#DeadpoolandWolverine Review: 8/10
While the story isn't anything to write home about and there are concerning signs of where the MCU may be headed, the overall experience they weave together across two hours in this is memorable and exciting as all hell.

Finally seeing #DeadpoolandWolverine tonight so here's our #Deadpool 2 review before we finish off the trilogy!

Review: 7/10
Very familiar to the first, just with a bigger budget, more star power, and better jokes.

What do you think of Deadpool 2?

With the trilogy finishing off this weekend with #DeadpoolandWolverine let's take a look back at the start with #Deadpool, streaming on #DisneyPlus & #Max

Review: 6/10
Some of the jokes miss and they choose to do exactly what they make fun of, but it's full of fun moments.

Rounding out the #Wolverine trilogy in preparation for #DeadpoolandWolverine is #Logan streaming on #DisneyPlus

Review: 7/10
Mangold makes good use of the R rating fans have been asking for, providing some of the most brutal superhero action sequences ever.

What do you think?

#DeadpoolandWolverine releases in theaters today! Before Logan heads to the MCU, he heads to Japan in #TheWolverine, streaming on #DisneyPlus

Review: 5/10
Despite it's interesting premise that provides some fun backdrops to sword fights, it's far too long and dull.

With #DeadpoolandWolverine opening in theaters tomorrow, we revisit the bottom of the franchise with X-Men Origins: Wolverine on #DisneyPlus & #Max

Review: 3/10
A lazy script, ugly visual effects, and a story that lacks any character arcs, this is a total mess in every aspect.

Next up in preparation for #DeadpoolandWolverine is the strongest entry in the original X-Men trilogy, X2, streaming on #DisneyPlus

Review: 7/10
Creative and kinetic action sequences make up the memorable moments from this milestone sequel.

What do you think of X2? #XMen

With #DeadpoolandWolverine releasing this week, it's time to revisit the introduction of Logan in #XMen, streaming on #DisneyPlus

Review: 6/10
The worldbuilding and themes here are as strong as the cast of characters, but the effects and execution leave a lot to be desired.

One of the best movies of the year so far, #LoveLiesBleeding 🩸 is streaming now on #Max

Review: 8/10
Full of grime, crime, and heart with a kickass soundtrack and powerful performances, both sides of the camera give it their all

🌪️ #Twisters Review: 5/10
What feels like a corporate effort to piggyback off the success of Top Gun: Maverick and revive a cult classic with a legacy sequel, this one lacks the care and craft to make it feel fresh or needed.

With #Twisters 🌪️ releasing in theaters tomorrow, prepare with the original streaming on #Max

Review: 4/10
Cheesy, too long, and rough in every aspect, this disaster movie lacks the energy and stakes it needs.

Review: 5/10
The weakest entry in the franchise, this movie doesn't do justice to one of the most important chapters in this world.

#Longlegs 🦵 comes out this week, so let's prepare by watching Maika Monroe in #Watcher 👁️ on #Hulu

Review: 5/10
A strong lead performance makes it watchable, but overall its a disappointingly basic thriller.

🦈 Celebrate #SharkWeek with #TheShallows starring #BlakeLively streaming on #Tubi

Review: 6/10
Some rough CGI and generic story beats are the biggest weaknesses but the cinematography is decent and the practical shark looks great.
