#WeaponsMovie is a bloody ball of string tied up in carefully tangled knots. Exceptional cast and some genuine gut flinching moments that’ll keep you hooked until its absolutely batshit ending. Better than Barbarian. I can’t wait to see it again. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Expanding on the history of one of the MCU’s coolest areas #EyesofWakanda strangely reminded me of #PredatorKillerofKillers in all the best ways. Gorgeous to look at and surprisingly violent, a visit into this nation’s past is another reassuring sign about the MCU’s future. Get it watched.

Impossible missions I genuinely think Tom Cruise can't have accomplished:
- Correctly placed his item in the bagging area every time.
- Opened a Pringles tube and every one of them is intact.
- Not gone "weeee" when he's flown a plane really high.

Superman is on the way, but with Mission: Impossible The Final Reckoning, you'll believe a man can't die. The fuse might not be burning as bright as some might like for a franchise finale, but you tell that to the screen legend when he's dangling from a plane or becoming a literal Cruise missile.⭐️⭐️⭐️
