I loved this film, and as spiderman is my favourite hero im glad that this was done great.
Iron man didnt steal the show, it only added more depth and created more space for story telling.
I love that he is not straight away brilliant with his powers, just like the rest of the MCU with there new powers comes a learning curve.
If the learning curve is falling through the roof as ironman, or falling through a shop window as captain america. spider man nails this with his swing into the floor.
I would like to see some more villians, spidermans villians are the most creative that it would be interesting

I really enjoyed this sequel that I had been waiting years for. The animation in the original is good but somehow they got even better for the sequel.

The plot was interesting and it was nice to see how the Parrs dealt with life after the events of the first movie. And seeing the kids actually saving the day and taking lead, rather than only helping.

I liked getting to see Helen take a bigger superhero role while getting to see Robert connect with the kids, who had their own normal kid problems not related to powers, mostly (for Violet and Dash at least). And Jack-Jacks powers and interactions with Edna were a delight.

I did not like the bright flashing lights that got the movie the seizure warnings. Just looking at them was painful, causing a headache, and that's without having issues with seizures.

But overall, I really enjoyed this movie.

Horror-SF from David Cronenberg. A man with psychic powers is sent to infiltrate a dangerous network of others with similar abilities: they have many subtle telepathic and telekinetic powers, such as being able to make people's heads explode.

Actually rather less graphic and icky than the film's reputation (and advertising) might suggest; the really spectacularly gory bits bookend the movie, and much of the rest of it looks like a relatively conventional thriller. The film is arguably ahead of its time in its suspicion of the military-industrial complex and big pharma; there is perhaps a subtext about the souring of 60s idealism as free-thinkers are persecuted or exploited by vested interests. Pretty good performances from the hero and the villain, but (not really surprisingly) Patrick McGoohan steals the film as the protagonist's father-figure. A thoughtful and intelligent film that isn't afraid to really go for the splatter now and then.

The Dark Phoenix??

I have to begin by saying is I am glad Fox is done with the X men. This bad excuse for a Dark Phoenix story was by far the worst of the lot. I thought the Apocalypse movie was bad. They made one worse! I know there is only so much you can do in a movie but to call this The Dark Phoenix was not the right movie title. Maybe it should have been called X Men: The Alien Invasion. That's all this movie was...a story about Jean Grey getting the Phoenix powers and Aliens trying to get her and steal the powers to rebuild their race. That's the storyline. It seems there wasn't even an effort to tell the story half way right. But at the expense of going on a rant, Fox is done so maybe now Marvel can do the X men justice. My recommendation...don'r waste your time on this abomination.
