Great Story Great Effects - You don't need to be a movie critic to enjoy this one! "Wonderful" was invented for this Movie. Simply "The Sixth Element" I have to write more cos the review section requires 5 lines at least. Cara can really sing and she is so hot, if not a bit skinny. I think that's almost 5 lines

Luke Cage
(2016–2018)
The Magic Bullett
20 July 2017
Warning: Spoilers
SPOILERS OK so maybe not the best of the Defenders related series but reasonable popcorn eating fare. But then the Acid Bath Scene with the Mad Scientist had me wondering if the writers had just given up.
To be clear: Cage has been shot twice by exploding JUDAS bullets. Once in the left side gut & then in the right side shoulder.
Claire couldn't remove the fragments, which were moving deeper towards his "organs", cos his skin to too tough.
So off they go to find Seagate's ex Mad Scientist to see if could help. Using the convenient Ultrasound gadget Claire is able to remove 3 fragments from Cage's shoulder wound, which has softened thanks to the Acid bath & some MSG. Job Done? Cage emerges directly from the tank. But wait what about the 1st gut shot? Maybe the acid ate that one? A Magic Bullett?
That was pretty poor and sadly the remainder of the series just went down hill from there. In the final wash Mad Scientist is now miraculously treating Stryker under police guard. The only thing Missing was Prince singing Acid Rain Purple Rain.

Sword in the Stone? Pull the other one!

Arthurian Legends have been rehashed for over 800 years. Originating with French & German Holy Grail related tales they became Classics.
I'm always keen to see new interpretations of the Tale.
Having watched this latest offering I can only put the high rating from many folk on this site down to them being paid placements by Producer PR machines.
In a word this was pathetic. The acting was more ordinary than a Sci Fi Channel Sharkanado spin-off.
The CGI made the 1960's BBC Dr Who series seem like Kubrick.
As King Crimson once sang - "Confusion will be my Epitaph" Guy Ritchie clearly set out to confuse any plot or character development with video disco editing.
He actually made the Clash of the Titans remake look good!
After LOTR any Movie that uses Mammoth Elephants in the opening scenes should be a Dumbo Alert. No originality, given that Star Wars based their Mech Warrior Machines last century on Giant Elephants. So no kudos to Peter Jackson LOTR - cos they weren't in the book either. Ritchie is off to a cheap CGI Start. Gondor never looked so Londinium like! Pathetic rip off not even an homage!
Then we have the weird proposition - that Mordred is the evil Wizard and Vortigern is the brother of Uther. OK - it's fantasy but when I read reviewers who say this is the definitive Arthur tale I cringe. Don't worry about FAKE NEWS - we are abused by Ritchie with FAKE FANTASY HISTORY. The Arthurian Legend revolves around Arthur's fatal flaw - Not Lancelot and Gwen but that he had sex with his sister Morgan Le Faye and fathered Mordred! Sir Thomas Malory would be rolling in his grave!
In essence, the entire Arthurian Legend is about deception and to that extent I give Guy Ritchie a 1 for deceiving his viewers with a poor story that doesn't deserve a sequel and by the box office $$$ won't get one!
