Jurassic World Review

So let me star off by saying that I really enjoyed this movie.
I've been a casual fan of Jurassic Park ever since the first movie from 1993 and originally I did have some concerns, since the previous two movies weren't as stellar as they could've been.
The Lost World was just awful and I know most people don't like Jurassic Park 3. I did, because it reminded me of a better written Ray Harryhausen movie from the 60's and 70's. That being said, I was strongly looking forward to this new fourth movie and it met my expectations!

If you are a fan of this series, you'll love it and there are several references to the original film, but it's not so daunting that newcomers can watch it without being lost.
Plot is pretty basic, but that's not a bad thing for this type of story. You definitely won't be bored by it's pacing.
The acting is good and of course Chris Pratt doesn't disappoint, but I wish they did something better with the female characters. They leave much to be desired...
Vincent D'Nofrio as they villain was a little boring, but that is kinda the standard for this series, so I let it slide.
Effects were great, but I still love the old charm of the animatronics from before.

What I do give this movie credit for is that it really gives you a sense of danger and suspense, since the park is complete and there are thousands of guests in this dangerous place.

So in the end, Jurassic Park is still my favorite, but this is a close second for me and it's worth watching.

Tell me what you think. Yes, no, maybe so? I'd like to hear from you.

Helltown review

This book is written by Dennis O'Neil a comicbook writing legend known for returning Batman to his dark roots back in the 70's and creating the famous supervillain Ra's Al Ghul.

This book covers the origin story of my favorite underrated character in DC Comics, The Question.

The Question is a detective character that is somewhat obsessed with conspiracy theories, he doesn't have powers, but he makes up for that by sheer skill. You can watch him in several episodes of Justice League Unlimited voiced by Jeffery Combs. (Re-Animator and Batman TAS)

I loved this book, because it gave a very noir feeling to the story that seems separate, but still very part of the DC Universe. The special appearances by Batman and Lady Shiva notwithstanding.

I say you should read this book, because it will add to your list of DC knowledge and if you don't like that, you can have a good mystery to read with fun characters.

If you like The Question, invest some time in reading his own comic series from the 70's and 80's and watch Justice League Unlimited.

That's it for this review. Catch you later, nerds.
