| 67 28% | Transformers: Rise of the Beasts (2023) - Rated 11 Jun 2023
"This film presents a daring, albeit uneven, entry into the Transformers universe. It's a film that risks much, and while it fails to fully deliver on its promise, it's still a spectacle that will likely entertain fans of the franchise and casual viewers alike."

| 85 79% | Black Panther (2018) - Rated 09 Jun 2023
""Black Panther" is a vibrant tapestry of political and social themes, woven with the threads of familiar superhero motifs. Despite its occasional narrative and visual missteps, it stands as a distinctive addition to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, as well as a beacon of representation and cultural authenticity."

| 62 15% | Prisoners (2013) - Rated 09 Jun 2023
"“Prisoners” fails to escape its own web of complexities. Despite its well-intentioned effort to weave a dense, character-driven narrative, it falls into the traps of convoluted storytelling and sensationalist theatrics. It's a film that promises to lead viewers into an intriguing labyrinth of dark secrets and human depravity but leaves them wandering aimlessly in a tangle of loose ends and unfulfilled expectations."
|
| 56 7% | Spider-Man 3 (2007) - Rated 09 Jun 2023
"Despite its admirable ambition, this Spider-Man venture is a tangled web of overcrowded plotlines, underdeveloped characters, and wasted potential. It’s a film that could have benefitted from the adage "less is more"."
|
| 67 28% | The Amazing Spider-Man (2012) - Rated 09 Jun 2023
""The Amazing Spider-Man" demonstrates some successes, particularly in its initial exploration of character and the humanity of its protagonist. Yet it is hindered by its inability to reconcile a deep, character-driven plot with the demands of a blockbuster spectacle. There is an underlying sense of ambition in this film, a desire to breathe fresh life into a well-loved narrative. For that, it should be applauded, despite its shortcomings."
|
| 62 15% | Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981) - Rated 09 Jun 2023
""Raiders of the Lost Ark" may be a palatable diversion for the casual viewer, those in pursuit of a richer cinematic experience will find it wanting. It is an adventure film with plenty of action but little depth, a tale that caters to the common denominator but fails to challenge, surprise, or truly engage the viewer."
|
| 65 22% | Spider-Man 2 (2004) - Rated 09 Jun 2023
"This film strives for depth and complexity but is weighed down by its formulaic plot, predictable character arcs, and an imbalance between action and emotional depth. While there are glimpses of greatness, they are often buried under layers of mediocrity."
|
| 68 32% | Spider-Man: Far from Home (2019) - Rated 09 Jun 2023
"This installment of Spider-Man offers a feast of visual grandeur and high-stakes spectacle, peppered with moments of warmth and levity. However, the narrative fumbles in its balancing act, leaving us with a film that's rather like a holographic illusion—entertaining to watch, but somewhat lacking in substance when you look closer."
|
| 65 22% | Spider-Man (2002) - Rated 09 Jun 2023
"Spider-Man delivers a visually spectacular but narratively unremarkable take on Spider-Man's tale. It falls prey to a number of superhero movie clichés, yet the heart of the story - Peter's journey towards responsibility - offers a glimmer of the depth that might have been. Despite the film's many shortcomings, it remains a passable addition to the superhero genre and will likely appease the less critical viewer"
|
| 52 5% | Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017) - Rated 04 Jun 2023
"This film presents a fusion of genre elements that promises much but delivers little. It stands as a testament to the fact that dazzling visuals and a high-profile cast cannot compensate for an uninspired storyline. In the parlance of our young hero's academia, I’d grade it a barely passing score."
