The Eternals is a solid addition to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The film is visually stunning, and the cast delivers strong performances. While it may not be as action-packed as other Marvel films, it makes up for it with its thoughtful themes and character development. Fans of the superhero genre will not be disappointed
Rocketman is certainly braver than Bohemian Rhapsody, but that’s not ultimately what makes it a better film. The narrative is more cohesive, the main character more complex and his story more vividly presented, enhanced by knock-out musical numbers.
Rocketman tells the life story of Elton John. His rise to fame from his childhood home in the Pinner area of London to the world wide success as a mega star is covered in this bio-pic.
Taron Egerton throws himself into the role wholeheartedly and captures the energy and excitement of Elton’s early live performances with the swagger and poise of the man himself. His cocaine and alcohol addiction isn’t lingered on as much as it probably should be, but even this serves to keep the film upbeat and entertaining.
James Watkins’s third feature film sees him make a departure from horror and tackle the action/drama genre with Bastille Day. It’s a taut and pacy affair, which follows a young pickpocket inadvertently caught up in a suspected Parisian terrorist attack and his attempts to clear his name, whilst finding the real culprits alongside an uncompromising CIA agent.
