Came across this while browsing through Netflix. I vaguely remembered hearing good things about it around the time of its initial release, so I thought I’d give it a try. Wow, what a pleasant surprise! Slowly building dread and tension and with a great soundtrack and some good action scenes, this was thoroughly enjoyable. Once […]
Well, I seem to be in the minority of people who really enjoyed this… I enjoyed Man of Steel too. I remember going on the day of release – I’d had a particularly bad day, filled with car trouble, and Man of Steel was the perfect bit of escapism. I particularly enjoyed the earlier half

My little brother would have absolutely lost his geeky shit over this movie. That thought continued to pop into my head as I watched and enjoyed Civil War. He was a massive superhero and comic nerd who sadly lost his battle with cancer shortly before the release of Age of Ultron last year, a movie
