Movie Rating

I've lost track of how many Marvel movies there are - we must be into our 20s at least by now!

And, unfortunately, I found this one of the weakest so far, despite the 'star power' that it includes in its cast (most woefully the massively underused Salma Hayek or Angelina Jolie), with its large cast of central character - 10, I think - all on the earth since millennia BC, all un-aging (and the inspiration for our myths and legends) and all massively bored.

Which, unfortunately, is how I felt for large parts of the movie - it actually took me several attempts to make it the whole way through (watched in Disney+).

I've heard it works better the second time around, once you know a few key plot points and details, but I'm not in any hurry for a rewatch,

Kudos

very frank and honest views (0 more)

A wonderful insight

I grew up supporting Liverpool FC and do to this day. I remember the highs of the eighties and the lows of the nineties. This candid and frank collection of interviews with both players and managers delves into the reasons behind Liverpools gradual decline in English football in the nineties. Its a turthful behind the scenes diagnosis and autopsy on a Liverpool side who failed to be the dominant force that they were in the Eighties. From player ego's, mis-managment and an unwillingness to modernise this bares it all and is well worth a read if you have read the first insalment (The Red Machine). There is also a third book entitled Ring of Fire which i shall also be reading. A very good read and pute to bed some of the myths associated with 'The Spice Boys' :)
