Fantastic acting from Jake Gyllenhaal and Riz Ahmed (0 more)
The horror is almost cringeworthy (0 more)
Extremely grim world of night crawling
This shows the basest nature of humankind. Wrapped up in greed and death, Jake Gyllenhaal's character is almost sociopathic in trying to get ahead by being first at crimes and accidents, and selling it to the media. At times you want to look away at the sheer horror of it all, but just like an audience or consumer you keep watching the train wreck.

A good origin story
This is another Marvel comic origin story, so yes it's fairly predictable. However for me it's one of the better Marvel films I've seen in recent years. Due to its mind and universe bending nature, it has a completely different feel to the other super hero films. Benedict Cumberbatch is a great addition to the Marvel line-up, however his accent does get pretty dodgy at times. It's intriguing, funny and the special effects are fantastic.

Poignant look at how Alzheimer's affects an entire family
A wonderful but tragic look into the downward spiral of a professor with Alzheimer's through the perspective of his daughter. With short bursts of journal entries and quirky anecdotes, she documents how quickly his health deteriorates. It's bittersweet for the most part, given the nature of the subject but it is juxtaposed with the unravelling of her own life, which becomes less significant when she focuses on her father. A great read.

Very good film, some of the scenes reminded me of Harry Potter and King Kong with the scenery and music. The only problem was that you knew Tarzan would win in the end as that was the nature of the story. Also not having watched the main Tarzan film for many years I couldn’t remember why Jane was bought up in the jungle and this was not really explained in the film, although you did have several flashbacks with Tarzan himself.
