Sylvester Stallone starring superheroics - his first since Judge Dredd? (not counting cameo in GotG vol 2) - - in which he plays the part of a recluse, who a young boy next door believes to be thought-to-be-dead superhero Samaritan, who supposedly died following a confrontation with his equally superpowered twin brother Nemesis twenty years earlier,

So it's immediately apparent where this one is going.

It's not bad, actually: just not brilliant. Think 90s style superhero films, before the MCU came to be.

Set your expectation accordingly.

Too long (0 more)
First things first no spoilers here from me probably the best marvel movie out this year and that’s saying something from fitting tribute to chadwick Bosman t challa himself who’s definitely missed thruout the movie to the introduction of two new characters in Namor and riri Williams. But this movie belongs to Letitia wright as Shuri has get over the loss of her brother and the challenge of namor. One small gripe it’s too long at 2 hours and 45 mins long

The Poet X By: Elizabeth Acevedo
Young Adult 357 Pages

This book is written in verse. I wasn't a fan of this book so I only gave it 3 stars. I am getting use to reading books that are written in verse and starting to enjoy them. They are actually quick reads.
The main character is 16 year old girl named Xiomara. She has a twin brother, Xavier and her best friend, Caridad. Mom is from the Dominican Republic and Dad is from America. Mom married Dad to come to the states but she really wanted to become a nun. Mom is extremely religious. Dad doesn't do much. He is a womanizer. X loves to write poetry and her brother gave her notebook one year for their birthday to keep them in. She hates going to church. She isn't allowed to date or have contact with boys except for her brother. She is punished for the smallest things. (SPOILER) For example when she starts her period. Her mom hasn't told her anything about this or allowed her to watch the movie that they show in school so she has to look it up on google to figure out what to do. She gets money from a stash and goes to the store to get tampons but doesn't insert correctly and cries. Her mother is freaking out telling her that 11 is to young to be having a period and that only ho's use tampons. In high school during biology she meets a boy, Aman. They like each other and find ways to see each other. This is were her best friend helps out. They are eventually discovered and mom goes nuts. X wants to join the poetry club at school but mom makes her go to confirmation classes at the church. Again her best friend helps her to be able to eventually go to poetry club. There are a few more things that happen and make the book interesting I just could not stand the mom in this story.
Brother has a secret what is it? Does mom and X get to understanding each other better? You will have to read the book to find out. Just be warned that mom is not a nice person.
