Angry
Birds 2 (U) – what’s it
about? The Birds and Pigs must put aside their differences and team up against
the Eagles who are hellbent on destroying their islands.
I thought I’d go see this as
I found the first one amusing. This is very much along the same lines as the
first one so if you enjoyed the shenanigans of the Birds and Pigs last time
then this one will be right up your street. It has some good humour in it –
some that the kids will laugh at and some for the adults to laugh at. It has a
little bit of story thrown in, its one of those easy watch cartoons so don’t
expect anything too complex, it has a bit of cartoon action too so it’s pretty
much fun for all the family. Yeah it’s a good film, its not amazing but entertaining
enough to pass the time and give a giggle.

Fast
& Furious: Hobbs & Shaw (12A)
– what’s it about? Hobbs and Shaw are forced to join forces and stop the bad
guys from releasing a virus on the world.
I’m not a Fast &
Furious fan but I’ve been to see most of them as a friend really likes them,
but I am a fan of Jason Statham films. All his films are usually completely
unbelievable action movies but fun to watch and this even though a spin off is
more of an action flick than a flash car flick. Its full of the usual which you
expect from an action movie – lots of fighting, violence, guns, explosions and
the obligatory car chases. If you want to watch a movie that is in any way
believable this won’t be for you but if you want to watch a good action film
that you can leave you brain at the door then totally look this one up. Just to
note it is a spin off, but you don’t need to have watched all the Fast and the
Furious movies to get it, as its pretty standalone.

Green
Lantern (DVD – 12) –
what’s it about? After the death of a Green Lantern a new one is chosen to take
his place, a human from earth.
I think I saw this when it
first come out so its been a few years now, and I have to say its aged pretty
badly, the aliens and other worlds are quite dated now so it just looks a bit
cheap but the stuff on earth is pretty good still. If you’d like a bit of a bad
superhero movie then this is worth checking out, just don’t expect it to be as
high quality as some of the more modern comic book flicks. Its still a good
movie, it’s just not amazing, it does have its moments that kept me engrossed as
it does have a bit of action and some bits that made me laugh and smile.

The
Green Hornet (DVD – 12)
– what’s it about? After the death of his father, Brit teams up with Kato to
become the Green Hornet.
With this one expect more
ham than a ham sandwich, yep this is a bit of a cheesy comedy based on the
comic and tv series of the same name. It’s done by Seth Rogen so if you like
his stuff then you will probably find this amusing, some is a little
inappropriate but it’s not all really bad like some of his other films, its
mainly corny so it’s really amusing. Yeah don’t expect a serious film with this
one otherwise you’ll be disappointed, yep it’s a fun watch. I want to really
give it 3 ½ stars really because it did make me giggle a lot but it’s
definitely one of those that you need to be in the right mood for.
