X-Men: Dark Phoenix brings the X-Men saga to a conclusion after 19 years and 12 movies under the 20th Century Fox banner, as it gets absorbed into the Marvel canon behemoth, as has also happened to the Fantastic Four and Spider-Man… well, Spidey seems to be in AND out, since he appeared to have gone […]

No Comments » X-Men: Dark Phoenix is not too bad… not too bad at all. I did fear that all the best bits from the movie were in the trailer, but there’s plenty more in store to be quite enjoyable here. Some good battle scenes and emotional disagreements going on that don’t feel too contrived and fit the […]

Dark Phoenix now has a ‘Final’ trailer and… since seeing Trailer No.2, last time, and after watching X-Men: Apocalypse again last weekend on Channel 4, this new film just looks sooooooooooo familiar. Have they actually done anything new? Just a case of blowing everything up, and then you know they’ll be fine afterwards by the […]

Deadpool 2: You’ll laugh! You’ll cry! You’ll hear naughty words! First off, there’s a BIG Logan spoiler – as well as a non-spoilery note that the Wolverine was ‘riding on his coat tails’ for getting an R-rated film on the big screen (or 15-cert in the UK), but either way, if you haven’t seen that […]

Murder on the Orient Express – Listen very carefully; I shall review this only once! The flim centres around… yes, a murder, on the train known as the Orient Express. Bet that surprised you, eh? Someone has died, and someone is going to be fingered for the crime. And who better to do the fingering […]

Logan is purportedly the final Wolverine movie, and I’ll only go into as much detail as the Red Band Trailer 2 shows below, as it’s often difficult to know what you can and can’t say about an X-Men film, without giving spoilers. There’s a lot more to discover throughout the long but necessary 137 minutes, […]

X-Men: Apocalypse begins back in Ancient Egypt, around 3600 BCE (Before Common Era – I had to look that up. I presume it means, before Lonnie Rashid Lynn Jr, aka the rapper known as Common, became a star, but I’d need to check) By a non-coincidence, this is also when the first mutant, En Sabah […]

Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice is more like Batman WITH Superman feat. Wonder Woman: Dawn of Mercy Graves… Well, those are the elements I can remember best. The film quickly deals with Batman’s origins, and thankfully quickly, given that Man of Steel took the best part of an hour to do that, and we […]

Batman V Superman: Dawn of Disappointment… I mean, Dawn of Justice. Or maybe I was right first time. (Please note I will try and keep this as spoiler free as possible, I may mention one or two scenes that spoil a little but not enough to spoil the movie, I will point these out in […]
