Favourite Films of 2019

That time again, where I look back over the previous twelve months and decide my top ten films of the year. So, here we go from 10 to 1. Zombieland: Double Tap This sequel, coming so long after the original movie was an odd proposition. As much I'd loved the first film did it need …

Film Review: Spider-man: Far From Home MILD SPOILERS

As the first MCU movie set in the post-Endgame world, this one is key with setting up how the universe will go from here, and it seems as though Marvel will be fine, as this is one of the best movies so far. A large part of this is that Tom Holland is the best …

Film Review: Avengers: Endgame (Spoiler Free)

This isn't a traditional review. I won't talk plot because to do so runs the risk of spoilers. And frankly, I've just come out and I'm still reeling. This movie is everything Marvel fans could have asked for. From the first scene to the last it didn't put a foot wrong. It takes time to …

Florida 2019: Universal Studios Top 5

A friend described Universal Studios as Walt Disney World's poor cousin and the park definitely falls a little flat having been to WDW. The problem is that Disney do their parks brilliantly, with a real attention to detail and finesse that unfortunately their neighbours can't quite match. That's not to say the place is terrible, …

Film Review: Captain Marvel

I've got to be honest, I've never been a huge fan of the character Carol Danvers. I don't dislike her, she's just always been one of the Marvel heroes who never really captured my imagination, so I didn't go into this movie as hyped as I was about seeing Thor, Spidey or Captain America on …

Favourite Films 2018

Thanks to WOM and I getting Limitless cards I've seen a lot more movies this year, the current total (on 21st of December) is 32. The majority have been at the cinema, but I've also watched a couple of Netflix and Sky movies, although none of these are troubling this list. Normally the end of …

Film Review: Venom

I didn't have high hopes going into this movie, despite being a fan of Tom Hardy and the Marvel character he was playing. The reasons for my doubts were that this movie had been mauled by the critics and the idea of making a film about Venom that is separate from Spider-Man doesn't make a …

Film Review: Ant-Man and the Wasp

One of the questions during Infinity War was where was Paul Rudd's Ant-Man? As one of only a handful of heroes not to appear, Marvel fans were left wondering where he and Hawkeye were when Thanos attacked. Luckily this film explains a lot of what Scott Lang was up to. Last seen locked up with …

First thoughts on Jigsaw pictures

I've not long finished watching the Netflix series The Punisher, which sees Jon Bernthal take up the role of Frank Castle, the one man army waging a quest for bloody justice. As a massive fan of the comic book character, particular Garth Ennis' fantastic work, I kinda enjoyed the show although I was glad that …

Film Review: Deadpool 2

The first Deadpool was a blast, a crude, rude romp of OTT violence, winks to camera and gags. Could they capture lightning in a bottle twice? I was hopeful, but apprehensive. Thankfully a few minutes in and the line "Hit it, Dolly!" settled my nerves. We were back and this was gonna be a whole …
