Spider-Man: Far From Home - Movie Review

End of Phase 3

Spider-Man: Far From Home is the end of the MCU phase 3 movies. With the last few movies from Marvel being almost as dark as the DC movies (to steal a quote from Deadpool), this was the perfect movie to end phase 3 and start phase 4 based on the final end credit scene. I was surprised by the movie coming out on a Tuesday. I was even more surprised that AMC kept their $5 ticket price for stubs members making this the perfect night to see the movie where I live.

Review

Since the last few MCU movies were full of tragedies, I thoroughly enjoyed this much needed light hearted movie where we can enjoy the character developments and much needed humor. I say humor with confidence as the entire theater were laughing through most of the movie. The scene with Hulk throwing Loki around Stark Tower in Avengers was the last time I had heard this much laughter from a theater crowd.

I loved story as well. I was impressed how they tied the story into several other movies in the MCU. There were a few surprises that I was not expecting especially at the end of the movie. If you look on IMDB, you may find one of the surprises in the casting list. I definitely recommend seeing this movie in the theater and I am truly looking forward to adding this one to my digital movie collection.

Rating

I would rate this as a least a HD movie. It will be worth picking up under $20 in UHD or $15 in HD. I was able to get the UHD for $20 from Microsoft using my rewards.

Avengers: Endgame - Review

Movie Review - Spoiler Free I will try to keep this a spoiler free review. First, I would like to applaud Disney/Marvel for making a movie over the 2 hour limit that most movies have kept themselves to lately. The movie would have felt rushed if it was only 2 hours. The movie starts out appropriately timed to the events of Avengers: Infinity War. The movie kept you emotional invested throughout the entire movie. There was some predictability with the story but for the most part, I was able to enjoy the ride without knowing what would happen next. This to me made the movie extremely enjoyable. We get see how the characters deal with the aftermath of the Infinity War and what their options are moving forward. Each character was given their opportunity on screen during the movie. This is obviously easier to do since there are fewer characters after the events of Infinity War. I felt that many characters had an appropriate conclusion to their stories. The movie did leave me with a couple ...

Glass - Movie Review

History M. Night Shyamalan has made many movies that provide plot twists that are unusual. Unbreakable and Split are two such examples that surprisingly become part of the same universe. Unbreakable was released in 2000 by Walt Disney Studios. Split was released in 2017 by Universal Pictures. Glass is the third movie in the trilogy distributed jointly by Universal and Disney. M. Night Shyamalan’s movies were pretty reliable in the 1990s and early 2000s with movies like The Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, Signs, and The Village. The Last Airbender in 2010 was horrible. With a rich story from the animated series Avatar: The Last Airbender, M. Night managed to destroy over 8 hours of great story telling by condensing it into a 103 minute movie. Not to mention how the characters names were mispronounce throughout the film. I could spend an entire post on how that movie destroyed a live action series. My children convinced me to purchase Split. I admit at the time of this post, I have yet to...

Once Upon A Deadpool Review

Movie Ratings The current PG13 rating allows the use a limited number of profanity words during the film otherwise the film will get an R rating.  Deadpool and Deadpool 2 were both rated R mostly for the profanity used throughout the movie in place of actual dialogue. I was not a big fan of these movies coming in at an R rating as it would reopen the door for other superhero movies to go for an R rating. My personal opinion was that profanity in a superhero movie would be overused like 3D because studios believed it was the key for the movie's success at the box office. It was not. The character was. In my opinion, I believe Logan was properly done as an R movie as it did not over use profanity in the movie. Many might believe that the Deadpool movies were the first R rated superhero movies. They were not.  All three Blade movies that came out in 1998, 2002, and 2004 respectively were the first R rated superhero movies. I believe these movies were also properly done lik...
