A field trip to Europe with his classmates was supposed to provide Peter Parker (Tom Holland) with a well-earned respite from his superhero alter-ego of Spider-Man. But when he's recruited by superspy Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson), Spidey is soon back on the job and teaming up with the InchMysterioInch-us Quentin Beck (Jake Gyllenhaal)-apparently a hero from an alternate universe-for a dangerous mission that may not be what it appears. Zendaya, Jon Favreau, Marisa Tomei co-star in this fun-filled Marvel sequel.

This is the first Marvel feature in the aftermath of the Infinity War and it refers to the death of Tony Stark quite a bit. It's now obvious what Marvel has planned for the new Spider-Man franchise and how it will fit in with the rest of the MCU. Lots of Nick Fury and Jake Gyllenhall is excellent as Mysterio.

read the book a long time ago and loved it. So glad to see it being made into a mini-series or perhaps it will be a continuing series? At any rate it is excellent. Dark themes and not for the squeamish. Caleb Carr did write a sequel to The Alienist titled The Angel of Darkness so there is fodder for at least another season and the concept can be further expanded. This reminds me a bit of The Knick, another historical drama roughly set in the same time period.

This may seem dated to newer generations however in it's time presented ground breaking special effects - this was still pre-CGI so the FX are in camera and impressive considering. Plus it just a fun flick and perfect for Halloween. A bit ahead of it's time, incorporating elements of comedy, satire and drama that confused many audiences of the era. It holds up very well.

Timeline-wise in the Transformers' franchise, this film would actually come first! Set in the 80's it tells of the mission where BumbleBee was sent to earth on reconnaissance. A bit of a coming of age tale mixed with the usual sci-fi. Very character and story driven, it is still a wildly entertaining movie.

To the credit of the director and writers the story is more based on the real "human" emotions of all the characters, making it more compelling and less of a mere "popcorn" movie. This is a more adult film with performances from some very fine actors. Don't pay attention to the unjustifiable bad reviews this movie has gotten.

This is a fun origin because not only do we get to see Captain Marvel's origin but also how Nick Fury became who is is today and how Captain Marvel set him on that path. Great FX as always and appropriately good acting for the genre.

This season seems to be modeled after the first one, and even briefly refers to the main characters of that season. This is the most realistic detective drama ever presented. It shows the reality of the job and how everything isn't always tied up in a neat little package like in the CSI shows. Those shows have their place and are entertaining but this is more gritty and real.

There's a lot here - lots of characters to keep up with, symbolism, metaphors, satire. The humor is usually of the darker variety. The acting excellent. It's easy to get lost and even a bit confused at the intricate plots and subplots but you could just turn the sound off at times and enjoy the often psychedelic visuals. The FX are done very well, whether it be burning talking heads or white bulls with fire coming out of their eyes. Carousels that spin and morph into dazzling lights that transport to another dimension. Entertaining, to say the least!

It's difficult not to become redundant, especially in a "superhero" genre series. So this season has Oliver/Green Arrow working out of his prison cell. At least they're trying to keep it interesting!

Many might be disappointed at Rick Grime's departure but it was time for a change and it opens up many new possibilities. And this season we got zombies in the snow! The show was close to getting stale and I think this new season has rejuvenated the premise.
