Movies so far this year (as well as a few catch up films in January) I'm down on numbers for two reasons, poor films and often choosing sunshine and time out...
"Black Panther" great story and a revelation in the telling
"Red Sparrow" 2 hours I'll never get back
"Milly's Game" gripping story
"Tomb Raider" had a few good moments
"Pacific Rim Uprising"
All the talk was about it being different to the awful original, it was, it was worse...
Worse still it started Ok with a good premise and then just got worse and worse
"Paul, Apostle of Christ"
Arty retelling with a time period focus that for me needed a broader arc
"Ready Player One" not what I expected but enjoyable
"Midnight Oil 1984" Documentary, life story, brilliantly captured historic time
"Blockers" Train trip fodder
"Game Night" could have been a classic with some better casting but the idea was clever
"Avengers Infinity War"
Great way to escape for over 2 hours. Almost too many characters. Brilliantly crafted ending.
"Solo: A Star Wars Story"
I really liked this film and can't quite understand the negativity. A few weak moments.
"Ant Man and the Wasp"
Good fun, great chase scenes, clever premise not quite as good as it could have been. Stan Lee cameo a winner...
"Equalizer 2" Wow, no real surprises and a couple of clunky moments but good time out considering Denzel is hit and miss for me... he does tension well!!
Looking forward to being entertained by the new Mission Impossible and it's stunts... wonder where the next bio pic, history or drama will come from in a world of sequels and remakes? Better catch up on 'The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society."
