The Flash 8x16 : The Curious Case of Bartholomew Allen review

Image
                Be warned there will be SP OILERS* inv olved in this review. With that being said let's get into it. The Flash has been somewhat solid as of late. It's not been perfect but it's been at the very least a lot more bearable to watch then what we were at this point last season. So can this weeks episode finally offer something new and exciting and transform into something great rather than just something solid? the episode opens up with The Flash stopping various crimes in Central City. It's simple stuff like him stopping a hold up at Jitters and saving an old woman from oncoming traffic as she crosses the road. Barry is soon back at Joe's place where a night of playing games among all of Team Flash is taking place. It's a regular occasion held but this time it is without Iris present which it's clear to see hurts Barry. Speaking of Barry he gets a call to go to his lab at CCPD where he meets none other than Captain Singh who is here with a case

Top Gun : Maverick review

Image
  Top Gun : Maverick has finally arrived in cinemas after many delays and reshuffles to it's arrival, will it live up to the hype? Tom Cruise returns as Captain Pete ''Maverick'' Mitchell an air force pilot. A lot of time has passed since the original and it ties directly into this movie as Maverick's character goes through many highs and lows throughout. In present day Maverick is a part of a training programme but when that gets grounded and shut down by an Admiral he is tasked with his biggest and most interesting task to date. Teaching. Not just teaching but the teaching of some of the best up and coming pilots the USA has to offer. His training methods are not standard, far from it as he really pushes these pilots to their absolute limits. But what is the mission?? it's almost a death sentence but with Maverick's help it all seems possible right? A follow up to Top Gun which I wasn't necessarily the biggest fan of was inevitable but who knew it

The Flash 8x15 : Into the Still Force review

Image
                Be warned there will be SP OILERS* inv olved in this review. With that being said let's get into it. This weeks episode of The Flash is a deep dive into the Still Force to find Iris who at the end of last weeks episode just up and vanished into thin air once again due to her time sickness. Can Barry and Dion find and save her?? the episode opens up with Barry who comes downstairs to find out that Iris has been at her office all night working. He runs to said office only to not find Iris, an unfinished article written on her laptop and her phone which rings from her bag when Barry rings it. Barry immediately runs to Star Labs to check for any sign of Iris but it's to no avail. In fact it's so much to no avail that Iris isn't even on this Earth with no trace of her anywhere. This can only mean one thing, she is inside of the Still Force itself and this is when Barry really gets to work as he goes to Coast City to talk to the girl that Iris had previously b

The Flash 8x14 : Funeral for a Friend review

Image
                Be warned there will be SP OILERS* inv olved in this review. With that being said let's get into it. This weeks episode of The Flash is a very much a tribute to Frost who died at the end of last weeks episode while defeating Deathstorm. Her death has clearly taken a toll on Team Flash as this episode opens up with a shot of everyone in the mourning stage. We learn that Jitters has named a new drink after Frost which they've called Killer Frost. That later gets changed to just Frost as her good duties and heroic acts are more explored and detailed. The mourning has to be put to one side however as at Star Labs we hear the signal of an attack in the city go off. The Flash rushes to the scene along with Alegra and Cecil who are far too under powered for just exactly who this new threat it is. It is Blockbuster who easily overpowers them Cecil and Alegra as The Flash has to deal with a collapsing building thanks to one of Blockbuster's tremors which are extremel

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness review

Image
                Be warned there will be SP OILERS* inv olved in this review. With that being said let's get into it. I really liked the original Doctor Strange. It was unique and a real kickstarter of magic and sorcery in the MCU. It is now 2022 and an Infinity War later can this sequel which promises utter madness and chaos in the multiverse hence the title. Benedict Cumberbatch returns as Doctor Stephen Strange who is still not the Sorcerer Supreme. Our journey opens up within a dream as we see another version of Stephen Strange, one who is seen protecting a young woman who later we come to known as America Chavez. She is extremely important to the overall plot as she possesses the power to open and close portals to different universes. She is being hunted however and this leads to her meeting the Strange of the main MCU timeline as the two go from Earth 838 which is a future distopia type all the way to an Earth that has been destroyed thanks to the multiversal jumping around. 

The Flash 8x13 : Death Falls review

Image
                Be warned there will be SP OILERS* inv olved in this review. With that being said let's get into it. The Flash has been good recently. It's be consistent with a solid story leading into good scenes and a good villain in Deathstorm. Not amazing but a vast improvement and the best villain since Bloodwork in my opinion. So with that being said can this episode continue the upward trajectory of The Flash? the episode begins with Iris who is still with Sue in Coast City. At the end of last weeks episode we saw Eddie Thawne ''reappear'' before his ex fiance. He assures Iris that everything is okay and that he is here to take care of her until she gets better. Is this just another trick by Deathstorm or is there something far sinister at play here? we're soon back at Star Labs where Caitlin is still pretty much out of it after her encounter with Deathstorm in last weeks episode. It is up to Frost now as we learned last week as she is to become the A

Horizon Forbidden West review

Image
                Be warned there will be SP OILERS* inv olved in this review. With that being said let's get into it. I've always wanted to do video game reviews. Besides movies and comic books it is my favorite form of media. And what better game to start with then Horizon II Forbidden West. A game that in my eyes couldn't come out fast enough. So with that being said I hope you like my first attempt at a video game review, if it does well and people like it I will be doing a lot more in the future.  Back in 2017 Guerrilla Games unleashed Horizon Zero Dawn into the world exclusive to the Playstation 4 console. Games fell in love with the world, lore and characters. I immediately took to it and upon playing through to completion I have no issue calling it not only my favorite PS4 game of all time but one of my favorite games period. I spent close to 100 hours with Horizon Zero Dawn hovering up everything it had to offer including a pretty hefty DLC which opened up an entirel

Superman & Lois 2x11 : Truth and Consequences review

Image
                Be warned there will be SP OILERS* inv olved in this review. With that being said let's get into it. After a season best episode last week can this weeks episode of Superman and Lois be a worthy follow up? the simple answer is yes! the episode opens up where we ended last week as John-El arrives on Earth-Prime via the Bizarro world portal. He is at the Kent farm wanting to merge with this worlds version of himself. He even begins the process as Johnathan arrives home at the Kent Farm as Jordan and Lois watch on. Jordan attempts to help his brother but is brushed aside by Bizarro Johnathan with ease as the merge of the two gets underway. A radiant circle of energy surrounds them much like we saw happened with Ally Alston last week. Johnathan calls out for help from Lois who in return shouts out his name. Superman is here soon enough however after exiting the Bizarro world at the end of last weeks episode. He returns here as we see him fly out of the mines after comin
