  After the big success of 2023's Evil Dead Rise comes a new entry into the long running horror franchise. What do you get when you put an in law meeting at the funeral of your husband who just also just so happens to have not actually passed away but instead is an incarnation of hell itself and wants nothing to do but make the world and those he loves in it burn?? you get this movie and boy oh boy is this movie a trip. Evil Dead movies have always not been for the faint of heart but Burn goes above and beyond in it's attempt at spilling as much blood as possible in a movie that is half part intense and grotesque and the other a really cheesey final act packed with uninspired CGI. Blood, blood and more blood seemed to be on the agenda for all involved in bringing Evil Dead Burns to life as it sort of shys away from the original concept of the dead rising from the grave thanks to the book of the dead in it's stead is a long standing family drama in the form of a real living ...

  The latest Disney live action remake of a beloved classic animated movie comes in the form of Moana a movie that is barely a decade old. With that in mind is this just a cash grab or does it hold it's own value?? well..it's the former unfortunately as Moana is pretty much just a retelling of the original movie in live action form and it doesn't nearly hold or look as charming as the original did almost a decade ago now. The visuals are so off putting at points it's almost nauseating with uncomfortable views of a blatant backdrop / green screen present especially in the water scenes it's really so off putting and doesn't help in what is otherwise a basic and rather bland live action remake of Moana.  The Rock is back as demi god Maui sporting a pretty ridiculous wig and much like the lackluster visuals it's just really off putting as it doesn't seem to sit right nor does it really add anything and I know the original character had hair like this but sur...

The DCU train chugs along and after a really lackluster start point with Superman last summer can his cousin Kara Zor-El aka Supergirl fair any better?? based upon the comic named Woman of Tomorrow this version of Supergirl is a lot more robust, more of a rebel and party goer rather than the traditional Girl of Steel let's say akin to Melissa Benoist's portrayal in the Supergirls show. Milly Alcock is brilliant here as Supergirl / Kara and really carries the movie on her shoulders pretty efforlessly. Her Kara is a lot more darker, more vulnerable and a whole lot more relatable to Superman in this universe given we see her backstory and how it defines her to ultimately becoming the person and hero she was always supposed to be.  The Woman of Tomorrow comic is a real personal favorite of mine as not only is it dark in it's themes and overall narrative but it's presentation is next to none. Visually popping off the page the movie doesn't really do the comic justice in ...

  Opening narration : December 22nd Christmas in Gotham was like a winter wonderland, the snow was falling at heavy amounts decorating the city in white, 3 months have passed since Vengeance seemingly disappeared and Bruce Wayne has been doing his upmost to restore Gotham's faith in not just Batman but the Wayne name and legacy, Robin is now Nightwing and is keeping Bludhaven safe with the help of his Titan friends which leaves Bruce, Barbara Gordon and Alfred now the sole protectors of Gotham City...but there's a freezing air flowing and something is brewing that is sure to chill Gotham to it's very core.    Alfred Pennyworth “Tea sir?? Ms Gordon??” Alfred along with Bruce and Barbara are in the bat-cave Alfred pouring out two cups of tea for them both as they've just arrived back from a night out on patrol                                    Barbara Gordon “You know I'm grateful for...
