    The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes

    A hot piece of garbage of a film where everyone walks around wearing a 12-year-old anime fans idea of high fashion And having the world populated by attractive young people is much more important than having anything that resembles sensitive and quality acting.

    Admittedly, I’m not the audience for this film. But that doesn’t make it less crappy than it is.

    Despite coming out during the height of the so-called superhero film fatigue, and despite the number of multiple spider-man movies (and actors playing spider-man in different incarnations) this film does something extraordinary: it shows us something new.

    Our hero is not just a new Spider-man, but a new character as Spider-Man in the form of Miles Moralis. Peter Parker is also present (sort of), but only in the way the title suggests. While there are currently a slew of multiverse…

    This film is bad. It has some interesting ideas but those ideas are squandered. A subplot that the film starts with ends up unrated to the main plat and goes nowhere. The final acts drags and commits the worst offence of all, it's boring.

    Full disclosure: I actually made the poster that is being used here. It was probably lifted from themoviedb where I uploaded it awhile back.

    I saw this film back in 93 and it ticked all my boxes. A murder mystery/court room drama set in the dark ages with bawdy funny moments. It also has some of my favorite actors giving some of their best performances.
