Black Widow

I went to the cinema and it had been raining. I went to see Marvel's Black Widow. First of all Stephen Dorff is wrong. I did hope or think that it would take place even before Natasha ever came to work for Tony. Scarlet Johansson and Florence Pugh are hot. With this solo film it has it's own identity. If you like Bond, Bourne then this is a must see. Natasha is on the run. Following on from the events in Captain America Civil War. Rachel Weisz, David Harbour, Ray Winstone also star. You get the origin story in Ohio in the 90s. The family had to flee. With the opening credits you see what happens after. The main villain has super soldiers, assassins. He controls the Red Room. It is where Natasha and her sister were trained. The villain has the Taskmaster causing destruction. There is a chemical antidote that the soldiers are after. Lots of new characters are introduced. Plenty of action. Dry sense of humour. Soundtrack is something else. Pugh and Harbour do steal scenes that they're in. There is a post credit scene. I was unsure whether I would see this. But like with Wonder Woman and Captain Marvel I went to watch it and enjoyed the films. I do question the accents from certain actors. Ignore the right-wing reviews that trash a film just for clout. Great cast of actors. It was a great send off. I think this film works especially after Avengers Endgame. Scarlet's time with Marvel is up.

Constantine starring Keanu Reeves, Shia LeBeouf, Rachel Weisz, Tilda Swinton, Gavin Rossdale, Djimon Hounsou, Michelle Monaghan, Peter Stormare, Jesse Ramirez, Max Baker, Pruitt Taylor Vince. A supernatural horror based on the DC comic book. I enjoyed the film and the game. I have read one graphic novel. Yet to see the TV series. Lots of special features. The Spear Of Destiny has been found after so long. A detective has lost her sister. John is busy carrying out exorcisms. The demons are trying to break into the mortal plain. Surprises and scares are plenty. Good action and special effects. Worth taking a look. There is an excellent scene on an empty street just after the detective leaves John's apartment. One cringey moment "finger licking good". I blogged about this film before. With the game there are cheats. One activated, go crazy. If you like GTA then you'll like this. See the reviews.
