Top Five Movies from 5/2/2014

It's officially comic book season at the movie theaters. With the first weekend in May upon us we have the token super hero series of our generation The Amazing Spider-Man 2 releasing. The second film in the rebooted series lives off the idea of quantity over quality. That's not really bad thing in a genre where more is always better than less but I would have liked them to tone it down a little bit. The sequel is better than its predessor but that's not saying a whole lot. It'll be huge at the box office and will be great water cooler fodder for the next couple of weeks.

The Other Woman has proven to be a winner with viewers and critics. See it.

Brick Mansions didn't clean up at the box office last weekend and that's okay. It'll be seen by hundreds of every Saturday on FX a couple of years from now.

In fourth we have Captain America 2 which is finally slowing down. Capt had a great run at the box office and is still a better movie than the Spider-man sequel. Bears pulls up the rear. Check it out, it has bears in it.
