Spider-Man: No Way Home - Movie Review

 

Impressive Box Office

Spider-Man: No Way Home appears to be making more in its opening weekend than Venom: Let There Be Carnage did gross. I am not surprised based on all the rumors about who may appear and what will happen in the story. If you are looking for confirmation to any rumors, I am going to try not to give anything away. I will only say there are two post credit scenes that setup two different movies. So, stay all the way until the end of the credits.

Review

Oh I wish I did not promise not to give anything away. This movie is so full of surprises that you just have to watch it. I would recommend watching both Hawkeye and What If...? on Disney+. I could recommend other things to watch but that would give too much away. I keep wanting to say more but will just leave it at that.

The movie is almost two and a half hours long. I doubt they could have shortened the movie without loosing a lot. The movie was nearly a constant non-stop pace. I will say almost the entire theater shouted more than once during the movie. If you have been waiting to see this movie, wait no more. One of the few movies I will say needs to be seen sooner rather than later. Too many will spoil all the fun. I expect this movie to bring the box office records back from pre pandemic as so many will want to see this and you won't be able to stream on Disney+ or HBOMax from the comfort of your home.

Rating

Based on watching and not the hype, I am giving this move an UHD rating. This movie will definitely being going in to my collection. New digital movies are starting to come out now at a reasonable $20 vs the $30 model we saw in 2020 and most of 2021. If you wait like I do, it will initially go on sale for $13 (which is the price point I have been getting many Marvel/Disney movies for) or wait a little longer for it to go on sale for $10. I will update when this is added to my collection.

The Flash - Movie Review

 Surprise Ticket I recently purchased The Doom That Came To Gotham and Justice League x RWBY animated movies that were on sale at Vudu this week.  I received a bonus of $8 off to go see The Flash movie from each movie.  So both my brother and I utilized the discounts for a rare trip to the movies.  Of the two animated movies I purchased, I highly recommend the Justice League x RWBY crossover movie even though it is Part 1 and Part 2 does not currently have a release date yet. Review While The Flash movie was decent, positive reviewers of the movie have obviously not seen The Flash TV series that just completed its run on The CW network.  The story in the movie and the special effects were much better in the TV series than in this movie.  Obviously, TV series has a longer time to tell a story.  Some of the movie’s special effects looked like they were from a couple of decades ago.  While this was only mildly distracting from the movie, it is defini...

Disney+ On Disc

  Change Is Coming Recently Disney+ has been cancelling content like the Willow series among other content on their service. This has given me pause as to what will happen to this content if you want to watch it. Series like the Mandalorian and the final season of Clone Wars were on available through the streaming service. The new idea that this content might eventually be removed from the service to never be seen again was a real possibility. Now we have some hope. I recently received an emailed from Marvel Entertainment. Generally, I would take a quick look and discard it but this one I had to look into more. The link pointed towards Best Buy or Walmart to preorder but I did find Loki Season 1 and WandaVision Season 1 available on Amazon. My hopes started to get raised. So with some quick searches, I did find in fact the Mandalorian Season 1 and 2 will be released on disc later this year. Here are the release dates per the email and what I found at the retailers. Loki - September...

Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes - Movie Review

  New vs Old The original 1968 started a series of five movies the last being Battle for the Planet of the Apes . The current series started with the 2011 Rise of the Planet of the Apes  with Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes  the fourth in the series. While similar in concept, I do not anticipate Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes  to be the last in this new series. The original series focused on what I consider the human’s side of the story. The current series focuses on the ape’s side of the story. Based on the ending, I suspect there will be another movie to come. Review You care for the characters and the story moves at a good pace. You hardly notice it is nearly a 2.5 hour movie. You can watch the movie for simply the entertainment or you can find a message about coexisting. There are several surprises in the movie which is something I look forward to since I have seen way too many movies. I appreciate the cinematography in this film as way too many movies get t...
