“I have to admit that I’m not exactly a huge fan of The Notorious B.I.G. but since this new documentary was available on Netflix, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, to be honest, the beginning was pretty much a mess. Maybe they wanted to show how unique and intimate the footage would be ” read more
What is it about?
Following the events of 'Avengers: Endgame,' Sam Wilson/Falcon and Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier team up in a global adventure that tests their abilities -- and their patience.
My verdict:
Sure, it wasn’t original as ‘WandaVision’ turned out to be but it was still quite entertaining though. On top of that, even though it was this time pretty straightforward, it was actually neat that it was something completely different. Eventually, what the two shows had in common was that they both focused on 2 characters who didn’t get much attention so far in the over-crowded MCU and it is rather unlikely that any of them would ever get their own massive MCU blockbuster. All in all, it was nice to spend more time with a set of characters who remained in the shadows until that point. Can’t wait to see ‘Loki’ next.
“I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but since I have a weak spot for Rosamund Pike, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, it turned out to be an interesting story but, beside being a solid history lesson, to be honest, it never really managed to engage me emotionally. For e” read more

“I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but since I have a weak spot for Isabel Coixet’s work, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, even though this movie turned out to be rather quaint and harmless, I actually really struggled to care about the damned thing though. I did re” read more
Notes: Even though I'm a huge fan of Charles Chaplin, having seen all his full length directing efforts and many of his shorts, I must admit that I'm pretty much ignorant concerning Buster Keaton. As a matter of fact, before watching this flick, I had never seen any of his movies! I know, shame on me... As you can imagine, I had some huge expectations before watching the damned thing and, to be honest, I have to admit that I was actually a little bit disappointed. I mean, it was pretty good and I definitely enjoyed it but I can't say I was blown away like I was with Chaplin's movies. I don't know, it was definitely funny but I never really cared about the main character and what he was going through. Eventually, even though Buster Keaton always said that this was his favorite movie, it was a huge flop and Keaton slowly disappeared into obscurity. Still, there were some impressive stunts (no CGI back then) and there is no doubt that Keaton can be sometimes really hilarious...
