Twenty-seven years after the Losers’ Club defeated Pennywise, he has returned to terrorize the town of Derry once more, in Warner Bros. Pictures and New Line Cinema’s “IT Chapter Two.” Now adults, the Losers have long since gone their separate ways. However, people are disappearing again, so Mike, the only one of the group to remain in their hometown, calls the others home. Damaged by the experiences of their past, they must each conquer their deepest fears to destroy Pennywise once and for all...putting them directly in the path of the shape-shifting clown that has become deadlier than ever.

IT Chapter Two - How Can Evil End?

After waiting for two years, it is time for us to go back to the town of Derry where a group of kids made an oath to stop IT after its 27 years of slumber. We had s scarefest with the first IT movie which brought new life to the classic Stephen King novel.

Now for chapter two, it will now introduce a grown up gang who have their own lives outside Derry. But when It comes back after decades of slumber, it again wrecks havoc on the small town and its residents. These incidents will eventually call the group back to finally kill the murderous clown or they will be killed by him.

With their own separate lives outside the troubled town, they have forgotten some of the memories of the most traumatic experience of their lives. Catching up with their own lives looks very fun and nostalgic, however it takes a turn to horror as Pennywise the clown plays with the groups fears and frustration.

REEL DEAL: X-Men Apocalypse REVIEW


After the time-intervention of Days of Future Past, the X-Men faces a new foe with the latest installment to the franchise, X-Men Apocalypse. And the class gets larger with more mutants and now more exposed to the world with the events of the previous movie.

Now comes the most powerful and first mutant in the world En Sabah Nur which is known as Apocalypse. Like the biblical story, there is also the inclusion of the Four Horsemen, Magneto, Psylocke, Angel, and Storm. 

Key characters like Professor X, Beast and Mystique leads the ensemble which will also welcome the future leaders of the Xavier school like Cyclops and Jean Grey who are fresh from their teens.

Though it would be a relaitively peaceful time unlike the peak of the cold war and the assault on the capital, the unbalanced treatment of mutants all over the world poses a treat to the security of the world. Now Apocalypse comes in to do a worldwide cleansing with the help of his horsemen.

Expect a lot of 80s feel for the movie, though there might me slight inconsistencies that should have been polished, it was able to deliver an action packed superhero movie as it is expected to be. 

Daniel Radcliffe Give Hunchback Igor A New Twist And Face In “VICTOR FRANKENSTEIN”

The boy who lived, Daniel Radcliffe, who is best known for his recurring successful titular role in the highly-successful “Harry Potter” movies brings the audience for another thrilling ride in his latest adult role as the hunchback Igor in “Victor Frankenstein.”

In the movie, Radcliffe is the hunchback Igor, who lived despite the terrible treatment he’s had from the circus handlers he’s worked for and even defied death upon meeting a brilliant yet sociopath scientist “Victor Frankenstein” (James McAvoy taking on the titular role). As The Hunchback, a lowly circus clown and dogsbody in the early part of the film, who, when he meets scientist Victor Frankenstein (James McAvoy) is transformed into Igor after Frankenstein performs a simple procedure to cure his disfigurement.  Igor had spent his entire life in the circus, working as a clown.  Although he’s much maligned and even abused by the owner and his fellow performers, Igor has become a gifted surgeon, healing injured performers and animals.

James McAvoy Reverses Death, Challenges Destiny In “VICTOR FRANKENSTEIN”

James McAvoy and Daniel Radcliffe star in VICTOR FRANKENSTEIN, a dynamic and thrilling twist on a legendary tale.  Radical scientist Victor Frankenstein (McAvoy) and his equally brilliant protégé Igor Strausman (Radcliffe) share a noble vision of aiding humanity through their groundbreaking research into immortality. But Victor’s experiments go too far, and his obsession has horrifying consequences.  Only Igor can bring his friend back from the brink of madness and save him from his monstrous creation. 

Reanimating A Movie Monster In “VICTOR FRANKENSTEIN”

Filming a re-imagining of Frankenstein was, jokes director Paul McGuigan, rather like giving life to a movie monster.  McGuigan, admirably lauded for his thrilling works in exceptional movies with A-list actors such as Bruce Willis, Josh Hartnett and Ben Kingsley in “Lucky Number Slevin,”  Chris Evans and Dakota Fanning in “Push,”  Tom Hardy, Paul Bettany and Willem Dafoe in “The Reckoning,” Paul Bettany and David Thewlis in “Gangster No. 1” and “Wicker Park” with Josh Hartnett and Rose Byrne and who has also directed several episodes of the acclaimed BBC television series Sherlock, which stars Benedict  Cumberbatch now helms an electrifying monster of a movie in “Victor Frankenstein” starring James McAvoy (“X-Men” films) and Daniel Radcliffe (“Harry Potter” films) as loyal allies at a time when scientific breakthroughs from the period’s greatest minds are at its peak. 

REEL DEAL: The Biggest And The best Superhero Ensemble Opens Today - May 21 In 2D, 3D and 4DX Cinemas “X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST”

With the world devastated by war, and mutants in particular facing extinction, Professor Charles Xavier (Patrick Stewart) and his long-time friend/occasional enemy Magneto (Ian McKellen) hatch a plan to send Wolverine’s (Hugh Jackman) consciousness back in time to his younger self in the 1970s in “X-Men: Days of Future Past.”   While there, he must convince the First Class era versions of Xavier and Magneto to put aside their vast differences and bitter rivalry to work together and stop the dark, dangerous future from coming to pass. But it won’t be an easy job, as Charles Xavier in 1973 is in a dark place himself – and it might take meeting his future self to knock him out of a deep depression…

Stewart returns to the role of Charles Xavier he originated in 2000’s X-Men, reuniting with director Bryan Singer and his castmates. Slipping back into the character of Charles, Sir Stewart says that “This time, it's been a little different because the background to our story is such that the X-Men find themselves not at the start of difficult situations, but almost at the climax of them – a time when not just mutants, but all of society is threatened with extinction by these machines, the Sentinels. The drama and intensity really never let up for us in this film; in the past, we've had lighter moments and sometimes even scenes of quite conventional action. But not in this one, because the external threat is so present and so demanding that everything is at a high level of tension.”

REEL DEAL: X-Men Days of Future Past REVIEW

Bringing the X-men Trilogy, First Class, and Wolverine movie series together is what people have been waiting for. X-Men Days of Future Past is worth the wait after the series has gone through the meticulous reviews of movie buffs and comic geeks. 

With a powerhouse cast and most of them are award winning actors, beyond the mutant powers is the powerful smorgasbord of acting prowess that gets all the emotions running plus the action and great effects a feast for the viewers.

New mutants also are seen here like Bishop, Blink, Warpath, Sunspot and Quicksilver! 

Bringing the (futuristic) X-men and the First Class is a plot nightmare as they have to conform with the timeline of all the films to prove its consistency as a single franchise. To date it will be Hugh Jackman's seventh time to reprise the role of Wolverine, and there will be another one in 2016, so its not over yet.

REEL DEAL: "X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST" Latest Trailer Reveal

For the first time, the mutant worlds of the first three X-Men movies and the new, younger versions of our heroes from 2011’s successful First Class are on screen in one film. With Bryan Singer back directing, "X-Men: Days of Future Past" promises an adventure like nothing we have seen before.

The future is dark for the heroes of the X-Men saga in “Days of Future Past.” A years-long world conflict between humans and mutants has taken its toll on their numbers, and now a scant few remain, including Professor Charles Xavier (Patrick Stewart), Erik “Magneto” Lehnsherr (Ian McKellen), Kitty Pryde (Ellen Page), and Wolverine (Hugh Jackman). Driven to near extinction by the technological terrors unleashed by Bolivar Trask (Peter Dinklage), the team forms a desperate plan: time travel.

REEL DEAL: X-men's Toughest Challenge Yet In “X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST” (3D)

20th Century Fox has just released new photos from the upcoming “X-Men: Days of Future Past,” the most epic and action-packed X-Men to-date.

Back at the helm of a blockbuster film franchise he helped launch, Bryan Singer directs “X-Men: Days of Future Past” where mutants are fighting for survival in a dark future where the robotic Sentinels have been slowly wiping them.    The mutants look to time travel to help their younger selves stop this awful timeline from coming to pass. Wolverine (Hugh Jackman), having the ability to instantly heal, is the one chosen to endure the strain of travelling back in time.
