A review in 23 words:

In my review for Avengers: Infinity War, I said:
“Ten years of hard work pays off.”

I was wrong. This is the payoff.

Captain Marvel

A review in 50 words:

Calling this an average Marvel movie undersells the film itself and the overall quality of Marvel’s output over the past decade.
It’s wonderful to have a film where Carol’s struggles being a woman in the 1990s help hone her into who she is, but don’t define her as a character.

Final Verdict: 👍

How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World

A Review in 39 words:

Prior to Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse, I felt that only one animated film came anywhere close to the storytelling prowess of Disney and Pixar: How to Train Your Dragon.

The Hidden World lives up to that standard.

Black Panther

A review in 32 words:

Ryan Cooglar delivers a film that is not only a delight to watch, but one with an emotional core and political commentary that you wouldn’t expect to find in a Marvel film.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi

A review in 50 words:

While deeply flawed—its tone and comedic sensibilities better suited for Marvel rather than Star Wars— The Last Jedi is what we needed. It challenged our understanding of the galaxy, affirmed that you can come from nothing and still be a hero, declared that The Force belongs to us all.

Final Verdict: 👍

Justice League

 A review in 49 words:

A somewhat entertaining but mediocre film. If you are a fan of DC’s animated work, you might find it enjoyable enough to be worth the money spent on a ticket. If you aren’t a DC fan and want to see a movie this weekend, go see Thor. Ragnarok instead.

Final Verdict: 👎

Thor: Ragnarok

A review in 47 words:

10 years of universe building allows the filmmakers to dive deep into the crazy-silly aspects of a character and the worlds they visit, while still delivering the action and “hero fights” we expect. It has just as much Taika as you can Waititi.

Simply put: Fun.

Final Verdict: 👍
