Spiderman:Homecoming (2017)

Image via imdb.com
Going into the theater, I knew Homecoming was going to be really good and what I watched matched my expectations. Tom Holland replaces Andrew Garfield as the new Spiderman who is trying to balance his life as a high school student and a superhero. After fighting with the Avengers, Peter goes back to his life as a student but he wants to prove to himself and to his mentor Tony Stark/Iron Man that he can fight more dangerous crimes instead of just being the friendly neighborhood superhero. He comes in contact with The Vulture (Michael Keaton) and he looks for every means necessary to bring him and his organization down.
This new film takes us back to when Spiderman was just a regular innocent and naive teenager.

 To be honest I was a bit skeptical about Tom Holland playing the iconic superhero, but he delivered on every level. He was born for this role. Michael Keaton is such an amazing actor, he played his role as the villain Vulture so well even though I kind of wished he was more evil than he was. This course worked well because it was Keaton playing the role of the villain. I doubt it would have been better with another actor. Robert Downey Jr as Iron Man was awesome as usual. We see just enough of him to make the film more interesting and not look like he's taking the spotlight away from Holland. The action scenes and the CGI were amazing, but I didn't expect anything less from a Marvel movie.

 The way this film was written makes it stand out from every other Spiderman movie. It's different, but in a good way and I enjoyed watching from the first scene till the credits rolled. The humor, which I think was one of the best things about this film wasn't forced in any way by the characters. I loved everything about this film and I definitely can't wait to see the next one. Stop reading and go see it now if you're yet to.

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...

"Don't Tell Mama"- The Shocking Sharp Objects Season Finale

   Sharp Objects easily tops the list of my all time favorite TV Series. The HBO Limited Series aired it eight and final episode last night and it's something I'll probably never forget. I'm trying so hard to find the right words to describe this amazing show and the phenomenal acting from Amy Adams, Patricia Clarkson and Eliza Scanlen. They were just too perfect. Throughout the season, we've all been trying to figure out who the killer was in this whodunnit and I had so many theories. I never believed it was John Keene because most times, it's always the person you least expect that'll end up being the perpetrator. My first suspect was Alan (Henry Czerny), Adora's husband and Amma's father. I thought the only reason he would venture out to killing teenage girls was due to the fact that he was no longer as had a bond with his daughter and his loveless marriage but I was so wrong. Then I thought it was the Police Chief, Bill who was in cahoots with Ado...

Chicago Justice: Series Premiere/Crossover Episode-"Fake"

Image via imdb.com I looked forward to seeing Chicago Justice after it was announced because I love the One Chicago universe even though I'm yet to see the other shows, i'm very familiar with their stories and characters. I'm a crazy fan of Chicago PD so I'm going to binge watch all the episodes of Chicago Fire, but I don't think I'll be able to see Chicago Med. Medical shows are too emotional for me. With Law and Order: Special Victims Unit, I don't know where to start from, but I'll binge watch from season one to eighteen whenever I can for sure.  The four part crossover started with an episode on Chicago Fire and concluded in the season premiere of Chicago Justice. There is a fire at a warehouse and the Chicago Fire crew think it's an accident but Severide (Taylor Kinney) finds metal wedges shoved under the door which means whoever started the fire wanted everyone trapped inside, so its arson.
