Captain America: Brave New World Movie Review (Spoiler Free)
This is one of the most disappointing MCU entries. All the potential, none used in execution. Though not the worst film of the MCU, Brave New World tries to be too much, and fails as it tries to juggle three plots in one film. Character development is barely existent, introduced side stories lead into nothing, and the dialogue sounds like a blueprint of exposition. Most impressive was the camera work, giving the whole look a grimey 70s thriller feeling.

Havoc Movie Review (Spoiler Free)
Though it isn’t a perfect action piece, Havoc is a refreshing take on its subgenre. The character-driven plot contrasts with the persistent rapid pacing. Though original, the use of standard topics hinders its uniqueness. Hardy gives a nuanced performance as Detective Walker, though it is Quelin Sepulveda, who steals the show with her stellar performance.

Thunderbolts* Movie Review (Spoiler Free)
Flipping the Avengers plot and adding a good share of melancholy, this new entry in the MCU re-prioritises character development over mindless spectacle.

The Accountant 2 Movie Review (Spoiler Free)
While not as good as the first one, The Accountant 2 is still a solid sequel. Would I have wished for a few more puzzles to figure out? Sure, but the change in tone also made it unique, without feeling like a rehash of the 2016 one. The brotherly dynamic in the story was the best part, with Affleck and Bernthal having great chemistry. The humour was at times misplaced, but the jokes always landed. The action, while conventional, gave the whole plot a good sense of urgency.

Den of Thieves 2 - Pantera Movie Review (Spoiler Free)
The sequel no one asked for, to a sub-par clone of the classic crime flick Heat, is finally out. More guns, more stakes, a bigger price, & no one who cares about it. Pantera tries to be more of a heist film than an action flick, but it has awkward pacing, dull surveillance scenes, and is empty of any tension. A sequel that has no reason to exist.
