The action in this movie is well done and the stunts were overall pleasant and somewhat nail biting. The more intense scenes were well shot and the music matched the pace of the scene whi...

So it's already halfway through 2017... So why not make a list of movies I can't wait to see next year! So with out further-ado, here is my top 5 most anticipated films for 2018 list! 5.) Avatar 2      I can't wait for the sequel to James Cameron's Avatar! If it really does come out in 2018 (and not        get pushed again)! 4.) Tomb Raider       "Another video game movie, this will only go bad!" Some of you will say, especially after the               terrible tomb raider films in the earlier 2000's. But hey, I'm willing to give it another chance. 3.) Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them 2      I enjoyed the first film of this harry potter spin-off series, I want to know if they can make another      decent film. 2.)
