A great animated musical. I was wondering what they would be able to do since the last season did a good job wrapping up the story, but the movie went above and beyond my expectations. I loved it. Had some really funny and emotional moments. There was also a lot more songs that I was expecting. Some are likely to be stuck in my head for the next few days!
If you like animation and haven't seen the show yet, you are missing on something. It have great multi layered characters, good music, continuity... It won an Emmy on 2018. The soundtrack was also at the top of the itunes charts when it was released.
The movie does spoils some major arc of the show, so seeing the episodes before is recommended.
Hobbs & Shaw 7/10. Pretty much exactly what you expect, so if not a fan of the brainless F&F type films, then one to avoid. But if you are, then this spin off is enjoyable and I will happily watch more in the future. I enjoyed the banter between the leads (though there were a couple times it was a bit overlong) though I think my favorite banter was between Ryan Reynolds and Dwayne.
Watchmen 7.5/10
Best superhero film I have seen. Very dark, good dialogue, complex story and very gritty. No constant wisecracking from the characters either. Far better than all the generic marvel rubbish.
Wounds - a bad bar fight leads to a bartender finding a phone with disturbing images and then his world unravels into a WTF ending that makes you wonder if it was brilliant or utter guff. 5/10...would give it another mark just for Zazie Beetz, she's rather lovely in this.
