NEW THIS WEEK
Spider-Man finally makes his way into the Marvel Cinematic
Universe! Following the events of last year’s Captain America: Civil War,
Homecoming
sees the teenage superhero (Tom Holland) eager to join forces with The
Avengers again for another mission, that is if his mentor Tony Stark (Robert Downey
Jr.) will let him. In an attempt to stay low key, Spider-Man tries his best to
just fight smaller crimes in his own neighborhood. Unfortunately for him, a
small scale smuggler he’s tracking is gaining power, and quickly becomes the
villainous Vulture (Michael Keaton), creating the same type of danger Stark
wanted him to avoid. Can he truly juggle being Spider-Man and a just normal kid
at the same time?
We Said: “The Marvel
Cinematic Universe hasn't felt right without him, to be perfectly honest. With Spider-Man:
Homecoming the MCU has finally been set right, and they did it with a
film that's funny, light on its feet, a little bit retro, a little bit modern,
and different than any Spider-Man we've seen on the big screen.” Rating: 3.5 out of 5
The surprise smash hit comedy of the summer, Girls
Trip follows four old friends (Regina Hall, Queen Latifah, Jada Pinkett
Smith and Tiffany Haddish) who reunite to travel to a huge music festival in
New Orleans as a way to reignite their friendship. Along the way, the group
goes wild: dancing, drinking, frighting, and partying the way they did when
they were younger.
We Said: “It’s pretty cool to
see a comedy starring black women getting to do all the raunchy, fun humor that
usually we see white men do all the time, occasionally black men and that one
time we saw white women. Hopefully, this does well and we can see more of these
type of movies that are universal yet also celebrate another part of American
culture like this one does. This movie really isn’t perfect but it’s really,
really good. […] Girls Trip is very much worth the trip.” Rating: 4 out of 5
Netflix’s earth-shattering pop cultural phenomenon is yours
to own in this brilliant vintage 80’s style collection. Before the new season
drops, revisit the small town with big secrets, as a group of young misfits
battle otherworldly beings while trying to rescue their missing friend. Along
the way, of course, they join forces with audience favorite Eleven, a young
girl with mysterious and powerful supernatural abilities. It’s the perfect time
to revisit The Upside-Down, and get in the spooky spirit of the season.
