I didn’t love this episode. While it offered some key pieces of character development for three of our characters (despite still only being a guest star – or, perhaps a recurring character – Captain Batel is getting a heck of a lot of screen time), the episode felt a bit muddled at times in how […]
Film criticism has produced some famous personalities and publications. Some famous critics in the US and UK have been Robert Ebert, Gene Siskel, Mark Kermode, Barry Norman, and Kim Newman. YouTube has seen a rise in critics, with one of the most well-known being Chris Struckmann, who is now a filmmaker. However, since the mid-to-late […]
I have to admit, what initially drew me in to watch Code of Silence, the new British drama series, was its basic conceit. Police canteen worker Alison is asked to help out on an investigation into a potential robbery of a high-profile necklace after it becomes clear that the police will not be able to […]
Everything can benefit from having Rhys Darby. And boy, did this outing from Strange New Worlds absolutely soar with his addition to the proceedings as Trelane, a trickster character from The Original Series that we now know – thanks to a delightful voice over appearance from John de Lancie – is officially a part of […]
When you end a season on a cliffhanger and then wait so long to release the next season that the season after that one starts production, it becomes hard to hide whether or not certain characters make it through the resolution of said cliffhanger alive and mostly well.

Because no matter how confusing the mythology gets – or how many […]
This review will contain spoilers for all three seasons of Netflix’s series Squid Game (all of which are currently streaming). If you haven’t watched the entire series, finish it up and then come on back to this review. You have been warned. Squid Game was never going to have a happy ending. This wasn’t going […]
This review contains spoilers for the entirety of season four of the Hulu series The Bear. If you haven’t finished watching the season, read on at your own risk. You have been warned. I wasn’t the biggest fan of The Bear’s third season. Aside from my continued belief that the series is a drama with […]
Smoke, the new thriller from AppleTV+ is a strange series. Not in its subject matter, which is pretty straight forward and easy to follow. But in its writing, its characters, and in several of its leading performances, it was often hard to figure out if the show was trying to be a serious thriller or […]
