Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore Movie Review
With magic at its core, all three of the works so far have been filled with wonderful creations, and the creatures of the title have run the gambit from cute and cuddly to quite menacing.

The Duke Movie Review
The film starts when his protest against the TV levee that the government inflicted back in the sixties lands him in jail where he does time.

His activities escalate until he is accused of stealing a portrait of the Duke of Wellington by the Spanish painter Goya.
//
Bunton is so unassuming and eccentric that even with a country-wide ...

The Batman Movie Review
On the casting front, things are uniformly effective with Robert Pattinson as Bruce Wayne and his alter ego Batman more than holding up his end, he has brooding down to a science. Zoë Kravitz as Selina Kyle (AKA Catwoman) hits all the right notes and looks great in tight black leather while Colin Farrell is almost unrecognisable as Oswald Cobblepot (The Penguin). Jeffrey Wright as Lt. James Gordon and John Turturro as the crime boss Carmine Falcone turn in their usual strong workman like ...
