Ratchet & Clank

Ratchet & Clank

Ratchet is the last of his kind, a foolhardy lombax who grew up without a family. Clank is a pint-sized robot with more brains than brawn. After stumbling upon a weapon that can destroy entire planets, they join forces with a team of do-gooders known as the Galactic Rangers. Together, they must stop the evil alien Chairman Drek from utilizing this dangerous technology. Along the way, Ratchet and Clank learn valuable lessons about heroism, friendship and discovering one's own identity.

Sony brings the classic Playstation video game heroes to the big screen but in the end it directed more into the fans then the mainstream audience.

Captain America Civil War

Captain America Civil War

Political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability when the actions of the Avengers lead to collateral damage. The new status quo deeply divides members of the team. Captain America (Chris Evans) believes superheroes should remain free to defend humanity without government interference. Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) sharply disagrees and supports oversight. As the debate escalates into an all-out feud, everyone must pick a side.

Dealing with revenge and loyalty this new entry in the Marvel Cinematic Universe proves that you can do a film with multiple characters. Spider-Man, Black Panther and Ant-Man steals the show. One of the absolute best superhero films of all time.

Director: Joe Russo & Anthony Russo
Running time: 146 minutes
Released: 2016
