THOR: RAGNARÖK (Theatrical Release USA 2017)

 Ben Meyers’ Rating: 4.3|5.0 Starsìììì 

Thor: Ragnarök—a better Marvel film—incorporates much more comedy into its dialogue and storyline. This welcome diversion increases the entertainment value and makes it unique among the more serious, action-oriented superhero movies. Chris Hemsworth reprises his role as Thor. The movie works on a creative and highly original structuring than previous Thor-related stories. Good watch, worth both time and money expenditure.

JURASSIC WORLD: DOMINION (Theatrical Release USA 2022)

 Ben Meyers’ Rating: 4.0|5.0 Starsìììì 

Jurassic World Dominion combines the cast from Jurassic Park with the cast of Jurassic World. This makes a noticeable splash onscreen that can be appreciated most by audiences who have followed both the Jurassic Park and Jurassic World series. The film almost categorizes itself as a run-of-the-mill dinosaur movie, but it is watchable and, for fans of the series, will provide a good walk down memory lane.
