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…
Martin Harris has worn a lot of hats in his career sports journalist, rock musician, video game icon and now a face in the latest Superman reboot. From swapping stories with co-stars to taking acting cues from James Gunn, Harris brings a mix of humility, enthusiasm, and a knack for great behind-the-scenes anecdotes. Over the…
I am not really a big K-POP person, but I have to say, I really enjoyed the storyline of this one. The music was honestly way better than I expected, and I even ended up adding a couple of the songs to my playlist. I went into it thinking, “Okay, this is probably not my thing,” but…
Something I spotted in The First Shadow might be the missing piece of the Season 5 puzzle. After seeing Stranger Things: The First Shadow at the theatre for the second time, I was amazed all over again but this time, I left with my brain spinning, trying to figure out what the elusive easter egg might be for the…
I think the critics have got this one wrong. The second season of Annika just landed on BBC iPlayer this week, and honestly, it’s perfectly watchable, more than that, it’s gripping, clever, and completely unique in how it’s told.

“Wherever this blood leads. I need you to fight one last time. Let’s end this, kid.” This chilling line closes the official teaser for Stranger Things Season 5 and I had goosebumps. The teaser doesn’t reveal much, but what it does show is powerful and emotionally intense. One of the most heart-wrenching moments was seeing Lucas desperately trying…
Yesterday, HBO released the first on-set photo of Nick Frost as Hagrid in the upcoming Harry Potter series, and it’s already stirring a lot of opinions online. Starting with Hagrid: I don’t mind the outfit. The olive-green jacket and striped T-shirt actually suit both Nick Frost and the character quite well. However, his beard and…
I’ve been saying it all year 2025 is shaping up to be the year of television, and Ballard is more proof of that. While movies this year have been sluggish filled with remakes and lacking in originality (even the new F1 film feels like a carbon copy of Top Gun, right down to sharing the same director) TV…
Apple TV’s Black Bird is an incredible show that’s been on my watch list for some time now and if you’re a fan of gripping true crime dramas, it absolutely deserves a spot on yours too. This six-part limited series is a masterclass in storytelling, even though it first premiered in 2022. If you’re feeling burnt out…
