It is always better to be late than to never be. A solo Scarlett Johansson film was long delayed for Marvel Cinematic Universe and we finally got it.

Plot is set between Captain America: Civil War (2016) and Avengers: Infinity War (2018). Avengers are disbanded and Natasha Romanoff is an international fugitive. Running is not the point, she just needs to keep herself busy by fighting enemies from her past. 

This film was another pleasant surprise from Disney. Expectations were to just watch the typical superhero - comedy but this is more than that. The plot keeps all your focus there till the finale. In addition, all secondary characters perfectly fit and through the movie you will concern about the fate of each one.

Do not confuse this with the 2006 garbage remake. The Wicker Man (1973) is a classic horror film, one of those that you remember for life.

A police sergeant arrives on a island to investigate a missing child case. A challenging task since all locals are weird pagans and not interested to help him find their own child. He quickly suspects that the child was sacrificed and needs to find proof of what happened. 

The initial 1973 release was not complete as part of the original material was lost after a series of events. Those events include a change in film ownership, some censorship and bad archiving. Time helped in recovering some parts and as of today "The Final Cut" of 2013 is close enough to what was originally intended by Robin Hardy.
