When I was first made aware of Benedetta, Paul Verhoeven’s latest film, earlier this year, it was pitched to me as a psychosexual story about two nuns in the 17th century. And while sure, that’s definitely an element of the story – there is absolutely a lesbian love story (and yes, it is a love […]
As Hawkeye races towards its climax (strange to say three episodes into a series, but with only three episodes remaining in the show – or in the season, depending on how things ultimately shake out – we’re rapidly approaching the endgame mere moments after we started the journey), the battle lines have been drawn, the […]
On Friday, we will have to say goodbye to one of television’s smartest comedies when Hulu’s Pen15 wraps up its two-season run with the release of its final seven episodes (dubbed Season Two, Part Two). While I can report that the story itself does come to natural resolution at the end of the series (the […]
What do you get when you combine the frothy fun of RuPaul’s Drag Race with the emotional impact of Queer Eye? That would be We’re Here, the HBO Max series that brings drag to small town communities across the US – telling uplifting personal stories and making sure you cry at least once an episode […]
Well, here we are again – diving into yet another MCU Disney+ series; this time, dealing with the oft forgotten original Avenger, Hawkeye. I have to admit, much like with Wanda, I was never a huge Hawkeye fan – no offense to Jeremy Renner, but the bow and arrow toting superhero was never prominent enough […]
Utterly delightful. That’s the phrase I used to describe season two of Hulu’s The Great to a friend last week. And that’s ultimately what the season is – utterly delightful. Sure, there’s squabbles (Catherine is attempting a coup against her husband, Russia’s emperor, after all) and not all the jokes land as well as could […]
With a cast that boast names like Jeremy Renner, Diane Wiest, and Kyle Chandler, and Taylor Sheridan – the co-creator of Yellowstone – as a co-creator and showrunner (the other half of the creative team is Hugh Dillion, who also co-stars on the series), one can’t help but hope a series like Mayor of Kingstown will live up […]
Putting Will Ferrell, Paul Rudd, Kathryn Hahn, and Casey Wilson into a limited dark comedy series sounds like the perfect recipe for a hit. And I will admit to being incredibly excited to dig into The Shrink Next Door, the eight-episode AppleTV+ series that has all four sensational actors bouncing off each other. But boy, […]
Belfast, writer-director Kenneth Branagh’s semi-autobiographical story about a snippet of his childhood in the capital city of Northern Ireland is, for my money, his best film since Much Ado About Nothing all the way back in the early ‘90s. For a filmmaker who has a tendency to get a bit too wrapped up in the […]
Invasion, the new AppleTV+ drama from co-creators Simon Kinberg and David Weil, is – you guessed it – about an alien invasion of Earth. Or, at least that’s what one assumes it is about, as after watching the five episodes initially provided to critics, there’s a whole lot of discussion, exposition, and attempts at character […]
