Man of Steel

YAY

Superman is back!
Henry Cavill is easily the best Superman since Christopher Reeve
Visual effects are extraordinarily detailed
Kevin Costner is perfect as Pa Kent (for as long as he's in it!)
You have never seen a Superman story played out like this
Krypton is visually stunning
All of the rumours about the movie were bullshit!
Amy Adams as Lois Lane was perfect
Russell Crow is awesome and is in it a lot more than you might think

 
MEH

The movies pacing is going to be a big talking point with fans. (some will love it, some will hate it)
Michael Shannon is Meh as Zod
Some interesting character choices, I'm not sure If I like yet or not.
This movie just didn't know what to do with Perry White

BOO


If you want to see Clark Kent's early years just watch the trailer
Some moments with Clark and Jonathan Kent fell very flat
Some scenes are absolutely pointless!
Save ya self some money and go see it in 2D rather than the piss poor 3D

VERDICT

 SUPER YAY!

Hannibal: "Entrée"

YAY!

Strong performances from EVERYONE in the episode.
Eddie Izzard must have sold his soul to the devil to be that good in everything he does.
Will Gratham doesn't just look at something and solve it as easy as that in this episode
We begin to see the real Hannibal
"The Following: an FBI agent must track down army of seriel killers = BULLSHIT!" "Hannibal: an FBI agent must track down army of seriel killers = spot on description!"
Great connections to Silence of the Lambs and Red Dragon

MEH!

I'm starting to wonder if Hannibal is running a psychiatrist pratice or a restaurant. 

BOO!

After 5 episodes I honestly can not think of a single thing to boo this show over. except maby Mads Mikkelsen's accent can be very strong and hard to understand at times.

VERDICT

YAY!

Iron Man 3

YAY!

Downey Jr is perfect as always
Action sequences are incredible
Great performance from Guy Pearce
Some vintage Shane Black dialogue
Ben Kingsley's Mandarin performance is something special
END OF CREDITS SCENE. AWESOME!

MEH!

The plot is all over the place!
Why do almost all Shane Black movies take place at Christmas?
Don Cheadle's James ‘Rhodey’ Rhodes clearly doesn't give a crap about Tony.
Shane Black clearly didn't want to include any Avengers in his Iron Man
There is a mid movie twist that is either unbelievably awesome of  simply ridiculous (I haven't decided!)

BOO!

The beginning is mind numbingly boring for an action movie
Either Tony Stark is a terrible mechanic or he's been using cheap Asian parts, because I can't believe how many Iron Man suits malfunction in this movie
Ben Kingsley's Mandarin performance (This isn't a mistake. It will make sense after you've seen the movie!)

 

VERDICT

MEH!

(But still WAAAYYYY better than Iron Man 2!)

Dead Island: Riptide

FORMAT: XBOX 360, PLAYSTATION 3, PC

YAY!

If you loved Dead Island then you'll love Riptide
Same addictive upgrade system
Same great arcade feel

MEH!

If you thought Dead Island was OK then you'll think Riptide is OK
Flat characters
Some very dodgy dialogue 

BOO!

If you hated Dead Island then you'll hate Riptide 
Huge plot holes from Dead Island to Riptide (but you're not going to play this for the story)

VERDICT

MEH!

The Bates Motel "The Man In Number 9"

 

YAY!

 

Despite the Boos below, the show still feels excellently structured 

The man in number 9 is another great character added

MEH!

There are only 3 episodes left and they are introducing new characters.

Normans psychosis is getting a little muddled

Norma really needs to wake up to the dangers around her

This episode felt like a season 2 opener

BOO!

The whole plot of the last 7 weeks was very lazily wrapped up in the first 5 minutes.

Why the f#@k did they do that to the dog!

VERDICT!

MEH!

Injustice: Gods Among Us

FORMAT:  XBOX 360 PLAYSTATION 3 Wii U

YAY!

Everything you could ever need from a DC video game
Fast paced action
Easy to learn combo's
Great S.T.A.R LABS side missions
Responsive controls
A huge cast of characters

MEH!

Graphics go from gorgous to meh in a single frame

BOO!

Nothing really new if you have played the latest Mortal Kombat
The story feels very flat in places

VERDICT!

YAY!

Wrestlemania 29

YAY!

The Undertaker/Punk entrances were fantastic!

The Undertaker/Punk match was even better!

The Shield (and by this I mean Dean Ambrose) showed they truly are the next big thing

Triple H Vs. Brock Lesnar had it's good moments

MEH!

Triple H Vs. Brock Lesnar also had it's almighty crap moments

I can't belittle the Mark Henry Vs. Ryback as it was exactly the way I believe most thought it would be. This was a pre-show match that should have been replaced by The Miz Vs. Wade Barrett

Wrestlemania proved that Daniel Bryan and Dolph Ziggler need a solo feud now.

Chris Jericho Vs. Fandango was a decent match that showed Fandango does have in-ring talent

Jack Swagger Vs. Alberto Del Rio was a decent bout

BOO!

The Rock Vs. John Cena was pointless (and a little boring) and did nothing to progress any feud.

The ending was overly cheesy and just not convincing

VERDICT

MEH!
