Anyone who watched Ugly Betty back in the early aughts knows that Mark Indelicato is a comedic talent. Sure, he was just a precocious kid back then, but he had incredible comedic timing and could still rip your heartstrings out at a moment’s notice. I had been waiting for a while to see when Hacks […]
A bit of housecleaning before we get into the review of the first three episodes of Andor’s second, and final, season. When it was first announced that these twelve episodes would be released in a set of four triptychs, I wasn’t sure just how I would cover them. And while I will decide with each […]
The Dwarves is the first novel in a fantasy series by German writer Markus Heitz. Heitz sets up to give everyone’s favourite mountain dwellers a chance to lead a fantasy epic. Tungil Bolofar is an unusual dwarf: an orphan who grew up in the Enchanted Realm of Ionandar. Tungil’s the only dwarf in the realm, […]
After dipping his toes in the Rocky series and the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Ryan Coogler makes his first original film since his debut film. In 1932, the Smokestack Twins (both played by Michael B. Jordan) return to the Mississippi Delta after working in the Chicago Underworld for seven years. They plan to open a Juke […]

Okay, Russell T Davies, I can appreciate that fun bit of trolling at the expense of fans and critics you slotted into “Lux.” Meta callouts don’t always work for me, but this one? Yeah, I chuckled. Especially because “Blink” really is the best episode of the modern run of Doctor Who. But you know what? […]
We knew going into this season that part of Deborah’s journey in her foray into hosting a late-night show was going to be learning a bit from Ava about how to manage a staff without flying off the handle and firing them at the drop of a hat. After all, we know Deborah has the […]
Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes use the worst first date imaginable as the set-up for a tight thriller. Violet Gates (Meghann Fahy) is a widowed, single mother and a survivor of domestic violence. She goes on her first date since her husband’s death, meeting Henry Campbell (Brandon Sklenar), a handsome photographer. However, when the date starts, […]

While The Amateur is technically a remake, it’s more akin to last year’s The Fall Guy. Popular culture has largely forgotten the original spy movie (and book), and the marketing for James Hawes’ version has avoided mentioning that source material. Given that neither was very well received, that’s probably for the best, as it gives Rami […]
