Posted on July 17, 2016 by Sam S-P

Review: Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015)

Posted on April 27, 2015 by Sam S-P

This might be staying the obvious, but the problem with setting the bar ever higher is that each time it’s a harder task to clear it. Marvel might well have now reached that stage. The studio has become synonymous with … Continue reading →
