Welcome in today's review corner we are reviewing Movies. This past friday the release of Kevin Hart and Dwayne "Rock" Johnson hilarious action-comedy movie Central Intelligence. I got to opportunity to watch it on friday, and just what I had to say about is all in this review.
WARNING: This Review has spoilers in it.
Plot: A former high school superstar turned accountant is brought into the world of the CIA after his former classmate, whom he saved in HS, is accused of betraying his country. On the run to find the truth, they are fighting the CIA, and being hilarious.
Overall I thought the movie was incredible. I was a little worried about the partnership between Johnson and Hart for the film before it came out, but I was so wrong. Funny man Kevin Hart never disappoints, but the surprise was The Rock. The baywatch star was the true star of the show, and this dude is HILARIOUS. His character has a heart of gold, and Johnson plays that part with perfection. When it came down to the action and time to get serious, Johnson definitely showcases his versatility. I love that we can see the more goofy side of him in this film. It definitely makes me want him to work more in comedic acting.
Another amazing thing about the movie was they made the action funny. The fight scenes were UNBELIEVABLY funny. Hart and Johnson made every second of that movie enjoyable to watch. The blend with action and comedy was seamless.
There were several messages throughout the story line. From standing up to a bully to having your friends back to being yourself, this movie brings lessons on lessons. The movie was funny obviously, but I liked how it brought different parts of my emotions. Johnson's character makes a speech at the end that made me cry about being yourself, and how his friend got him to that point.. It had romance. Speaking of which, Melissa McCarthy steals the show at the end of the movie with Johnson's character as they expressed their love for one another. Anyways, It made me feel different emotions throughout the movie, and I definitely learned a lot from it. It was funny, it was sad, it was romantic, it was dramatic, and it was epic. I give this movie 4-crowns, and I definitely recommend you go see it.

This week in TV Orange is the New Black was released via Netflix. This is there 4th season, and I am telling you, you DO NOT want to miss this. I am still in the middle of watching the season, but next week that is what I will be reviewing. So keep your eyes peeled. I recommend you get started, and if you haven't you need to. This show is absolutely incredible.
This week is also the season premiere of Pretty Little Liars and The Fosters. I am more into Pretty Little Liars, but they are both really good shows. This will be probably be the last season of PLL so if you are a fan than you know this is a must-see event. You catch the Pretty Little Liars season premiere Tuesday on Freeform.

This week in Spotlight in Music we are talking about Nick Jonas' Sophomore Album, Last Year was Complicated. So I had a chance to listen to it, and if you haven't I have at the bottom of this.
So the album is about how his life was last year, and I was really excited to see what Jonas had to offer after the success of his first album, and the song "Close" feat Tove Lo. Sadly I was disappointed. Like the material, and lyrics were good for some of the songs, but the music paired with some of them did not blend well. I absolutely love him, but not this album. I like it when he is simple not drowned by pop/edm beats and hip hop twist. My favorite song on the album was "Close" until I heard "Unhinged." I liked it because it was simple and the lyrics were extraordinary. I also like "Bacon" with its hip hop flare and catchy lyrics. Overall I give this album 2.5 stars.
If you want to listen to the album here you go.
