Changing the past - X-Men: Days of Future Past Review

www.facebook.com/vuepointuk

If there’s anything that Marvel fans want to do, it’s go back and erase Brett Ratner from the X-Men timeline. It would seem that Bryan Singer may just have found a way of doing that. X-Men: Days of Future Past welcomes back the director of X-Men, and X2: X-Men United, and understandably, we’re excited. And for good reason. X-Men: Days of Future Past secures itself safely as one of the best X-Men films yet.

There are a lot of great shows out there, but some of them have people who we really want to fall off something high. Here is a list of my least likeable characters on TV, and be warned, there’s some pretty major spoilers below.

Supernatural: Do You Believe In Miracles? - Review

www.facebook.com/vuepointuk

For 9 seasons, Sam and Dean have hunted and killed the big bad, but for the last year we’ve seen a whole new type of evil. Sure, we had Abbadon as the over-arching demon serving as a primary antagonist for the brothers to – as they would put it – “gank”, but when she gets killed off before the finale, the focus shifts to Metatron, the angel responsible for the angels’ fall from heaven.

Back Into The Abyss - Dark Souls 2 Review

www.facebook.com/vuepointuk

After what feels like decades, the much anticipated sequel to From Software’s Dark Souls is finally upon us. Dark Souls 2 throws us back into the brutal action and unforgiving necessity for learning that made the first game so successful. A few drawbacks pull this game away from perfection, but these are minor, and can even be overcome. Dark Souls 2 is an addictive experience that will make you struggle to pull yourself away from it for any extended period of time.

If It Ain't Broke... - Dead Space 3 Review

www.facebook.com/vuepointuk

When Isaac Clarke first stepped onto our screens in Dead Space, the survival-horror genre got the kick up the ass that it needed. Followed by an outstanding sequel that topped the original in almost every way in Dead Space 2, it’s no wonder that fans of the series were jumping behind the sofa once again when the third instalment was announced. Isaac Clarke is back again in Dead Space 3, and whilst it’s undoubtedly the weakest of the three, it is by no means a bad game.

Jack, The Giant Slayer - Film Review

www.facebook.com/vuepointuk

Audiences have been spoilt for choice recently if they’re looking for an action film based on a classic fairytale. The likes of Hansel and Gretel and Snow White have been re-imagined and put into a movie that would be more enjoyable to fans of action. Here we have Jack and the Beanstalk being told slightly differently, in Jack, The Giant Slayer. Unfortunately, a large number of cringe-inducing cliché’s and far too much forced humour hold this flick back from reaching the level of entertainment set by others in this category.

Gaming Heaven? Or Reboot Hell? - DMC: Devil May Cry Game Review

www.facebook.com/vuepointuk

The teams at Capcom and Ninja Theory made a pretty ballsy move in rebooting a franchise as loved as Devil May Cry. Stripping away everything that we know and replacing it with a new Dante, a new world, and new relationships with his fellow characters could have gone horribly wrong, but as it turns out, this new twist on the series is a refreshing change, and shows that you really can teach an old dog new tricks.
