Alita Battle Angel

Directed by James Cameron. A SciFi action film. Rose Salazar, Christoph Waltz, Jennifer Connelly, Mahershala Ali. Cert 12. If you like Blade Runner, RoboCop, Terminator, Humans, Elysium, The Mortal Engines, Hunger Games, Divergent then you should see this. Spectacular effects. Many will fall in love with Alita. Those eyes are beautiful. A local doctor has been looking for spare parts. He often helps amputees with modifications. He stumbles upon a female body. He begins to fix her. She is trying to figure out who she is and the what city is like. Set in the 26th century. There was a major battle and much of the Earth has changed. A city floats in the sky. A sporting competition is held. Good cast of actors. Nice soundtrack. A strong female character. I am sure that I saw a reference to Terminator in one scene. Great fight scenes. I like how Alita is around certain people. There are bonus features.







Cold Pursuit

Thriller starring Liam Neeson. It does contain dark humour. If you like The Equalizer, John Wick, Fargo, Very Bad Things, Seven Psychopaths, Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction then this is for you. Stand out performances from Neeson and Tom Bateman. A young man named Dante had got involved with some very bad people. Nels Coxman's son Kyle is murdered. Nels wants revenge. These police officers are about. A Native American gang have crossed paths with Viking and his men. His ex-wife is hot. The music is interesting. Also the way a character's death is acknowledged. Around the time of the press interviews Neeson made some controversial comments. Laura Dern, Tom Jackson also star. There are Extras. I enjoyed Unknown, Non Stop, The Commuter and so thought of watching this film.




 Aquaman

Directed by James Wan. Who has done a fair few horror films. Jason Mamoa is Arthur Curry. Amber Heard reprises her role as Mera. Patrick Wilson stars as one of the villains. He was in a few Blumhouse films as well as Watchmen. Nicole Kidman plays Arthur's mum. She was in Batman Forever. Willem Dafoe had also been in Spider-Man. The scientist featured on a TV show, the actor that plays him was in the Ant-Man films. Great how they tell the story. A lonely lightkeeper and Atlantian meet. Good fight scenes and visual effects. The current king wants to wage war on the surface dwellers. Aquaman has been asked to stop him. There are a group of pirates. The Black Manta is a member. He is after Arthur. The soundtrack is varied. Atlantis like the Amazonians and Wakandans live independently. Learning of the types of kingdoms there are. Atlantis is technologically advanced.
