Okay, I've been under a rock the last few months. Here's some quick hits.
Guardians of the Galaxy
Actually saw it twice. I'm still not sure it really makes any sense, but reasonably compelling.
Whiplash
Entertaining and surprisingly funny, and most importantly sticks to its vision, even going as far as sort of taking the side of the main protagonist. It also makes the two leads realistically unlikable and reinforces the idea that obsessed people aren't that pleasant to be around in real life.
My only quibble with the drumming is that it waaaayyy overused someon eplaying so much their hands bled.
Guardians of the Galaxy
Really good, see it.
Gone Girl

Hunger games Mackingjay Part 1
I actually think this book gets a bad rap. Still not worth making into two films but moves pretty well for what it is.
Interstellar
Really strong opening hour or so that's almost undone by a ridiculous ending and completely unnecessary plot twist involving a cameo. Still ambitious and well worth seeing.
