Yeah, the movie is pretty average and the battles aren't really exciting.

I did buy these movies this week:

Heat - Directed by Michael manand stars Al Pacino and Robert Deniro.

Jack Reacher: Never Go Back - Directed Edward Zwick and stars Tom Cruise and Colby Smolders.

Underworld: Blood Wars - Directed by Anna Foerster and stars Kate Beckinsale.

Ghost In The Shell - Directed by Rupert Everett and stars Scarlett Johansson, Takeshi Kitano and Michael Pitt.

Based on the first Ghost In The Shell anime movie and has a fair amount of criticism due to casting Scarlett as the Motoko Kusanagi.

The Mummy - Directed by Alex Kurtzman and stars Tom Cruise, Sofia Boutella and Annabelle Wallis.

The movie is meant to be the start of Universal's new attempt at a shared cinematic universe called the 'Dark Universe' but it's not off to a great start.

Arrow blu of John Carpenter's The Thing.

I actually ordered both the regular Limited Edition and the steelbook, and I pained over the decision which to actually open to watch, but it seemed like a no-brainer; the LE has lots of paperwork I'll want to check out.

So of course the steelbook is the first to arrive. Doh!

Transformers : The Last Knight on 2 disc DVD oooh extras! Nice that a bit of effort has been put in to include some 'making-of' stuff. The film spending the bulk of the time in the UK no doubt has something to do with this. The documentaries are all good to sit through, and made me appreciate how much work and effort goes into even silly nonsense like giant out of space robots. The film remains enjoyable fluff with too much going on and Cogman stealing the show. Mercifully we were spared too much of Simmons (seriously, why do people find such a deliberately 'wacky' character appealing? He's the Rob Scheider of Transformers films...).

Its already available? that was fast. Very happy for the 2-disc edition as well, which they haven't bothered with since Revenge of the Fallen (at least in the UK). I stopped watching the TF films at the cinema with Dark of the Moon, but I enjoy them all massively on a home TV. Looking forward to getting this one (I really enjoyed the bonkers Age of Extinction).

It does work much better on blu ray where you can read your phone during the less interesting bits and pause it to go have a nap in the middle.

But then you'd have to continue watching it when you wake up.

Baywatch (2017) - Stars Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson, Priyanka Chopra, Zack Efron and Alexandria Daddario.
Appears to be a reboot of the TV series.

The Big Sick - Stars Kumail Nanjiani and Zoe Kazan.
Loosely based on the real-life romance between Nanjiani and Emily V. Gordon, it follows an interracial couple who must deal with cultural differences after Emily becomes sick.

Batman Beyond: The Complete Series - now all they have to do is release it on Blu-Ray and I'll have three sets of this show.
As a professional tanuki (I'm a Japanese mythological animal, and a good luck charm), I have an alarm clock built into me somewhere. I also look like a stuffed animal. And you thought your life was tough......
