A solid sci-fi premise grounded by deep character development and some excellent performances.

The perfect blend of quirkiness, nostalgia, music, and charm. It doesn't push any boundaries but what it does do, it does incredibly well. A guaranteed mood lifter!
A return to the grand, sweeping high fantasy roots, but it can feel a little rushed and rough as a result.
Captain Marvel is played perfectly and looks set to be a fitting lead for the next generation of the MCU, even if some of the origin felt a little, well, unoriginal.
An exceptionally well-crafted story, with brilliant characters, fantastic world-building, excellent humour, genius side quests, and more memorable moments than I can count. Combined with one great expansion and another that could easily be classed as a standalone game of equal calibre, and the final package is one of the greatest gaming achievements I've ever had the pleasure of playing. Truly outstanding and the top of its field.
An average start leads into a genuinely great middle season, even if some of the jokes/storylines now feel a little dated and/or problematic, with some stunning performances, fun homages, and surprisingly intelligent trope-busting narratives. Then it all goes wrong. Seasons 1-3 are worthwhile, but call it a trilogy and end it there.
A delightfully fast-paced sci-fi adventure that continually manages to pull off interesting endings and enjoyable characters, but can't quite get the hang of beginnings.
A paint-by-numbers action film with a ridiculous premise that is saved from utterly drowning in mediocrity by two great leading actors and the occasional moment of self-awareness.
A huge amount of potential to be the Futurama of fantasy but it has yet to pay off. Some fun characters and decent plots, but it can't decide on what type of show it wants to be.
Funnier and more suspenseful than it had any right to be, though ultimately it's still a silly film about people playing tag.
A formulaic film in a formulaic franchise. Still, probably the best attempt since the first outing and the cast are great.
An interesting thought experiment played through fairly well, but beyond the fan interest there isn't much novel here.
