 My Review:
Having seen Marvel bring out another movie to the MCU I just needed to see this film and got around to seeing it at the weekend. Although hearing a lot of mixed reactions I did like this film wasn't really impressed with it either.

The movie is about how Scott is under house arrest and has a dream about Hope's mother and them trying to bring her back from the quantum realm however there is a woman called Eva who is able to phase and want's the power that Hope's mother would have in order to get her life back to normal.

I thought that this film was humorous and it did make me laugh and I though that seeing how Hope and Scott still have feelings for each other was rather cute. I liked how the police kept trying to catch Scott away from his home as he is under house arrest however to no avail. With the acting still being good throughout I did find that this did make me enjoy the movie. I also thought that as they were looking for Hope's mother this was a good edition to the movie and I hope that in the future they use more of her character as she was able to be saved and did have powers which did come from the quantum realm. Alongside this having Hank made his lab small and using small cars as well as being able to make a small home was a great way of being able to take their work everywhere and make it harder for the villain to be able to get their hands on their work.

I did find however, that I was confused why Ava's character was in this movie as she did not really add much to the movie in terms of being a villain also the plot didn't really seem to go into depth making the audience question why this film was really made as it had no effect on anything else going on in the MCU or much on the film overall.

Overall, I liked this movie but thought that it needed more depth into it and a better understanding to the movie. I would recommend this movie to those who like the MCU and are wanting more of a comedic superhero movie. I would also recommend this movie to those who are wanting something really easy to follow.

My Rating: 4/5

Power About:  After inventing a drug that induces time-compressed virtual realities, young Ren grapples with partner Sam over how to use their powerful creation. Trailer:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qav2Z0TgYMA My Review: Seeing a film on Netflix that didn't sound familiar but was also sci-fi I had to give Otherlife a watch and this did surprise me however didn't leave me as satisfied as I hoped that it would. Otherlife is about a drug which creates a virtual reality however seems to be like real memories and a days worth of memories can be done very quickly. While trying to get funding Ren by accident ends up killing someone due to a glitch in the programme. As a result of this she gets put in an isolation in her own mind for a year due to the government wanting to use it on prisoners which is only an hour in the real world. ...

Trailer:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQE7NGkJZHs My Review: Letting my mum choose the movie for tonight she chose the film The Beyond which made me go into the film blind knowing nothing more than it was a sci-fi movie. I am glad I did go into this blind however as I am not sure I would have seen it otherwise. The Beyond is about a black hole which appears just outside of Earth and how astronauts are going to try and find out what is on the other side and what would happen if this did happen in the next y...

Trailer:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3XN2X72jrFk My Review: With this experiment interesting me more than any other I have heard of I found out that there was a new film based off of the experiment and could not help but to see it and how this film would tackle this experiment. The film is about The Stanford Prison Experiment where students were put into two groups one of guards and the other of prisoners and how they changed as people and how physiologically both groups of people changed. Although the experiment was meant to end after two weeks it ended after six days and this film shows what happened with...
