    ★★★½

    This was decent with two strong actors at the top of their game (ish) following a predictable plot that twists and turns to keep you interested before you give up. It’s funny and it’s a good watch - it’s a WWF smash down (Washington & Wahlberg Frolic) that I liked even though other people might not agree as they give up to the ‘man’ and say it’s not good. Shame on them. This is intelligent dumb fun. 10 out of 10! I score this 3.5 👍

    The was the best Spider-Man experience you could possibly ask for. I expected a visual treat but instead experienced something beyond my imagination & quite special. The story was thoughtfully written and so fast paced with beautiful animation just exploding from the screen. There were many moments when I found myself unable to blink. This film balanced Spider-Man fun with some serious and quite emotional ‘acting’ with new & old characters given even more depth. Easter eggs just kept coming and coming…

    Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

    ★★★★

    They up their game here in quality and in story telling. This is grittier and better for it & I loved the new characters as well as accepted the ‘new’ Dumbledore without any issues. The Christmas theme has made me question why they are celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ who clearly must have been a mediocre wizard at best. (Also should note that Santa is never in the same scene as Dumbledore in this film - both with similar powers and beards!!).

    Better than the first & the character development steps up once again. Kenneth Branagh’s character is top class and how the kids react around him is genuinely funny. I really found Dobby to be a lot more complex than I remembered and have since desperately tried to get my wife buy me some socks but so far no luck yet.
