Its quite different from the other marvel films slower paced than most of them.

Shame we didn't get to see more of Mads character but he's not one of stranges main foes, both of his main ones are introduced in the film. As most won't know a lot if anything about the character the film is just really setting it up for another film. But its all very enjoyable , I might be a bit biased as Strange has always been one of my favorite superheroes. Also wait for the scene part way into the credits

I've been to the cinema twice in the past week, the first time to see I, Daniel Blake, and then today to see Jack Reacher – Never Go Back.

Ken Loach's award-winning and critically acclaimed film deserves every bit of praise it has received, because it is a superb piece of cinema which is beautifully edited, superbly acted, cleverly written, and something which lives with you for a long, long time afterwards. I left the cinema an emotional wreck, devastated from a couple of the scenes and furious at the political policies which are highlighted in the film and led to its creation. It isn't an easy watch, but is one which is thoroughly rewarding and should be compulsory watching for everyone at the DWP and government in general.

The new Jack Reacher Film isn't as good as the first one with a third act that is too long, but Tom Cruise (who produced the movie) is again very good in the role with some moments which made me smile at just how effortlessly Reacher deals with the most extreme situations. Although it is an inferior sequel, it was just what I wanted it to be, more or less what I expected, and I would happily watch a third instalment.

You're getting cryptic. What has drinking got to do with it. Did you see it with Harker or something?

My bad for not proofreading before clicking 'submit'! As I'm currently enjoying a glass of whisky and ginger ale, I probably said something about my current beverage and didn't realise it was transcribed onto the screen!

Let this be a lesson to you kids out there: don't drink and dictate.

It was only Johnnie Walker Red Label, a whisky that is not my preferred choice to drink neat.

It was my first experience of drinking whisky with dry ginger, and I liked it so much it is a good way of having a refreshing drink, getting a good alcohol buzz, and not feel as if I'm drinking an alcopop! It's probably something I'll do it again on a warm day with a cheap whisky, a chilled bottle of dry ginger and some ice cubes.
