The Marvels (2023) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): A little too late for the ladies
Probably around “Avengers: Endgame” (2019), Marvel Comics Universe (MCU) passed its peak period mainly due to giving us so many similar products for more than 10 years. After the immense success of “Black Panther” (2018), the franchise belatedly started to … Continue reading
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023) ☆☆☆1/2(3.5/4): Expanded with more style and substance
Animation film “Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse”, the sequel to its Oscar-winning predecessor “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse”, is a busily rich experience I am willing to revisit for more fun and appreciation. Yes, as many of you already know, this is … Continue reading
The Flash (2023) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): Flashy but superficial
“The Flash”, the latest product from DC Extended Universe (DCEU), turns out to be saddled with several other problems besides its very problematic lead actor, who has been quite notorious for what he allegedly committed outside the screen. Even if … Continue reading
Shazam! Fury of the Gods (2023) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): Another forgettable superhero flick
One of my friends once told me that he comes to care about superhero flicks far less than before, and I came to feel more like him while watching “Shazam! Fury of the Gods”. Although I was not terribly bored … Continue reading
Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (2023) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): A colorful but passable teaser
“Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania” is a colorful but passable teaser for whatever we will get from Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) during next several years – and I do not have much expectation on that, by the way. While there … Continue reading
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (2022) ☆☆☆ (3/4): The ladies carry on
We can only imagine what would follow “Black Panther” (2018) if Chadwick Boseman had not died so early, but I am happy to report that its sequel “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” is much more than a mere next chapter. Although … Continue reading
DC League of Super-Pets (2022) ☆☆☆(3/4): Superman’s best friend – and his animal friends
Animation feature film “DC League of Super-Pets” is a delightful product which brings some lightweight spirit to its local genre territory. Unlike many of recent products from the DC Extended Universe (DCEU), the film simply tries to have lots of … Continue reading
Thor: Love and Thunder (2022) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): Man, Woman, and Metal
“Thor: Love and Thunder”, the latest offering from the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), does not surprise or impress me enough. While there are a number of inspired comic moments, the movie still feels like a passable mixed bag on the … Continue reading
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): In the Multiverse of Blandness
“Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness” does not bore or entertain me much as another mundane Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) product. Sure, there are occasional moments of interest, but the movie is also limited by not only numerous previous … Continue reading
The Batman (2022) ☆☆☆(3/4): A very noirish Batman movie
“The Batman” is palpably drenched in sheer darkness and grittiness from the beginning to the end, and I admire and appreciate that even though I have some reservation on its relentlessly grim style and rather sprawling narrative. I am not … Continue reading
