Fight Valley is seriously going to be in theatres? It looks barely fit to meet xhamster quality standards.

Why are these fighters always appearing in this dreck? Don't any of them have agents?
Rampage can't act worth a damn and he was still in A-Team FFS.

Critics' Reviews for STAR TREK BEYOND
Rotten Tomatoes: 85% approval rating (144 out of 169 critics like it)
Critics Consensus: Star Trek Beyond continues the franchise's post-reboot hot streak with an epic sci-fi adventure that honors the series' sci-fi roots without skimping on the blockbuster action.
Entertainment Weekly - Ultimately, Beyond is a movie about characters - and character. But that's half the battle. The other half of the battle is... battle. And Lin, who has such a strong track record with vehicular mayhem, doesn't bring his "A" game. C+
Newark Star-Ledger - While this is not your father's "Star Trek," it still feels like a fan's - and just the kind of warm, inclusive, feel-good entertainment this summer needs. 3.5/4
Richard Roeper - What a load of fun. Star Trek Beyond plays like an extended version of one of the better episodes from the original series, and I mean that in the best possible way. 3/4
James Berardinelli - The action sequences are frenetic, kinetic, and at times incoherent. But the plot, credited to Simon Pegg & Doug Jung, is pure Trek. Unfortunately, it’s also instantly forgettable. 2.5/4
Rolling Stone - It's plenty fast and furious but it also openly gives its heart to what came before. Come to 'Star Trek Beyond' for the pow; stay for the emotional wipeout. 3/4

Critics' Reviews for LIGHTS OUT
Rotten Tomatoes: 78% approval rating (73 out of 94 critics like it)
Critics Consensus: Lights Out makes skillful use of sturdy genre tropes -- and some terrific performances -- for an unsettling, fright-filled experience that delivers superior chills without skimping on story.
Entertainment Weekly - Like the most enjoyable horror movies, Lights Out is almost a physical experience, carrying viewers from stress and terror to even some tension-breaking hilarity. B-
New York Daily News - Unsettling enough to make you think twice about what might be in the room with you when the lights go out. 4/5
James Berardinelli - Unfortunately, the film stumbles, offering too few legitimate scares and displaying an overreliance on traditional horror movie clichés. 2/4
Washington Post - "Lights Out" deserves to be considered in the company of such recent horror standouts as "It Follows," "The Babadook," "Goodnight Mommy" and "The Witch." 3.5/4
Richard Roeper - Even the most cynical, jaded, seen-it-all-before critic cannot deny certain visceral reactions to a film. Lights Out gave me the chills. 4/4

From IMDB re: Fight Valley
First off Holly Holm is prominently featured on the cover of the movie yet is in it for all of 10 seconds. Now that I've got that out of the way on to the movie. This will be short and sweet. The acting, editing, sound, and anything else you can think of that's involved in making a movie is all horrible. The acting though takes the prize as all "actors" involved were so ridiculously bad that I started to think it was a joke, but my friends, unfortunately the only joke was that I watched the whole movie. The "actors" didn't seem to know when they were supposed to say their lines and most times their mannerisms didn't match what they were saying or supposed to be doing. The only reason I watched the entire movie is that I was not watching it alone because if I were alone I would have split after about 20 minutes if that. As bad as the editing was I feel that the fact that the director and actors did such a bad job hindered anything an editor could do with the slop in the can. As far as this movie having a 6.7 rating after only about 10 or so ratings, well I think that can be chalked up to paid for reviews. Either that or the handful of reviews were done by friends and/or family of the film maker . Truly awful!!!

And apparently the budget for Fight Valley was $27 Million.
How is that even possible? That's some Adam Sandler accounting.

It doesn't even meet xhamster standards - there's probably no nudity involved.

Some films are made to lose money for tax purposes.
This is exactly why Uwe Boll gets so many movies made.
I'm not kidding.

It's true, though. Or rather, I read that it was true.
Uwe Boll.
It's the only way it makes sense.

Weekend Box Office:
STAR TREK BEYOND Beams Up $59.6 Million; ICE AGE 5 Bombs with $21 Million
Justin Lin's Star Trek Beyond beamed up a strong $59.6 million from 3,928 theaters in North America, more than enough to win the weekend and marking one of the best openings of summer to date.
Still, 14 percent is a relatively modest drop. And it's nothing compared to Ice Age: Collision Course, which fell off a cliff in its domestic debut with $21 million from 3,392 theaters — 55 percent behind the 2012 launch of Ice Age: Continental Drift ($46.6 million) and the worst showing for an animated studio tentpole in a decade.
The good news: Collision Course, which eked out a fifth-place finish, is faring better overseas, grossing another $30 million this weekend from 60 markets for a foreign total of $178 million and global cume of $199 million.
It remains to be seen whether Fox is ready to close the door on the Ice Age series. The films have now earned $3 billion worldwide, making it the most successful animated franchise in history.
When it came to animation, U.S. audiences preferred Universal and Illumination Entertainment's animated holdover The Secret Life of Pets, which placed No. 2 in its third weekend with $29.3 million from 4,048 locations for a domestic total of $260.7 million and worldwide haul of $323.7 million (Pets earned another $10 million overseas this weekend.)
Elsewhere, New Line and Warner Bros.' supernatural horror film Lights Out, which cost under $5 million to make, tied with Ghostbusters for No. 3 with a better-than-expected $21.6 million from 2,818 theaters, thanks to a strong turnout from younger moviegoers.
Sony's Ghostbusters fell a 53 percent in its second weekend, by far the largest drop for a movie directed by Paul Feig. The reboot has now earned $86.9 million domestically. Overseas, it took in another $10.5 million from existing markets for a foreign cume of $36 million and global total of $122.9 million.

Critics' Reviews for ICE AGE: COLLISION COURSE
Rotten Tomatoes: 13% approval rating (11 out of 87 critics like it)
Critics Consensus: Unoriginal and unfunny, Ice Age: Collision Course offers further proof that not even the healthiest box office receipts can keep a franchise from slouching toward creative extinction.
Entertainment Weekly - The Ice Age series was never great cinema, but there's always been a sense of heart under all the wisecracks and zany antics. Collision Course abandons that in favor of already stale pop culture references and laughless jokes. C-
New York Daily News - Like the very asteroid that is hurtling towards Earth in the movie, "Ice Age: Collision Course" is chunky, clunky and bulky. 2.5/5
James Berardinelli - Ice Age: Collision Course, the fifth installment in this lamentably long-lived animated franchise, is the last Ice Age movie I intend to see. 2/4
Rolling Stone - The fifth entry in the Ice Age series is a loud, lazy, laugh-starved cash grab that cynically exploits its target audience (I use the term advisedly) by serving them scraps and calling it yummy. 1/4

Ghostbusters tied at the box office by a movie with a $5M budget. I don't know if that's a woman thing or a black thing, but I'm not happy about it.

Agreed. Why was this movie even made?
