Give up DC
16 June 2023
Warning: Spoilers
No thought has gone into creating back stories or stories that work together.

The future is bleak with another Aquaman and a new poor Batman arriving soon.

This could have been an amazing movie but poor CGI, no real emotion, the tv show was better.

Worst Batman, Wonder Woman turning up, it was like Fast X and that post credit had no story.

They also just ruined everything Michael Keaton did.

DC are clueless.

They have some of the best characters and have made a mess

Let's hope the new Superman starts something new and brings back the emotion of Christopher Reeves.

Start again and do some character development. Invest in some decent writers.

Marcel must be in hysterics.

As superman's symbol means hope. Please bring us some.

Nailed it
24 May 2022
How do you make an iconic film from the 80's 37 years later.

Here how, the first 5 minutes were goose pimples and set you up for an exhilarating next few hours.

Having been one of the lucky ones who attended one of the premiere's, I am excited to see what the rest of the world think.

I have booked the whole family in to see it again this weekend to share the love.

Enjoy everyone, amazing director, music and feeling...

Sadly Disappointing
5 March 2022
Batman is one of my favourite superhero's. After Nolan's trilogy masterpiece I was apprehensive about this new one. Patterson did a decent job, but the plot was poor, Andy Serkis under-utilised. No real emotion and Batman only had a grappler. He couldn't really get around quickly. More realistic ? Maybe but Kick-ass was just as powerful. Love the director from planet of the apes, but wow so disappointed, I hope they don't make a sequel.

Finally it's Here !

Warning: Spoilers
What a film, the rumours have been rife for so long. How did they manage to keep this quiet.

To put this film together is the work of pure genius. Marvel spare no expense for their superhero fans.

I do miss Maguire and Garfield. They both did an amazing job as Spider-Man and this was an amazing tribute for old and new fans.

Tom Holland did his best performance to date.

One of the very best superhero films.

Thank you marvel 😀😀

Very Disappointing
28 November 2021
Looking forward to this film, took my family and teenage kids. Felt very embarrassed as they all asked me what rubbish have I brought them to see.

Nostalgia is great seeing the old cast, but it was just so wishy washy. Kids taking on the biggest baddest ghosts. We got away with this in the 80's, but now you need a script and depth of characters.

Some things need to be left in the past, unfortunately.

Not All That Glitters Is Golf
22 November 2021
Great piece of true crime and history of the Chippendales.

It Goes to show that not everything that glitters is gold.

From the humble beginnings in LA, to the big Apple and the global expansion across the world, including the UK, so seedy it even had Blackpool in the storyline.

Yes that was Blackpool Tower and not the Eiffel Tower.

Well recommended and great piece of nostalgia.

Prime needs better shows to rival Netflix. So many shows are poorly made and presented. This could have been as big as Tiger King is marketed in the right manner.

One of the best 80's movies. I do hope they do a re-make one day. Everything is so serious nowadays, so put your feet up and just accept it :) . The music is also great.

Soooo Bad
21 May 2021
Zak Snyder needs to retire. He makes the longest movies, but never has any character development and you feel cheated at the end. Think I'm done forever with his films. So poor.

Educational
17 January 2021
A horrible sick twisted individual and he is not alone. There are people out there today with just as bad a warped mind. I will use this documentary to educate my teenage children to make them more aware. My daughter has a tendency to leave the house door open and my son for 13 is a very young and oblivious to what is out there. It only takes a split second to let your guard down against this type of individual. So rather than say what a good or bad documentary. I will use it to let them know about the darkness inside some people.

Absolute Class
2 January 2021
This has brought me so much enjoyment and what makes it better is my 13 years old son loves it. We binge watched season 3 in a day together. This is groundbreaking for something that wasn't the biggest hit in the time to get even better over time. It is very nostalgic yet relevant. Bring on season 4 and maybe the bad Sensei in Karate kid 3.

Shockingly Bad
25 December 2020
The script writer, producers, director, actors need to look in the mirror and say what have we just done. It is an insult to a new born baby the storyline. I wish the character rewind could give me the last few hours of my life back.

I could have made the cgi in my garden shed with some scraps.

If I can do anything good in my life it would be to not waste anybody's else's time.

John Favreau Has The Force
19 December 2020
It has been over 40 years since Star Wars created a phenomenon in the world.

After the initial trilogy it has been a real hit and Miss and Lucas's magic seemed lost on poor scripts and cartoons.

John Favreau's vision of George Lucas's origin story has finally hit the spot.

The whole two seasons have been a joy to watch with great nostalgia, some fantastic characters and actors and the finale was just sensational. I have watched the last ten minutes now over 20 times.

A big round of applause for all the staff involved. The mantle of future Star Wars spin offs needs these people. I love the different directors that were involved.

Don't leave us waiting too long now as life is too short...
