Ant Man and The Wasp (2018)

 In the aftermath of 'Captain America: Civil War,' Scott Lang is on house arrest and spends his time playing with his very adorable daughter Cassie (Abbie Ryder Fortson) as he counts down the days until he regains his freedom. He is confronted by Hope Van Dyne and her father, Dr. Hank Pym with a very urgent mission and they have to work together to save Janet Van Dyne who has been stuck in the Quantum Realm for 30 years.
   Unlike the first film which I thought was very dull and forgettable, Ant-Man and The Wasp which is the 20th Marvel film was more fun and playful. I loved the cast and characters especially Evangeline Lily's Wasp. She was fierce and in control. I loved the fact that I was not emotionally invested like I was for Infinity War. It was pure entertainment from the beginning to the end. It relied heavily on the charm and wittiness of Paul Rudd and his character which I thought brought more life to the film. The funniest scene had to be when his suit malfunctioned and he shrunk to the size of a child at his daughter's school. Peña also stood out as he brought a lot of humor to the film. Hannah John-Kamen was a refreshing addition to the cast and I loved her as Ghost. There's a lot of emotion involved in this character and you're left wondering if you should feel bad for her or hate her. The action scenes were particularly interesting to watch with the way people, buildings and cars got smaller and bigger. If I'm being completely honest, I had very low expectations but I was pleasantly surprised at how entertained I was watching this sequel.


RATING 8/10
DIRECTOR Peyton Reed
STARRING Paul Rudd, Evangeline Lily, Michael Peña, Michael Douglas, Laurence Fishburne, Hannah John-Kamen
RELEASE DATE July 6, 2018

"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...
