Batman Forever

Val Kilmer, Chris O'Donnell, Jim Carrey, Tommy Lee Jones, Nicole Kidman, Drew Barrymore, Michael Gough, Pat Hingle.

Directed by Joel Schumacher, produced by Tim Burton. The third film. Comical and action packed. Different to the previous films. Batman now has to face Harvey Dent aka Two-Face and Edward Nigma aka The Riddler. I didn't think much to Dr. Chase Meridian. Colourful cinematography and costumes. Bruce Wayne has taken in Dick Grayson after a tragedy. The actors get to camp it up. You will like the soundtrack. Seal-Kiss From A Rose is a great song. There is a new CW series to be made called Batwoman.

Batman And Robin starring George Clooney, Chris O'Donnell, Michael Gough, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Uma Thurman, Donald Glover, Elle MacPherson, Alicia Silverstone. Directed by Joel Schumacher. Some inspiration from the TV series. Comical superhero film. There would not be another Batman film until Batman Begins. People did moan that it killed the franchise. Some parts the actors would dub over as it happens in film making. Starts of with the caped crusaders going on a mission. Nice theatrical scene. The ice skating henchmen playing hockey. Mr. Freeze is there to steel a diamond. Bane is created from a super soldier serum. A local scientist that is an environmentalist is transformed during an accident into Poison Ivy. Uma looks good here. Good references. Using special effects. Some jokes. The dialogue could work in the classic Bond films. This DVD is two discs. The second has special features. The Batmobile has been given a makeover. Alfred is dying. His niece has come to visit. Batgirl joins the team. It is a great cast. Tom Hardy's portrayal of Bane is better. I am selling this DVD on eBay.
Nice soundtrack.

I have a particular set of skills

The Commuter starring Liam Neeson, Vera Farmiga. I like the theme music played on the dvd menu. I saw a trailer for Yardie which is produced by Idris Elba and Shane Meadows I believe. Also You Were Never Really Here which stars Joaquin Phoenix. I am going to rent that. He will be playing The Joker in an origin story. Anyhow back to the film.

Interesting how the film was edited. Showing the various days that Michael travels to and from work. Some familiar faces. Sam Neill plays a Captain of the police force, Patrick Wilson is a cop and best friend of Michael. Shoutout to the extras and minor characters. Michael is an insurance seller that has been made redundant. You might like Falling Down. He meets a mysterious woman named Joanna that asks him to take part in an experiment. Action thriller. I had watched Non Stop and this is in a similar vein. Farmiga and Wilson starred together in The Conjuring. I knew that something was up as soon as he bumped into a guy. Colin McFarlane was in Batman Begins. Letitia Wright also stars. More cast members. You may have seen Source Code, Die Hard With A Vengeance, Phonebooth, Money Monster, The Cold Light Of Day, the Saw films. Expect plot twists. Worth taking a look at this film. "What kind of person are you?" Cert 15. Studiocanal 2018. Bonus features: making of and interview.

The Shape Of Water

   A romantic comedy drama directed by Guillermo Del Toro. Set in 1962. Sally Hawkins plays a mute cleaner named Elisa. She works in a government lab. Zelda is her friend and colleague. They are cleaners. Richard Jenkins is her gay neighborhour. There is prejudice which was around at that time. Michael Shannon is an agent that bought in this merman. His wife has nice boobs as does Eliza. There is nudity. Opposites attract. I wondered how things would work. This film had won an Oscar. The soundtrack might be to your taste. Michael Stuhlbarg plays a scientist and Doug Jones as the merman. You may have seen Del Toro's other films. They are unique. You might like Wes Anderson, M Knight Shyamalan. Cert 15. The DVD which I borrowed from the library was skipping in one scene. I will look at trivia, discussions and reactions. I recommend that you take a look. Great cast, dialogue and special effects. Not sure why Eliza masturbates in the bath and the Agent washes his hands before using the urinal but not after. See the ads that I have placed. Be sure to link my blog everywhere.

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.

I am watching an old film called The Wolfman. I couldn't find any mention of it on this blog. Well it is a Gothic horror starring Benicio Del Toro, Anthony Hopkins, Emily Blunt, Hugo Weaving, Art Malik. Lawrence is a theatre actor. His sister in law has come for help as her husband is missing. Lawrence visits his estranged father. An inspector from Scotland Yard is here to investigate the brutal killings done the werewolf. Set in the English countryside. Some scenes in London. Good effects, acting, dialogue and music. Worth taking a look. Cert 15. Contains gore and violence. Expect scares and surprises.

Galaxy Quest a SciFi comedy. It does parody Star Trek. A crew of a cult TV show reunite for a convention. A group of real life aliens have come to seek their help. Tim Allen, Sigourney Weaver, Alan Rickman, Sam Rockwell, Justin Long, Rainn Wilson. Released in 1999. You will recognise some actors. Good effects. I had seen it before this blog came into fruition. Alien, Toy Story, Cowboys And Aliens. You might like Spaceballs. Cast list. Some touching moments. Plenty of action. Bonus material is included.

Pitch Perfect 3

The Bella's have graduated from college. It is the third and final movie. Musical comedy cert 12. Universal Pictures 2017. Bonus features are included. Cast include Anna Kendrick, Rebel Wilson, Brittany Snow, Anna Camp, Hana Mae Lee, Alexis Knapp, John Michael Higgins and Elizabeth Banks. There is a competition for which the Bellas reunite for. As expected there will be interesting performances and songs you may want to buy. Some good dialogue. Strange characters. Great cast of actors. It was an explosive beginning. The girls have their own lives. Talented singers. Can be cheesy as with the scene at the army base. Some attractive ladies notably Emily, Stacey and Chloe. The two competition hosts from previous films are filming a documentary. You may have seen Grease, Glee, Sing, High School Musical. See Amazon and Cduniverse for deals. The actor playing Theo was in Hollyoaks. You have Lilly still whispering. John Lithgow with that Australian accent might be a talking point. Most of the songs that they cover I don't like. I don't get the hype about DJ Khalid. The actor playing Chicago is in the TV show Timeless. Fat Amy steals the show.
