymes with Bar Whores
 
Alicia Vikander ... as lithe heroine Lara Croft on the set of Tomb Raider reboot

Sporting a low cut khaki top and tight black trousers, the 28-year-old Swedish actress performed several stunts atop a wooden bar on the South African set of the film.

Set pics look good and costume looks like the 2013 reboot. Just need to see if everything else comes together now.
 
Dwayne Johnson Takes to Instagram to Reveal Plot Details of ‘Rampage’

Here’s Johnson’s text from the Instagram post:

I head up an anti poaching unit out of Rwanda. My best friend is a rare albino gorilla named, George. Very bad people infect George, an alligator and a wolf with a serum. All three animals grow at an unprecedented rate. Their size, speed, agility and violent aggression is off the charts. They go on a deadly rampage and want to destroy the world. George not happy. Me not happy. When animals like you, they lick you. When they don’t like you, they kill you. I will hunt down the bad people who did this to my best friend. And when I find them, I will not lick them.

We have the best VFX monster making team (WETA) on the planet. Our actors and crew have been working very hard to raise the monster genre bar. As always, let’s have some fun. Let’s shoot.

I hope they go loud and dopey with this one. I do not need a 'serious' movie about a video game.
