The best Wolverine film by far
This is the Wolverine film we've all been waiting for, and this is the kind of film they should've made to begin with (instead of the Origins etc).
This is a very fitting final outing for Wolverine. I loved the violence, it's refreshing to see a more adult Marvel film for a change - possibly taking it's lead from Deadpool? Some great turns from Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart too. My only complaint would be that the film gets a bit repetitive - Wolverine goes somewhere to hide out, gets found, fights, moves on - could've done without this quite so many times.

Amazing Continuation :)
Contains spoilers, click to show
Oh man sooo much happened! This book was amazing, all the gore and violence was still there with a hint of family, romance and homeliness. *SpoilerAlert* I was horrified in certain bits and I couldn't help feel that something more happened to Fade when he was captured but perhaps it wasn't explained because this is designed for a young adult audience. I was still rooting for Stalker and he snuck in a couple of kisses but no solid romancing for him yet :( I grinned my ass off at the end when they all chose to go with Deuce. Cannot wait to start the Horde :)

Gore - what is it good for?
I don't think it's spoilery to say don't come to this film expecting a typical WW2 film. Yes it's set on the eve of D Day but most people know by now this is a bloody horror film not a war film. It's gory - oh so gory! There is one scene in particular that is so good that I was cringing and laughing at the same time - and yes you will end up laughing as this is not a serious film. But it doesn't try to be. It's Nazis getting very violently dispatched and honestly who doesn't enjoy that.

When I grow up, I want to be Hit Girl!
I really like this film, and I’ve watched it more than once! It’s very cartoonish in its delivery, and that’s just fine by me! Although that is kind of counteracted by the extreme violence and the language (I have to admit that I laughed A LOT when Hit Girl uses the ‘C’ word - I think that’s a British thing, possibly ??♀️) .
I’ve no doubt this will get watched again in my house - I have two teenaged boys who have been brought up in a house of graphic novels and superhero/ Marvel/ DC movies, so it’s a strong likelihood!

I didn't know too much about this film before I saw it. Just saw the cast line up and gave it a go. Only now after watching I can see what all the controversy was about. It's a re-make of a '76 film of the same name. A dark, disturbing, brutally violent yet gripping thriller. The violence towards women in this film was quite shocking and didn't need to be as graphic as it is. Otherwise this is a good thriller with a few twists along the way as a deputy sheriff in a small town has one psychotic episode after another trying to cover up his previous mis-doings!

The best fight choreography since The Raid: Redemption
A surprisingly touching story, much deeper than: Man's dog gets killed.
John Wick was a surprise hit for me. I got the amazing action I expected and wanted, but the heart behind the story surprised me. I was expecting a simple revenge flick, what I got was a movie about a man releasing his anger at the life that had been taken away from him too soon (his wife's) in a way that gave sympathy for his plight (the death of his puppy). Remarkably touching between all the violence, this movie is a cant miss.

Black Boy White School was a book that I thoroughly enjoyed. For many people, they feel this not really belonging anywhere at some point in their life, just as our main character here did.
I was very sad at the end of the book because I was really hoping that he would continue at Belton Academy. However, due to financial problems, he was unable to return.
I would love to read a sequel to this book. Lots of interesting topics could be pursued, especially if he remains in Cleavland (such as how he deals with no longer fitting in, how he deals with violence, etc.)

This Netflix "teen drama" original isn't so original. It's basically a modern day "Fatal Attraction" (showing my age? Lol) with high schoolers. It wasn't too bad, though. The acting was decent enough and the cinematography is on par with many modern movies. Nothing too graphic in this but has some mild sexual content and violence. I found myself asking the same question I always do with movies like this.... Why aren't the characters a little more honest and a little smarter? Lol. Guess it wouldn't be very dramatic and definitely wouldn't last long enough to be a movie. Overall I'd say it's worth a watch if you can't find much else.
