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 [...]

Justice League didn’t go the way that Warner Bros wanted it to, that’s for sure. A critical drubbing, audience apathy and disappointing box office shows that the DC Comics Extended Universe is in need of a good fix. Movies In Focus is going to [...]

Review: JUSTICE LEAGUE Is A Flawed But Entertaining Superhero Adventure

It’s fair to say that the DC Comics Extended Universe has had a rocky road on its way to the big screen. Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice and Suicide Squad were both given a rough ride by critics, despite scoring solid box office numbers, while [...]

Despite having limited screen-time, Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman was one of the stand-outs from Zack Snyder’s Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice (much better than many would have you believe). Gadot’s Amazonian Princess showed a charisma and [...]

BATMAN RETURNS 25 Years Later

Batman Returns opened on June 19th 1992 – an unbelievable 25 years ago. The film is still the greatest Batman film ever made. I remember the first sequence I saw from the film – it was from the rooftop fight between Michael Keaton‘s [...]

Gal Gadot Takes Girl Power To The Next Level In The Latest Trailer For WONDER WOMAN

This latest trailer Wonder Woman trailer really hits the mark. Gal Gadot first debuted the character in Batman V Superman, but she’ll take her to the next level in Patty Jenkins’ movie. The action looks good and there’s some good [...]

No More BATMAN For Ben Affleck?

I genuinely don’t want this to be true – but it looks like Ben Affleck might be done with Batman. I’ve been championing Ben Affleck as Batman since 1998 (yep, that long!) – so I was pretty stoked when he snagged the role [...]
