Murder on the Orient Express

Short review: Murder on the Orient Express derailed at the end. The build up was so good (a passenger on a train filled with people is murdered). The clues are all there, but when the ending comes I legit threw up my hands in the theater...LIKE EVERYONE ELSE! It was a terrible movie, and I hope it doesn't get a sequel OR if it does someone else writes it. They should've changed the book as it's VERY dated. 2 stars out of 5. I know it's faithful to the book, but the ending was awful.

Thor: Ragnarok

The best Thor yet! 5 stars out of 5. Keep reading...
For me the Thor movies have been like the three Captain America movies and the Iron Man movies...each movie is better than the last. Not sure what Marvel is doing that DC can't, but these three movie franchises tie in together and are just great! 

This Thor was funny, smart, and well-acted. Jeff Goldblum is HILARIOUS in his small role. Jeff defines "there are no small roles just small actors." 

All is well in Asgard until the actual first born of Odin (Anthony Hopkins) comes back. Cate Blanchett is the wickedly evil Hella (appropriate cuz she brings HELL). Even though she's NEVER been mentioned before it's because every kingdom has a ruler and executioner. She was the executioner until Odin wanted to not be a tyrant king. He locked her away as well as their army. When she arises Hell is the easy place compared to what she does.

Mix in the Hulk/Bruce Banner (Mark Ruffalo), Loki (the delicious Tom Hiddleston), and Dr. Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) and this was a great superhero film. Every detail covered and homages paid. It was as if Joss Whedon wrote this (which he could've).

Worth seeing.
