Trailer:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9Mv98Gr5pY My Review: Having wanted to see Venom in the cinema however not having got around to it and having owned the movie since it was released physically however not feeling like watching this for a while. This movie grabbed my attention again and I couldn't wait to watch it and cast my own views on a movie which I heard no negative feedback upon. Personally, I really enjoyed how the film showed how after the Venom was discovered how scientists experimented on it to see how it took over bodies for hosts and why they did this. Not only this but even taking it into animals before human testing, this was something in which ...

Trailer:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUkn-enk2RU 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.

Deadpool), brings together a team of fellow mutant rogues to protect a young boy of supernatural abilities from the brutal, time-traveling mutant, Cable Trailer:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D86RtevtfrA My Review: With Deadpool 2 coming out last night I couldn't resist going to see one of the first screenings of the movie. After having been excited about this film coming out for the past year. When Wade Wilson's girlfriend dies he realises that he is meant to look after a child who has been abused at a children's home. However when a man called Cable comes after the child it makes Wade start to team up with other mutants to try and save the child.

Captain America: Civil War (film review)

Film: Captain America: Civil War Year: 2016 Genre: Action, Adventure, Sci-fi Starring: Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Robert Downey Jr. About:  Political involvement in the Avengers' activities causes a rift between Captain America and Iron Man. Trailer:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKrVegVI0Us My Review: Wanting to watch a Marvel movie I couldn't resist but decide to watch Captain America: Civil War which I have not seen since it was in the cinema back in 2016. This is my views on the movie. The film is about when the government want to own the Avengers, Captain America and some of the other Avengers refuse to do so. However, when at a United Nations meeting there is an explosion and Bucky Barnes is accused of causing it Captain America and his friends will do anything to stop Iron Man. This film is action from the very start and this makes me really like the film and be drawn into it almost instantly. Not only this but by causing a drift between two of th...

My Review: Having been waiting over a year for the new Avengers: Infinity War movie and seeing that they were doing a midnight release for the film I couldn't resist getting my ticket and seeing it the moment that it came out. Avengers: Infinity War is about Thanos and how he is trying to get all of the infinity stones so that he can get rid of half of the universe's population. As a result of this we see all of the Avengers and some other Marvel characters come together to try and protect the universe from Thanos. Having went into this film already excited I was not at all disappointed as the film completely exceed...

Jordan, Lupita Nyong'o About:  T'Challa, the King of Wakanda, rises to the throne in the isolated, technologically advanced African nation, but his claim is challenged by a vengeful outsider who was a childhood victim of T'Challa's father's mistake My Review:  As a lover of Marvel comics and superhero films this really excited me having Black Panther finally as a hero which will be recognised by everyone as one of their own and joining the Avengers. With a lot of hype about this film as well I wanted to see if it lived up to it and why this was being called the first of it's kind for a black superhero movie when there is previous black hero's. As this film follows T'Challa gets to become king of Wakanda you see the struggle in which he is having letting go of his father and not really understanding how to run his country. As well as this yo...
