Review By Me

MCU’s 23rd film, Spiderman: Far From Home is out, and just like its predecessors is raking in big at the box office, which is no surprise lol.. I’m always happy and excited when any MCU movie is getting released. As I’ve stated before the MCU is this amazing shared universe focusing on these series of superhero films, and not only are they great as solo films, but when you have the characters together in a film, and the films are connected in ways you can’t imagine, its amazing. I love being invested in these movies, it’s not a bad thing, I’m just passionate about these movies. Spiderman: Far From Home takes place after Avengers: Endgame, and I hope everyone has seen Endgame, because in this film, Peter is dealing with the death of Tony Stark (yes death) , and of course he misses him a lot. I loveee Tom Holland as Peter Parker; I think he does an awesome job at portraying this character, with his charm and youth. Some of our favorite characters return: MJ, Ned, Happy, and Aunt May. There’s also new faces (wink wink) lol. Spiderman: Homecoming is a good movie and was a great way to introduce Spiderman into the MCU. But Far From Home is pmy favorite of the two and is a great sequel.  I really enjoyed seeing Peter being with his friends on this fun, romantic adventure in Europe. As usual Peter tries to keep the balance of being Peter Parker and Spiderman a secret, which sometimes isn’t easy lol. The visual effects in this movie are amazing, you feel like the visuals are right there. I loved Far From Home, it made me laugh, and is a fun, action packed, and surprising ride. The cast is amazing and gave great performances, plus I love Zendaya as MJ, being her morbid self lol. And woah as usual stay after the film for the mid-credit and post credit scene, you don’t want to miss it. Spiderman: Far From Home is a satisfying conclusion to the Infinity Saga, and I loved it. Wow, It’s been a fun, emotional, and exciting ride on this 23 film journey, here’s to Phase 4 and the films to come. Hey, If you’ve seen Far From Home, let me know what you think below ! If you havent seen it, I recommend you to. Thanks for reading !

Avengers: Endgame (Movie Review)

Endgame 2

Release Date: April 26, 2019

Genre: Action & Adventure, Drama

Cast: Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett Johansson, Mark Ruffalo, Jeremy Renner

Summary (from Rotten Tomatoes):

The grave course of events set in motion by Thanos that wiped out half the universe and fractured the Avengers ranks compels the remaining Avengers to take one final stand in Marvel Studios’ grand conclusion to twenty-two films, “Avengers: Endgame.”

Review By Me

MCU’s 22nd film, Avengers: Endgame was released this past weekend and in less than a week, this film has made an estimated $1.2 billion at the worldwide box office for its opening and will continue to break records. At last Marvel fans, the most anticipated movie of the year is out, and is everything we could hope for. Just as Marvel fans and I have anticipated Infinity War, Endgame is no different. In Infinity War, the Avengers and their allies are trying to stop Thanos from collecting the Infinity Stones, which wasn’t successful; Thanos snapped away half the universe after getting the stones; In Endgame, the Avengers and their allies plan is to find Thanos, undo what he has done and defeat him….For me sitting in the movie theater waiting for the movie to start, had me feeling anxious, because you don’t know how the movie will come on; This movie had me on the edge of my seat — Not in a horror movie thriller type way, but in a way where you have this built up anticipation and you are excited yet anxious not knowing what will happen next. If you are Marvel fan, then you’ve become familiar with these characters, these heroes; they become apart of you, being emotionally invested in these movies and characters is an amazing thing. I also love that the cast has this great family bond on and off screen, which you can see throughout the movie; The acting is strong and every time you see them just reminds you why you fell in love with the characters, the actors, and the movies. Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, and Jeremy Renner, yes the original 6: The Avengers, gave some emotionally charged and funny performances; And with Endgame concluding the first three phases it’s no surprise. Plus what’s a MCU movie without a few funny scenes. MCU movies are also great on the action and special effects; I mean come on from Thanos himself to the great fight scenes, what’s not to enjoy watching. Avengers: Endgame is an epic, emotional, exciting and amazing experience. Over 10 years leading up to this, the fans got the movie we’ve been anticipating., including a few surprises (yes surprises). I cried several times during the film, I cheered, and laughed –This movie was definitely an emotional roller coaster. Endgame is a great conclusion to wrap up the first three phases of the MCU movies.. It does saddens me to see this concluding the first ten years of the MCU, but makes me happy and excited for the future movies that will be released. I loved Endgame, and it is one of my favorite movies in the MCU; So yes, three thousand times yes (did you catch the Endgame reference ? lol), I recommend you to see Avengers: Endgame — And if you are a Marvel fan, then I’m sure by now you’ve seen the movie, and if you have let me know what you think in the comments below; And if you haven’t seen it, then what are you waiting for lol ? As always thanks for reading !

Avengers: Endgame Buzz !

Avengers Endgame 2

In what is the MOST anticipated movie of the year, Avengers: Endgame will be hitting theaters Thursday, and worldwide on Friday. I am obsessed and in love with this franchise. The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is this amazing shared universe focusing on these series of superhero films; The films are great in their own right  and the fact that they are connected, which is done so brilliantly, makes me more excited to see them. 2008’s Iron Man kicked off Phase One of this amazing universe and eleven years later, just 3 months after Avengers: Endgame, Spiderman: Far From Home will be released in July, which will wrap up Phase Three. Endgame is the film that all Marvel fans have been waiting for since last year’s blockbuster hit Avengers: Infinity War. Ever since after seeing Infinity War ( which I’ve seen more than 15 times btw– yes this movie is amazing), I’ve been counting down and anxiously waiting for movie trailers and movie posters for Endgame, that’s how real it is. Thanos achieved his goal and “snapped” some of our favorite heroes away along with half of the universe, let’s just say that this was unexpected and pretty darn crazy for Marvel fans , I did not think that would’ve happened. The ending is pretty unbelievable, especially  to see our heroes crumbling into dust (wow). Ten years in the making we have Endgame, the perfect ending to round out the first ten years. From seeing the trailers and Infinity War, I know that this movie will be exciting, action-packed, emotional — so many words to describe the anticipation around this movie. I read reviews (of course they were non spoiler) where Avengers: Endgame was described as Fantastic, Epic, a Satisfying Conclusion, Monumental — which I believe are all true. For Marvel Fans, Endgame would be the crème de la crème, the cherry on top of this long awaited ice cream sundae. Its amazing, and exciting to be invested into these films; I cannot wait to see Endgame on Saturday and you can bet that I will see this movie more than a few times; And to the Marvel fans we’ve earned this moment; this movie was made for us, so let’s celebrate this movie experience together; There will be laughter, crying, and cheering when we see Endgame, which is why this will be monumental and this movie no doubt will be another blockbuster hit; And to the Russo brothers, the incredible cast (who I loveee) and crew, the fans and I thank you for making this epic conclusion; and to Stan Lee thank you for giving us great comic book characters to be adapted into these amazing films, may you Rest In Peace ! Thanks for reading !

Captain Marvel (Movie Review)

cm 11

Release Date: March 08, 2019

Genre: Action & Adventure

Cast: Brie Larson, Samuel L. Jackson, Ben Mendelsohn, Lashana Lynch, Jude Law

Summary (from Rotten Tomatoes):

The story follows Carol Danvers as she becomes one of the universe’s most powerful heroes when Earth is caught in the middle of a galactic war between two alien races. Set in the 1990s, Captain Marvel is an all-new adventure from a previously unseen period in the history of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Review By Me

Being one of the most anticipated movies of the year, MCU’s 21st film is out and is kicking butt at the box office. I was not familiar with this character until the mid-credit scene of last year’s Avengers: Infinity War. From that scene we can expect Captain Marvel to help the heroes of Infinity War defeat Thanos and hopefully restore earth’s population, so its only right we get a movie on her. Now let’s hop into my movie review on Captain Marvel. Of course this movie is suppose to take place in the 90s and with seeing an actual Blockbuster, references about 90s T.V. shows/movies, and the 90s music, the movie stayed true to that era. I also enjoyed the action scenes, especially those scenes that featured Captain Marvel fighting and using the energy blasts coming from her hands; I think she has some cool powers. Another thing I loved about the movie, was the relationship between Captain Marvel and Nick Fury, they’ve established a great dynamic relationship, which was nice to see develop. I also wanted to highlight the performances of Brie Larson, Samuel L. Jackson, Ben Mendelsohn, Jude Law, and Lashana Lynch; each gave great performances giving us memorable characters. I also enjoyed the visual effects; which did not look cheesy or bad, and the CGI was great; And lets not forget that the humor was well placed. I feel that every film in the MCU has some humor, which works. I honestly feel like the movie was well paced, some may argue that the beginning was slow and despite what you may have heard or read about this movie, I say that this film is a good addition to the MCU collection. Captain Marvel is a fun and exciting film that introduces us to this powerful heroine. I would definitely recommend this movie if you are a Marvel fan, and I say it is worth watching; I think Brie Larson is amazing as Captain Marvel and I think she did great in this movie; including the cast; So If you saw Captain Marvel, or plan on seeing it let me know what you think in the comments below !

Thanks for reading !
