Joaquin Phoenix Is Wild For THE JOKER; Actor Talks About The New Movie & Character

Movies In Focus hasn’t been covering the ongoing saga of DC Comics movies recently. That’s simply because there hasn’t really been a lot to report. I’m past the point of jumping on every little thing, because life’s too short and [...]

See Zachary Levi In Costume For The First Official SHAZAM! Image

Movies In Focus doesn’t care about Shazam!. It’s a terrible title and I have no idea who Zachary Levi is. Maybe if they throw in Superman, Batman or Wonder Woman, I might be interested. But some kid shouting Shazam! and turning into a [...]

Blu-ray Review: JUSTICE LEAGUE – Not As Bad As You Think But Not As Great As You Hope

Justice League hit the big screen with quite a muted response, which was a severe kick in the teeth for a film which was supposed to be the DC Comics Extended Universe answer to The Avengers. The $250 million+ budgeted film opened to a [...]

TEEN TITANS: Major DC Comics No-No

Forget Marvel, I’m a DC Comics guy. I enjoyed Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice, Suicide Squad, Wonder Woman and Justice League. I thought the Lego Batman Movie was fun – but Teen Titans GO! To The Movies looks terrible. Serious [...]
