Test your might

I have just watched Mortal Kombat 2021
Based on best selling video-game which I used to play in the 90s. I watched the other films. The film is currently on Hbo Max. What I find daft is the restrictions. It costs something for a Vpn. You have the subscription fee. Whether the app is compatible and a Virtual Card which would cost you. It just isn't worth it going to all that hassle. I had found two websites where I watch it for free. https://gomovies.agency/mortal-kombat-1/
You will have pop up ads, the quality might not be good in some videos. Some weird text on the screen, buffering. It is violent like the game. Plus I was hoping that they would not have a tournament like in the old films. The protagonist is Cole, an MMA fighter with a destiny. Nice backstory for Sub Zero and Scorpion. I did feel that some characters were miscast. Take Lui Kang for example. His build or how he acted. The residents of Outworld have been winning so far. They are determined to conquer Earth. Raiden must get a bunch of warriors to stop them. You might like the soundtrack. Great actors.

Godzilla Vs Kong The film is currently £15.99 to rent on Amazon Prime. I try watching on the desktop screen but not getting the full picture. Can't find the film on the app. Some heirachy error code appears. I have to use the Vpn. That did not work anyhow I used the desktop view and got the full screen. I did see an Amazon review which was negative and gave some spoilers. King Kong is being held at a facility. You have returning characters. The scientists at Monarch want a better understanding of the Titans. Godzilla is on the rampage. There is another company that wants a power source from the Hollow Earth. Good special effects and fight scenes. I am interested in finding out how old that world is. Is it another planet all together? How did it come to be? I wasn't so much bothered about Maddie, her friend and the conspiracy theorist. The daughter of the Apex Ceo is hot. Mostly positive reviews. I will look at the reaction videos. Cast Alexander Skarsgård Nathan Lind Millie Bobby Brown Madison Russell Rebecca Hall Ilene Andrews Brian Tyree Henry Bernie Hayes Shun Oguri Ren Serizawa Eiza González Maya Simmons Julian Dennison Josh Valentine Lance Reddick Guillermin Kyle Chandler Mark Russell Demián Bichir Walter Simmons Kaylee Hottle Jia

I have started watching The Falcon And The Winter Soldier on Disneyplus. I like the theme song. It contains more action compared to WandaVision. I wasn't sure if I would take a look. Anthony Mackie and Sebastian Stan. Don Cheadle makes an appearance. As I understand it that Steve Rodgers has died. The government is working with the duo. Surprised that Sam and his sister are struggling financially. James is going to therapy sessions and wants to put things right. Three is a terrorist organisation with their own agenda. This is the song Zemo dances to in that club scene. The white supremacists will be triggered by this series.

I have just watched Justice League Snyder Cut. Available on Hbo Max and NowTv. It is very different to the version released in 2017. That one was directed by Joss Whedon. He made significant changes. A lot of footage on the cutting room floor. I liked the old version and this one. Many got screwed over especially Ray Fisher and Zack Snyder. The Cyborg and Flash got more airtime in this. The soundtrack has been redone. Not sure about the Wonder Woman theme in this version. The film is darker and more adult. You might the soundtrack. Worth checking out. Well taking place after Batman Vs Superman. Bruce Wayne wants to get a team together as the world is in danger. Steppenwolf is here to gather the Motherboxes for Darkseid. Some scenes that were in the 2017 version are featured here. They did cut other bits out. I noticed that the European family aren't in it. With all the allegations that came out about Whedon this is the final nail in the coffin. It is longer than Avengers Endgame. It is in parts too.

Actors: David Giuntoli, Russell Hornsby, Bitsie Tulloch Genres: Drama, Fantasy, Horror, Mystery Country: USA Release Year: 2011 Synopsis: A homicide detective discovers he is a descendant of hunters who fight supernatural forces. I have just started watching season 1 of Grimm. If you liked Constantine, Buffy, Angel, Bright, The X-Files, Supernatural then you should see this. A horror drama series. You have the protagonist that is a homicide detective. Interesting concept. Not sure how much was spent on special effects. Good cast of actors. You might like the music. The detective has a gift.

I have started watching Marvel Runaways on Disney+. A TV show mostly aimed at a team market. Has superheroes. An eclectic soundtrack. The songs keep playing every few minutes. There were a group of friends that used to hang out before tragedy struck. The parents all know each other. I will see how long I stick with this. There are secrets. The blonde one is attractive. In the scene where she is getting carried up the stairs at the party. You can see her ass. If you liked Stargirl, Smallville, New Mutants then this is worth a look.

Skylines Director: Liam O Donnell Actors: Lindsey Morgan, Rhona Mitra, James Cosmo, Alexander Siddig Genres: Action, Adventure, Sci-Fi Country: France Release Year: 2020 Duration: 110 min Synopsis: When a virus threatens to turn the now earth-dwelling friendly alien hybrids against humans, Captain Rose Corley must lead a team of elite mercenaries on a mission to the alien world in order to save what's left of humanity. This is the third and final film. I had watched Skyline and Beyond Skyline. This takes place 15 years after the invasion. Connecting all three films. Rose is now a grown woman. Her brother Trent is a Pilot. Those alien creatures with human brains. There is a virus turning the Pilots bad. In cliché fashion a team of mercenaries is created and they set off for the alien planet. This is an indie scifi so special effects on a budget. It is a decent trilogy. A diverse cast. I remember when Rhona Mitra was the live model for Lara Croft. The soundtrack will be available soon.
