Suicide Squad



BBFC rating 15
Released August 2016
Directed by David Ayer
Being the third film to enter into the D.C. extended universe, and its fair to say a risky take. They've taken a concept that we haven't really seen before in a super hero movie, as well as a lot of characters people haven't heard of, and put them really early in a collection of high grossing films. It has paid off in a way that they have become much more than they were before this film but in another way though, it hasn't. I feel like after Batman v Superman, they needed to come back with a film that met people's expectations, and it hasn't. It was not as good as was hoped for, but by no means am I saying that it was a bad film, its just that the film has lacked something, and because if that it lust the film in another light than it should have been. It is an entertaining movie however, fulfilling that demand for action that most fans were looking for, as well as keeping it with a bit of humour. My main point from this film is that it should have been a lot better than it was.
Contains violence and bad language.
My rating 7.2/10

Top Gun: Maverick

Image
 Released: May 27th 2022 Directed By: Joseph Kosinski Cast: Tom Cruise, Miles Teller, Jennifer Connelly, Jon Hamm, Charles Parnell Legacy movies seem to be all the rage these days (Past massive cinematic universes that is). Some of pulled it off really well, with films like Blade Runner 2049 almost being better than the original, some not so well like independence day resurgence, some being a bit of fun to pass off as alright with Jurassic World, and some being The Force Awakens. How these movies do well is another story, now though the latest movie to try its hand at a legacy reboot is Top Gun. No matter what you think of the original it is fair to say that the cultural impact and quotability is much greater than any plot point in the originals story, with not much to go on past some manliness and jet fighters. Top Gun 2 however is a completely different story. From the get go you know the stakes are higher and actually manages to make the "fish out of water" old guard trope...

Deadpool 2

Image
Released 16th May 2018 BBFC rating 15 Directed by David Leitch Cast: Ryan Reynolds, Josh Brolin, Morena Baccarin, Julian Dennison, Zazie Beetz After the overwhelming success of the first Deadpool film, the second instalment was inevitable, with the same formula that made the first one great. The film revolves around Wade Wilson, AKA Deadpool ( Reynolds ) attempting to save Firefist ( Dennison ) from time travelling assassin Cable ( Brolin ). While using similar ideas and call-backs to the first film, this one feels completely different, and in some senses more like Deadpool than before, filled with more references and nit pics to Dc than before, and arguably better action. The film also remembers to not take itself too seriously like the other one did, with more events in the film which try and mess with the timeline as much as possible without caring about the outcome. Overall the film does well to be entertaining, maybe more so than the last one, keeping good action flowing thr...
