HelBic 29th Mar 2021		Cinema Wonder Woman 1984 (2020) (2020)	Good review, and I may now just watch it. However, I have to say there's a YouTuber I follow whose reviews I always find not only vastly entertaining but informative and 'on point'. He tends to give his opinion and then pull apart the good and bad points of the film, including gaping plot holes if there are any (and he does point many out in this film which a London double decker bus could be driven through). So, for an alternative view, have a look. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PeieblTIw7A&t=41s
HelBic 12th Oct 2020		Cinema Thor: Ragnarok (2017) (2017)	Odd isn't it? I did enjoy this movie but also felt slightly let down by it. Why? Simply because as a kid, I bought every American superhero comic I could find. It was the early 60s and Marvel were really starting to take off and so I bought the very first Thor comic "Journey Into Mystery". The Thor character in the comics was very straight laced and dis speak as thoug out of Shakespeare, so I enjoyed the Thor movies and characterisation very much. This iteration see him transform almost into a 21st century character - for me the character arc and transition from Shakespearean hero into modern man was too quick. Pity as it really was a good movie, mind you ther transition into lazy fat slob in the last Avengers movie was a step too far for me.
HelBic 12th Oct 2020		Cinema Léon (The Professional / Léon: The Professional) (1994) (1994)	Great review @MagicMarmalade, I have the original DVD of the movie and have never seen the director's cut - and will definitely give it a miss as the original was definitely a masterpiece.
HelBic 28th Aug 2019		Cinema Bride Of Frankenstein (1935)	Probably the best Frankenstein movie ever IMO. Also, Karloff IS the monster.
HelBic 28th Aug 2019		Cinema The Conversation (1974) (1974)	Fantastic movie, Gene Hackman at his best.
HelBic 31st Jan 2017		Cinema The Ninth Configuration (1980) (1980)	Based on the book by Bill Blatty called "Twinkle Twinkle Killer Kane" the book was great and this is a good adaptation.
