We’re a third of the way through Moon Knight and I’m starting to think the shine is already wearing off the apple with this one. Taking into account that this is essentially an origin story mixed with an world-saving adventure (which I think might be a bit more than can be covered within a six […]
After one episode, I’m convinced the only reason Moon Knight will succeed – if it succeeds – is due to the charisma of Oscar Isaac. Because, despite what appears to be a pretty insane premise (man with dissociative identity disorder ends up possessed by an ancient Egyptian deity – who is voiced by F. Murray […]
If there’s one criticism that can be levied against the slate of Disney+ MCU television shows it’s that they have trouble with endings. WandaVision, which was one of the best MCU offerings to date, stumbled at the close. Loki packed a punch, but also needed to introduce a villain for a future MCU project, so […]
Spider-man is a character that needs little introduction. He is one of Marvel’s most famous characters and has been popular across many forms of media. His third film within the Marvel Cinematic Universe is his biggest yet. Spider-man: No Way Home picks up where Spider-man: Far From Home left off with Spider-man’s identity being revealed to the world […]
So, Yelena showed up earlier than I had both predicted and hoped, which in an already over-stuffed episode, may signal that the Hawkeye arc is getting a bit too crowded as the series approaches its final two episodes.

Well, here we are again – diving into yet another MCU Disney+ series; this time, dealing with the oft forgotten original Avenger, Hawkeye. I have to admit, much like with Wanda, I was never a huge Hawkeye fan – no offense to Jeremy Renner, but the bow and arrow toting superhero was never prominent enough […]
Chloé Zhao’s movies are beautiful. They feature incredible photography of natural landscapes, and ultra-naturalistic dialogue often delivered by non-actors cast off the street. Her films are deeply meditative and authentic and have the capacity to really touch audiences who are open to a different kind of movie. It made perfect sense that she swept last […]
The Marvel Cinematic Universe enters the world of martial arts fantasy with Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. Shaun (Simu Liu) is a valet in San Francisco whose friends think isn’t living up to his potential. Yet he harbours a deep dark secret because his real name is Shang-Chi and his father, Xu […]
The first installment of Marvel and Disney+’s new series What If . . .? asks the question “What if Captain Carter were the first Avenger? (Instead of Steve Rogers.)” The answer, as you might have expected, was that Peggy Carter would become a hero swathed in the Union Jack, kicking Nazi ass and sacrificing herself […]
