Thor: the Shit Film more like.

First one had a modicum of charm but this sequel bored me to self-harm within 15 minutes.

Piss.
Actually, I thought the first one had more than a hint of gash about it too.
It was by no means good, but compared with the sequel it's Citizen fuckin' Kane.

It is a dreadful piece of shit.
:lol: :lol:

Beasts of no Nation.

Christ, who'd have thought a film about child soldiers would be so depressing?

Piss-taking aside, it is a powerful piece of film-making that doesn't shy away from depicting the utter horror of the plight of child soldiers in an African civil war.

The Avengers: Age of Ultron.

The latest in a seemingly endless line of identikit, cut-and-paste fodder from Marvel.
I don’t know how a film containing so many ‘superheroes’ doing weird & wonderful things could be boring, but it is.

It is the last one of these I’ll be roped into watching. :yawn:

Same thing happened with Iron Man. First one was very good - witty, sharp, great set pieces. But the rest of them were just overblown shite versions of the first one and nobody took the time to tell Robert Downey Jr to reign in the hammy acting. Appalling fucking shite. :roll:

Absolutely agree; Iron Man 2 is a pile of utter shit.

An absolute gashfart of a film.

You may be aware they then went and made Iron Man 3. And put Guy Pearce in it. Honestly. Guy Pearce. :roll: :|

An absolute rancid-tuna-stuffed-vagina of a movie.

Christ's excrement; I've actually watched that one too - I'd (mercifully) totally forgotten about it.

Some of the Marvel comics (from the 70s) were really quite good; but the films are money-grabbing, safety-first shit.

Deadpool is entertaining to a point - but eventually (after about 20 minutes) just becomes the usual boring big bangs, crashes, violence etc etc
