SUPERMAN: RED SON
Available to rent now on Virgin Movies from €5.99
Prepare to see Krypton’s favourite son in a whole new light! This inventive take on the Man of Steel’s story sees Kal-El land on the other side of the Iron Curtain – leading to an altogether different path! The amazing animation certainly looks the part, but it’s the unique story that shines brightest; indeed, the themes of unity against a massive foe seem well-timed, too...
WONDER WOMAN
Available to rent now on Virgin Movies from €3.99
The awesome Amazonian is brought to life in winning fashion, as creativity, chaos and the charisma of Gal Gadot as Diana Prince combine in one intoxicating cocktail! The action sequences are superb, but so too are the moments of quiet compassion and contemplation; balancing dynamism and depth is never an easy accomplishment, but this most modern of masterpieces excels on all fronts!
JOHN WICK: CHAPTER 3 – PARABELLUM
Available to rent now on Virgin Movies from €2.99
OK, so he might not have a cape – and his exploits aren’t quite family fare! – but don’t tell us that the hitman isn’t as heroic a character as film has provided in the past decade. Keanu Reeves is at his all-action best in the third go-round of this sensational series; joined by the likes of Halle Berry, he’s not short of backup, either! Cracking choreography, phenomenal fight scenes; if you feel your days are short of excitement, here’s the fix!
BATMAN BEGINS
Available to rent now on Virgin Movies from €2.99
Christopher Nolan is regarded as one of the most distinctive directors working today – so it was no surprise that when he brought the Caped Crusader to the 21st century, he did so in style! Christian Bale is fantastic as Bruce Wayne himself in this outstanding origin story, that delves into darkness with aplomb. And, if you fancy more then you’re in luck; the rest of the series is also available to rent on Virgin Movies!
CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR
Available to rent now on Virgin Movies from €2.99
Know what’s better than watching one of your favourite superheroes? Watching a whole load of them! This seminal chapter of the MCU sees Steve Rogers and Tony Stark square off – with the rest of the crew taking sides as battle lines are drawn! Just what a brilliant blockbuster should be, the plentiful thrills and spills are balanced with humour and heart; together, it all makes for an end product that’s nothing short of epic!
A red-hot bundle including superfast broadband, TV and home phone from Virgin Media – now that’s what we call super! Click here to find out more...
