It’s a retelling of The Little Mermaid from the Sea Witch’s perspective - it’s more about the Sea Witch and her origin story. (0 more)
It seemed to drag a bit in parts and was a bit disappointing from what I hoped for. (0 more)

I'm not sure what to make of Venom really. It's ok, quite funny at times. Some of the action scenes are good. Overall though the story felt quite weak. Torn between a Deadpool style of humour and trying to be a good origin story as well. Not quite hitting Marvel's high standards.

The tone of the first book in this series maked it a fun read while having a dark origin story. (0 more)
Some might object to the useage of witchcraft and making it positive for kids. (0 more)
Fun novel for all ages
What we have here is a well told origin story which does a good job of getting readers wanting more. We have the story of Harry Potter who live with his aunt and uncle. He is treated badly. One day he discovers he has magical powers and is invited to study at Hogwarts school of magic. There he learns about his parents and his past with an evil wizard. This is a great start to an adventure.

Hilarious
I've always loved how undeniably awkward Paul Rudd can be. His ability to deliver lines as dry as burnt toast is what made this movie for me. This origin story, perfectly captured Scott Lang and how he became a superhero. An excellent introduction of Ant-Man.

A Good Eliot Ness origin story based upon the prohibition era.
It's a good Costner vehicle with a strong supporting cast that makes this film engaging, however Sean Connery cannot do an accent of any kind, but this doesn't detract too badly from this fine movie.

Dark, intense, dramatic. A career defining performance by Joaquin Phoenix. A tourdeforce script with dynamic direction. A skilled cast keep your eyes glued to the screen. Great! (1 more)
It's a slow burner, but even during those 'look away' moments - you can't!! It sets up Joker's origin story perfectly.
No Joke!
