“It really was an adventure of a lifetime.” Those are the final words spoken in One Last Adventure: The Making of Stranger Things 5, and they land with the kind of weight only a decade-long journey can earn. I started watching Stranger Things when I was 15 years old. Now I’m 25, and like the cast who grew…
“There are at least two sides of every story. Yours and mine, ours and theirs, his and hers, which means that someone is always lying … People might recognise my face; they maybe even know my name, but they will never know who I am.” That idea becomes the backbone of His and Hers, a thriller…
Movies this year have truly started out with a bang, and People We Meet on Vacation was easily one of my most anticipated films. I’m happy to say it really did deliver. From the opening moments, it felt like the kind of romance movie we don’t get enough of anymore. Originally a novel by Emily Henry, this…
I loved this show, which is why the overwhelmingly harsh critical response feels so baffling. Big newspapers and TV review shows really need to broaden their horizons. Nearly every review I’ve read has given Lynley a poor rating, and while critics are free to disagree, some of the reasoning feels unnecessarily severe. I also didn’t realise until…
Who would have thought that Ricky Gervais would finally seem old hat and dare I say it, boring. The creator of the hugely influential The Office and my personal favourite Extra’s has made some great stand up shows for Netflix as well as his hilarious time hosting The Golden Globes, but Mortality can’t be added…
I know this is a slightly different kind of review than what you might usually read, but no one really talks about comedy anymore. And honestly, I think right now we could all use a good laugh. With how negative the news cycle is and how much bad stuff people are constantly reading, comedy feels…
Run Away is a slow burner and honestly, it needs to be. This isn’t the kind of story you rush, because every layer is there for a reason. At the centre of it all is Simon Greene (James Nesbitt), a successful, devoted husband and father of three whose solid, comfortable life starts to unravel when his…
In my opinion, Stranger Things ended in the best possible way. Endings are hard especially for a show this loved, this long-running, and this layered but somehow the Duffer Brothers managed to pull it off. The finale was intense, emotional, clever, and most importantly, satisfying without being over-explained. The final fight scene alone proves how strong the…
The Death in Paradise Christmas special once again delivers a polished and reassuring piece of festive television. Rather than attempting to reinvent itself, the series leans into what it does best: a gentle murder mystery, strong ensemble chemistry, and a tone that prioritises warmth and accessibility. The episode also demonstrates how effectively the franchise now operates as…
Few rom-coms have aged as gracefully or as hilariously as When Harry Met Sally. “You’ll have what I’m having.” That line, shouted across a bustling New York deli, has become cinematic legend and perfectly sums up why this film continues to captivate audiences decades after its release. For those who haven’t seen it yet, here’s the…
