Loki 2021 - Season 1


 Genre: Action, Adventure, Fantasy, Sci-Fi

Rating: TV 14

Synopsis: The mercurial villain Loki resumes his role as the God of Mischief in a new series that takes place after the events of “Avengers: Endgame.”

If you are unfamiliar with Avengers Endgame then this TV show will make little sense. Although that being said time travel always has very confusing situations come up. After Endgame it was already confusing how they would proceed with a Loki TV show. However watching the first episode, they have a clear idea, and honestly, it works. 

Just like Hawkeye, this season is only six episodes, which as a huge Loki fan was a massive disappointment. I'm not sure why they classed Hawkeye as a mini-series and this as a season but whatever. 

The first episode was pretty emotional, action-packed, and brought in some new characters that are both intriguing and mysterious. With all of the revelations over the course of the series, I thought the first episode was by far the best. 

As the story progresses the time travel, multiple dimensions, and different variants cause more action, mystery, and extremely hilarious, and emotional moments. 

Tom Hiddleston is clearly the best part of the entire show, and since he is the main character I would hope he would be. The other cast members also do a great job. I was pleasantly surprised by Own Wilson. His usual make jokes about everything are set aside as this new character has the same smiling face but a somewhat unnerving way of getting psychological with Loki. 

Final Thoughts

Overall I did like the series and I'm intrigued as to where they will take it from here. I always find time travel stuff confusing at times and with all the extra multiple dimensions added it was hard to follow at times for me personally. My husband however was able to explain what I missed so I didn't worry too much about it. This TV show hit all the right notes and at the right time, whether it was emotional, funny, or just action. 

7 out of 10. Recommend for all Loki/Marvel fans. 

Always Keep Fighting. 

You Are Enough.

Teen Wolf: The Movie 2023

  Genre:  Drama, Fantasy, Mystery Rating:  TV-MA Synopsis:  A full moon rises in Beacon Hills, and with it a terrifying evil has emerged. The wolves are howling once again, calling for the return of Banshees, Werecoyotes, Hellhounds, Kitsunes, and every other shapeshifter in the night. But only a Werewolf like Scott McCall, no longer a teenager yet still an Alpha, can gather both new allies and reunite trusted friends to fight back against what could be the most powerful and deadliest enemy they’ve ever faced. Being a huge fan of the TV show I was looking forward to this as I was intrigued as to what my favorite supernatural beings were up to and what they would face.  Honestly, for the villain of the story, I was somewhat confused by the choice, especially with the fact that the character highly connected to it in many ways, was missing entirely. Now I know that not all actors want to return for a follow-up, whether it be a sequel or whatever, however with this in mind the choice of v

Cabinet of Curiosities - 2022 Netflix Original

Image
  Genre:  Drama, Horror, Mystery Rating:  TV-MA Synopsis:  Bizarre nightmares unfold in eight tales of terror in a visually stunning, spine-tingling horror collection curated by Guillermo del Toro. As a huge fan of Guillermo del Toro, I had high hopes for this. The opening is visually stunning and the music reminds me of the nightmare before Christmas.  There are some huge stars present and regardless of the story, I personally think everyone did an incredible job showing each character. The problem with a collection of short stories, such as this, is you run into a time problem. Some stories did not get enough time, while others wasted time on things that did not progress fast enough for the time allotted.  Here is a quick breakdown of my thoughts for each episode.  Lot 36 - A very slow start and quick end. Lots of build up very little reward, but the monster was cool. 6 out of 10. Graveyard Rats - Very cool visuals, great story, and straight to the point. Great creature design. 8

Jurassic World Camp Cretaceous - Season 5 - Netflix Original

Image
Genre: Animation, Action, Adventure, Family, Science Fiction Rating: TV PG Synopsis: Teens attending an adventure camp on the opposite side of Isla Nublar must band together to survive when dinosaurs wreak havoc on the island. Previous seasons do need to be watched to understand the relationships between the group and what they've been through so far.  If you've seen the Jurassic World movies, including the most recent it will add some missing details but it's not necessary to watch them before.  I would recommend watching the Jurassic World Dominion movie before the last episode so that some revelations during the show will make sense and will avoid spoilers if you haven't seen the movie.  Season 5 is the last season so it had high expectations to finish with a bang and wrap up any loose ends. With a total of  12 episodes, this time around I did think it was the perfect amount, with the exception of Episode 5 which I thought was pretty much a filler.  Worse: Episode
