Out of our initial two batches of episodes in this final season of Andor, this triptych was the weaker of the two, spending most of its three hours laying the groundwork for what is likely going to befall Ghorman – and reverberate out and impact all of our characters – in the coming episodes. However, […]
A bit of housecleaning before we get into the review of the first three episodes of Andor’s second, and final, season. When it was first announced that these twelve episodes would be released in a set of four triptychs, I wasn’t sure just how I would cover them. And while I will decide with each […]
Denis Villeneuve and his all-star cast return to the desert planet of Arrakis, with the second part of his adaptation of Dune. The Harkonnens have taken over Arrakis and House Atreides has fallen. However, Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet) and his mother, Lady Jessica (Rebecca Ferguson) survived the attack and joined the Fremen in the depths […]
Of course Cassian and the inmates on Narkina 5 were helping to build the Death Star. Of course they were.

In the interest of honest reviewing, I feel that I should start this review of Andor off with the statement that I wasn’t a fan of Rogue One. I certainly didn’t hate it – I appreciated that the story was allowed to go to darker places than most Star Wars properties and I really liked […]
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 […]
Ten years ago the film adaptation of Mamma Mia was a huge hit, especially in the UK – it made $615.7 million from a $52 million budget. So a sequel has been made and somehow the filmmakers put a lot more effort into this film. Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again is both a sequel and a prequel […]
