OVERCOMPENSATING: A COLLEGE COMEDY THAT MISSES MORE THAN IT LANDS

Posted on September 7, 2025 by Nyah Barnett

I think I might be the only one who doesn’t like this new comedy series on Amazon Prime. I just couldn’t get into it. I like the premise of the show I really do but I just think it didn’t have much depth, and it almost felt like watching raw footage of someone’s first year…

The Thursday Murder Club: A Cozy, Star-Studded Mystery That Delivers

Posted on August 28, 2025August 28, 2025 by Nyah Barnett

Chris Columbus has done an excellent job with this murder mystery film. He has a special place in my heart already, as he directed the first two Harry Potter movies, which defined a big part of my childhood. That nostalgic affection probably made me even more excited to see his take on Richard Osman’s beloved novel. This…

TAYLOR’S GLOW-UP IN THE SUMMER I TURNED PRETTY MADE ME LOVE HER EVEN MORE

Posted on August 22, 2025 by Nyah Barnett

The recent episode of The Summer I Turned Pretty just reminded me why Taylor is quickly becoming one of my favorite characters this season. Honestly, her whole arc has been such a glow-up. She’s still the bold, confident Taylor we’ve always known the one who’s quick with a joke, unafraid to speak her mind, and never short…

“My Oxford Year” Review: Romance, Rain, and a Touch of Poetry

Posted on August 1, 2025 by Nyah Barnett

“This is the messiness of life, and as an annoyingly brilliant man once told me, these are the best bits.” Sofia Carson is on fire with romantic comedies this year, first The Life List, and now My Oxford Year. She has this girl-next-door charm that fits perfectly with these roles. You genuinely believe her as Anna, an…

HAPPY GILMORE 2: SILLY, STAR-STUDDED, AND SURPRISINGLY SENTIMENTAL

Posted on July 29, 2025July 29, 2025 by Nyah Barnett

Happy Gilmore 2 starts with a bang and delivers a hilarious first hour that had me laughing harder than I have in years. The film leans fully into its cornball nature and I loved that about it. It knows what it is and never tries to be anything more than a ridiculous, feel-good comedy. Even though…

HOW BEND IT LIKE BECKHAM BECAME A QUIET CLASSIC 

Posted on July 27, 2025 by Nyah Barnett

When Bend It Like Beckham landed in UK cinemas in 2002, it wasn’t just a charming underdog sports film. It was even if we didn’t fully realise it at the time a cultural moment. A modest British indie about a Punjabi girl in West London defying tradition to chase a football dream, it went on to become…

WHY “WHITE CHICKS” IS STILL FUNNIER THAN MOST MODERN COMEDIES 

Posted on July 23, 2025 by Nyah Barnett

It’s been over 20 years since White Chicks dropped and yet it still has got iconic lines and rewatched like it came out last week.  Why is this chaotic and over the top 2004 comedy aged better than so many of the funnier movies today? Here are 4 reasons why I think it still stands…

Known for her trailblazing work including The Shape of the Pain and her directorial debut at Shakespeare’s Globe, Bagshaw now brings her unique…

HOT TAKES FROM THE STAGE: THE BEST, THE WORST, AND THE UNDERRATED

Posted on July 4, 2025 by Nyah Barnett

Theatre is meant to move, divide, thrill and sometimes completely disappoint. From West End giants to smaller gems, here’s my unapologetically honest breakdown of the most overrated, most underrated, and absolute best theatre productions I’ve seen. Agree, disagree this is my stage, and I’m not holding back. THE MOST OVERRATED MUSICAL – Hadestown I’ve already written a full article explaining…

WATCH THIS / SKIP THAT

Posted on July 3, 2025July 3, 2025 by Nyah Barnett

WATCH THIS – Red, White & Royal Blue This feel-good feature will make you smile from start to finish. Based on Casey McQuiston’s best-selling novel, Red, White & Royal Blue delivers a charming blend of romance, wit, and political intrigue. The highly publicized feud between Alex (Taylor Zakhar Perez), the son of the U.S. President, and Britain’s Prince…
