Movie ****+ Avengers – Infinity War (2018)

rmann May 2, 2018 May 27, 2018Movie and Book Reviews 0

One of the better Marvel releases, nearly up to the level of Doctor Strange and the first Guardians of the Galaxy. Finally, Thanos has a character (not a very nice one, but at least not a cutout villain).

Movie ***** Black Panther (2018)

Wonderful origin movie for the Black Panther character where the fictional country of Wakonda is fully realized. Chadwick Boseman was terrific in the lead role.

Movie *** Justice League (2017)

rmann December 4, 2017 May 27, 2018Movie and Book Reviews 0

Batman, Wonder Woman, and friends face off against Steppenwolf parademons to protect three Mother Boxes that can destroy everything. This movie suffers from the tortured plot and many characters needing their scene.

Movie **** Thor – Ragnarok (2018)

rmann November 3, 2017 May 27, 2018Movie and Book Reviews 0

Fun with franchise characters, notably the Hulk and Thor.

Movie **** Spider-Man Homecoming (2017)

Fun Tony Stark interaction trumps thwarting the Vulture.

Movie ****+ Wonder Woman (2017)

rmann July 16, 2017 March 27, 2019Movie and Book Reviews 0

Excellent origin story that’s more fun than the Nazi antagonist plot. Would have liked more of Diana’s amazement at life off her island of Amazons.

Movie ***+ Power Rangers (2017)

rmann April 1, 2017 March 27, 2019Movie and Book Reviews 0

Power Rangers (2017) After successfully introducing the main characters and giving them their powers, their characters are lost inside the machines they do battle in, becoming another episode of Transformers.

Movie – **** Logan (2017)

rmann March 15, 2017 March 24, 2017Movie and Book Reviews 0

Inventive story of the troubled elderly Logan and the remnant of the mutants, but treaded too close to a John Woo film substituting knife slashes and their resultant carnage for the typical cascade of bullets and blasted bodies.

Emerald City cosplay at its finest!

Movie – ****+ Dr. Strange (2016)

rmann December 4, 2016 December 8, 2016Movie and Book Reviews 0

Finally, a superhero movie that gets the right balance between story and outrageous special effects. I thoroughly enjoyed Benedict Cumberbatch and Rachel McAdams in the title roles, as well as Tilda and the rest of the secondary characters.
