Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland is one of the most adapted novels to screen and it serves as the inspiration for the horror film Alice in Terrorland. Alice (Lizzy Willis) is a teenage girl who moves in with her grandmother (Rula Lenska) after her parents die in a house fire. Alice’s grandmother tells the […]
House of the Dragon – Smallfolk Review
There have been two background storylines this season that have felt rather clunky in their lead up, but both finally started to pay dividends this week – just in time for each to heavily factor into the anticipated season endgame (which I won’t spoil, don’t worry, but if you’re a book reader, I suspect you’ve […]
The Jetty Review
The Jetty is a female-centric police procedural starring and produced by Jenna Coleman. Ember Manning (Coleman) is a Detective Constable in a small town in Lancashire. The town is infamous for the disappearance of Amy Knightly 17 years prior. When Ember investigates an arson attack on the jetty it spirals into a case involving a pregnant […]
MaXXXine Review
Ti West’s X Trilogy comes to a close with MaXXXine and takes the series to a new genre and location. Six years after the events of X, Maxine Minx (Mia Goth) attempts to transition from pornography to professional acting. Maxine has her big break when she’s cast in the horror movie Puritan II, but this is put in jeopardy when a […]
Halo: The Master Chief Collection Review
Master Chief Petty Officer John-117 is one of the most recognisable characters in gaming and is the de-facto mascot for Xbox. His games were some of the big-ticket items for the consoles and as someone who recently changed from PlayStation to Xbox, Halo: The Master Chief Collection offered my first experience with the franchise. The Master […]
The Acolyte – The Acolyte Review
Oh Vernestra. You’re rapidly getting in over your head and if there’s a season two of The Acolyte, it’s an easy bet to make that all of your machinations are going to start unraveling faster than you can say Darth Plagueis. But, I have to say, even though much of the episode played out in […]
Despicable Me 4 Review
The Despicable Me series and the Minions are extremely popular and a financial juggernaut that made Illumination into one of the biggest animation studios in Hollywood. The series returns for a sixth film. Gru (Steve Carrell) and his family are forced to go into witness protection after his old school rival, Maxine Le Mal (Will […]
Sunny Season One Review
So, I’m a bit late to the party when it comes to Sunny, the new dark comedy (very dark comedy) on AppleTV+. I saw the basic premise – that would be woman is given a robot and it sends her on a journey to try and find her presumed dead husband and son – and […]
House of the Dragon – Regent Review
After last week’s explosive episode, this week’s House of the Dragon was far more concerned with setting the stage for the back half of the season. We checked in with every major player, took stock of where they were and what they were doing and what their next hurdle would be – and laid out […]
The Acolyte – Choice Review
Well, so the truth as to what really went down on Brendock sixteen years ago wasn’t exactly what I predicted last week. For one, Vernestra doesn’t appear to have anything to do with that particular incident (although I suspect mine – and pretty much everyone else’s – prediction that she has a connection to Qimir, […]
