Zack Snyder's Justice League

2021

★★★★★ 2

" For once I'm operating strictly on faith, not on reason"

People that know me, understand how important this film's release meant to me. The Magnum Opus that is Zack's Snyder's Justice League was a campaign and movement fuelled by fans to restore the artistic integrity of the third part in the DC SnyderVerse.

Let me make this clear, this movie isn't a redo, this movie is the original cut and whatever Frankenstein film came out in 2017 was not…

Sound of Metal

2019

★★★★½ Watched

Sound of Metal is a story of Ruben portrayed by Riz Ahmed, a man that loses his hearing due to excessive sounds from playing the drums.

The film highlights individuals who suffer from hearing loss whilst steering away from romanticizing a disability for the sake of making a movie.

Mission: Impossible II

2000

★★ Rewatched

There's so many instances in this film that you truly wonder, what was John Woo thinking ? Mission Impossible 2 lowers the standard from the first film to the point of having a comically laughable villain and a love interest that has absolutely zero chemistry with Tom Cruise.

Ethan Hunt returns without a haircut and whilst it's all guns blazing with Cruise performing more stunts than the previous film. There's just not a story that's strong enough to keep in…

A Quiet Place Part II

2020

★★★★½ 4

"There are people out there. People worth saving"

A Quiet Place 2, arguably creates a great template for a sequel film whilst still managing to honour it's beginnings. The story explores the themes that monsters aren't the only things that lurk in the shadows.

I'd regard this film as one of the more anticipated pre-pandemic films and the delay certainly paid off. The movie starts off with a mixture of flashbacks, I liked that we get to see the initial…
