My favourite avenger returns in a highly enjoyable superior sequel. Marvel has got the formula just right here with a perfect blend of humour and action. The plot isn’t overly complex or requiring you to have an encyclopaedic knowledge of the timeline to enjoy but for those up on everything it does fill in some gaps of events between Infinity War and Endgame. The best thing about the film is of course Paul Rudd and I can’t think of anyone better suited for the role than him, this sequel improves on the original by having bigger roles for both Evangeline Lilly and Michael Douglas . The dynamic they have with Rudd makes for a very entertaining ride.

"It’s dramatically different [from The Godfather] in terms of this town and the world of it. It’s a good movie, tremendously. I’m a writer, so obviously I enjoy the content because it’s about writer things and writer dramas and writer people. It’s just one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen. I can watch that movie over and over again. Robert Downey Jr. gives one of his best performances ever. And very funny. And I love Michael Douglas in it; he’s great. But it also has this wonderful capacity for pathos in this very earned way. It doesn’t feel kitsch. It feels really earned and honest, so it can play those lines really well."

Forget the rather pointless Colin Farrell-starring 2012 remake, this is the original (and best) of the 2 movies to share the name, itself based on the Philip K Dick short story 'We Can Remember It for You Wholesale' - it bears little in common with that story, however, other than the idea of false memory implants!

Starring a pre-T2 Arnold Schwarzenegger alongside Sharon Stone and Michael Ironside, the main plot of this is actually open to interpretation: are these events actually happening, or is Arnie's character of Douglas Quaid dreaming them? Every thing that happens after he visits Rekall is left deliberately open to interpretation, even down to the film ending with a white out instead of a black out ...
