Been away for a bit where we up to?
Still not had the chance to see Ant-Man again so won't mark it yet, keeping and eye on it.
Cap A: Civil War
Tell me... how do you do 'Civil War' without 95% of the cast? No Pym, no FF, no mutants. You splice it into a Cap story. If you take out the Civil War crap and take the cap side of things and friend against friend, thing it still works. Zemo's motivations are not quite there, he's like gotta get revenge by making them angry at each other. Good job. But his inclusion or this version of his was a nice touch, it kept the film around Captain America instead of being Cap A film featuring Iron Man.
Spider-man was pointless in this. Tony might talk a bit game but think of this, he was concerned over putting people in harms way, his idea if to make it so they don't have to do this stuff (mentioned in Ultron and this film), right? And yet he is fine, after finding out Spider-man is a 16 year old kid taking him into battle with hardened soldiers who don't know his capabilities.
Eitherway, I enjoyed the film. Black Panther was better in this than his own film. :P
8/10
Dr Strange
They really have to stop being so scared of saying 'magic'. Wanda was basically turned into Jean Grey instead of hex-magic and probability and here is Dr Strange who used 'devices' to do things for him with special light shows, very few incantations but I guess he's learning.
The film was very good though, entertaining, well made, looked amazing at times. Sadly it feels like a 'filler', "We need to establish another gem." film, bogging it down with that stuff.
Also, both Ancient One's and Mordo's characters were quite departed from their original designs. Yet people only had an issue with the former, apparently. Found this strange.
7/10
Hmm, pie.
