The first season finale of The Last of Us was excellent for a number of reasons. Strong performances, once again, from our two leads – along with some great work from Merle Dandridge in her return as Marlene and Ashley Johnson (the video game’s Ellie) as Ellie’s mother, Anna.* A story that was unafraid to […]
Based on a Spanish film, Champions is a sports comedy-drama from one half of the Farrelly Brothers. Marcus Marakovich (Woody Harrelson) is a basketball coach who is tactically brilliant but with poor man-management skills. He gets fired from his job with the Iowa Stallions after getting into a fight with his boss and things become worse for him after a drink-driving […]
I suspect there’s little, if anything, I or any other critic could write about the third (and possibly final?) season of Ted Lasso that could either dissuade someone or convince someone to watch the series at this point. At this stage in the game, you’ve either been thoroughly charmed by the fish out of water […]
Since its debut on HBO Max on January 12, 2023, Velma, the mature animated mystery horror comedy series has made the rounds either on social media platforms like Tumblr, Facebook, and Tik Tok, or in rants by YouTubers, who are hate-watching the series while trying to monetize off people’s anger. The series reception has been […]
Is it bad that Captain Shaw might be my favorite character on Star Trek: Picard this season? Ok, fine, I suppose he isn’t my favorite character, but he’s a symptom of the larger element of what is making the series feel so different this time around: fun. Everyone, from Patrick Stewart on down, is clearly […]
Well, it looks like we found the one person who can break through Bo-Katan’s tough, too-cool-for-school exterior: Grogu. Because when that little guy came rushing back to her throne room, all worried for his dad, she was pretty quick to jump into action. She was also pretty quick to pick up that dark saber and […]
Ok. I’m going to say my piece on the official Jack Crusher paternity reveal upfront in this review and then suspend my disbelief for the remainder of the series. Otherwise, I know it’s going to annoy me throughout the remainder of the season and, really, there are enough interesting mysteries still in place in this […]
Adonis Creed returns for another cinematic bout with Creed III. This time he must confront his own past, both literally and metaphorically. Creed (Michael B. Jordan) retires from boxing after becoming the unified heavyweight champ of the world. He settles down with Bianca (Tessa Thompson) and their daughter, Amara (Mile Davis-Kent), and works as a boxing […]
My god, is Bella Ramsey a great actor. That’s what I found myself saying over and over to myself following the close of this week’s The Last of Us. After starting the series off as the closed-off counterpart to Joel – a character we knew far more about than we did Ellie, Ramsey has gotten […]
Cocaine Bear was a film that blew up on the internet, or at least on Film Twitter. The question is could it live up to the online hype? The year is 1985 and drugs are smuggled into the United States. When a smuggler’s plane suffers from mechanical failure the pilot drops his illicit cargo into Chattahoochee-Oconee […]
