Ant-Man and The Wasp Review

Ant-Man and The Wasp doesn’t have as much style as James Gunn’s Guardians movies or Taika Waititi’s Thor: Ragnarok, but returning director Peyton Reed has honed in on everything that made the first Ant-Man so charming and doubled down on it, from the offbeat humor to the zippy energy radiating …

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 Review

Marc Webb’s rebooted Spider-Man was divisive. There was a lot to like – Garfield’s take on Spider-Man, for one – but also plenty to remain unsure and sceptical about.
