You Can't Handle The Truth

FAST AND FURIOUS IS BACK, THIS TIME WITH ROMAN NUMERALS. What can I say about the tenth instalment though, it's more of exactly what we're used to by now, it's daft, dumb, defies the laws of God and Gravity throughout and ends on a monumental blockbuster that only Vin Diesel thinks must've been a great idea. Yet there's something so incredible about this film and it is the very definition of cinematic entertainment. I had a BLAST with it, and it may even be the most fun I've had at the cinema in years. So check out Fast X and you'll actually have an incredible time.

Disney's live action reimagining of the 1989 beloved classic is in cinemas now, with Halle Bailey taking on the role of Ariel. It's...fine. Perfectly watchable and harmless, but not as enticing or imaginative as the animated version, opting for more photorealistic animals as opposed to exaggerative and exciting portrayals of Flounder and Sebastian to name a couple. Halle shines, the directing is decent, it's just lacking a spark and ends up looking like a cgi blur under water for the most part. It'll be successful though so check it out if you're a fan of Disney's cash grabbing ways with their remakes.

DC's latest film hits theaters in a few weeks and the amount of praise it has been receiving over recent months is something of a mystery to me. Is it REALLY going to be that good?? Well after seeing the trailer at the cinema...they might be right. Anyway I'm excited and this episode should hopefully get you excited too, so enjoy and let me know how you're feeling about what is being described as one of the best comic book movies EVER.

Rian Johnson's bold new TV series is finally available in the UK (on Sky) and it's a must see for fans of classic detective shows. Think of it like an updated Columbo, a new cast every week bar the lead, in this case Natasha Lyonne, who must solve a series of crimes as she travels across the western States of America on the run. There's plenty of twists, turns, laughs, excitement and emotion to be found with this show and while it may take a few episodes to adjust to the narrative formula, you're rewarded extremely well throughout the first season. Available on Peacock oversees and Sky in the UK, enjoy!

The finale in Marvel's trilogy of Guardians films, sees James Gunn return to the directors chair in what may possibly be the thematically darkest film the studio has signed off on. For me, I didn't dig it. It's graphic in its depiction of animal cruelty and testing, making it a brutally harrowing watch and I honestly wouldn't recommend any younger child watching this, even if they're a fan of the previous two entries. Some of the film works, a lot of it doesn't but as a final farewell it packs a lot of emotion and heart into the two and a half hour runtime. In cinemas now.
