The Backend
However you may feel about Neill Blomkamp’s «Chappie» (I know I was disappointed as hell). His new project creating experimental short films is absolutely worth a look.
Drop whatever you’re doing right and now check out the studio’s phenomenal work on https://www.youtube.com/user/OatsStudios.
Warning: Not for the faint of heart!
Just realized I never got around to review Netflix’ «Iron Fist»:
Yes, it sucks.
Moving on…
Wow, I almost lost my wallet there at the theater! But I wouldn’t have lost the money: The latest cinematic iteration of Spider-Man is well worth its admission price.
It’s got heart, it has humour, it’s got a great cast. And as unbelievable as is sounds, this co-production between Marvel Studios and Sony (who still hold the rights to the movie character, technically, I think) has something the «purer» MCU films had yet to deliver on: A great villain! Michael Keaton is perfect in the role (winged superpersons obviously just seem to be his thing) and his persona «The Vulture» equally satisfies as antagonist as well as a driving storyelement.
Tom Holland’s Peter Parker is great, too; but no surprise there. And the suits (as in «the VFX») are fun to explore but interestingly enough not as overwhelming and important as let’s say the «Avengers» movies.
So no, I don’t regret to have worn my Spidey T-Shirt to work today. And yes, in the end, I found my wallet under the seat.
Um,… Miss Woman? I wonder if you’d marry me?
[ ] Yes
[ ] No
[x] I see you more as a friend
The movie’s not bad, either. All thanks to Gal Gadot. I think I’d watch her watching paint dry.
Wow! Even after all those years Ridley Scott still knows how to disappoint me. He undoubtably created some of the greatest films ever made, but I’m sad to state that for years now, his movies feel more like Scott-free than «SCOTT FREE» productions*.

What a great sci-fi fantasy action comedy! I laughed my ass off and if you’re an eighties kid, you probably will, too.
In the end there was not a dry eye in the house (and that wasn’t because of the 3D glasses).
Torturing a non-nerd friend who just happened to have mentioned once that he kinda liked «The Punisher» (Thomas Jane).
Correction:
Just realized know, that’s the first Netflix Punisher Season. His character was so strong in Daredevil Season 2 that my memory tricked me. (My friend wouldn’t know any better, of course).
