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 […]
Wicked Little Letters is a mystery film about the case of the Littlehampton letters and assembles an ensemble cast for a boisterous comedy. Edith Swann (Olivia Colman) is a Christian woman who has been receiving poison pen letters. The prime suspect is her next-door neighbour, Rose Gooding (Jessie Buckley), an Irish woman with no filter. The […]
When discussing the final batch of episodes in The Crown’s sixth and final season with a friend, he mentioned something that got me thinking about how the series slowly, over the course of the last four seasons, fell apart. He lamented that the latter seasons of the series couldn’t manage to capture the heart and […]
Willy Wonka is probably Roald Dahl’s most recognisable character, appearing in two novels, two adaptations of Charlie of the Chocolate Factory, and the Gene Wilder version being lovingly parodied in numerous American shows. The team behind the Paddington Movies aims to make a prequel about Willy Wonka and how he became the famous chocolatier. Willy Wonka (Timothée Chalamet) arrives in […]
So, if the radiation at the Skrull compound was so intense that Gravik expected Fury to be a shaking mess even with his iodide pills, just how were all those captured humans able to survive hooked up to the machines for that long? Does pumping them full of iodide keep them alive? Or would there […]

Sigh. G’iah, we hardly knew ya. (Seriously, thanks to an utter lack of character development and a narrative that has been so concerned with showing us various plots to get humans to kill off each other that are so thinly developed that we only hear about them moments before their execution so we’re half in […]
Well, two episodes into Secret Invasion and it appears that only Olivia Colman is having any fun with the rather crazy and outlandish story we’re in the middle of. Her unrestrained glee at getting to torture the captured Skrull operative certainly brought some energy to a rather uninspired episode of television. If the series can’t […]
I have very high hopes for Secret Invasion, the latest entry in the now sprawling MCU – a series that has had far more misses than hits in the last couple of years. Billed as an espionage series and starring a murderer’s row of incredible actors – Samuel L. Jackson reprising his role as Nick […]

Puss in Boots (Antonio Banderas) is a famed and popular hero. When he defeats a giant the famous feline loses his life, leaving him with only one life left. Puss also […]
