Well that’s the end of yet another Marvel’s series cancelled involving, well, everyone involved in The Defenders. I mean, I was so sure Daredevil was coming back having completed it so recently. The speculation is[…]

Marvel’s Daredevil, season 1-3
It was interesting watching Marvel’s Daredevil so soon after Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Both series are very different animals, even if they occupy the same Marvel-verse. They don’t overlap, so far as I can tell, and[…]
Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., season 2-5
It’s been a long while since I last watched Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., and damn if it doesn’t slam you straight into the thick of it. Truth be told I was wondering why I bothered[…]
Ant-Man (2015)
I admit, the main reason I wanted to watch Ant-Men wasn’t because of the whole Avengers arc. It was Paul Rudd, who is still fly and has managed to remain such a hottie ever since[…]
Deadpool 2 (2018)
You really can’t fault Deadpool 2 for taking the mickey out of movies while being wholeheartedly in it. And, well, he kinda gets his wish doesn’t he? Still pretty funny in that Deadpool kinda way.[…]
Ocean’s 8 (2018)
Finally got around to watching Ocean’s 8, and while it was still pretty cool and fun, I have to agree it’s not as sleek and had-me-by-the-edge-of-my-seat compared to its big brothers, Ocean’s Eleven, Twelve and[…]
Solo: a Star Wars Story (2018)
I watched Solo: a Star Wars Story in two parts – one on the MAS flight from London to Kuala Lumpur, where I missed watching the end by about 20 minutes. And I completed it[…]
PASKAL (2018)
So I admit to being hesitant about watching PASKAL. First, I’m not a fan of army themed movies. And second, it’s a local movie, which I tend to stay from due to the over and[…]
CHIPS (2017)
Fans of the original CHIPS tv series may very well find this movie remake absolutely blasphemous. Personally, I don’t remember it at all, even though I’m sure I’ve watched more than a few episodes growing[…]
MacGyver, season 1-2
I wasn’t entirely sure if I wanted to revisit the world of MacGyver with this remake. I mean, I grew up watching the original and it was one of my favourites. How are they going[…]
Mission: Impossible – Fallout (2018)
First up, can I just say that, overall, I prefered Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation better? However, the fairly extended climax of this movie was definitely by-the-edge-of-your-seat kind of awesome. And, well, Henry Cavill, even[…]
Hawaii Five-0, season 5-7
It’s good to be back in Hawaii! Even if it’s via a cop show remake featuring the same classic theme song – because, let’s face it, it would not be Hawaii Five-0 otherwise! I don’t[…]
Ready Player One (2018)
I get the feeling that Ready Player One will be one of those movies parents bring their kids to see, but will end up enjoying a whole lot more instead simply by virtue of having[…]
Grimm (ended 2017)
I don’t remember when I last watched Grimm and it is good to finally bring this series to a close. While I have generally enjoyed this series and the many story paths it has taken,[…]
Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi (2017)
What else can one say about Star Wars: The Last Jedi, that hasn’t already been said? Naysayers and enthusiasts abound, but I, personally, enjoyed it. I especially liked the scenes in the red room and[…]
Wonder Woman (2017)
Wonder Woman was cool, and so much better than the over abundance of superhero movies that have been coming out in recent years. There was just something about it – an innocence amidst all the[…]
Baywatch (2017)
Let’s face it, you don’t watch Baywatch expecting it to be brilliant. In fact, you don’t even watch it for the action-packed storyline. You watch Baywatch for the barely there swimsuits, boobs and hot bods.[…]
Pirates of the Caribbean: Revenge of Salazar (2017)
So it seems there are two titles for this movie – Pirates of the Carribean: Dead Men Tell No Tales and Revenge of Salazar. I don’t know whether it’s a regional distribution type thing or[…]
The Fate of the Furious (2017)
I’m not a follower of the Fast and the Furious franchise, but I have to say that eight movies is pretty impressive for a series mostly focused around cars, crashing cars, cars driven fast, etc, but[…]
The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet’s Nest by Stieg Larsson
Stieg Larsson’s Millennium Series comes to a close with The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet’s Nest. As with the other books in the series, it starts off with a lot of information until about 9/10ths[…]
DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, season 1
This year I’m also reviewing series I’ve watched but have not yet ended, starting with DC’s Legends of Tomorrow. This is largely because I move through series quite slowly, and since the list is always very[…]
