House of the Dragon – A Son for a Son Review
For a story that only has so many big moments – and one that already exists fully-formed in book form with all those moments laid out clearly – I honestly didn’t expect that the second season premiere of House of the Dragon would give us one of them right out of the gate. But that’s […]
Doctor Who – The Legend of Ruby Sunday Review
We’ve come to the close of this season of Doctor Who, which means that it’s time for Russell T. Davies to dive into the lingering mysteries of the season, hopefully offering explanations that make sense (and resonate on a deeper, character-driven level of storytelling). With part one of the two-part season finale, we get the […]
The Acolyte – Destiny Review
If you’ve followed any of the social media posting around The Acolyte, you’ve probably heard that this week’s episode, “Destiny,” was going to “break Star Wars.” Well, we’ve all seen it now, and I think we can agree* that while the episode injected some interesting new mythology into the world of Star Wars, it definitely […]

Bad Boys: Ride or Die Review
Will Smith and Martin Lawrence return for a fourth entry in the Bad Boys series. This time the buddy duo are forced to go on the run and clear their names. Mike Lowrey (Smith) has done something his friends never thought he would: settle down and marry a nice woman. But Mike is haunted by the death of […]
Doctor Who – Rogue Review
After last week’s emotional gut-punch of a final note (which we didn’t get any further commentary on this week, not that it was expected but it might have been a nice touch), this episode was much more in the vein of your traditional Doctor Who adventure – except much more queer than in past seasons […]
