I can guarantee you that men and some women born in the 70's to 80's are actually humming "I Need a Hero" right now! Well I certainly am. From those who brought us 'Blood of Zeus' and 'Castlevania', both on Netflix, 'Masters of the Universe' will also be a Netflix situation brought to us by none other than Kevin Smith.
The 1980's was an explosive year for cartoons AND film and it has been extremely difficult to recreate content from that era. Macho men, some campiness here and there, but to recapture some of these top shows is difficult, unless you are able to have lived through that error and understand the modern day sensibilities along with storytelling and animation. This trailer looks like the team behind Kevin Smith has hit the nail on the head with this one. I get a Castlevania vibe for obvious reasons, but the fighting, the magic, the animation. We just need another trailer with some dialogue and we are in! This looks like it is going to be absolutely great. I guess it goes without saying, I was a fan of He-Man when I was younger, like a trillion others!

Emily Blunt is one of my favourite female actors right now. I cannot remember what I first saw her in, maybe Looper with Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Bruce Willis, but she was great in that. Another film she was great in was, Live. Die. Repeat and from that point, I knew I would pretty much love her in anything she is in. Of course I had seen the first A Quiet Place movie and I loved it. It took me a while before I saw it, but when I did and heard about the sequel, I was 100% down. But is this a good sequel? Yes, yes it is.
Picking up from the events of the last movie, the Abbott's family continue on their journey to look for other survivors. Evelyn travels with her deaf daughter, son and baby until they bump into another survivor. Now knowing how to incapacitate the creatures, Regan conjures up a plan to pass on her knowledge to others which means travelling to a radio tower to pass the frequency on to help weaponise it against the creatures.
There is nothing more I can really say about this movie without spoiling it, but I really enjoyed this movie. I loved how it started because I was not expecting it, but how it starts shows you exactly what you are getting into immediately. It's a crash course of what to expect. If you hadn't watched the first movie, the opening scenes scream at you that, no noise is to be made or you are pretty much dead. It's brilliant. There are scenes where we have a perspective and it is quiet, which bring us a contrast of action in silence which was really cool, very few films incorporate silent action into their movies.
As the movies goes on though, there is one or two bits I didn't like and wondered how something was possible or how someone knew something, etc, unless it was just instinct...but for the most part, I loved that they touched on the fact that, in a situation like this, outside your family unit or maybe even within your family unit, monsters can be anywhere and anyone and you cannot trust anybody. What makes life in this world difficult, is not to make any noise and that is where ALL of the tension is coming from. Can you imagine travelling to your local corner shop without make any noise? I guess it sounds simple until everything around you is quiet. It's like when you are creeping in the dead of night.
Whilst some might not like this movie because it doesn't do much different from the first movie, but you do get some progression with the Abbotts family and their story along with perspectives of other's in the same situation. I doubt you would hate the movie if you have seen the first movie, but if you do not like jump scares, this will not be the movie for you. If you did really enjoy the first movie, there is a chance you will love this one, although the movies does split the story between the characters, you are never not bored and kept at the edge of your seat. The acting is also excellent from every cast member and although the children have grown a little since, it really doesn't mess up the story or the feel of the characters. If John can get another on the way immediately , would be great!

Now this looks like a great all star cast, from Don Cheadle, Benicio del Toro, Ray Liotta, Jon Hamm and even David Harbour, Brandon Fraser and Bill Duke...I'm actually loving the line-up as well as this trailer as it looks really good. Very humorous is a black comedy type of way. Almost Wes Anderson-like.
A period crime thriller centred around a group of small-time criminals who are hired to babysit a man's wife and child whilst the husband is tasked to get some classified documents, then to go home to his wife and child who seem to be "held hostage"; what seemed as a simple job which goes awry with bounties on their heads and the cops trying to catch them, they realise they were stitched up.
From the director of the Ocean's "Trilogy", Contagion, Magic Mike & Logan Lucky, Steven Soderbergh has here, what seems to be a very entertaining film on his hands with one of the best lines I've heard in a while "The problem is, you're not smart enough to know how not smart you are, which makes you unpredictable". Brilliant!
