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.

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...
