After watching so many Marvel movies about saving the entire world, Ant Man feels like a refreshing change of pace. I wasn't sure what to expect from a superhero who can shrink to the size of an insect, but I ended up e…

Just when I thought these teenagers couldn't get into any more trouble, “School Lies” proves me wrong! What starts as a fun night sneaking into the school swimming pool quickly turns into something serious when someone…

After how much I enjoyed the first Avengers movie, I had high expectations for Age of Ultron . And while I don't think it reaches the same level as its predecessor, it's still a very entertaining adventure. What I find…

Book Review — Stephen King (Richard Bachman) Some books scare you with monsters, ghosts, or supernatural creatures. Others don't need any of that. They simply take something ordinary, turn it into a nightmare, and make…

Guardians of the Galaxy is one of those Marvel movies that never fails to make me smile. I remember how strange the idea seemed at first: a talking raccoon, a walking tree, and a group of criminals saving the galaxy. So…

Captain America: The Winter Soldier is easily one of my favorite MCU movies. What makes it special is that it feels more like a political thriller than a traditional superhero adventure. Steve Rogers is no longer fighti…

There are books that you read, enjoy, and eventually forget. And then there are books that introduce you to a world you want to return to again and again. I think Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (1997), by J. K…

Watching Thor: The Dark World again, I have mixed feelings. I really enjoy exploring more of Asgard and seeing Thor face a threat that goes beyond Earth. The visual effects and action sequences are impressive, but I fee…

Iron Man 3 feels different from the previous movies, and that's actually what I enjoy about it. After everything that happened in New York, Tony Stark is struggling with anxiety and fear. Seeing someone so confident sud…

Watching The Avengers again reminds me why this movie was such a big deal back in 2012. Seeing Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Hulk, Black Widow, and Hawkeye together felt almost impossible at the time. What I love mos…

What I like most about Captain America: The First Avenger is that Steve Rogers is already a hero before receiving the serum. He's physically weak, but he refuses to run away from a fight or abandon someone who needs hel…

Rewatching Thor , what I enjoy most is how different it feels from the first MCU movies. Suddenly we leave technology behind and enter Asgard, gods and mythology. Chris Hemsworth fits the character perfectly, but I espe…

After finishing Foundation , I thought I understood the rules of Isaac Asimov's universe. Hari Seldon had calculated the future. The Galactic Empire would continue collapsing, the Foundation would survive a series of cr…

Iron Man 2 isn't as strong as the first movie for me, but I still have a lot of fun with it. What I like most is seeing the consequences of Tony revealing his identity. Everyone wants his technology, his health is deter…

The Incredible Hulk feels very different from most of the MCU movies that came later. It's darker, more serious, and Bruce Banner spends most of the story running away rather than trying to become a superhero. I actuall…

X Men: The Last Stand has always left me with mixed feelings. I really like the idea of a “cure” for mutation because it creates one of the most interesting moral conflicts of the trilogy. Xavier and Magneto once again…

For me, X2 is where this original X Men saga really found its identity. The first movie introduced the world, but this one feels more confident, darker and much more ambitious. The opening with Nightcrawler is still one…

Watching X Men today feels surprisingly nostalgic. It comes from a time when superhero movies were much simpler, before enormous cinematic universes became the norm. What I still enjoy is that the movie spends more time…

Watching Iron Man again after everything the MCU became is a completely different experience. What I still love most is Tony Stark himself: arrogant, funny, brilliant, and definitely not a hero when we first meet him. H…
