The Social Reckoning is the spiritual sequel to 2010’s The Social Network. The sequel looks at how Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg not only knew about the social harm the platform has caused but actively encouraged it. Jeff Horwitz (Jeremy Allan White) is an investigative journalist who takes up a tech reporting job in the Wall […]
Crystal Lake Review
A prequel is a thorny undertaking. First, you need to justify why anyone needs to learn the story of what happened before the seminal (or, really, just popular) story that succeeds this jump into the past. And once you’ve done that, the story you’re telling needs to be good enough to stand up to that […]
VisionQuest – No Strings Review
Welcome to our weekly reviews of VisionQuest, the final piece in the Wanda-Vision trilogy of MCU shows and what appears to be the last television outing for the MCU for the foreseeable future as Disney looks to focus back on film for their superheroes moving forward. Where WandaVision put the focus on Wanda Maximoff and the […]
The Uprising Review
The Peasants’ Revolt is one of the great historical events that schoolchildren in England are taught. It finally gets a film retelling thanks to Paul Greengrass. In 1381, England was reeling from the aftermath of the Black Death. Half the population had died, and everyone had lost someone, including a nameless ploughman (Andrew Garfield) in […]
Other Mommy Review
Blumhouse and Atomic Monster aced the marketing game for Other Mommy. Its trailer debuted before The Odyssey, and reportedly played ahead of every screening. Promoting it in front of the highest-grossing R-rated movie of the year gave them even more bang for their buck, ensuring it would get maximum attention. Especially since its trailer pulled […]
Avatar: Seven Havens – Episodes 1 to 3 Review

The first three episodes set up a radically new world. 225 years ago, the Avatar caused the Cataclysm, a world-ending event. Civilisation has rebuilt itself as The Seven Havens, with one of them being Ellora. In Ellora are long-lost twin sisters Pavi (Saheli […]
Historia: The Social Network
Mark Zuckerberg is seen as the man who revolutionised online communication. He is also one of the most divisive men in the world. Seeing that The Social Network had earned a spiritual sequel, now seems like a great time to revisit the 2010 film. In 2003, Mark Zuckerberg (Jesse Eisenberg) was an arrogant Harvard sophomore […]
The Fix Review
After learning from their old boss of millions of dollars hidden inside the wall of a hotel room in Tehran, a team of disaffected ex-CIA officers sneak into the Iranian capital in search of a big payday. You could say the timing of this movie’s release is unfortunate. More so due to current events, than […]
Ted Lasso – Being Alive Review
Well, that was a fitting end to a truly muddled season of television. For all of the positive gains Ted Lasso made over the last several episodes – all of which pulled the focus from the host of returning characters (save for Roy and Keeley) and onto the new members of the Lady Greyhounds – […]
Digger Review
Tom Cruise is an actor who doesn’t need an introduction. He is arguably the last true movie star whose presence has been enough to sell a film. He takes one of his biggest gambles in a long time by playing against type in a climate change satire directed by the acclaimed Mexican filmmaker Alejandro González […]
