Lost the old Indy magic
I have finally seen it and have mixed feelings. It just doesn't have some of the old Indy magic. The story is even more far fetched than usual and maybe it's a bit overloaded with CGI as well. Cate Blanchett's character is a bit OTT almost to the point of feeling like a comic book character. Overall still an entertaining film but not up there with the first three.

Black panther
My favorite captain America saved the best one for the thrid movie also making it an avengers movie as well which works well basically the plot is taken from the civil war comic book with both spider man and black panther joining the marvel universe movies both Evans and downey Jr. Are excellent as the leads leading both sides of the arugement who's right and who's wrong thumbs up from me

Following Lee and Clementine is one of the hardest, saddest, and painfullest journey's I've had to make since Last of Us. Ok not that bad but dammit the feels are real. The controls are stupid and looking for batteries is a pain in the ass, but the cast has someone for everyone.... to hate. I'M LOOKING AT YOU DUCK!
The show starts off pretty campy and I thought it was meant to be a spoof. As the series continues the show attempts to be more serious, with a bit of comic relief. All in all, it is not a bad show. The special effects are not in any way cheesy. In my opinion, it would have fared a bit better by deciding what type of show it wanted to be from the beginning and committing.

So Quill discovers his Father is in gfact this alien being called Ego...quite appropriate. Its all part of a plan to remake the universe in his own image.
While the film has a few good moments (baby Groot, Yandu, Rocket all have stand out scenes) it's ultimately a run of the mill, by the numbers comic book movie. Yes it's pretty, yes it's got a big budget, no I didn't enjoy it.

An enjoyable film to add to the series and very similar to the 2nd but set in China basically. It has good special effects, stunts etc but it does miss Rachel Wiesz in her role. Maria Bello is a fine actress but not sure she is suited to the comic moments as much, good attempt at the English accent though lol. Overall more of the same from the last one but nothing we haven't seen in the first two.

Enjoyable lighthearted thriller
I only saw a brief trailer for this but it sounded like a decent thriller with its more comic moments. The plot is most like that of @Gone Girl (2014) but not as dark in content. I enjoyed it although the final act is quite busy but it draws to a good conclusion after plenty of twists and turns. The 2 female leads make the film good for me.

Simply Epic!
After first appearing in the standalone Wolverine film, much to fans ire, he has been given another shot to make right from the first failed attempt at bringing the character to the big screen. Action packed with plenty of fourth wall breakage you can't go wrong! Sorry kids, this is a comic book film for us adults.
This book is a quick must-read for anyone that's in love with books! Not every comic was spot-on, but they were pretty close! (Others were like looking in a mirror.) The comics are hilarious and true for those of us that love to read. I actually laughed out loud when I came to the one about places I keep my books. That's right, I laughed, right next to my little stack of books on the couch!

Excellent series that refreshes tee genre
Not going to dwell on the story about conglomerate super heroes and the source of justice for one of them killing the leads girlfriend in an accident. All I can say is its amazing, adult and isn't afraid to be graphic. Utterly excellent and honours the comic book series.
