The LEGO Batman Movie Review - Will Arnett, Channing Tatum, Jonah Hill


The LEGO Batman Movie is the spin off from the original LEGO Movie it stars Will Arnett as Batman and co-stars Channing Tatum, Rosario Dawson and Jonah Hill. This is my movie review!

Batman is a crime fighting machine by night but lonesome bachelor by day, the LEGO Batman movie explores this side of him and his transition into family man all while trying to capture Gothams darkest criminals.

The LEGO Batman movie does well but falls a bit short of its predecessor The Lego Movie. It just doesn't have the magic of the first and scaling up the Batman cameos to a full film just didn't work for me. Bane was brilliant again as a cameo in this film and it was great to see the whole DC comic book universe represented in this film.

I found The LEGO Batman movie somewhat boring in parts and the forced humour did grate on me in the end.

Rings - Movie Review - starring Johnny Galecki, Alex Roe


Rings is the 3rd of the series spawned from the original "The Ring" back in 2002. This once again features Samara as the all conquering girl who crawls out of your telly.

This time round Julia (Matilda Anna Ingrid Lutz) and Holt (Alex Roe) have watched the dreaded film and have 7 days to work out how to stop the film spreading and ultimately stop themselves from being hunted down by Samara and killed.

Rings does tread a new path this time round although it keeps all the elements that made the original The Ring movie successful. The scares are frequent but also unsurprising, the tension high in some parts but ultimately this film treads over very worn ground and does nothing new to make us stand up and take notice. It is quite simply a pretty boring film bar the odd moments of tension and trepidation.

Johnny Galecki also features in the film but has a bit part to play and was clearly just picking up a quick pay check.

I think The Ring saga needs to be left alone now so we can reminisce from the first one and every time a new Ring film is made it tarnishes the good that came before it.

A distinctly average film for a series that is losing steam fast, such a shame.
