Not a particularly exciting episode, it had its moments of it, but overall pretty bland.
Quick glimpse of how he escaped the Sarlac pit, and how he lost his armour, but really felt like a bland first episode (maybe because he was re-introduced in the Mandalorian, and he's was actually doing something?)
Seems to be the base of what's to come.
Damn did not see that coming. Way to start ending the show!
Fairly decent start, follows directly on from the last season, and sets up nicely for the future. We get our first glimpse of even more Fillory which should be exciting to watch reveal.
An episode primarily focused on Churchill and what an episode.
We learn more of Churchills past and the kind of man he thinks he is.
This episode certainly made me think there should be a Churchill series in the same format as The Crown. Of all the characters he is certainly the most intriguing and I think has the most to tell.
A perfect blend of action, comedy, adventure and what makes Star Trek, Star Trek.
As a trekkie I was not disapointed, it had me laughing, touched and captivated just like I was as a kid watching Star Trek.
Has been renamed to King Arthur: Legend of the Sword and the release date shifted to Spring 2017.
Based on a sampling of reactions to Star Trek Beyond, the general consensus seems to be that it’s a fun and exciting sci-fi blockbuster that falls in line with Star Trek: The Original Series – and largely improves upon what didn’t quite work in Star Trek Into Darkness.

This episode takes off only a small amount of time after the end of the 1st season. It was nice to see the cliff-hanger was the focus of the episode, mixed in with some classic Dutch bad-assery.
A great first episode, straight back into the Kill-joy.

It was an interesting first episode back, but probably one of the weakest so far. With Barry stumbling and mumbling deciding whether to reveal The Flash to her. It all ended up too late, which is a shame, as I liked Patty, and I think she was good for Barry. I see her coming back though and tying into Zoom, and Harrison being right.
The second plot was Wally West, who so far as proven to be a wasted character, hes a kid with a chip on his shoulder and Det. West is made to feel like the bad guy. Do something with him or send him back, he's doing nothing.
The Finest Hours, Disney’s (yes) old-school recreation of “the U.S. Coast Guard’s Most Daring Rescue” starring Chris Pine and Casey Affleck who portray the generations ingenuity and sensibilities as they are thrown into the usual genre tropes of unwavering disaster and relief.
The film is a parallel story of daring from Pine’s straight-shooting, small-town Coast Guard coxswain, Bernie Webber, and Affleck’s tanker engineer, Raymond Sybert, separately thrust into roles of authority amidst overwhelming danger. Although a man of few words, Affleck, makes his character the most interesting on screen.
The main premise of the story is on a February night, not one, but two oil tankers have been sheared in two. Most rescue teams have gone to one ship, when news of the seconds reaches Pendleton. The Chatham Coastguards new station boss Daniel Cluff (Eric Bana), orders Webber and a small crew into the storm on what is described the local fisherman as a suicide mission, but Webber, with something to prove to his past sets out.
The tanker sliced in two, and with little hope of survival, Sybert has become the captain of sorts to the surviving crew; although many are not keen to follow his orders. Like Webber, he is an outsider, his home is his ship. In one of the most interesting scenes Sybert responds to a shipmate who dismisses him for being a lonely man with no family, after saving his life, responds with the simple “I’ve got a life just the same as you”. Syberts side of the story is a series of ingenious ideas to help buy as much as time for someone, whoever might be out there, to rescue the him and the crew.
Most of the remaining story follows Webber battling through the storm, but the visuals are far from impressive, large waves in just a sea of blackness, but perhaps this is all you have of evidence of a storm at sea? The 3D adds further unnecessary darkness, and no real depth.
The film is a nice touch to the story and certainly an enjoyable watch, if only to wonder what could be next for Webber, and what brilliant idea Sybert might come up with next.
A solid 8/10 and a recommendation to see in 2D only.
Brand new trailer; this isn't just a little bit awesome at all is it?!

As a premiere it was ok, I am intrigued, but I certainly wasn't hooked which is disappointing given how much I was looking forward to it.
Revenant is all that it is cracked up to be; stunning visuals, fantastic score, and superb acting by many of the cast. Leo makes a standout performance, and is greatly supported by Tom Hardy and Domhnall.
Only thing that prevents me giving this 10 stars is the length and the repetition. The film seems longer than it needs to be and I found myself getting bored as Leo's character, Hugh, is constantly finding himself on the brink of death all the while making his way to what we can assume is civilisation. There are only 2 outspoken references for Leo's reason for carrying on, and these are blink and miss it moments. As well as a couple of plot points that leave you wondering how that outcome was reached.
Overall you will enjoy this at the cinema, not sure it's a take home on Blu-ray and re-watch kind of film, but it is certainly a film of 2016 you don't want to miss even if purely to marvel at the beauty of the setting.
This, I'm not sure, there is a lot of story, but you're expected to know the background of the characters and instantly know what's going on in their lives and the story as a whole. I think the pilot perhaps could have been done a little better, but the last 10 minutes more than made up for it and has kept me hooked for the second episode. With any luck this will really set up the season for me to keep watching it.
It was really Star Wars, as it should be, full of the old and the new, the light and the dark. What more could you ask for from the film of the year?
Intensely awesome show, as much as I wanted to binge-watch I resisted (somehow). It was so good in-fact the wife even watched it with me and commented it was unlike anything she had seen before. The acting, the script, all fantastic. Both Krysten Ritter, and David Tennant on screen separately were great, but together, awe-inspiring.
Certainly cannot wait for Season 2, whether that's before or after Defenders, there is certainly a lot more Jessica Jones left to tell!
Alison Brie and Jason Sudeikis are hilarious in this and with the supporting cast will have you laughing out loud almost all the way through.
Brilliantly shot (especially the single opening shot), and very bond like, but it feels flat. Lots of confusing, pointless and unresolved plot points that can leave you wondering what is really going on before your distracted with something blowing up. Villains were hollow and the rest of the characters were left further unexplored.
Enjoyable as a blu-ray, but not worth a trip to the cinema to view it.
Based on a true story, as told at the end. It has great potential, but it fails to follow up with the numerous sub-plots it just throws in to make up the two hours, and the main plot lacks real emotion. Sunday-night movie only.
Was expecting a great movie and it certainly delivered. It has all your classic Jurassic Park stories and some nice nods back to the past but it certainly stands on its two hind legs ;)
Dont go in expecting the same magic as Jurassic Park and you will enjoy the action and the funny moments fully.
Watched about ten minutes, was confused and just blasted with poor music, so gave up, there were just no instant hooks. Shame considering the good things I had heard.
Really enjoyed the first episode, a lot of mystery and really draws you in with all the questions. Nice to see Eureka again, even if they have made some changes. This show does feel a lot like "Persons Unknown" so will be interesting to see if it can outlast it, and address some of the mysteries a bit sooner so it doesn't just keep stringing you along.
awesome program, been desperately binge watching this to catch-up
This film is epic, you will not be disappointed at all.
