The Last Witch Hunter

Vin Diesel plays his usual character. Some action happens. Parts are quite fun. The world-building isn't entirely tropes. I didn't hate it.

Tangled

Still great fun but not quite as utterly brilliant as I remembered; remains well worth a watch and a core part of Disney's evolution.

The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen

A brilliantly crafted mashup of literary characters that is a delight to read; one of the best graphic novels I've picked up to date.

Logan

A mature, nuanced take on the beloved character. Jackman can retire from the role knowing that he finally did Wolverine right.

Pokemon Duel

An addictive and surprisingly complex take on the winning PokΓ©mon formula. Will more than likely keep me coming back for many months.

Jessica Jones

A dark and depressing look at addiction, abuse and guilt wrapped up in a surprisingly entertaining superhero show. The first season is astounding; the second struggles finding the light outside of its immense shadow.

Terry Pratchett: Back in Black

A fitting tribute to an amazing man and author. If you're a fan of Discworld or anything Pratchett, do not miss this documentary.

The Mentalist

Quite possible the best reworking of Holmes put to the small screen and an extremely enjoyable, consistent, and intriguing procedural. Better yet, the seasons of mystery actually get a competent and enthralling conclusion.

Moomins on the Riviera

An amusing and acceptably surreal entry into the much-loved series. If you (or your kids) are a fan then definitely worth a watch, but this isn't quite an instant classic.
