Independence Day: Resurgence

They’re back – and so is the cast… Well, almost… 20 years ago Independence Day was released on the silver screen and it was a huge success. Really good casting, script, story and FX for its time. A pretty descent action/sci-fi/comedy movie! Now here we are, 20 years later, and it’s time for the reboot of the story – and the obvious second attempt by the evil aliens to harvest planet earth…...

The 5th Wave

Alien invasion and kids try to save the planet, or whatever it was supposed to be?… Some time ago I read an early review about The 5th Wave that it was supposed to be an “yet another alien invasion movie – but this one catered for the family as the audience, and blood & gore was replaced by exciting acting and brave kids!

Honestly, I was sceptical to this as soon as it was...

Star Wars: The Force Awakens

Three decades after the defeat of the Galactic Empire, a new threat arises. The First Order attempts to rule the galaxy and only a ragtag group of heroes can stop them, along with the help of the Resistance. After a very long hiatus the Star Wars saga is rebooted, and somewhat surprisingly the job was handed to J.J Abrams (Lost, Star Trek and a bunch of video games) which did surprise me when it was announced. I was actually worried a...
