Now that is what I have been waiting for from House of the Dragon for quite some time. That conversation between Rhaenyra and Alicent was the epitome of what makes a tragedy a great tragedy. That moment of realization that one single misstep, one choice, one misunderstanding set in motion something so complex and unstoppable […]
The first portion of this review will contain some general thoughts about season three of The Bear. The second portion will have spoiler-filled, specific thoughts on what worked and what didn’t about this season. But fear not! There will be a clear delineation between the two sections, just in case you haven’t finished your binge […]
Horizon: An American Saga – Chapter 1 is the start of a four-part Western epic and a passion project for Kevin Costner, who takes the director’s chair for the first time since 2003’s Open Range. In 1859 more settlers are coming to the American West. Many are drawn to a new settlement called Horizon, but it is a […]
Something in the Water is the feature film debut of art director turned filmmaker Hayley Easton Street. What she offered is a British spin on the survival-thriller. A group of five friends travel to the Caribbean for Lizzie’s (Lauren Lyle) wedding. However, there’s tension within the group because Meg (Hiftu Quasem) and Kayla (Natalie Mitson), had […]
I am genuinely perplexed as to exactly what Leslye Headland and her writing staff are trying to do with The Acolyte at this stage of the game. It appeared that the reveal of Qimir as The Master was meant to be a surprise of some kind, when the series not only completely tipped its hand […]

Danny Lyon (Mike Faist) is a photojournalist who interviews members of The Vandals biker gang from 1965 to 1973. His main interviewee is Kathy (Jodie Comer), the wife of […]
After last week’s relatively disappointing premiere episode (in which nothing really happened until the close – and I’ve since been informed that the Blood and Cheese incident from the book is much more disturbing than the one presented in the series, which further adds to the disappointment), this week’s installment of House of the Dragon […]
The Exorcism is the second exorcism horror film to star Russell Crowe in recent times. This time the Australian actor is suffering from being processed instead of casting out demons. Anthony “Tony” Miller (Crowe) is an actor preparing for his comeback role after a highly publicised drug addiction problem. He gets offered a role in the […]
After the epic close of last week’s episode, I expected an equally epic conclusion to the story. Alas, what we got was a mixed bag from a storytelling perspective, with our heroes defeating the seemingly undefeatable villain with very little effort on the part of The Doctor. The Ruby reveal, while anti-climactic in the end, […]

This bright future has not come to pass and now we are starting to see signs of the streaming crunch. […]
