In the previous Britflix retrospective, I looked at one of my favourite British horror films, 28 Days Later. So, it seemed fair to look at the sequel that’s celebrating its 15th anniversary. 28 weeks after the rage virus outbreak the American military declare Britain is safe for repatriation and the Isle of Dogs is declared a […]

Hawkeye – So This is Christmas? Review
If there’s one criticism that can be levied against the slate of Disney+ MCU television shows it’s that they have trouble with endings. WandaVision, which was one of the best MCU offerings to date, stumbled at the close. Loki packed a punch, but also needed to introduce a villain for a future MCU project, so […]
Hawkeye – Ronin Review
It appears that my worries following last week’s episode of Hawkeye (that the show wouldn’t be able to adequately wrap up its every increasing list of storylines by series’ end) were unfounded, as this penultimate episode managed to pare down the list of remaining arcs to a precious few heading into next week’s finale. And […]
Hawkeye – Partners, Am I Right? Review
So, Yelena showed up earlier than I had both predicted and hoped, which in an already over-stuffed episode, may signal that the Hawkeye arc is getting a bit too crowded as the series approaches its final two episodes. But outside of that reveal – and the confusing fight sequence that came about from it – […]
Hawkeye – Echoes Review
As Hawkeye races towards its climax (strange to say three episodes into a series, but with only three episodes remaining in the show – or in the season, depending on how things ultimately shake out – we’re rapidly approaching the endgame mere moments after we started the journey), the battle lines have been drawn, the […]
Hawkeye – Never Meet Your Heroes/Hide and Seek Review
Well, here we are again – diving into yet another MCU Disney+ series; this time, dealing with the oft forgotten original Avenger, Hawkeye. I have to admit, much like with Wanda, I was never a huge Hawkeye fan – no offense to Jeremy Renner, but the bow and arrow toting superhero was never prominent enough […]
Mayor of Kingstown Review
With a cast that boast names like Jeremy Renner, Diane Wiest, and Kyle Chandler, and Taylor Sheridan – the co-creator of Yellowstone – as a co-creator and showrunner (the other half of the creative team is Hugh Dillion, who also co-stars on the series), one can’t help but hope a series like Mayor of Kingstown will live up […]
The Marvel Cinematic Universe: Worst to Best
It is a hell of a time to be a Marvel fan. The Marvel Cinematic Universe has been dominating the box-office with many being critical darlings and financial successes. Marvel Studios has been able to release 23 films over the course of 11 years; so averaging two films a year. Because Marvel has been able to produce […]
