Regardless of some of the inconsistencies, plot holes, and character choices in this film, it is still extremely enjoyable. I enjoy Venelope and Ralph together, and taking their lives and stories into a new world (Internet and Internet gaming) was a bold and difficult step. Granted, there are a ton of Disney IPs within, but do you blame them? Animation is stellar. I love they dynamic of the leading duo (as well as their voice action - John C. Reily is wildly underrated). Give it a watch.

I owned this film on Bluray and bought it on 4k simply because I love it that much. Hellboy does have its negatives, but those are overshadowed by the action, the adventure, the darkness, the paranormal, and the laughs. The acting is superb, and I still see Perlman as Hellboy, not David Harbour (although he is still an awesome actor). The practical effects are mind-blowing while the CG seems too animated, bit goofy. Regardless, you don't have to be a fan of the comics to enjoy this!

Angelina Jolie is great as the titular character, who has been my favorite Disney villain since I first watched Sleeping Beauty. The story is intriguing, although a few holes are here and there, especial if comparing hard to the animated classic. The animation is nice, for the most part (still not keen on the fairies). Jolie is, again, great, but the other character are a bit too-cardboard for me. Regardless, it's an enjoyable film with the right amount of darkness.
Overcome a desperate inner struggle as doctor-turned-vampire Jonathan Reid in Vampyr for Xbox One. Set on early 20th century London streets, this game follows its protagonist as he battles monsters, defends himself against vampire hunters and searches for an influenza cure. Use your dark powers, feed on selected victims and save others in Vampyr.

I bought this game on a whim, with only reading a few reviews. I wasn't really expecting much, and although this gaming isn't breaking any barriers or widely remembered, it is still worthy of attention. The concept is great, with heavy dark atmosphere enhanced by the voice acting and core mechanics. Lacks in story - bit droll and cliched - the animation/graphics are bit behind in development years, and the combat can be goofy, but again, worth a play through definitely.

Takes the world of The LEGO Movie to another level. Animation is phenomenal, jokes and satire on point, voice acting a definite win, and the story was welcomingly unexpected.
Cybertron has fallen. When Optimus Prime sends Bumblebee to defend Earth, his journey to become a hero begins. Charlie Watson (Hailee Steinfeld), a teenager trying to find her place in the world, discovers and repairs the battle-scarred robot, who's disguised as a Volkswagen Beetle. As the Decepticons hunt down the surviving Autobots with the help of a secret agency led by Agent Burns (John Cena), Bumblebee and Charlie team up to protect the world in an action-packed adventure that's fun for the whole family.

I'm not a huge fan of the Transformers franchise. The action and special effects are phenomenal but the story is . . . well, that's a review for a different time. For Bumblebee, I went in with reservations thanks to it predecessor films. Within 5 minutes, I was hooked. This is the Transformers film we wanted. Again, the effects and action scenes are awesome. Acting is superb. Bumbleebee's back story is done well, and with care. Music is amazing (80s anyone?). You can't go wrong with this film. And if you haven't seen or don't care for the rest of the film franchise, that's fine. You won't be disappointed with this entry.

Acclaimed writer Stephen King, and legendary director Tobe Hooper created a wonderful if not campy horror movie. One of the tactfully enjoyable vampire movies of last century. Definitely worth a watch, and worth putting in your collection.

The impact of the MCU and all its films is undeniable, as is the legacy of Iron Man, or more specifically, Robert Downey Jr.'s Tony Stark. While Iron Man 2 is seen as the lesser of the billionaire playboy's lesser films, it is no less enjoyable. Despite its place in the MCU and it's sometimes obvious flaws, I recommend Iron Man 2 anyway.

Lego Ninjago Movie isnt ground breaking by any means, but that doesn't make it any less fun. Take the basic adventure plot, mix it with ninjutsu, and add hefty amounts of LEGO style humor. Definitely recommend for anyone at any age.

If you have ever played or heard of the original Shaq Fu, then you will be familiar with this version. Obviously tech has changed but the core remains. Silly but wildly enjoyable,and best played with friends.
