Guardians of The Galaxy:Volume 2

Poster via imdb.com
I'm not crazy about science fiction movies, but I liked the first installment of Guardians of The Galaxy. I particularly like Chris Pratt as Peter Quill and Bradley Cooper as Rocket, so I was a bit skeptical about the sequel because I know most sequels aren't as good as their first films. Just like the first one, James Gunn focuses on the theme of friendship and family with a bit of humor. This time, the story focuses on Peter Quill as he meets his long lost biological father Ego, played by the fantastic Kurt Russell. Peter feels like he finally knows what exactly happened to his father and why he left, only to realize that Ego is evil and only needs his genetics to be able to rule the world. Together with Gamora, Rocket, Drax, Mantis, Nebula and Yondu, they eventually defeat Ego.

The movie had great sound effects and CGI which I felt was a bit too colorful, like it was designed by little kids. The cast had fantastic chemistry and each of them played important roles in the story. Nebula and Yondu played larger roles than they did in the first one. Guardians of The Galaxy is fun, exciting and filled with a lot of action to keep you on the edge of your seat. The whole story with Ego was just plain weird and crazy, but fun to watch. I wouldn't say it was better than the first one, maybe just as good. James Gunn, who wrote and directed the first and second installments has been slated to work on the third movie both as the writer and director.

"Who Killed Julia Montague?"- Bodyguard Finale

BBC's Bodyguard has been one of the most satisfying series I've seen so far, this year. Over six episodes, they delivered a Limited Series that kept you on the edge of your seat and wondering what was next for Richard Madden's David Budd. David meets up with Julia's PA, Chanel, who was fired in the first episode because he was suspicious of her involvement in the bombings and he was right. She had a hand in it. Chanel set David up and he ended up getting ambushed and kidnapped by the leader of the criminal group, Luke Aitkens. The police are finally  able to piece the puzzle and they findd out that the ex-soldier who tried to shoot Julia was David's friend and this raises an alarm. They're convinced that Budd was indeed behind the bombing. Budd wakes up alone and realizes that he is strapped to a bomb vest with his thumb taped to the activating button. He is unaware that he is currently being investigated by the police and uses someone's phone to call for...

Goodbye Mike & Rachel- Suits' Seventh Season Finale Review

  Suits is one of my favorite Legal Drama's and for some reason, I'm still very invested in the show after 7 seasons. I don't think they've had any bad season and they've done such a great job with the growth and development of the major characters but the time to say goodbye to Mike and Rachel was finally here. Due to the fact that Meghan Markle would be getting married to Prince Harry, I guess it was a good time to wrap up her love story with Mike and they do this with the fairy tale wedding we've all been waiting for. Mike and Rachel have been an item since the first season and have been engaged since the fifth. They would have been married a season ago but were not able to because of Mike's time in prison. I always loved their chemistry and I was so sad to see them say goodbye and more than anything, I loved Mike and Harvey's relationship. It was so genuine and pure. The two final episodes of the final season of Suits aired back to back and...

SUITS: Season 6 finale

        The 6th season of suits has been quite an emotional one with Mike's would be wedding with Rachel, his going to Prison and Rachel's death row case. Death row cases can get really sad especially if the suspect is innocent which was the case of Leonard Bailey (Glenn Plummer) who was accused of murdering two people. After staying behind bars for 12 years, Leonard Bailey was finally exonerated with the help of Rachel and Jessica (Gina Torres). During this episode, a major character said goodbye to the show. Gina Torres decided to leave Suits to film another TV Show 'Catch' and it was quite emotional. This episode showed a different side of Jessica Pearson, she put her pro Bono case first before the firm and fought for the freedom of Leonard Bailey.          Gina Torres will no longer be a series regular and I was happy her character wasn't killed off like Will Gardner in the Good Wife, (I c...
