SuperHeroReviews

Ragnarok is a neon-infused fantasy of what superhero films could look like. There are gigantic monsters and beautiful women; zombie armies and a big spooky dog; an evil witch and Jeff Goldblum, but this isn't just a wacky movie made for the sake of wackiness. Ragnarok is the child of confident filmmaking and understanding of what the Thor franchise could have always been.

It takes a character that could have always been more and makes good on that promise through competent storytelling and unbridled enthusiasm for the world. This is exactly how we should be rewarded for their fandom. There has never been a clearer example of throwing the entire kitchen sink at a single title and having every single washer and lug-nut of that porcelain mechanism land in perfect order than Ragnarok.

The most important movie in the DCEU? Yes. The best movie? NO! I dare to say that "Justice League" is a total mess. "BvS" was not a good movie, but this one is even worse. Yes, I'm not kidding, there was not a single moment in the movie, that I care about something or I was under pressure about what's happening.

Batman was worse portrayed off than "BvS", all he did was showing his new outfits, gadgets and make his traditional jumps. After Steppenwolf and Flash he got probably the dumbest replicas in the movie. Wonder Woman played the role of a leader more than Batman, but she did nothing special at all. I do not think there is a need to say that the movie is a full of slow-motion moments, and right at the beginning, it has an unrealistic stupid scene. Surprisingly, Cyborg was the best-represented character...before they started working together, when he also faded against the backdrop of what's going on. Some people will say that Flash is "very good and fun", it was very flat for me. Whatever you tell me Flash has never been so stupid in the comics, Bart Allen yes, but Barry Allen never. Aquaman shine with nothing except his badass vision. I was hoping for him to do something memorable, but the only thing we saw were slow motion scenes, watching him how wet and strong it's...the best we got was the quote from the trailer "I can dig it" and then, when he's sitting on the Batmobile and says something relatively good.

The villain? Yeah, that's the worst villain I have ever seen in a movie, even Tommy Lee Jones as Two-Faced from "Batman Forever" was a better one. Completely CGI villain with a banal motivation to conquer the world. The only thing Steppenwolf wins in my eyes is that he is the winner of the prize - "Author of the dumbest speeches in the movie". "MOTHER"...sounds stupid, it was finally clear that Overpowered Superman should intervene to defeat the "big" villain. Plus the parademons do not die, they still exist, and the whole film does nothing about them in the end.

Superman? Perhaps you all wonder how he's back in the movie...honestly, all the theories that were written were light years better than what actually happened. Superman was revived by one of the Mother Boxes (yeah sounds lame) and confronted the whole league and he beat the league for 3 minutes..all of them. Of course Batman got a "trap" that he could not resist - Lois Lane, after which everything was in order. Ooh...I would have forgotten that the movie started with Superman and his mustache and an attempt to get rid of it through CGI, but as you guess, when I say it to you, it is evident, It can't be unseen, following a time in which it's again visible is his resurrection, simply can not be omitted.

Is there a Green Lantern? Yes, but it's just a few seconds and is not one of the main ones, it's just a flashback from the past war with Steppenwolf, to show you that we'll see a new member of the league in the future. In the whole movie, it was not explained to anyone exactly what the three mother boxes can do, and why the benefit is so valuable, but everyone can steal them...The story was dumb, the league was gathered in a very controversial way. Humor was forced, if I laughed at something in the whole movie, it was 1 or 2 times maximum, everything else was a tragedy.

The movie is full of CGI and all the time you can not explain what is happening just as you can not explain why the "big threat" in the movie and its lair gathers the mothers boxes in an abandoned place in Russia, where lives only one family that will then be rescued by Flash...by pushing a car.

The movie has two post-credit scenes, the first one is fun and the second is something that DC needs to build in its Cinematic Universe in the future, but I do not see how it will happen if they continue to make such weak movies. I'm not a hater, but DC have some of the most famous heroes and even more famous villains, but this is insult to the fans. There are scenes in the movie, that have no explanation, yeah I understand that these are fictional characters, and in the comicbook world everything is possible, but Flash falls while running fast and Batman catches him...this is just one of many examples, for which I do not think to write.

I can say a lot more, but honestly it is not worth it. I can't appreciate the movie higher than 5.5 or 6/10.

"The Last Jedi" fits into the well-established atmosphere of the new trilogy, but at the same time it is different. Rian Johnson's revenue is clearly visible. Unlike "The Force Awakens", where it was set to be more secure, here the director allowed himself to insert entirely new things that make up the big universe of Star Wars.

The movie is noticeably darker, as was clear from the release of the first poster, the trailer and the ad campaign.

Some fans will be happy because of 2 particular scenes, they've been waiting for years become a reality in this movie. Others will not like it so much, because there are some really unnecessary scenes, also this is not the typical "Star Wars" movie.

The "Last Jedi" answers some questions, but there are many unknowns, that we'll not know until 2019.

"The Last Jedi" is good as one-off fantasy movie, but it is controversial, as a part of the Skywalker saga.

Black Panther, directed by Ryan Coogler, tells the story of the new King T'Challa of Wakanda who must learn to handle the responsibilities of this title. Chadwick Boseman reprises his role as the Black Panther and goes up against his nemesis Killmonger, played by Michael B. Jordan.

Pros: Coogler has already proven himself to be an excellent director after movies like Fruitvale Station and Creed (both starring Jordan), but he showcases his full talents in Black Panther when given a huge budget to work with. The movie looks beautiful with bright lush colors. The soundtrack and musical score are also very good. At its heart, the movie's message is very profound and relevant to real world politics.

As expected, Boseman is awesome as T'Challa. His character goes through so much and his development throughout is handled perfectly. The best scenes of this movie are when he has to look within himself to find answers when the people he always trusted let him down. The cast in general has very good chemistry. T'Challa's relationship with his sister Shuri (Letiitia Wright) is very funny and it's easy to buy them as siblings. His relationship with his love Nakia (Lupita Nyong'o) is even better. It would be criminal not to mention Danai Gurira and what she gives this movie from an action standpoint. Michael B. Jordan as Erik Killmonger is without a doubt the best villain the MCU has presented so far. His motivations are so clear and his ideology directly challenges T'Challa's. He is physically and psychologically the perfect adversary for Black Panther.

Cons: The pacing of the movie is a bit odd. It moves pretty quickly until everything comes to a head at the very end. More time should have been spent in between to flesh out the side characters and let the emotions sink in. In addition, the action scenes are not among Marvel's best. The last battle between Panther and Killmonger in particular is pretty disappointing in all honesty. The CGI felt unfinished and they could have been cut together better.

Overall, Black Panther is a triumph for the MCU and its societal connotations. This is, in my opinion, the best origin movie that Marvel has made because of its amazing hero, great cast of role characters, and truly menacing villain.

Infinity War is remembered mostly for how it ends, with good reason. But for me, the entire movie is incredible. Action, humour, cinematography, heartbreak, etc. It was a culmination of 10 years of character development.

The benefit of that hard work? The movie can start with incredible action and never let up. Most wouldn't agree because of the ending, but I feel it's the best movie of the MCU (so far). Endgame was awesome, infinity war was better. I think the best part of it was the fact that we had so many cool character meet ups that as fans we never thought we'd see. Thor with the guardians? Wow. Star Lord and Iron Man? Rocket and the winter soldier? We could go on and on. They also mastered the art of humour to help offset some deep deep hurt throughout the story. Thor and Star Lords interactions are pure gold. Thor calling Rocket "rabbit" pure gold. Dr Strange and Tony going toe to toe is worth the price of admission as well. I'm going to stop now or I could type forever.

My only goal of writing this review is to help sway some others. Try to appreciate this movie for more than the gut wrenching ending. It's nonstop awesome from beginning to end. Enjoy!

Not as good as the first one, however it still has a large amount of good moments. A fun over the top superhero movie that's filled with pop culture references and self-referential humor. Very enjoyable especially the end credits scenes

I liked Solo.... much more than I anticipated I would. Like many people posting reviews, I am an old-school, die-hard fan of the original trilogy, and I am also a fan of the old "extended universe", much of which is now being overshadowed by the cash-grab that is this new Disney-driven galaxy.

However, I must say that the negativity this film has received is undeserved. The story is solid, if a bit predictable at times. The dialogue and acting are FAR better than in any of the other recent Star Wars films, except perhaps Rogue One. Notably in comparison to Last Jedi, the story has a logical flow, there are no side-stories that make no sense, nor any ham-handed attempts to milk humor out of an unrealistic scene. I can't say it enough, this movie actually makes sense and has a believable story.

If there is a problem, it is that Star Wars is becoming another Marvel Universe, where everything has already been done in one way or another. For non-star wars fans, this will be a perfectly serviceable action/sci-fi adventure, with characters whose struggles most people should recognize from other stories in these genres. I was pleasantly surprised at how some characters were killed- it actually made me worry that anyone could be in danger, even knowing that this was impossible. It was emotionally real.

For Star Wars fans, there are heaps of references to the extended universe. These were done in a way that made sense and gave service to old Star Wars stories. Teras Kasi, Aurra Sing, Chewy being ~200 years old, among others. There are glimpses at what the every day life of an average citizen in the empire would experience (spoiler: not nice). Han as a character is played true to form: a guy who has seen some bad things, done some bad things, but still, deep down, is good.

I liked it. Don't listen to the fanatical homers whose own self-absorption with Star Wars prevents them from enjoying anything that doesn't conform to their pre-determined view.

Yes, the movie responds to some questions, we asked during "Infinity War" and yes, for people who do not watch all the movies, only some selective...all of the movies in the MCU are connected and this one is no exception.

I will not get into the details for the movie, but it got everything you need to remember it. The story is fun, the action is great, also connections to other movies. All these, are just some of the incredible things in this movie!

Personally for me, Evangeline Lilly in the role of Hope Van Dyne (Wasp) stole the show, because she's incredible, Paul Rudd as Ant-Man evolves himself as a hero, but do not think that the curious moments are less! Actors in supporting roles only make the movie even better. Stellar ensemble, also the humor is spot on. Get ready for a lot of surprises!

If you think that watching "Ant-Man and the Wasp" after "Infinity War" is crazy, believe me, Marvel own us once again. Just the thought, that after such a big event in the MCU, we are watching a lighter film, but at the same time extremely important for the culmination of all the events of ten years of stories is mind-boggling!

In conclusion "Ant-Man and the Wasp" is another jewel in the MCU crown! The film is full of action, fun moments and character development. I will not disclose anything else, but stay to the very end of the movie...

One of the credit scenes is easily top notch!

This movie is kind of a mixed bag. There are certain elements of it that I think are creative, but by far it is definitely one of the lesser Marvel films. The only thing I disagree with Martin Scorsese about is that "Marvel movies are like theme park rides" because there are ones like Endgame, Thor Ragnarok, Civil War, The Avengers, Infinity War and many others that have a far deeper meaning and much more than just entertainment. Overall, Venom is one of those okay movies that doesn't deserve hate, the scenes where the Venom inside Tom Hardy's character is talking to him are pretty hilarious.

This movie is probably the best, that Sony ever offered us from the Spidey universe. Super fresh story, incredible animation style, characters that we'll hardly see on the big screen soon, plenty of fun moments and tons of comicbook references.

Absolute joy, especially if you're comicbook nerd. It has already been confirmed that there will be a sequel and honestly, I can not wait.

Go and see for yourself. One hundred percent you'll not be disappointed at the end...the very end.
