Black Panther (2018) Review
Jordan's Killmonger is one of the franchise's best villains. Production and costume design earned Academy Awards.
Genre: Superheroes (Page 2)
ActionGuardians of the Galaxy (2014) Review
1 soundtrack, the cosmic Marvel foundation. The 6.5 reflects honest evaluation of one of the more creatively committed Phase Two MCU entries and the film that introduced cosmic Marvel to mainstream audiences.
ActionGuardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017) Review
Kurt Russell's Ego, Yondu's affecting sacrifice, comedy density exceeding the original's balance, family themes as load-bearing foundation. The 6 reflects honest evaluation of a sequel that maintained the original's tonal commitment with diminishing returns and that increased the comedic density…
ActionSpider-Man: Homecoming (2017) Review
Tom Holland's age-appropriate Peter Parker, Michael Keaton's working-class Vulture, John Hughes-influenced high school direction. The 7 reflects honest evaluation of one of the better Phase Three MCU entries and the best Peter Parker since Tobey Maguire.
ActionSpider-Man: Far From Home (2019) Review
Jake Gyllenhaal's Mysterio, the European tour, the basketball court Blip gag that confirmed the franchise wouldn't engage with its own catastrophe. The 6 reflects honest evaluation of a competent Phase Three closing film that operates as the franchise's first major…
ActionSpider-Man: No Way Home (2021) Review
Spider-Man: No Way Home turns twenty years of Spider-Man films into one event. Three Peter Parkers, five returning villains, and an ending that costs the hero everything.
ActionThunderbolts (2025) Review
Florence Pugh's Yelena carries another film that fails. Mental health as decorative content.
ActionCaptain America: Brave New World (2025) Review
Sam Wilson's Captain America cannot inherit Steve Rogers's moral authority. Decorative political signaling.
ActionDeadpool & Wolverine (2024) Review
Hugh Jackman's nostalgia return at the cost of Logan's emotional finality. Wesley Snipes's Blade, the comic-source costume, and excessive snarkiness.
ActionBlack Panther: Wakanda Forever (2022) Review
The Chadwick Boseman tribute mishandled into incoherent narrative. Tenoch Huerta's Namor as genuine asset.
ActionDoctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022) Review
Sam Raimi brought specific horror-genre filmmaking sensibility to the production. Stephen Strange has been navigating the consequences of the multiverse opening that the Spider-Man: No Way Home spells produced.
ActionThor: Love and Thunder (2022) Review
The completion of Thor's degradation from Shakespearean prince to comedic buffoon. Mjolnir transfers to Jane Foster, Christian Bale's Gorr wasted.
