Review:

Call me crazy, but this film is my ultimate horror comfort movie. I don’t care that nearly everyone I’ve ever spoken to about the film says it’s awful, they suck, don’t listen to them. Listen to me, this film, it’s not up there with spectacular films ever made, and that’s okay, because it’s a good little horror movie. It does the job of a basic slasher. I think it’s brilliant, I love the setting of Ambrose, and I love the Sinclair brothers. I think overall it’s awesome, and really well made. I like films with a small cast, not sure why, I just do. And for the record, I have a biggest crush on Bo Sinclair, but honestly, who wouldn’t? Despite the obvious insanity, he’s cute.

Genre: Action/Sci-fi

Review:

One of the few Marvel movies I didn’t see in the cinema. I don’t even remember Iron Man coming out in the cinema. I was only eleven when it came out, and I don’t think I’d ever really heard of Marvel before then. I wasn’t a comic book kid. Annoyingly I can’t remember when I first watched Iron Man either, but I like it a lot. I really love Pepper, she is definitely my favourite character of the Iron Man movies. I also love the way she interacts with Tony, always has me smiling. I always forget how long this movie is, so many things happen. But I like it, it’s not one of my favourites, but I do like it.

Review:

I’m not one hundred percent sure I’ve actually seen this movie, maybe once? Back when I was a teenager. I enjoyed the opening. I also like that we don’t see Hulk for a good while, and the entrance of Banner being Hulk is really cool. Overall, I didn’t dislike this movie as much as I previously thought I might. And I’d happily watch it again, but is it in any way even close to being one of my favourites. But I didn’t hate it, which is good.
