  • Superman Returns

    Superman Returns 2006

    ★★★ Rewatched 04 Jan 2025

    Underneath most of this movies big and heavy mechanical safety and mild-manners, this type of Superman does have some heart and some muscle, clearly. You'll come to like having it around, IMO even if you thought you'd already moved on from a franchise.

    Ultimately for me Superman Returns really feels really over the top eager to please, and it frequently succeeds mostly, but despite its best and most valiant intentions, it seldom really soars to the height of 1978's Superman: The Movie, for me?

    This is a tale with the power to disturb you big time.

    Civil War, where to begin?
    First off, quick PSA, you must see this in IMAX to get the full earth shattering effect…

    Once you fully understand that Civil War isn’t really about what you think at all really , you can seriously  begin to massively appreciate it for what it actually is: a intense and forcefully searing meditation on what happens when US political orders fully collapse and violence really takes on a  larger than life sinister logic of its…

    ★★★★ Watched 26 Apr 2024 14

    WOW, should it work?
    Um in all honesty, probably not. Does it? Abso-flippin-looootlie!
    How do I describe this movie? It has a Hong Kong action meets Cartoon Network vibe if that makes any sense whatsoever

    Ok so picture this, if you could for a hot second...have you ever wished that The Hunger Games was a lot more like the classic Arnold Swartznenger movie The Running Man, and that in turn was a lot more like The Raid, and then try…
