The Batman: Spoiler Free Review.

   As the weekend has now passed, we sit with most likely over thousands of Batman reviews, and another review appears from the shadows. Just kidding, I write this review from the comfort of my living room. But when we saw this movie at our local theater it was a packed house. Full of fans and most likely youtuber movie critics covered in batman attire, it was a fun night to watch a new Batman rise, and I will tell you this. This movie was most definitely delivered.  From the atmosphere, the music, the action, the suspense, the characters, the direction, the grimness, and, of course, The Batman.

 

The Batman

When it was first announced that Robert Pattinson was playing Batman, I didn’t really know much about his previous work. I never watched the Twilight movies, not that I was hating on them. I just didn’t have an interest in watching, but overall, from what everybody told me about his acting, he is a really great actor and his performance as a more menacing and reckless Batman he did a very great job and cant wait to see what has for the future.

Jim Gordan

  The Premise. Gotham City on a cold halloween night is caught off guard by murder of a power official in Gotham city. A man leaves a calling card with a riddle inside for a two year veteran Batman. Jim Gordan needs his help to help solve these murders and riddles, but the rest of the police force does not trust Vigilante. While Batman struggles with the Riddler murders a young Bruce Wayne struggle stuggles with family secrets that come out. Now, Bruce Wayne must overcome the demons and face the challenges, but he also needs the aid of Selena Kyle, Aka Catwoman, while he faces other enemies like Oswald Cobbelpot and Carmine Falcone.

Catwoman

I got to say for me personally that this was my favorite catwoman that I have ever seen on the big screen. She was very strong, slick, and loved her look, and I must admit I have a big crush on Zoe Kravitz, so I was already sold when she announced to play Catwoman and I hope at some point she gets her own spinoff. She definitely deserves it, in my opinion. Then theres

The penguin

This was my favorite overall character in the movie, and it’s incredible how they turned Collin Farrell into the Penguin. I still can not reconize him when I look into the picture. He was brash, had some funny lines, and this was the penguin i always wanted to see. I know everybody loves Danny Devitos penguin, but for this, Penguin blows Batman Retuns penguin out of the water for me and can not wait to see Hbo max series.

The tone of this movie was incredible; it was very dark and grim. It almost gave me a feel.of the first Tim Burton movie while the music blended in with Nirvana gave me a Batman Returns vibe. Also, Matt Reeves direction gives this movie a slight horror tone the movie.

The Riddler

I loved this Riddler; he was scary, his voice, his riddles, and his presence was so creepy and fit perfectly to the movie. We all love Jim Carrey as the Riddler, but this character was in a desperate need of an upgrade, and we definitely got that for this character.

Overall Grade A+

This movie was a masterpiece for me and can not wait for a sequel. Now, am I going to say this was the best Batman movie? I am not ready to give it that crown, but with a test of time, more.views and may just become that. Now, even if you do not agree with this review, at least we can all agree on one thing. This movie is for sure better than Batman and Robin. But all jokes aside, I loved this movie, and I want to watch again, but I do not want to sit for that long again. Tell me what you thought about the movie. Your likes and dislikes. What do you want to see for a sequel, and what characters do you want to see join this new Batman universe? But thank you so much for taking your time to read this review and until next be safe and much love to my followers and readers. Have a great day.

  

Cobra Kai Season 4 review.

Best season yet?

  Season 4 had everything you can imagine, twists and turns, rivalries, great fights, pranks, revenge and great villains. I ended up binging the latest season and now i am just waiting impatiently for season 5. Is this the best season? I don’t know what the rest of the public thinks but for me this was the best season for me. It starts off amazing and ends amazing and that is the best way to do any TV show or movie. Let me first start off i watched the movies growing up as a kid, it wasn’t my favorite film franchise but i enjoyed them. But this series is just way too good and i can not stand teens or kids lol, they get on my nerves jk. But first and for most its great to see one of my favorite characters from the series

The return of Terry Silver

  This master manipulator is a villain we defiantly deserve for the series. I love “John Kreese”, he is great in his own rights but Terry Silver brings a whole different type of villainous energy that i can not get enough of. This is my guy and can not wait what to see what he does next in season 5. And but my boy Silver has another new challenger waiting for him and ill give you a hint, he is just as dangerous and deadly and he looms ready.

Eagle Fang/Miyagi-Doh

I can’t get enough of these two going back and forth. When they are not beefing and bickering each other, they do end up helping each other. Teaching their philosophies and beliefs when it comes to fighting and that was really cool to see. “Johnny Lawrence” with his strike first methods and “Daniel Larusso’s” defense strategy ends up working for them later in the series. Both believe their method is better then the others method, their beliefs gets in the way of the ultimate goal. Winning The “All Valley Karate Tourmanemt” But overall this rivalry ends up getting the best of the alliance causing the dojo to go their separate ways.

Fallen hero?

A lot of pressure falls on the kids on both sides but for me seeing Miguel as his positive self bummed me out. He’s always been my favorite character next to Johnny and too see his character come back from a devastating injury to once again question himself and then making a shocking decision at the end makes me wonder, is this the last we see Miguel fight? If it is well he had a great run but who are we kidding, my boy will be back. (I hope). A lot of growth from the kids, some have grown wiser while some have grown more dangerous, some have grown to do the right thing. New leaders and new cobra Kai’s has made this show grow as well and continue to get better and better.

Overall grade, i am going to give this season a solid A. It was fun, funny, intense, the tournament had me at the edge of my seat, literally and i can not wait for season 5. If you haven’t watched this show yet i recommend giving it a chance. You will not be disappointed unless you hate teens then this will not be for you. Tell me what you like or love about the show. Who is your favorite character, favorite fight or scene but. Hope you enjoy the review but most of all hope you enjoy the show. Until next time be safe and enjoy.

The Suicide Squad review. Non spoilers

   I remember a couple of months ago when I first saw the first trailer for this movie I didn’t see too much to it except for the forced comedy and the over the top jokes and the blood and guts being shown off. It looked cool but I didn’t have much stock into the movie. To me it looked like a Rated R version to “Guardians of The Galaxy”. Also to ad i at this point from all the backstage news I read about Warner Bros and Zack snyders Justice league not continuing, I didn’t care anymore. As a long time dc fan and a fan of Dceu, for the first time I wasnt invested in watching a dc movie. My girlfriend on the other hand did have interest which suprised me because she doesn’t really care for the super hero genre.

THE SUICIDE SQUAD

To my suprise my girlfriend and I ended up loving. It was a lot of fun and not as much forced comedy like I thought there would be. There was a little but I think that is the style of James Gunn. I got hooked pretty quick into the movie and it starts off pretty fast. The style of it is pretty clever and the movie overall takes a lot of chances that pay off.

The team

The new team is led by newcomer “Bloodsport” played by (Idris Elba aka Stringer Bell) is great in this. He does a great job as a bitter and angry now I don’t know much about this character background but he does has a pretty impressive background with taking out the man of steel himself. He leads the team of “Peacemaker” played by (John Cena) who does a great job in the movie. Along side with “Rat Catcher 2″ played by (Daniela Melchior). King Shark” played by the great (Slyvester Stallone). And “Poka-dot man” played by (David Dastmalchian) who ended up being my favorite out of the team. Harley Quinn and Rick Flag also return along with Amanda Waller

A first team is sent out on a mission and well things do not go as well and a second team must go in and save the day but what they find during the course of the mission, lets just say this mission will be more of a suicide mission when they have to battle a large Star fish from outer space.

The classic Villian

In my opinion the trailers did not do this movie justice. I ended up liking this one alot nore then the orginal and I want to note I actually liked the first one but this one was much funner to watch and this one takes alot of risks that I like. The action was on point, in fact I even liked it so much that I watched it twice last weekend. The small easter eggs were all over the place and even though I am not the biggest fan of the director I do hope he continues the suicide squad.

So if you are looking for a great action packed, blood splattering comic book film then this is the one for you. Over two hours of all that you forget the movie is pretty long. So if you need something to watch then this is it and enjoyed. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did and hope you safe and great. weekend

Binge watch weekend

To all my my fellow nerds, fans of great animation and superhero content do I have a special gem for you to watch this weekend. If you are looking for something new to watch with great brutal action, something that you can somewhat enjoy a chuckle or two and get lost in a great story and listen to a great voice cast well your in luck. A comic book series that has been around since the early 2000s and is now getting its own show on Amazon Prime, I present to you

The premise: 17 year old Mark Greyson(voiced by the talented Steven Yeun) is not your average, sure to his friends he is your average teenager going to highschool and going through the issues that every teen would but behind closed doors he is the son to the most powerful superhero in the world “Omni-Man”. Voiced by the very talented (J. K. Simmons). As the world is full of turmoil, super villians and the epic loss of “Guardians of The Globe” the world is at a loss and now Mark Greyson who starts developing his powers knows that its time to step and become a superhero who is being trained by his father Onmi Man himself. He now becomes “Invincible”. As he trains he goes on adventures along with other superhero’s. As time as hero goes on it also casuses issues in his social life as a highschooler. Also something is very off about his father.

Overall I loves this show and I hope there will be a season 2. Now be warned to parents around my age with young kids. This defiantly not a show for the young ones but if you are a parent that allows young kids to watch content like this well you’re cool in my book. There is alot of blood and guts in this. The death toll is up there but if that is your thing then this show is for you. But there to this show then just action. The show and comic book honors the traditon of comic book storytelling. The chemistry between the characters is on point and the animation is just beautiful.

There is alot of great adult humor that is not forced. This isnt your Mcu formula show so dont expect a joke the end of every fight scene. The voicing talent is incredible. You got to love J.K. Simmons as Omni- Man, he knocks it out of the park in my opinion. The show has so much going on for it, I hope it continues for years and if you are a fan of this show, I say thank you and the reason why I say that is the more support it gets then we will get more seasons. Now I don’t know much about the history of this character or story but I am going to give it a shot and learn more.

The villians are amazing on this, but the main one, well if you havent watched it yet I am not going to be the one to spoil it but you find out real early.

Overall grade I give this show a 10/10. I have no complaints except for when I had to wait a week for the next episode but thats okay because now all 8 episodes are out for your enjoyment. So if you have no plans this upcoming weekend and need something to watch then give Invincible a shot. And if you are dissapointed then you have no pulse. I am just joking but please enjoy and have a great and safe weekend.

Binge Watch Weekend.

  Good morning today is the first for my blog. Every friday i will recommend a show to check out if you are stuck at home for the weekend. If you are one of those people who binge shows at rapid fire pace or just like to take your time and enjoy the show when you actually get the time due to a busy schedule. Well today i have a very highly recommended show and this show will not dissapoint if you are into brutal action, historic events, great story, great acting and overall just being glued to the screen. Well the show is called

   As a life long fan of martial arts and also into historic shows, this was a dynamic i could not turn off. One episode with the wife every night after a long day made our evening complete. The show is based off the late great Bruce Lee before his passing. 

  The premise: A young chinese by the name of Ah Sahm (played by Andrew Koji) man travels the across the seas to San Francisco, CA in the late 1800s in order find his sister and also to escape a life that he really had no choice but to escape. When he makes it to San Francisco, well things do not turn out the way he really wanted. Dealing with gangsters, rascism, cops, and a differnt world that is not very accepting of him and his people. Chinatown becomes his home that he has to go through various battles, adventures.

  The cast is amazing overall with Jason Tobin playing the young hot headed gangster playing (young Jun). Joe Taslim from “The Raid” and “The swordsmen” plays the wise but deadly (Li Yong). And many more great actors and characters fill this show with awesome entertainment. Andrew Koji seems to channel the energy and Bruce Lee in his character very well, from his attitude, fighting style, his energy, and his intensity in the heat of the fight scenes along with his swagger and confidence.

And to all the readers and fans of this show, if you have not heard, WE ARE GETTING A THIRD SEASON!!! on Hbo Max. Do not when it is coming out but all i know is those petitons finally paid off. Overall score i give the show a ten out of ten. Most entertaining show out there next to “Invincible”. I hope you enjoy the show and if you are not a martial arts fan there is other elimantes to this show that i think will help you keep your interest. So have this weekend and enjoy the show. Be safe and have fun my friends.

MORTAL KOMBAT REVIEW spoiler free

Orginally i wasnt going to do a review of this movie but i remembered that this was orginally going to be a geek culture blog before i seen all the toxicness that comes with it. Since i have always been a die hard fan of mortal kombat since i was 6 years old. Too me this movie did not dissapoint me at all. Ive heard the negative reviews and from youtubers and other social media sites and thats okay. Me personsally i loved it. I had some issues with it but i am not much of a nitpicker when it comes to movies. This one was really fun, loved the bloodshed and the action. I loved the easter eggs and i love the set up to the next movies (i got my fingers crossed). I know i will catch some flack for this review but whatever.

It was great to watch it from the comfort of my own since theaters are still not open in my town. Overall the action was great, the story was kind of short but i can understand why even though i wish it was longer. The story had some changes from the original lore like the way the fighters were chosen for the tournament and the addition of “Cole Young” (which i was a fan of).

The characters were cool to see come alive again especially my boy Kung Lao. “Sub Zero” reminded me alot of “Michae Myers” in some scenes which i thought was incredible. I enjoyed seeing another one of my favorites Kabal get some screen time. “Kano” who i was never really a fan of may have actually been my favorite in the movie. I enjoyed the new “Shang Tsung” and Raiden as well. “Jax” did the damn thing and sonya was spot on. For the dissapointment in some of the characters like General Reiko who i have been a huge fan of since his debut in MK4, well he was kind of just there lol but what can you do? Now for the new character “Cole Young”. I enjoyed him alot and also i was happy the continued the traditon of adding a new character like they have always done in every game that has came out. Also always been a huge fan of Lewis Tan since seeing him in “Iron Fist” and “Into The Bad Lands”. He brought some heart into the film and i hope to see more of him in the future sequel films. No johnny cage was not a issue for ne since i have never really been a fan of him but im sure we may see him in future films as well. I enjoyed the performances overall and it was great to see Joe Taslim as sub zero go up against Hiroyuki Sanada as Scorpion (my all time favorite mk character). Ludi Lin was amazing as “Liu Kang”as well.

We also should remember that this is pre tourmaent time so dont expect the much honor among the villans in this film even though they dont really have honor in the video games either. The story goes really fast kind of how the first games were especially when there was no pause button in the first two games.

Overall i had alot of fun, so much fun i watched it twice. I hope for alot of success for this movie where maybe another movie studio will take chance with another great fighting games series that i have loved since i was 3 years old. “Street Fighter”. One can only hope. Overall for a MK movie i give it a 9/10 just wish it was longer and the editing could use some work imo. For a overall movie i give it a 8.5/10. Keep in my mind i am not a vert strict critic, i dont really watch movies to really critique them for a youtube page but i do plan on starting to give viewers some movie suggestions in future and focus more on the geek culture again just for fun. As for theories well i have a few but i dont want to spoil much for the readers just in case you if people not watched it yet.

I can understand people’s complaints about the movie but at the end the issues dont bother me that much as long it doesnt take away my fun from the movie. Im not going to compare it to the 95 film since times have changed so much and both have their differences and both are great in their own rights. Now if you dissagree i am totally fine with but lets remember to keep it respectful. I have seen the toxic and over the top debats that go online about this topic.
