Wow. I haven't been so underwhelmed by a Marvel movie in a while. (Actually that's a lie I just saw Eternals a little while ago). There were a lot of issues plaguing this movie, but the off-beat humor and poor CGI were probably the worst.

The script
Could be a lot worse, but could be a lot better.
The script wasn't particularly boring or entertaining, and the acting was wooden and the story hard to follow. The CGI was decent, though, especially for the time.

RDJ's accent
So much potential!
I have to say I was really looking forward to this film, a great cast and some good look trailers, and social media snippets. However I have to say I was very underwhelmed with the film as a whole, the voice acting was top notch, however the CGI animals at time looked like they did in the late 2000's. My biggest gripe about the whole film was the very bad supposedly Welsh accent from Robert Downey Jr, as he was the main character and in most scenes this really spoilt my enjoyment of what potentially could have been a great film.

A turbulent series
A decent series that will get you hooked early on. Shades of Lost after a plane lands after hitting some turbulence, only for the passengers to find out they have been missing for 5 years.
This is followed by strange events connecting the passengers as they have a type of connection.
It starts well and there is a real interest to find out what happened and why. Mid-series it takes a slightly different direction for a few episodes but is back on track with strange revelations by the end. Enjoyable just a shame about some of the poor cgi used in some scenes.

Watched last night I loved it almost 10 of ten but for some of the cgi which could have been better but anyway still liked the movie wasn't sure about ezra miller because of his problems with the law and that but he's rather good in both roles and then there's Michael keaton back as batman for the first time since batman returns who steals the movie for me and sasha callie as supergirl who doesn't get as much screen time as the others star In the making maybe won't be the last we will see as supergirl. Anyway good film

A great mix of action, horror and good special effects with some humour as well. Top popcorn viewing material. One of the best Shark films even now!

Disney's continuing attempt to plunder and CGI-ize their old properties continues with this, the remake of the 1994 original and released 25 years later.

There's no denying that it is technically and visually impressive; however it lacks a certain something compared to the animated original.

Weak villain
Well it's definitely the best DC film so far...
Despite the rave reviews for this film, I hadn't been expecting much mainly as DC films of late haven't really been very good (excluding Nolan's of course). Wonder Woman is by far the best DC film out of the recent bunch, but I'm afraid that's all it really has going for it.

Gal Gadot is a good casting choice as Diana and she does very well. Chris Pine too is perhaps underused but fairly charismatic. I did wonder whether Ewen Bremner is required to play the same character in every film? Or he's sadly just been typecast.


The main issue with this film is the week villain and the ridiculous CGI. There was no real threat of anything from Ares and as with most other superhero films lately, he came across as a very boring and poor adversary. And he was made up of far too much CGI. The whole film really had too much CGI in general, too much slow motion and most of it looked a bit shoddy. Less is more! And the plot itself set within a world war all seemed very Captain America, which was done quite a long time ago now!


In all it was an alright superhero film, with a good female lead. I just wouldn't go out of my way to watch it again.
