Belated Movie and TV Reviews.

**The Kingsman movies. **I like these homages to the Bond movies, the sound, the fast editing, the villains, the cold war, the cross the pond alliance, the costuming are all reminiscent of 60s Bond and the most recent Bond.

And like the Bond movies there is no blood and that bothers me. I know it's for the M rating but it bugs me. That train scene in Argylle should have been a blood bath. Literally 2 cm of blood on the floor and everything else spattered with blood guts and bone.

Also has running gags and scenes across all the movies, which is cool.

**Rings of Power Review by Charlie Hopkinson. **YouTube. Reminded me how much I hated the fucking Hobbits in RoP, especially Lenny Henry. And what they did to the greatest elf warriors is embarrassing, made them look like accountants.

4 real Hobbits.

Taken. Yes, that movie again. Having seen it a few times it's a really good exercise in seeing all the red flags/arsehole behaviour from lennie and her rich git husband that made the daughter disrespect her dad and make unwise choices.

The moral is be good parents, ay, teach respect or your kids will suffer for it.

3.5 hobbits

**The Union. **netflix. Mark Wahlberg and Halle Berry

Pretty standard spyfi movie , the latest story lines in spyfi seem to of an organisation within an organisation and the old race to find files of names before the bad guys get it.

But it's really about people taking risks, pushing limits and achieving potential.

3 hobbits.

**Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare. **

Loosely based on real events. Fast paced action , quite enjoyable. Nazis are bad guys.
