'The Gifted' Pilot episode review: Great Start to Marvel/Fox's New series!


🌟The Gifted🌟Pilot Review🌟9/10🌟Spoiler Free🌟

So last night I finally got around to seeing the pilot episode of Fox's The Gifted, here's how I'm feeling about it.

Fox’s first broadcast X-Men series moves away from the core members of the X-Men and features lesser known mutants as we follow the Strucker family who become on the run from the government after the children start exhibiting super-powers but they can't do it alone!

I love it all so far and no wonder why, just in the first episode we meet about 8 mutants and there awesome! We have mutants like Polaris, Blink, Thunderbird, Eclipse and more. What more could you ask for? Well the cast all seem great so far, easing into there roles at a fast pace and all meshing together nicely. It doesn't look cheap or cheesy like most shows you see using super abilities, which is no easy feat (to make it look real). Action, drama and great dialogue, it has it all. The plot seems strong and the hole score has got me very intrigued.

The best thing is, I was expecting just 8 episodes, but nooooo we are getting 10, a hole 2 episodes more, i'm super psyched about that, so I'm really looking forward to seeing where this all goes and how it all unfolds! Dis you watch? What did you guys think?

Paul Thomas Anderson Week: 'There Will Be Blood' Review!

• There Will Be Blood, 2007 • 8.2/10 • Firstly, I would like to start with Daniel Day Lewis' mesmerizing performance as the ruthless oil prospector, Daniel Plainview. The scumbag cons local landowners into selling their valuable land for pittance, and then he comes along like a "straw" and "sucks it all up," leaving him very wealthy and everyone else in his way. Paul Dano, Wow, do you really expect anything less than magic when it comes to him acting, he's a true tour de force. I wish we had preachers like Eli Sunday up at my local church. Johnny Greenwood's score is brilliant, it really gets under your skin, you then combine that with the gorgeous cinematography, smart screenplay and the brilliant acting, you then have yourself a film where even if your not paying complete attention, you will still hate the lead by the end, all the same! Yeah, I did just say that. I'm sorry peeps but it got a little boring at times (it didn't keep me hook

'Tomb Raider' Review: First Successful Game Adaptation! Kudos!

Image
• Tomb Raider, 2018 • 7.9/10 • Alicia Vikander gives Lara depth and personality much like Harrison Ford's Indiana Jones. She's vulnerable, but she's also stubborn and focused to survive on her own and has never lost hope that she'll once again see her father. The story is built on the reboot of the video game series, but takes another way after the arrival at the destination where most of the action takes place. When the story follows the video game it has weaknesses (as so many games adaptations do), but when it stands on its own, it shows glimpses of coming adventures for Lara Croft that makes you want more -- much because of Vikanders grounded performance. The script is by no means perfect, the CGI was a bit spotty in places, and yes there are a few cliches and overused story devices here and there, but overall it is an enjoyable film and our first successful game adaptation! Yesss! P.S - Dominc West was the perfect choice for Mr. Croft!

Some funny news as Seth Rogen criticises Sony on Twitter!

Seth Rogen has criticised a new Sony Pictures initiative to make family friendly versions of its films available to viewers. Sony’s Clean Version initiative allows home entertainment customers to purchase films that have been edited for broadcast television and in-flight entertainment systems. Under the scheme, “scenes of graphic violence, offensive language, sexual innuendo and other adult content” will be censored or removed from some PG-13 and R-rated movies. So far, “clean versions” of 24 films, including Captain Phillips, Step Brothers and the Spider-Man movies, have been made available to purchase. Rogen criticised the initiative on Twitter : “Holy shit please don’t do this to our movies. Thanks.” Holy shit please don't do this to our movies. Thanks. https://t.co/0lpoESaIQd — Seth Rogen (@Sethrogen) 6 June 2017 The actor, who has made adult-themed comedies such as Knocked Up , This Is The End and Sausage Party (don't forget the legendary Pineapple Expre
