Gaby Dellal’s Park Avenue is a love letter to New York and my god, she’s written it beautifully. The city hums through every frame, not just as a setting but as a heartbeat.

After years of buildup, the final season of Stranger Things is finally on the horizon and the new trailer has fans buzzing with excitement and debate. Personally, I have mixed feelings. The teaser honestly felt stronger than the full trailer. It looked epic, but emotionally, it left me a bit underwhelmed. Not much actually happened, except for…
Siblings Daisy May and Charlie Cooper, best known for their sharp comedy in This Country, have turned their attention to the supernatural with their new BBC series Nightwatch. The premise sounds intriguing the duo spend nights in some of Britain’s most haunted places, from eerie prisons to pubs with centuries of ghostly tales. On paper, it’s the…

This might be one of the weakest Harlan Coben adaptations yet, which is disappointing because it had so much potential. Joel Lazarus, or “Laz” (Sam Claflin), follows in his father’s footsteps as a psychiatrist. To clear up any confusion early on the father…
Every so often, a theatre year comes along that reminds me exactly why I fell in love with live performance in the first place. This has been one of those years. From intimate two-handers to jaw-dropping spectacle, I’ve laughed, held my breath, and been completely floored more times than I can count. Narrowing it down…

Thankfully, there’s no drama (yet) with this production… but hey, there’s still time for the “Colleen Curse” to show up. The film…
Every once in a while, a documentary comes along that reminds us why we fell in love with the movies in the first place. John Candy: I Like Me is one of those films. It’s not just about a comedian it’s about a man who made millions laugh while quietly carrying the kind of heart and humility…
If you’re anything like me, you’ve probably noticed the same films appearing on every “Top 10” list ever. Don’t get me wrong I love The Shawshank Redemption as much as the next person but what about the movies that slipped through the cracks?

“I want to win without him. In the ring it’s quiet it’s mine. There is chaos in the outside world, but it is quiet in here.” That’s one of the lines Sydney Sweeney delivers as Christy, and it perfectly captures the heart of Christy: the calm inside the storm. This is a powerful, gripping biopic that…
