Fun!
This sci-fi action adventure turned out to be a great flick! Good acting with great cinematography/visuals and a well written story line. The really cool combination of CGI and live action made this a really fun story to watch. Interesting take on the future with the "battle" roller derby games and the cyborg usage. All you sci-fi fans will enjoy this movie. Worth a watch!

Aquaman
This movie has done a wonderful job of staying close to its comic book roots. The visual effects are beautiful and believable.The storyline keeps it moving with a surprise near the end. Jason Momoa is absolutely perfect for this tough guy , coming of age, softie character. He knows what's important and fights to protect it. My 13 year old son who says he " HATES SUPERHEROES " loved this is movie.

A good story for a film, based on the Anime film....from what I saw almost scene for scene the same? Sadly this is ruined by really dodgy CGI for the blood and gore. Some of the creature design is not so good either, and you'd barely known it had a vampire in it. It has a couple of great sword fights but not enough to save the film.

Fantastic
Watched the whole series. Really enjoyed. CGI not brilliant but definitely passable. Tennant is great as a demon, the only part I didn't think flowed was the scene with the plants. The whole series made the demon seemed a little more neutral than the whole putting the fear of everything into the plants. Otherwise fantastic if you want a funny and enjoyable fantasy.

Decent Remake
It's a good story and film, I saw the Swedish version first, so kinda spoils any surprises, as it is a scene for scene re-work. In fact I'd say some of the key scenes were better in the original version. Why they added some dodgy cgi in places is anyones guess? Have to say Chloe Moretz is one to watch for the future, great young actress.

Much better than I had expected. A big budget, action packed, fun new vision of Sherlock Holmes. A good well picked cast, great visuals, quite a lot of cgi and plenty of humour. Nice to see Guy Ritchie do more than just East London Gangster films! Also features the quickest journey from the Houses of Parliament to Tower Bridge ever, artistic licence for you!! Sequel out next year!

I cannot begin to explain how much I love this movie. I must have watched it atleast 20 times already! I am in love with Wonder Woman, she is such a strong female lead and that’s something DC really needed! The story line is brilliant and the only slight draw back would be the predictable CGI villain! However I would watch this for Wonder Woman and Etta Candy alone!

Ah, good old Guardians of the Galaxy. This is a really fun movie that's a great addition to the MCU. I enjoyed it very much. I definitely enjoy this movie and I think the VFX are very well done. One of my favorite things about this film is the CGI of Rocket Racoon. It's really well done. I'm a fan of James Gunn's direction of the film as well.

Lacklustre sequel that has lost its heart.
Howard again seems to stand about adding zero value to the narrative, thankfully we dont get as many close ups of her shoes this time.
The third act picks up a little as the dino auction scenes were quite entertaining, but this isnt enough to plaster over the holes in the plot and the overuse of CGI, worth a watch but nothing special.

If there was ever a movie that built hype and promised so much, it was this one.
What a complete let down, from the ropey and excessive use of CGI to the poor story which effectively was one action set piece after another, and did I mention how dark and poorly lit it is, possibly done in this way to disguise the poor effects.
This is not worth your precious time.
