Castle Season 6 Episode 18 Review The Way Of The Ninja

6.18 The Way Of The Ninja Normally, I think I would have enjoyed The Way of the Ninja. It is, after all, one of the most entertaining kinds of Castle stories: a case where many of the facts seem to actively support Castle’s weekly far-fetched theory to an uncomfortable degree and thus provides the writer with unnecessary encouragement for his wild imagination. Castle and ninjas should be an irresistible combo....

Castle Season 6 Episode 22 Review Veritas

6.22 Veritas And that heart is Kate Beckett’s. It’s always bothered me just a little bit that that the show is called Castle, because Rick Castle is not really the protagonist. Since the beginning of the entire series, Castle’s character has not changed all that much. Sure, he was supposedly this playboy who wined and dined the most gorgeous women in Manhattan until he met Beckett, but the simple truth is that the show has never truly sold that version of Castle....

Castle Season 8 Episodes 13 14 Review And Justice For All The G D S

8.13 And Justice For All & 8.14 The G.D.S. And Justice For All is one of the sub-genres of Castle that I both love and hate. As an American, I appreciate anytime a show that doesn’t have to takes on a political issue and does something enlightening with it. And a few months ago, the topic of illegal immigrants being extorted to avoid deportation, and a sitting judge making kickbacks off funnelling those immigrants who cannot afford the payments into the private prison industry, was one that might have seemed, in my country, like it would have met with universal condemnation—and thus being a politically safe one to base this week’s mystery in....

Chuck Season 3 Episode 9 Review

Last week I, and a significant number of other people, lambasted this show for where it went and how entirely wrong it all felt. In retrospect, a week is a long time in TV land I guess, because Chuck came back with the afterburners lit in an episode that can only be described as an absolute tele-visual triumph! The story all revolves around Chuck being left alone in Castle because of his failure to flash, while Daniel and Sarah go and pose as newlyweds....

Community Season 3 Episode 11 Review Urban Matrimony And The Sandwich Arts Review

This review contains spoilers. Finally back on our screens after its extended suspension for alleged incomprehensible behaviour, Community’s all-too-quirky students cordially invite you to a wedding – Greendale style… Yes, you read that right. A wedding. At Greendale. Classy. And who’s the poor soul that has to spend her wedding day looking at Leonard and listening to Jeff and Britta whine? Who else but Shirley. Thanks to a surprise proposal in the college cafeteria – again, classy – Shirley will once again be a happily married woman....

Community Season 3 Episode 7 Review Studies In Modern Movement

In a neat little pick up from a couple of episodes ago, this week saw Community’s most uptight resident, otherwise known as Annie, finally move out of the deadbeat apartment, and into the land of make believe with Troy and Abed. Beats the hell out of Spaghetti, right? Introducing us to a whole new side of Troy and Abed, one that has only been hinted at before, the news that the boys have a replica of the holodeck in their apartment, where they play out their presumably more private fantasies (they play out all the non-private ones in full view of the entire student body) was hilarious, particularly given that they expected Annie to sleep in the front room, thus leaving the fantasy room intact....

Copper Season 1 Finale Review A Vast And Fiendish Plot

1.10 A Vast And Fiendish Plot I hate to say this about the season finale, but A Vast and Fiendish Plot is not one of the season’s best episodes. Its main concern is with Kennedy’s plot to burn New York to the ground, but we already know that New York did not burn to the ground in 1864 and the episode did nothing surprising with Corcoran and co.’s fight to prevent it....

Deadly Blessing Blu Ray Review

Although Craven continued to dabble in exploitation cinema after The Hills Have Eyes (he served as cinematographer on The Evolution Of Snuff in 1978), the end of the 70s saw him gradually shuffle towards the mainstream; 1978’s Stranger In Our House (also known as Summer Of Fear) was a relatively tame made-for-TV horror flick, and even starred a well-known actress: Linda Blair, who’d just survived the traumatic experience of making Exorcist II: The Heretic with John Boorman....

Defiance Slouching Towards Bethlehem Review

That being said, this week’s crime may have been a little bit TOO easily solved. Don’t get me wrong, the terrorist plot to bomb New York, the heart of the E-Rep government, had a grand enough scope to justify Nolan’s involvement in the government’s affairs. Thousands of lives were at stake after all, and obviously the Votanis Collective couldn’t risk the exact tactic Viceroy Mercado chose to employ: an EGO extraction!...

Despicable Me 2 Review

They encapsulate after all what ultimately makes Despicable Me 2 quite hard to resist: they, and it, try so hard to make you laugh, that they’re more likely to succeed than not. Granted, sometimes, when all else fails, the film calls for a fart joke or something pretty straightforward, just to keep the engine ticking over. In at least one case, a pretty funny fart joke too. But it’s comedy, and quite a range of it, where Despicable Me 2 is on its soundest footing....

Paul Rudd plays Tim, a financial analyst who wants to make the big time and climb his way to the seventh floor, where the executives, movers, shakers, and general money-makers reside. He catches the eye of his boss, Fender (Bruce Greenwood), after coming up with a brilliant plan to get his foot in the door of Swiss industrialist Müeller (David Walliams), whose company is failing due to poor management, but whose personal fortune is massive and in need of financial managing....

Doctor Who The Bells Of St John Spoiler Free Review

It’s best that we quickly kick off with our usual but necessary explanation of what we mean by spoiler-free in our reviews. Feel free to jump a paragraph if you’ve read our spoiler-free stuff before. All that said, on with the review then… We like to think that when Steven Moffat sat down to write The Bells Of St John, he was also trying to watch a little bit of Eastern horror on a laptop, one that wasn’t really working properly, all the while as a Google StreetView car drove down his road gathering its data....

Doctor Who The Rings Of Akhaten Spoiler Free Review

Spectacle is a good word to describe this one, as it happens. It’s sadly ironic that in the week after it’s announced that The Mill is shutting down its television effects department, that some more of its striking visual work should be showcased on primetime BBC One. But striking it most certainly is. There are quite a few moments in this episode that are just glorious to look at, and while one or two parts of the effects work aren’t quite as convincing a bit later on, at its best, The Rings Of Akhaten is big, cinematic widescreen television....

Doctor Who Series 10 The Eaters Of Light Review

10.10 The Eaters Of Light Thanks to a surprisingly long epilogue at the end of The Eaters Of Light, it feels as though the stage is tantalisingly now set for wherever Steven Moffat’s very last Doctor Who finale two-parter is set to take us. With the story of this particular episode told before 40 minutes had been clocked up, we were left in the TARDIS with the Doctor, Missy, Nardole and Bill....

Dracula Season 1 Finale Review Let There Be Light

1.10 Let There Be Light I think the largest part of my resentment comes from the knowledge that there are a lot of very good writers, actors, and directors working in television right now – creative minds struggling under the weight of cancellation-happy broadcast and cable networks for a shot to tell their stories. So to spend months regularly viewing a show that was spared the obstacles that most have to overcome, watching it fail to rise above a level of uneven mediocrity has been fairly painful....

Dragon Ball Super Episode 37 Review Don T Forget Your Saiyan Pride Vegeta Vs The 6Th Universe S Saiyan

Dragon Ball Super Episode 37 “Don’t forget that feeling.” The audience quickly learns that Universe 6’s Saiyans are actually a chivalrous and heroic breed (not to mention, tail-less) from Planet Sadala, rather than the power-hungry conquistadors that the audience has gotten used to from Universe 7’s Planet Vegeta. In fact, Saiyans are almost Universe 6’s equivalent of the Guardians of the Galaxy. They’re galactic protectors and Vegeta is endlessly fascinated by this alternate take on his heritage....

Elementary Season 4 Episode 1 Review The Past Is Parent

4.1 The Past Is Parent Pleasant though it was to go back to the Brownstone, The Past Is Parent had a great deal more to offer than the comfort of familiarity. It was comfortably the show’s best episode since The One That Got Away, also written by showrunner Robert Doherty. There was a captivating murder case, emotionally satisfying character work, and the arrival of a man no less anticipated than Godot....

Extant Wish You Were Here Review

Thank goodness Molly’s husband is no longer in the dark about her pregnancy, though; I don’t know that I could have tolerated that for too many weeks. But even though I somewhat expected that secret to come out (thanks a lot, previews), there were still plenty of jaw-droppers in this episode. It should be noted that Molly’s confession came out at yet ANOTHER party, which bothered me at first, but the crowd provided the perfect context for the conversation with Tim, Marcus’ brother, who made a surprise appearance at the soiree....

Falling Skies Strange Brew Review

There are literally 3 episodes left in the season, and the writers decide to waste time by not furthering basically any plot points whatsoever and spending the entire episode on an St. Elsewhere it’s a dream within a dream take the pill to go down the rabbit hole into the Matrix bullzhizzle. Seriously. The entire episode more or less is Tom on one long Eshveni-caused trip. Then we spend the next half hour or so (and this is an hour long show people, so that’s a lot of time to waste) with Tom wandering around an alternate universe where aliens haven’t invaded, but all the characters from the show in his “normal” life are there....
