A boring mess
12 May 2022
The movie is all over the place, CGI was there but nothing special. The plot was weak and the characters are shallow.

Wouldn't recommend paying for cinema screening.

Ant-Man (2015)
7/10
Amazing, Funny, 10/10
10 August 2015
Warning: Spoilers
Ant-Man is the greatest, funniest and one of the most visually amazing movies to date. Scott Lang is armed with the ability to shrink but increase in strength and speed. X cat burglar Scott must harness the power of his Ant-Man suit with the help of its creator Hank Pym. Hank founded a science company called Pym-Tech and he hired a long time ago a young genius named Daron Cross, Daron was obsessed with knowing Hank's secret to his Pym particle. He voted Hank out of his own company and began research and development for the Pym particle all over again as Hank wouldn't give Daron the formula. Hank used to save the world as Ant-Man and his wife suited up as the Wasp, the Wasp went subatomic to shrink through the particles to disarm a missile. Daron after killing a businessman and many animals Daron found the correct formula for the shrinking particles and built the perfect battle armour called the Yellow Jacket. His idea was to create an army that could win every fight and battle that America would face. Starring Paul Rudd as Ant Scott Lang, Michael Douglas as Hank Pym, Evangeline Lilly, and Corey Stoll as Daren Cross, Bobby Cannavale, Michael Pena and Anthony Mackie as Falcon. As usual there is an after credit scene in this movie, It starts with Hank and his daughter Hope are walking into their basement which is where Hank keeps all his research. Hank tells Hope that her mother and he were working on a new Wasp suit and then he says that he realises that he was working on it for Hope. Ant-Man actually has two after credit scenes. The next one is of Steve Rogers (Captain America) and Sam Wilson (Falcon) have captured The Winter Solider and Steve says "Don't tell Tony (Iron Man). This is a lead up to Marvel's next blockbuster 'Captain America Civil War"

Avengers Age of Ultron
10 August 2015
Marvel has made many great movies since 2008, and is continuing to make them for the foreseeable future. Marvel's past movies are The Hulk, Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, Iron Man 2, Thor, Captain America the First Avenger, The Avengers is the highest grossing comic book adapted movie ever, Iron Man 3, Thor The Dark World, Captain America The Winter Soldier, Guardians of the Galaxy, then the latest Avengers Age of Ultron. Avengers Age of Ultron has an all-star cast, Robert Downey JR. (Sherlock Holmes), Chris Evans, Scarlett Johannsson (Lucy), Mark Ruffalo (Now You See Me), Chris Hemsworth (Rush), Jeremy Renner (Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol, Rouge Nation, Bourne Legacy), Samuel L. Jackson, and James Spader (The Backlist) as the voice of Ultron. James Spader in my opinion has one of the best voices in the world. The length is over 2 hours, and consists of many action scenes. The opening scene is The Avengers taking down the last Hydra base after the events of Captain America the Winter Soldier. The camera angles are used magnificently to show all of the Avengers taking down the Hydra forces, then there is a shot of all the Avengers lined up as they jump across a ditch. Also as usual there is an after credit scene to leave spoilers for the future movies. This scene is of Thanos putting on the Infinity gauntlet with empty Infinity stone spots and he says "FINE I'LL DO IT MYSELF". He said that because all of the other people he hired to retrieve the Infinity stones have failed, such as Ronan from Guardians of the Galaxy, The leader of the Tutari Army from the Avengers and Malekieth the dark elf from Thor the Dark World.

Furious 7 (2015)
7/10
Fast and Furious 7 is the latest fast and furious movie
9 August 2015
The Fast and the Furious series consist of 7 movies soon to be 8, starring The Rock-Dwayne Johnson in the last 3 movies, Vin Diesel- The voice of Groot in Guardians of the Galaxy, and the late Paul Walker who has been in many action movies, along with Gal Gadot who is set to play Wonder Woman in the line of DC comics movies unfortunately Gal Gadot's character Chazelle died in Fast and Furious 6 , Michelle Rodriguez, Tyreese Gibson from Transformers, Ludicrous is a musician as well as an actor, Jordana Brewster and the antagonist is Deckard Shaw played by Jason Statham who has been in one million and one action movies. For those who have seen Fast and Furious 6 the perpetrator of those events is Owen Shaw played by Luke Evans who is in Immortals, The Hobbit the Desolation of Smaug, The Battle of the Armies, Deckard is Owen's older brother out for revenge, because Dominic Torreto's (Vin Diesel) team put Owen in the hospital. Fast and Furious 7 is packed full of action stunts that are bigger than the last movie, that take you to multiple countries all around the world, America, Abu Dhabi, Canada and multiple locations in USA. After Deckard Shaw is placed in solitary confinement in one of the most secure facilities, the team are on a beach with all their new cars lined up behind them, because of Paul Walker's death, the makers of the movie changed the ending. Dominic knows Brian O Conner (Paul Walker) doesn't belong with him anymore because he has a wife, one child and another on the way. Dominic drives off and leaves Brian behind, you see him in his car driving off into the distance when Brian now played by Paul's brother Cody Walker and some added effects, Brian says "You thought you could leave without saying goodbye". Dom smiles then they go their separate ways when the road forks. This ending wasn't just about Dom saying goodbye to Brian, it was about Vin saying goodbye to Paul, then the credits open with ' See you again' by Charlie Puth and Wiz Kalihifa, this song is a tribute to Paul Walker.

The Hobbit the Desolation of Smaug
16 June 2015
The Hobbit trilogy is a great movie trilogy the second one; The Desolation of Smaug is the best. An Unexpected Journey has an OK story the first 30 mins is uninteresting as the dwarfs come into Bilbo's house and eat all of his food. The Desolation of Smaug has many battle scenes. Smaug the dragon guards the hall that is full of gold and jewels, the dwarfs and Bilbo venture to the lonely mountain which is the dwarf's home, which Smaug took by force many years ago. In the final scene of the movie, the dwarfs let Smaug escape, he flies over to Lake Town which is the city that helped them reach the mountain. He states "My teeth are swords. My claws are spears. My wings are a HURRICANE! I am fire, I am death." And you see Smaug head for Lake Town prepared to burn it. Bilbo dramatically closes the movie with "What have we done." The end of the movie should have been when Bard (Luke Evans from Fast and Furious 6) shoots down the beast with a black arrow, but they keep that for the next movie.

Guardians of the Galaxy
3 June 2015
Guardians of the Galaxy has a great team up situation, Gamora is retrieving the orb from Star Lord, while Star Lord is trying to sell it, Rocket and Groot the humanoid tree are collecting a bounty put on Star Lord. Star Lord had a bounty on him because he return the orb that he retrieved to his master. Gamora plans to betray her master Ronan an outraged Kree warrior who works for Thanos who will eventually be the main villain throughout the new MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe). He is after all the infinity stones for those who have watched previous Marvel movies the ether contains an infinity stone, the Power stone. The Stone contained within the orb is the Space stone. The stone in Loki's Sceptre is the mind stone. The tesseract also has an infinity stone inside. Thanos needs to play a more important part or people will just lose interest because in all Marvel movie to date he sits in a floating chair, except in Avengers Age of Ultron he is wearing his Infinity gauntlet which will hold all the Infinity stones. The final battle has great visual effects. Ronan is attacking Xandar the main planet of the system they live in. The Xandarian army form a blockade with their ships, Ronan's Kree warship eventually destroyed the Xandarian defense force. Gamora, Star Lord, Rocket and Groot were sent to prison earlier in the story line and that were the met Drax a strong fighter who wants to kill Ronan. They come together to defeat Ronan in his plan to destroy pretty much everything, and form the Guardians of the Galaxy. Unfortunately Groot sacrifices himself to save the rest of them. As Groot is a tree Rocket collected his remains and planted them in a pot and he can grow back, which is great they can use that to and advantage because he can't die. Guardians of the Galaxy is a great movie, I prefer Avengers, and I can't wait to see the Guardians of the Galaxy and the Avengers team up to probably defeat Thanos.

Run All Night (2015)
6/10
Run all night-
17 May 2015
I like Liam Neeson, he's a great actor but this wasn't my favorite movie he was in. It was good movie overall, different story line to the most common ones which i like about that. Jimmy Conlon was abnormal at times. The assassin hired to kill jimmy and Michael was so cool. I love the chases in this movie.Ed Harris played an excellent character, but he turned to violent responses very quickly, and the made the movie shorter than i think it should have been. Jimmy's son hates his father for what i think are minor reasons. The end scene was tense, Michael didn't have any weapons and he was hiding behind a tree. The Jimmy did a cool trick shot with his shotgun while he had a broken arm.
