Film Review: Avengers: Endgame

It’s all been leading up to this, 11 years and more than 21 movies and it’s time for the Marvel Cinematic Universe to provide a conclusion to the Avengers saga and some of its Phase One heroes. The ones who ushered in a renaissance and resurgence of comic book superhero movies. Whodathunk that back in 2008 when Iron Man first hit the screens that Kevin Feige and Marvel Studios would soon build a universe of characters that would be so dearly beloved that saying goodbye would be so hard. Make no mistake, Avengers: Endgame, like its predecessor Avengers: Infinity War does not hold back. For the diehards this is both blatant fanservice but also a genuine farewell that will swell the emotions. Some MILD SPOILERS AHEAD but hopefully nothing too drastic so as to ruin your experience.

From the man that brought you La Femme Nikita, Leon: The Professional and The Fifth Element comes yet another stylised badass individual out to settle some scores whilst simultaneously attempting to advance humankind through a very thinly veiled pseudo-science and psychology subplot.

Film Review: Captain America: The Winter Soldier

With the Marvel Cinematic Universe now officially settling in to Phase 2 of its film franchises there has been a distinct trend of darker more intense storylines coming to the fore. The Avengersreally set a huge bar for them to try to match and the expectations are high. With Captain America: The Winter Soldier they have managed to fuse together a spy thriller with an action packed superhero movie and continued in the tradition of expanding upon their world with the introduction of new heroes and villains.
