This is a cleverly crafted screenplay that could have simply dropped the “Part I” in its title and the “to be continued” at the end, if Universal had decided it wasn’t good enough to greenlight a sequel.

The story and the idea behind it are so good, but the screenplay falls apart so quickly.

During the marketing and release cycle of this movie, I didn’t have high hopes.

This is a first in my new series, Micro Reviews.

I started this blog over five years ago.

Since the beginning of time invention of video, humanity has thirsted for realism.

Big budget, “eye candy” singleplayer games have hit a point in improved fidelity and quality of gameplay where, for many of them, it may be time to double down on expansions over sequels.

I recently watched the first season of an extremely popular HBO show, but I didn’t enjoy it very much.

Of the MCU’s first three Phases, the third one is not only the longest, but also the most ambitious by far.

Some of Phase Two deals with the fallout of The Avengers.

This is the first in a series of posts documenting my first rewatch of Marvel Cinematic Universe movies, Phases One to Three; starting at Iron Man (2008) and ending at Avengers: Endgame (2019).

Phase One turned out a lot more enjoyable than I expected, viewing from a post-Endgame, 2020s lens.

As we have established, I have rated over a thousand movies on IMDb thus far.

As the Marvel Cinematic Universe chugs along building an increasingly complex story comprising of episodic movies and dozens of seasons’ worth of TV series, I often find myself nitpicking some of the littler details in the franchise.

Earlier this year, I played through Alien: Isolation, a very well regarded horror game set in the universe originally created for the Alien film franchise.

Movie ratings are complicated.

In the last 8 or so years, I have watched and rated at least 1001 films* on IMDb.
