The MacPhersons never fail to make me laugh, and this comic strip collection is no exception.

Erika (17789 KP) rated Ultimate Comics: The Ultimates, Volume 2: Two Cities, Two Worlds in Books

Feb 24, 2018

The Ultimates are still not my favorite, but I liked this volume more than the first one. However, it didn't make me want to read more. I can now live my entire life without reading another Ultimates comic.

Great Read

I have just finished this book and thoroughly enjoyed it. I would recommend to anyone that enjoys Norse mythology and any marvel fan who wants to know the history behind the comic God and his family.

Book Favorite

"Published in 1942, this marvellously mordant account of the first years of World War II, less known than the wonderful Decline and Fall and A Handful of Dust, is perhaps Waugh's most flawless comic novel. Every word tells."

Actors bring this classic comic book adaptation to life and give it a good story backing. (0 more)

The fight scenes are under choreographed and it shows in the miniature mistakes. (0 more)

Heaton is on point as Nicholson gives good account

In an era where comic adaptations are starting to become a thing again, this attempt at barman leaves little to imagination. Both Keaton and Nicholson give extremely good performances on what was a fairly lacklustered storyline. All a bit predictable. That being said, the performance of Nicholson took it above and beyond.

Movie Rating

Light-as-a-feather comic fantasy is strikingly risque given it was made in the 1940s. A mermaid takes a short holiday in London (disguised as a woman confined to a wheelchair) and carves a swathe through the men she encounters, much to the indignation of their wives and fiancees.

Cheery stuff, with nice comic performances from Glynis Johns and Margaret Rutherford. Surprisingly suggestive as well - the male lead is clearly implied to be at it with the mermaid despite being a married man. Not at all meant to be taken seriously, but charming nevertheless.
