Superman and Lois

After seeing some clips and I follow the CW DC universe. I have started watching Superman And Lois. On It is quite dark and emotional. Like with Nolan or Snyder films. It is post crisis Earth. Lois and Clark work at the Daily Planet. The two teenagers Jonathan and Jordan are off to college. I like how the characters are fleshed out. There will be people who can relate to Jordan. A great soundtrack. There is a new antagonist. I won't write about future episodes as it would contain spoilers. I am hoping that Stargirl makes a return. I last watched Justice League. Still tuning in for The Flash, Legends Of Tomorrow. I wasn't a fan of Tyler Hoechlin. But he will grow on you. It is like when there is a new Doctor or 007. You are used to older versions. WB are involved in the making of the this show. I am going to see some reaction channels. I enjoyed Bitsie Tulloch in Grimm.

The legendary film maker Richard Donner has passed away.

I have started watching Season 2 of Superman & Lois. Tyler Hoechlin, Elizabeth Tulloch, Jordan Elsass, Alex Garfin, Wole Parks. Natalie arrived on this Earth from a parallel universe just like her father John. Has a tough time adjusting. The boys are growing and have girlfriends. Lois is trying to do her job and also cope with having Natalie in her life. Clark trying to save the world one day at a time. As Superman went to rescue a North Korean submarine. Lieutenant Anderson is not pleased. He wants to know that Superman puts American first. He is putting a team together of gifted individuals. Meanwhile a villain for this season is emerging. It has been revealed in interviews who that is. Best just to not look into it. I did think that this season might not be as big as the first one. It is on the CW. Later on the BBC.

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.

Sing For Absolution

AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON
Cert 12, SciFi action, Just watched it with my brothers at the Odeon, Loughborough. Robert Downey Jr, Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo etc are back. James Spader was great as Ultron. A great look and dry sense of humour. Some comedy along way. Loud action scenes. The team have to get Loki's staff. Stark, Banner and Jarvis looked to use the power of the gem for a new machine that will protect the world. Elizabeth Olsen looked good. I noticed one citizen with her breasts almost falling out of her dress. There will be a further film. Superb special effects. The trailers before the film were interesting. New James Bond film Spectre. Terminator Genesis is what I intend to watch. Directed by Joss Whedon. Jon Favreau was a producer. Plenty of violence and some swearing. There were young kids in the audience. It was good to see Paul Bettany. The new Star Wars film is out now.


THE POSSESSION
Apparently based on a true story. You can find that story on series 1 of Paranormal Witness. Its from Sam Raimi. Who also made Evil Dead, Spiderman, Drag Me To Hell. You might like Insidious, Sinister. Crazy opening scene with the old lady. Dibbuk is part of Jewish folklore. The lead character played by some actor that looks familiar. He just picked up his daughter from his ex wife's house. There is an old film called Polterguist for you younger folk that weren't around then. If you like films with eerie children then this is for you. Also The Ring 2.The Omen, Orphan, Mirrors. Good effects. See the trailer. Haunting In Connecticut 2, Last Exorcism 2, Paranormal Activity 5 will be out this year. Rented this copy from the Library. Blockbuster don't even have it. The remake of Evil Dead will be in cinemas later this year. Mass infestation. Don't Be Afraid Of The Dark. This is an uncut edition. Cert 15. Distrubuted by Lionsgate. Pretty teens yet annoying.
The box is cursed. Great acting from the young girl Emily.
