Hamnet: Movie Review
I'm a bit later than most to the Hamnet party, but I was excited to sit down and finally watch this as everyone's been talking about it. Chloe Zhao's historical tragedy has been the cause of discussion amongst film lovers for the past couple of months, not to mention that it's been receiving great critical acclaim. Nominated for no less than eight oscars, Hamnet has been winning big awards such as the Golden Globe for Best Motion Picture Drama. Jessie Buckley has been absolutely sweeping her nominations, and many consider her a lock for the Best Actress Oscar.

Power Rangers Review: "Goldar's Vice Versa"
I promised this quite a bit, not just to myself, but to others in my past Power Rangers Reviews. And as two-time WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels said in a June 2005 episode of Raw, "I made a promise, and I'm here to deliver." I remember this so well for so many reasons, one of them being that for Adam Park, Aisha Campbell, and Rocky DeSantos, this was their first full episode as Power Rangers. All three quickly embraced being part of the sextet, especially Adam, who was ready for anything back in Part II of "The Power Transfer."

2025 in Horror
If the past few years have proven anything, it’s that horror is and always will be the most exciting and inventive type of storytelling. Horror movies have always been respected and appreciated amongst those who love the genre, but it's fair to say that they have been underappreciated and dismissed as not being "serious movies" by the general public, and even by the film industry itself.

Is This Thing On? (2025)
I had a choice this week. I could use my art-house cinema pass to watch a film about grief, or I could go to the city centre multiplex and watch “Is This Thing On?”

The Last of Us: Season 2 — Review
After a highly praised first season, The Last of Us: Season 2 arrives burdened with high expectations—expectations it unfortunately struggles to meet. While the ambition to adapt one of the most controversial and emotionally rich narratives in video game history is admirable, the season falters under the weight of its own storytelling choices. Rather than deepening the characters and moral complexity that defined the source material, the show delivers a disjointed, emotionally flat, and thematically diluted version of a far more compelling story.

Fallout Series Review (Season 2)
After so many underwhelming video game adaptations, Fallout showed everyone how was it done with a knockout opening season in 2024. The second chapter takes a firmer grip on the source material, directly incorporating the lore into the main narrative. For the most part, it’s every bit as effective and engaging as the original.

Knight of the Seven Kingdoms
The first two episodes of Knight of the Seven Kingdoms were a little hard for me to get through. I don’t mind a lack of action if the character arcs are doing a decent job of carrying the story. But the main character Dunc is super annoying and extremely frustrating to watch. The only reason I am even continuing with it is because Egg is a little cutie patootie and I will power through to see his story unfold.

Wonderman
Wonderman was dropped all at once, because the powers that be have no faith in the general public, and I understand that but I think that anyone with an IQ above 10 would have been fine with a week to week release. That said the show is very intriguing so far, it's done a great job of setting things up in these first two episodes.

The Internship
We all know the worst yet most entertaining films are not the ones released in theaters but the ones quietly released on various streaming services and never acknowledged. In that vein, until the industry starts doing some wide releases, our 2026 coverage will be pulled from those obscure places.
