Batma vs Superman: Dawn of Justice "league" but we don't say that out out loud Extentard Edition 4/10
Eh. Let's just list it out:
Pros:
Mashes up Dark Knight Returns, Death[*] of Superman and a bit of Kingdom Come in one film.
Louis Lane Bathtime Poseable Action Figure.
Batfleck doesn't actually get that many lines.
Wonder Woman was the best thing in it.
Gal Gadot when she's scowling at a wind machine in slow motion.
Very little wrong with it.
Cons:
Batfleck
Gal Gadot when she's moving or walking or talking in, what was that, a Caribbean accent?, anyway not scowling at a wind machine in slow motion. Gina Carano was the Wonder Woman that we deserved.
Wonder Woman was the best thing in it.
Not really a film, so much as a CGI interpretation of a film.
About 9 hours too long.
Very little right with it.
Well at least we won't have to wonder if we'll ever get any decent versions of DKR, DoS or KC, so small mercies.
[*] Neil Gaiman was asked if his version of Death could feature in a post Death of Superman comic. He said "Sure, if he's not coming back to life in another few issues". And that was the last of that. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

Pacific Rim 2 uprising
I watched original with DVD and I didn't like it so much.
And I watched Pacific Rim 2 in the theatre today, story wasn't good, weird. Original was better. Only one good point of this movie was Cailee Spaeny was cute. ____________________ 2020 Touring Serow 250

And yet made up of really short scenes. It felt like a crap film they mercilessly tried to fix in the edit, failed to do so, committed mass suicide then put it out anyway.
In case you're wondering I was not a fan. |
4 was generous, but I was surprised by how bad some parts of it weren't. If you've read Kingdom Come - or the Moore/Gaiman Marvel/Miracleman - you can nerd out over the thematic influences.
Although, Moore's Marvelman would have just flown though Allan Ackbar, I guess. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

I Feel Pretty
Amy Schumer is a bit of a chunker with low self esteem, who is kept in a dark basement, working in IT. Following a Spincycle incident, she has a bang to the head which results in her seeing her inner beauty and thinking that the outside matches. Quite funny in parts, a bit preachy in others, it isn't a bad film, but I wouldn't say it was a great film. It was better than Snatched, but not as good as Trainwreck.
6.5/10
Deadpool 2: Electric Boogaloo
I loved the first film, and was really looking forward to Ryan Reynolds wearing red and turning the air blue. I wasn't disappointed. A solid couple of hours of swearing, violence and self-referential humour. I do think it suffers from John Wick Syndrome. Had the first film not existed, I would have said that this was a solid 10, but in comparison, it is the slightly shorter and slightly weaker twin. Still a 9.5, and it is definitely a brilliant film, I just love the original a little bit more.
Go and watch it. ____________________ thx1138 wrote: Well if you had a car, I'd bet it would smell like urine had had drunken sex with vomit and made a poo baby.

[Netflix] Stratton 2/10
I thought I'd give Dominic Cooper a fair shake, but his SEAL buddy clearly got there first. You know those navy types.
Urgh, British action films, just why. In the first two minute, they're running around with fingers on triggers, and they never take them off, which sends up a rocket that nobody involved with making this cared in the slightest about what they were doing.
Weirdest accent among many is Connie Matronbosom as an MI6 chief. She... guys, you know she's Danish, right? And she's trying to do some sort of upper class English voice. Weird and creepy.
Cooper can't really pick an accent either. Gemma Chan has face appeal, but unfortunately they let her speak too, which doesn't work out so well. Den zere arrr zaa bahdies who er alll ovar za playyyyhs.
Characterisation is attempted then averted. Someone does the one thing he was explicitly told not to do, and the consequences that were promised simply don't happen, for no reason at all, good or bad.
There's a basic plot, of sorts, and a plot twist. You'll never guess who the traitor is. I guess he... slithered in. Yes, it's that obvious a film.
Why?

The only 2 noteworthy films I've watched recently are Infinity War and Deadpool 2...
Infinity War: It looked great from the trailer and a friend spoiled the 'who died' before I'd seen it... OK it is the same old Marvel stuff, lots of funnies but also very dark at times.
It felt like it was lacking something though... maybe it was just too much hype and I expected more, but I did end up with a lot of questions by the end of it (mainly how can there be any sequels to any of the other movies when the characters are dead )
Anyway I was looking forward to watching it and thoroughly enjoyed it... so I'd say 9/10
Deadpool 2: Again I've been getting spammed with adverts for this for the last couple of months.... which usually means it's shit.
Without giving the story away, it starts off very funny, gets very serious with random fast paced jokes.... overall I'm undecided if it was better than the first, but it's definitely worth a watch.... it was slightly better than Infinity War though, but still gets rounded to 9/10 |

'Finity War - Loved it/ 10
The Black Order, I thought were quite terrifying. In Scotchockland, the train station, there was yeaaaaahhhh go America, moment. Waiting to fight the horde in Wakanda ... goo oooon laaaairrrrddssss.
Seeing Thor actually become even harder than in Thor 3 and be a complete baddass; mint. Very looking forward to the sequel, and before that, Captain Marvel.
'Pool 2 - Loved this one an'all/10
Like the first, with more money. Taika Waititi's mate, Julian Dennison, playing pretty much the same character as in Hunt for the Wilderpeople but with some powers and a secret pen stash
Fixed some errors of history; bloody Vinnie Jones' attempt is now deleted from my brain and "Deadpool" and Peter.
I laughed a lot. ____________________ I'm Sam; Northern, Ginger, Lover
