Great Acting
Proper Kick Ass
That's how you do a superhero movie!
I've always known Wonder Women as a huge icon in the DC franchise however with limited spotlight in over the last 20 years she was kinda off my radar - until I saw this! The movie is fantastic, It's got a great story (believable) and just the right amount of superhero action to appreciate what they are capable of. Gal and the team did a superb job and I can even go as far to say it is probably one if my all time favourite superhero movies. Loved it

Amazing nod to my childhood
Wow, simple as that!
Was so excited for this film and can safely say it didn't disappoint me. The storyline is brilliant and well thought out. The characters are likeable without being irritating. The most amazing part for me was watching the film over and over looking out for all the hidden characters from my childhood.
The icing on the cake was the epic battle with the Iron Giant, Mecha Godzilla and Gundam Wing!!!!!!!
Must watch for anyone born in 80s or 90s who loves games and fantasy.

Well it had me!
This is quite a complex film - or at least it was for me.
A time travelling agent must stop the ‘Fizzle Bomber’ and change the damage that they will do. Ethan Hawke was brilliant in this role. Very watchable and it really had me wondering what would happen next, and who was responsible. Time paradoxes are at the centre of this, and I really didn’t ‘get it’ at all. Which was good, in my opinion. My husband got the ending well before me, but I think that just means that I got to enjoy it for longer!

Constant suspense
Jordan Peele doing what he does best
I believe that Jordan Peele (one of my favourite directors recently) has truly found his forte. Successfully, he creates another amazing horror film that leaves you tingling with suspended throughout the entire film. The cast also have been chosen perfectly for their roles and the characterisation that comes with them, however this can only be done with skilled actors such as Lupita Nyong'o. Only problem was the tethered lady's voice which sounded like she needed a good cough (just joking ? ). Brilliant film though

Tennant outstanding
Sheen outstanding
Funky fresh show
This show packs a lot in and keeps it moving forward well. Had never read the book so didn't know what to expect. The concept of the story if brilliant and the cast deliver a solid performance. As much as I love David Tennant I kept getting a little frustrated at him doing his best Bill Nighy impression and started the think that maybe Bill Nighy would have been a good choice for Crowley. The show was very satisfying to watch and is definitely one to put on your playlist.

The hugely talented Mr Jackman
Amazing
A constant stream of powerful, catchy songs all accompanied by fantastic choreography and eye popping visuals. Hugh Jackman is brilliant as showman P T Barnum, as is Zac Efron and everyone else. I really couldn't find fault with this as far as entertainment value goes. My daughter has been playing the soundtrack and singing the songs ever since we saw the movie and that's fine by me (for now!). It's wonderful when a movie comes along with the power to entertain and affect you long after leaving the cinema.
Dean (6927 KP) rated The Dark Knight Rises (2012) in Movies
Feb 3, 2018
A brilliant film and great ending....for now at least to this trilogy. Dark, gritty and brutal it doesn't feel like a comic book action hero film. It's more a harsh crime thriller! I thought Anne Hathaway was well cast as Catwoman as is Tom Hardy as Bane. The only problem I had was understanding everything Bane said through his face mask, at times the voice doesn't seem to match the villain? Only small minor gripes though, still I have to add The Dark Knight is still my favourite of the 3 with this a close second.
Dean (6927 KP) rated WALL-E (2008) in Movies
Feb 3, 2018
A brilliant film in so many ways!! It is so simple with barely any dialogue, but it doesn't need it you can tell what is going on by the actions and expressions can say more than a thousands words with a film like this. It's cute, funny and smart and carries a message about the environment. Technically the level of detail in the animation is amazing and set new standards for all animations. There are slight influences from Short circuit in the design of Wall-e and 2001: A Space Odyssey as well later in the film. Do not miss this film!!

Feb 3, 2018
This is a brilliant music station, where you can compile your own music list, and save it, you can then play your choice of songs whenever you want to, for free, and just keep adding to your list. There are hundreds of choices, you just type in the singer or the name of the song ans Spotify brings up a long list of choices for that title for you to choose from
