don't worry dude, it is worth the wait. The best thing you can do make sure you have already got your return visit booked because you are going to want to see it again.

Booked in to see it Sunday morning which is the first time I can...

Staying off social media until then - too many people out there that take delight in spoiling stuff.

Endgame - 8.5/10 (no spoilers).

Too many plot holes and parts that were just a bit too stupid. Saw it on Imax 3D which was excellent but even though the CGI was excellent the CGI often made the characters look weird and miniaturized which spoiled it a bit. Well worth watching but Infinity wars was better.

John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum: 8/10

These films just get better and better. Fantastic action scenes, new creative ways on how to kill and the world expands with many new characters and new locations. Really really enjoyable and they are obviously planning for a fourth.

If you enjoyed 1 and 2 this is a must see.

Aladdin (2019): 7/10

A lot better than I was expecting it to be in every regard. Story wise it is pretty much a complete copy of the screenplay of the animated version with a few minor additions, so you know what is coming every step of the way. The music and songs were excellent and they cast Aladdin and Jasmine perfectly, they literally couldn't have been any better. The only disappointment with the film was Will Smith; his singing was better than I was expecting however it still sounded flat in places and lacked the bravado of Robin Williams. It isn't about trying to copy Robin Williams, I think they just could have done better than Will Smith. He is Aladdin's genie to Beauty and the Beast's Belle. If it wasn't for him I would have given it 8/10.

This is a must see for any fan.

X-men: Dark Phoenix: 6/10

This is a hard one because despite many peoples feelings over previous x-men films including the original trilogy, I have loved all of them up and till now and thoroughly enjoyed them. This one felt like something was missing. I got the impression that they felt like it was the fourth film in the franchise so they didn't need to spend any time on the characters and just focus on the action and special effects. It left the film feeling very hollow.

X-Men Last Stand and Apocalypse were the ones I disliked the most.

However from seeing trailers this one's feels like s bad TV movie. Don't know what it is but just doesn't sit right.

**Damien** · 06-06-2019, 10:06

The reviews are absolutely slating it as well.

General Maximus · 07-06-2019, 00:26

It's a shame because as I have said many a time before with other bad films, I don't understand how with all the people involved somebody at the script read through stage doesn't say "this isn't good enough and we need to build the story more and do build on the characters". I know some directors like to story board everything first as well and that is another opportunity for it to come out. It just think it is a damn shame that an entire xmen film has been wasted. I need a job as a film purifier or something (and sometimes tv) so I can catch this stuff early on and get them to fix it.

Toy Story 4: 8/10

Fantastic animation as you would expect from Pixar and a lovely story. The one niggle I have with it is that it wasn't anywhere as humorous as the previous instalments in the franchise and I put it down to the fact that they have had to introduce some new characters and move away from the core group in order to do something new and different.

Brightburn: 4/10

Don't watch this unless you like your horror films. This is pure horror and only very loosely scifi/superman related. It suffers from a double whammy of weak story because it isn't an official DC film so they can't even start to give some depth to the Superman story arc and secondly as it is a pure horror it is all about the fear factor and nothing else. I spent the entire film waiting for the inevitable demise of the 6 or 7 people you are introduced to and wondering what colourful way they will be despatched. I shall finish as I started and say this isn't worth watching at all unless you are into your horror films.

Toy Story 4 - 9/10.

I thought it was great. I also thought it was pretty funny but it's been a while since I saw previous instalments so I don't know if it's as funny. The 'Plush Rush' stuff was amazing though.

Rocketman 8/10

I thought this was unexpectedly quite good. More cohesive than Bohemian Rhapsody and also with a better use of the music. I thought Taron Egerton was better as Elton John that Rami Malek was as Freddie Mercury, with the latter it always seemed like someone doing a good impression of Mercury but with Egerton I sort of forgot it's a performance.

Toy Story 4

I pretty much agree with this, except I give it 7/10.

Im off to see Dark Pheonix later today, so we'll see how that goes.
