They say that nearly all movies date, just some quicker than others. Think of the number of thrillers that, before mobile phones, revolved around telephone boxes, couples sleeping in separate beds, or the stop-motion special effects of the 1960s. These things might look quaint now, but they’re usually harmless reminders of the era in which…

MY SECRET SANTA: SWEET CHEMISTRY WRAPPED IN A WEAK SCRIPT.
I don’t know what it is about this year’s Christmas movies, but they just aren’t hitting the same way they have in recent years. My Secret Santa had so much potential, and on paper it should have been one of the charming holiday standouts of the season. The premise is genuinely sweet: a single mom named…
SEAN COMBS THE RECKONING: THE SORDID STORY THAT WONT GO AWAY
As I have said in previous articles during the trial of the Hip-Hop superstar Sean “Diddy” Combs, his conviction for soliciting prostitution could be seen as a let off considering his abusive treatment of women over a long period of time. So, you would think that no matter how aggrieved Combs was with the new…
LETTERMAN’S NEXT GUEST IS THE LIKEABLE, DOWN-TO-EARTH ADAM SANDLER
I was filled with trepidation before watching this Netflix in-depth interview because I have never really warmed to David Letterman. His long-running late-night show on NBC often had me rolling my eyes as he interrupted guests with smug, unfunny comments. However, he seems to have mellowed, and this conversation with the Marmite Adam Sandler is…

BROADCHURCH: THE CRIME DRAMA I CAN’T STOP COMING BACK TO
The first time I watched Broadchurch, I was instantly hooked. You know that feeling when you tell yourself, “I’ll just watch one episode,” and suddenly you’re five deep and emotionally wrecked? That was me. So when I found out the show was coming to Netflix, I didn’t even hesitate I knew I had to watch it…
THE CARMEN FAMILY DEATHS: AUTISM, SUSPICION, AND A TRUE CRIME MYSTERY”
Does having autism make someone more or less likely to become a killer? It’s an uncomfortable question, yet it sits at the heart of this undeniably tragic yet often frustrating documentary. The film never quite knows whether it wants to explore the mystery of a family’s demise or the complexities of neurodivergence, and that tension…
IS IT JUST ME, OR WAS THE STRANGER THINGS TEASER BETTER THAN THE TRAILER?
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…
Selling Sunset Season 9: Glamour, Grit, and the Gossip That Never Ends
Selling Sunset Season 9 proves the drama at the Oppenheim Group is as shiny and relentless as ever. You’ve still got the jaw-dropping real estate, the glossy open houses, and agents who seem to sell gossip as much as they sell houses. It’s high heels, high drama, and high-end listings all the way. The season picks…
PHYSICAL 100 ASIA REVIEW: STRENGTH, SWEAT, AND SERIOUS DRAMA
I do love a game show, and I must say this is a very entertaining one. Netflix has already released the first four episodes, and I’m absolutely hooked. This is a brilliant Korean game show featuring the top athletes from eight different countries. This time round it’s a team competition, and it feels far more…
