Avengers Assemble (2012) Review

Ben

Think of what you wanted from this film – picture it on-screen, actually happening! Now open your eyes and see it because everything I wanted this film to include and hoped to see actual actors perform on-screen is included! Everything! This review is going to be so positive that I don’t actually know where to begin! A couple of months ago I posted an article that compared the three big superhero films this year and weighed up their pros and cons. Avengers had me worried because it was a film that brought together superheros that struggled to tell their own … Continue reading Avengers Assemble (2012) Review

Batman versus Spiderman versus The Avengers!

Ben

This is going to be the greatest summer for blockbuster movies probably ever! That is because there are three films that will hopefully set a new standard in Superhero films. The actual superhero genre of films has been so watered down and overdone that it takes something special to actually register. This summer we should have three films that will hopefully register. Two of the films are the end of a long process and another is designed to be the beginning. Whether by design or coincidence, the studios behind these three films have decided to release them in the same … Continue reading Batman versus Spiderman versus The Avengers!

Ten films you should be excited about in 2012!

Ben

When I actually wrote down all the films I think will be “must see” for this year, I actually got a list of twenty-one!!! I decided the best thing to try to do would be to narrow it down to a good ten. The ten I’m most excited about seeing because of the hype around them, the trailers, the actual story within the film itself or the fact that the earlier films in the series have been good. So without further ado, we begin at number ten… 10 – The Pirates! In an adventure with Scientists. It was the trailer … Continue reading Ten films you should be excited about in 2012!

The Incredible Hulk (2008) Re-View

Ben

I’m now going to be a complete hypocrite because in my Green Hornet review I said that Marvel had ruined all superhero films. This isn’t actually true. They have watered down the whole genre meaning that you almost have to do something completely different with every single superhero film to stop yourself from making something generic and average. I thought Thor and Captain America were average. They portrayed their superhero’s brilliantly but I’d already seen that kind of superhero film with Iron Man and the Incredible Hulk. That meant that when I re-watched the Incredible Hulk, I thought it would fall into the average … Continue reading The Incredible Hulk (2008) Re-View

The Green Hornet (2011) Review

Ben

Marvel has destroyed all superhero films! There was a time when a superhero film was an event – the first Spiderman, any Superman film, any Batman film (until Batman and Robin) but now they are a predictable addition to every summer movies list it has destroyed the very genre itself and Marvel are to blame. The reason they are to blame is because they decided on the brilliant idea of creating a string of films that will culminate with this summers Avengers film. This meant that for the Avengers film to be a reality, they had to release at least … Continue reading The Green Hornet (2011) Review
