I've watched most of the MI: films, with Fallout being my favourite. Dead Reckoning pt.1 was good so thought I'd give this a watch. It doesn't directly follow on from the cliffhanger of the first. It tries to be clever and unnecessarily tie in every flim in the series. Spends far too long over indulging in fan service and call backs. Lacks the charm that previous films had Slows down set pieces and has almost laughable close call moments along the way. It's still Mission Impossible, but on steroids in every single department, for better or worse unfortunatly. Everything that used to be epic, has just become boring over the top ... *sigh*

Review: The Paper Not sure what this show is trying to be maybe a spiritual follow-up to The Office but whatever it is, it isn’t funny. The first episode feels like it’s supposed to make you laugh, with its mockumentary-style camerawork, awkward pauses after punchlines, and wry asides. But for me, none of it landed. The only moment that even raised a smile was the line about braking for a deer causing death “in my experience.” Beyond that, the humor fell flat. I like Tim Key, but here he’s playing what feels like a knock-off David Brent, and it just doesn’t work. Verdict: The Paper is a pale imitation of The Office, without the wit, timing, or charm that made the original a classic.

Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora – Review ⭐ 6/10 As a massive fan of Avatar and the rich, immersive world James Cameron built, stepping into the shoes of a Na'vi and exploring Pandora firsthand was a dream come true. Visually, Frontiers of Pandora absolutely delivers, It's hands down the best-looking game I've played on the Xbox Series X. The lush biomes, dynamic lighting, and sheer scale of the world make it a genuine graphical showcase that any Avatar fan will appreciate. The main story? It's good, not great, but solid enough to carry you through. Unfortunately, the same can't be said for much of the content that surrounds it. Side quests quickly become tedious, the outposts and bases feel more repetitive than even Far Cry's formulaic setup, and the game suffers from some truly terrible character writing. Preya, in particular, stands out as one of the most irritating NPCs I've encountered in recent memory she messes up constantly and grates on your nerves every time she speaks. And then there's the baffling inclusion of microtransactions. Why a single-player, first-person story game needs a cosmetic shop is beyond me. It’s invasive, unnecessary, and takes away from what should have been a pure, immersive experience. Despite all that, I still found enjoyment in the journey! Mainly due to the incredible visuals and the chance to explore Pandora from a first-person perspective. If you're an Avatar enthusiast or just looking for a game to show off your console’s power, it's worth checking out. Just don’t expect much beyond the surface. By the end, I was more than ready to leave the Pandora behind.

Ironheart isn’t just a bad Marvel show, it’s a case study in how not to write a lead character. For a series about a brilliant young woman in a suit of armor, it’s stunning how little heart there is beneath the surface.

Christ, I feel like I must have missed a prequel film that explains how the robots were treated, how the revolt and war went. Zero connection to any of the characters, Mr Penut and Dr glasses??? inspired Best thing about the film was reading the reviews afterwards, skip!

This game was supposed to be a throwaway title, I downloaded it on games pass simply to fill some time, expecting to play it for an hour or so... 2 days 17 hours and 56 minutes later I've finally finished it, and honestly it's one of the best games I've ever played. I'm not a fan of survival games but this is just something else, it had me gripped from the very begining right through to them end, I have never been so invested in a game world as I have in Subnautica. Everything from the atmosphere, to the visuals and sound, even the story was so perfectly done to the point where when I had finished the game, it genuinely left me speechless There's a reason you'll struggle to find negative reviews of this game, if you're thinking about buying Subnautica I urge you to, you won't regret it!

How an earth they managed to keep iron man fresh after 2 films and multiple appreences in the Avengers and other films in the MCU so far. This is how you do a sequel without affecting the surrounding Avengers universe while also upping the stakes and keeping it personal to Tony stark as a character!

Easily the best Avengers film yet, arguably the best film in the MCU

Brilliant, Avengers infinity war part 2, falls slightly short of the infinity war, but the spectacular finale included almost everyone that played even a small part in the MCU up to this point A seriously impactful start and ending really hammers home how good this final episode of the infinity saga is

Did you like thor Ragnarock? Well here it is again ... but worse, proof that lightning doesn't always strike twice, the films full of reused gags from previous films that just don't work, add into it a weaker cast (ie no loki) and it all seems a bit forced Again it's fine but really doesn't offer too kuchen to the MCU, like most films after the finale of Endgame
