Spider-Man: No Way Home



   Spider-Man in the MCU has always been a mixed bag for me, I loved his introduction in civil war, didn’t enjoy his first solo film that much, hated Far From Home but, with the hype surrounding this film, I had to go see it myself before the very annoying trolls spoilt it for me. This review is spoiler free and I’ll mostly be talking about what we already saw from the trailers thus far.

After his battle with Mysterio at the end of Far From Home, Peter Parker’s identity has been revealed to the world and he must now find a way to navigate through life as a framed hero in the eyes of the public. This leads him to request help from Doctor Strange so he can make the world forget he’s Spider-Man. During the process of casting the spell, Peter interrupts Strange and botches it completely which then leads to villains from other realities who know Spider-Man to come through into the world of the marvel cinematic universe. 

We get to see a lot of villains from the old Spider-Man films come through and Peter finds a way (with help of Strange and his friends) to stop them. Strange then reveals to Peter that these villains all die and that he’ll be sending them to the point in time which they do and this doesn’t sit well with Peter. The two battle it out and the aftermath leads to things Peter would never expect. 

I really enjoyed the experience even though the film isn’t perfect or super cohesive. They’re some weird stuff in it but I feel for the most part, they knock it out of the park. No Way Home is a very interesting film. I have to commend how it found a way to make all the easter  eggs and references weave into the story rather than just be there for the sake of it. They were moments where the usual forced humor was dragged on too long and most of the villains are kind of reimagined in order to fit more in this universe. When this film is seen by every one, they’ll be conversations about it for decades, they’re so many moments that you can’t help but smile about and scream to. For any Spidey fan, some of the things you’ll see here will feel like things of dreams.

If you’re looking for something entertaining to watch you’ll not be disappointed but, I must say this, if you’re looking for something as good as Spider-Man 2 or The Amazing Spider-Man, you may not love this film. I can’t lie, the fan boy in me was entertained thoroughly but, the wannabe critic had some issues and  moments of cringe through out the film.



At its core, No Way Home is really just over two hours of fan service but, who are we if not fans? Go see it and tell me what you thought about it if you have already in the comments. Don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe!

Who Would Win? Batman Vs Spiderman

Okay before I start I'd like you all to know I am not being partial in any way at all. I had this argument with my friend Andrea a couple of days back and now I feel like sharing on who I think would win,but I realised they are two perspective 1-choosing a winner based on accomplishment 2-choosing a winner based on powers or strengths 1- this perspective is basically saying "oh look at this let's check out both characters accomplishments",they both have taken down a large amount of enemies ranging from smart villains to dumb ones,they've both faced foes that are big and strong. So it's only reasonable to think Batman would win here,not by a long shot though because Spiderman is a force to be reckoned with. Batman has basically done more important things,he has defeated Superman severally,dodged darkseid's omega beams,outsmarted braniac,I mean the man is a bit fluent in kryptonian and he knows several martial art skills and he's just a human......

KOE NO KATACHI: A REVIEW?

  Koe no Katachi (A Silent Voice) is a 2016 Japanese [obviously] animated film written by Reiko Yoshida and directed by Naoko Yamada. The film is based on the manga of the same name, written by the great Yoshitoki Ōima. I just want to talk  type about this beautiful anime; don't think of this as some sort of review. P.S.: Little spoilers here and there. It starts off with Ishida - who'd later be the main male character - trying to commit suicide. And may I say... the musical build-up to the point where he is to jump off the bridge... SUBARASHI! It's utterly gorgeous [for the lack of a befitting word]. It's not over done with sad sounds or large synths. It's almost inaudible, gentle; it's the kind of music that would play in the head of a sad or depressed person. And it is explained in detail - his dilemma.  The movie's title makes sense because of Nishimiya. She's deaf. In middle school, she's a victim of bullying from her classmates in form of ignor...

Rebuilding The DCEU

      Hello again,it is....Barney the DC fan who loved BVS and MOS but didn't enjoy JL. A friend of mine told me I stopped talking about DC and he was right. You're probably wondering about why  I stopped talking about DC. Well the answer is simple as ABC,THEY MESSED UP!. Technically it was warner bros who messed up but still justice league is  a movie under the DC brand so....it's a DC film.    Justice League was meant to be the finale to a beautiful and well layered/deep series of movies. It was meant to be the proper end of Superman's journey from Man of Steel but instead it became a short,eye candy based pop corn flick with little or no rewatch value at all. I know a lot of people reading this might not agree with me because they hated the prior DC films for being too "dark" and "depressing" and I totally get their point of view. One of the reasons why I didn't like Justice League was because after I watched it I was like "...

The Boys

   The Boys is a new Amazon prime television series that asks and brilliantly answers the question "how would superheroes be in the real world?".   In this version of modern America, a lot of people have super human abilities and are known as Supes. Supes are generally loved and respected, thanks to the superhero team "The Seven".  The first moments of the show starts of as a parody of stereotypical superhero films and shows. At first glance, the heroes just seem to be a parody of the justice league. With Wonder woman being Maeve, Flash being A-Train,Aquaman being the Deep, Batman being Noir, I'm not exactly sure who Translucent, a retired member I can't remember  and Superman being Homelander. We see how the general public loves and idolize these heroes. But, the thing about Superheroes being in the real world is, they come with collateral damage.  Hughie an ordinary guy and massive fan of the seven gets his life turned upside down wh...
