Tease Me Simply Pleasure

Deadpool 2 starring Ryan Reynolds, Josh Brolin, Morena Baccarin, Julian Dennison, Zazie Beetz, TJ Miller, Brianna Hilderbrand, Jack Kesy, Terry Crews amongst a star studded cast. The menu screen had a montage with Aha - Take On Me playing. It is in a vhs format. Plenty of violence, humour and pop culture references. The fourth wall breaking anti-hero is back. He is joined by his X-force. Old characters and new are included. It was an amusing film. The opening credits were like a James Bond film. The post credits scenes are good. Wade has been searching for a villain. He makes his way through the henchmen and the boss swears his revenge. Meanwhile you have a teenage mutant named Firefist. He is in an orphanage where they do experiments. He has caused mayhem already. You have Cable. Part man part machine. A guy you don't want to mess with. He is from the future and looking for someone. Domino is hot as are Nagasake Teenage Warhead and Vanessa. Expect cameos. Nice soundtrack. Deadpool really has his work cut out. They have upped the ante. Ryan Reynolds also works behind the scenes as he did with the first film. Venom is out in cinemas next month. New Mutants, Dark Phoenix, Captain Marvel, Avengers 4 are yet to be released. There are extras on this DVD. There are surprising scenes. Dupinder should have been used a lot more. Is he just some comedic Asian stereotype for everyone to laugh at? It's not Van Wilder again. Cert 15. Hugh Jackman quote on the cover. I will look at discussions and reactions.

The Lost World (Jurassic Park 2) starring Jeff Goldblum, Julianne Moore, Vanessa Lee  hester, Richard Attenborough, Vince Vaughan, Pete Postlethwaite. I watched Fallen Kingdom a few weeks ago. We see Dr Ian Malcolm. Nice transition from the scene of the British family on the island to Malcolm at the subway. There is a second island. An expedition team has been sent there to observe the dinosaurs. Sarah a paleontologist and Ian's girlfriend. Ian makes his way to the island. With him is his daughter. Was she from an interracial marriage or adopted? This day and age there will be people triggered by this. Cert PG. Directed by Steven Spielberg. Plenty of bonus features. Good humour and action. Great actors and special effects. At the time of writing I will be selling this DVD on EBay.
Subtitles are automatically on. A team of hunters has been sent by Ingen. If you haven't seen this film then do. Share this blog with as many people as you can.

 The Predator
Written and directed by Shane Black who starred in the first film. This is essentially a reboot paying tribute to previous films. It opens up with two Predator ships in a cat and mouse chase. The first ship managed to escape and is transported to Earth. It crashes in the states. Meanwhile a soldier named McKenny (Boyd Holbrook) is on a mission. He'd got his hands on the alien tech and had it posted home. The army are after him and the Predator. The creatures are more brutal. The violence is graphic. You actually get to see them use their teeth. An actor that played a scientist is Jake Busey. His father was in Predator 2. Olivia Munn is hot as is Yvonne Strahovski. The young son with Autism is played by Jacob Tremblay. A great young actor. He accidentally sets off a beacon within the armour which leads to the second ship coming to Earth. There is plenty of humour in this film. I enjoyed it. I ignored the reviews. Keegan Michael Key plays the comedic guy Coyle. Similar to Rick Hawkins. There are a mixed bunch of characters. There has been controversy over casting of a sex offender. Stirling K Brown plays Traeger. He is like Carl Weathers character. Has an annoying laugh. Sometimes the Predators don't need to kill as the humans do a good job of it themselves. I don't know if there will be a sequel. You do have another type of Predator like in the third film. The film reveals more of the back story of the creatures. Why they visit various planets. I recommend that you go see it. It isn't dark like Alien Vs Predator Requiem. I watched this at Cineworld. Seat G11. I suggest you sit in that area for the best view. It was quite empty in the theatre. Some girl was talking. I helped a guy out when he wanted to book tickets. Also on my way to the cinema. An Eastern European man wanted to get back to Leicester. He had worked a shift in Loughborough and so I directed him to the bus stop. It had been expensive for him. A long journey too. That's the thing with agencies. Full cast.

Lucy Hale. An attractive cast. Nice opening scene. A group of friends are on a Spring Break vacation in Mexico. They meet a stranger named Carter. A curse is loose. The participants must play a game of truth or dare in order to stay alive. Creepy supernatural horror. Weird smiles on people. Hallucinations. A demon possibly seen in Insidious or Sinister. Looks familiar. See the discussion afterwards. Olivia is the protagonist. Great effects and acting. Lucas, Penelope, Raymond, Markie, Brad amongst others. Some idiots were commenting about the ending on the trailer. Which kind of spoils it. Interesting music.
