Tom Cruise (Top Gun, Minority Report) is back for the 6th instalment in one of his most beloved franchises, Mission: Impossible. The franchise that started out in 1996 and has been going on since with each film trying to make itself bigger and better than its predecessor. And now this new film Mission: Impossible Fallout (2018, Christopher McQuarrie) is set to be the biggest one yet! For the first time in the Series' history, the director from the previous film has returned to helm the sequel, which is really good as Rogue Nation (2015, Christopher McQuarrie)  more or less found the right tone for the series in that film. First Thoughts This film is perhaps the best action film of 2018! Yeah! I'm calling it! The action is exciting and intense, the acting is really good and the story is really suspenseful. This was possibly one of the most adrenaline-fueled experiences I've ever had at the cinema. With every scene having nail-biting stakes. Ethan Hunt/Tom Crui...

So the Overall Opening Weekend Box Office haul has come in for Justice League (2017)  and is, unfortunately, the lowest Opening numbers for a DCEU film. Opening at $96 Million in the U.S. $14 million short of predictions, and the first DCEU film to not gross over $100 Million in its opening weekend domestically. However, It's not a failure. These are only the domestic numbers. Globally, the film has earned $285 Million, which puts it in a good place. And, with the B+ CinemaScore, heavy praise from fans and the Thanksgiving weekend coming up Justice League  can still turn a sizeable profit. The only issue is that it wasn't as big a splash as Warner Bros. was hoping it to be.  Because of this, the company may be a bit concerned with the future of the DCEU and so, they'll have to review the entire property. Look at what's working in the films and what's not. And so I've decided to come up with a list of things that Warner Bros should look into in terms of the DC...

In 2013 DC and Zack Snyder started the DCEU with Man Of Steel (2013) . Kicking off a 3-part story arc for Superman (Henry Cavill)  and the expansion of the world of DC. Being continued with Batman V. Superman: Dawn Of Justice (2016)  and now is coming full circle with Justice League   (2017) . The DCEU has had something of a shaky existence, with critics being quite harsh on the majority of the films, and fans were divided on the quality of them. Although, with  Wonder Woman (2017)  becoming the most critically acclaimed Superhero movie, and the highest grossing Origin film of all time, it seems that DC's relationship with the critics might be changing. However, Justice League has had its fair share of drama behind the scenes, with director Zack Snyder (Watchmen, 300)  having to step down before reshoots due to an unfortunate family tragedy and Joss Whedon (Serenity, The Avengers) stepping in to finish production, it should be interesting how the two dif...

So Warner Bros. Has just dropped the latest trailer for, arguably, their biggest film of the year, Justice League (2017) . In the past week, the promo team for this film has been stepping up their game. With two sets of posters for the main team, that look fantastic, and now audiences have been treated to this new trailer. But what makes this trailer different from the others that come before it? Initial Thoughts This is a damn good trailer! It has emotion, action and great character moments! What separates this from the previous trailers is that, whilst they leaned heavily on the action and presented in a flashy, adrenaline-fueled trailer, this trailer is more of a slow burner. Allowing viewers to take in the visual spectacle and the emotional, and funny, character moments. Here are the top 5 highlights in this trailer. But, before you read the rest of this post, here is the trailer itself for you to watch. 1. Lois & Clark Clark and Lois reunited in her dreams...

For this blog I'm starting a new thing called Weekly Movie Updates, where I highlight 5 movie headlines that came out in the week and discuss them. I can't promise that I'd be able to do this every week but I will do my best to do so. 1. Jared Leto cast in Blade Runner 2 The sequel to the iconic 1982 movie has cast Jared Leto. Whilst it hasn't been clarified as to the type of role that Leto will be playing it is most likely that he'll be playing a replicant (Robots that look like people). The reason I think this is because Leto's charisma, especially after playing the Joker, would be better suited for that kind of character. If you've ever seen the original Blade Runner then you'll know about the main antogonist, Roy Batty (Rutger Hauer), who embodied the ideals of rebellion with his punk look and inhuman characteristics. Whilst also expressing an attitude of self determination. Something that Leto could do a great job of embodying those charact...
