AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR REVIEW

NON-SPOILER REVIEW #Thanosdemandsyoursilence I have had the privilege of seeing Avengers: Infinity War (IW), the climax event of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), I call it a privilege cause it truly is; to have watched every single entry in the MCU leading to this, and having the 'grace' to witness the colossal cinematic moment that all those films were building up to. Suffice to say, there will only be a handful of monumental events like this in cinema history and I'm glad to have witnessed one. Infinity War is the culmination of the past 10 years and 18 movies of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which kicked off with Iron-Man, so if you aren't well versed with this Universe you may want (to speed binge) to get up to speed, since there are tons of references and history you might miss otherwise. Infinity War picks up right after Thor: Ragnarok, and hits the ground running (trust me though, it's the end that will have you talking), which sets the pace f

JOKER: A DEEP, DARK, MASTERPIECE.

I confess, when I heard a standalone Joker film had been green-lit by Warner Bros, I was gutted. “Another cinematic Joker outside the DCEU?”, “The Joker doesn’t need a backstory!” These were my first thoughts as I wondered if Warner Bros and DC films didn’t have enough cock-ups already. Well…I’m glad to report that I was wrong. The Joker is the movie I didn’t want, but the movie I’m glad we got. The Todd Phillips (A Star is Born, The Hangover trilogy, Road Trip) directed movie has been the most thought provoking film I’ve experienced in quite some time. This isn't just another ‘comic book movie’. Joker might be based on one of the most popular comic book characters of all time, but it certainly isn’t a follower of the thematic trope which the genre has popularly become associated with. The Joker is a wildcard, at a time when there seemed to be only one way of making comic book movies, it’s a drama, a thriller, a contemporary documentary and a comic book movie rolled into one. Le

THE FAST & THE SPURIOUS?

There is so much excitement for the latest Fast and Furious installment, The Fate of the Furious, which is the 8th in the series (yes 8th, makes you wonder how much racing, chasing, shooting and blowing shit up one team of car enthusiasts can really do!) and that’s well and good, but I can’t remember the last time I was this apathetic towards a one-time favourite movie of mine and box office beast! But truth is I’ve had my fill of Dominic Toretto and his rag tag of brothers, sister and wife or maybe I’m just tired of seeing Vin Diesel consistently churn out lame catch phrases at an attempt to be lackadaisically cool. I used to love this series and I still think it’s a great win for the action genre, but guess I just pulled out after Fast and Furious became more than underground racing, drug lords and street level bad guys, now they are in Jason Bourne-Ethan Hunt-James Bond territory, chasing down most wanted terrorists across international borders and doing the governments’ dirty
