Nowhere Special (2020)
A hidden gem
Fantastic but heartbreaking story. Norton is excellent. Nice to see Northern Ireland on the big screen too. A movie that's full of heart.
Avengers: Endgame (2019)
Masterpiece
After all the hype I was convinced it couldn't top the last one. I was wrong.
Aside from personally not liking the direction they went with one character, I have literally 0 complaints. It's wonderful. Go see it.
Venom (2018)
Better than expected
Minor Spoilers
Still sitting in the theatre waiting on the second post credit scene. I came into this film with no expectations and whilst it certainly isn't perfect, it is a million miles from the mess the critics made it out to be.
The negatives first. I felt Venom's change of heart towards humanity was kinda rushed and thought his character suffered as a result. Also the rating thing possibly effected it as i thought there would be more action scenes.
Whats left of those however are the undoubted highlights. One in particular with some police was my favourite scene in the film. There's good chemistry between eddie and Venom and i dug Hardy's performance.
So in short, goof, not great but enjoyable and will watch again!
The Meg (2018)
Big, dumb and fun... until the end.
If you go to this movie expecting a masterpiece then you're bound to be disappointed. But it delivers on effects, a few spook moments and a half decent popcorn flick. The end left me really disappointed though... after lots of decent build up, the final act should have been a lot more memorable.
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)
Ultimate edition is the only edition.
I have never written a review on here before but after my third viewing of this i had to.
First, it is not perfect. The pacing is too slow for my liking, Lex Luthor is infuriating & this version of Doomsday was wasted.
However, there is a lot to like here. This is a visually stunning movie at times. I loved the armoured batsuit and the whole fight scene. Also, the warehouse scene is the best live action batman combat we've ever had.
Lex's plan gets a lot of hatred, but each time i watch this i notice something else about it. Its a great, Lex Luthor plan. It's just a shame the portrayl of Luthor overshadows it.
It's not the type of superhero movies people expected or maybe wantes, but that isn't what snyder set out to do. It's just sad that we'll never see all of what he had planned for the DCEU but hopefully with Aquaman and Shazam! Better things are coming.
Possibly not the movie we deserved, but a damn good one.
