Haven Season 4 Episode 6 Review Countdown

4.6 Countdown I’m going to get opinionated here but I can see the sense in creating a school for non-Troubled children away from the public schools. While some of the Troubles are harmless like Jeanine from the Reunion whose Trouble made everything she ate turn into to cake, there is a high volume of Troubles that are deadly or least dangerous without even meaning to be. Don’t believe me? I can make a list....

Helix The Reaping Review

Were there not only one episode left in Helix season one, “The Reaping” might very well have been the one that made me walk away and find another way to spend an hour of my Fridays. I understand that this is pretty cold, and opening a review like this with a sentence like that isn’t the most surefire way to keep you reading (let alone endear myself to Helix fans, of which I’m sure there are at least a few), but it’s the truth....

Heroes Season 3 Episode 11 Review

Episode 11 is the continuation of The Eclipse story that began last week where all the super-people lost their powers once the moon covered the sun. But down to the nuts and bolts, this episode isn’t actually as bad as the previous one, although it’s very predictable and suffers from the multiple plot thread overload that’s wrecked the watchability of this and the previous season. It starts out in the jungle of Haiti, with Peter and The Haitian running away from Baron Samedi, his brother (is that a Live and Let Die reference?...

Heroes Season 3 Episode 20 Review

To my mind this episode had the potential to represent a turning point, or maybe even a pre-emptive strike on the fourth season. It’s the first story credited to the returning script genius of Bryan Fuller. He might not have made Pushing Daisies the hit it might have been, but his sterling work on the first season of Heroes underlines that he’s nothing if not adaptable. Whatever we would get from Heroes from his reintroduction onwards, it was likely to be distinctively different, and ‘Cold Snap’ was certainly that....

Heroes Season 3 Episode 25 Review The Season Finale

Where has Heroes gone this year? To places it didn’t want to go, in ways it didn’t want to travel and with all the inherent style of a Chaplin pratfall. It didn’t take long for me to get annoyed by this story, because in the opening minutes we’re given a quick recap as to where everyone was at the end of the previous story. Except they’d left out a bit where Claire and Angela got out of the car before it was stopped by Denko’s people – so they weren’t captured....

Hidden Figures Review

The story here focuses on the space race in the early 1960s, specifically the moment where it looked as if Russia had firmly seized the initiative. As NASA was struggling to get an American into space, Russia was having far more success, and the pressure was duly on. That pressure in part fell on the shoulders of Al Harrison (played here by Kevin Costner), director of the Space Task Group, charged with coming up with and solving the calculations needed to send John Glenn safely into space....

How Russia And China Ignited The New Space Race To The Moon

Just like in the ‘50s, the U.S. is entering this new race to the moon a few steps behind. With Russia and China planning manned missions to the moon, there’s been talk of the U.S. changing its focus from the planned mission to Mars, back to the moon. According to one of the last men to get there, the United States once again walking on the surface of the moon may not be far off....

It S Always Sunny In Philadelphia Season 8 Episode 5 The Gang Gets Analyzed Review

We start off the episode with Dee finally talking to a shrink. She’s all worked up about having to clean the dishes from a dinner party and she brought in the boys to have her therapist settle the dispute. The episode was indicative of the Gang’s approach to life: pure chaos. It seemed like there was no rhyme or reason to anything we learned. It wasn’t an episode like “Who Pooped the Bed?...

Krypton Explores Superman History In Intriguing Ways

David Goyer is no stranger to Superman’s doomed home planet. As the writer of 2013’s Man of Steel, he gave audiences a more detailed look at Krypton than had ever before been shown onscreen. So much effort went into designing Kryptonian culture and history for that film, Goyer wanted to explore it further. He’ll get the chance with Syfy’s Krypton television series, which Goyer is writing and executive producing. Still, don’t be fooled by the fact that you know the planet’s tragic fate....

Legends Of Tomorrow Season 3 Episode 6 Review Helen Hunt

Legends of Tomorrow Season 3 Episode 6 Legends of Tomorrowis at its strongest when the cast and crew are having as much fun making the show as I am watching. The cast all have good acting chops, and the stories are often great, but the show peaks when the cast is on the edge of breaking down because someone else is being hilarious, or when their interactions are so natural it feels like they’re not even trying to act....

Lff The Duke Of Burgundy Review

Strickland’s debut saw him head to Transylvania to shoot Katalin Varga, a foreign-language revenge picture, with just £28,000 inherited from his uncle. With movies like those behind him, you can bet that what is ostensibly a drama about a commanding writer and butterfly collector, Cynthia (Sidse Babett Knudsen) and her kinky relationship with her maid, Evelyn (Chiara D’Anna) would have more going on than it first appears. Strickland’s previous fascination with the distinctive style of 60s and 70s Italian filmmaking continues here, with The Duke Of Burgundy’s fluid camerawork and rural setting calling to mind the moviemaking tics of Mario Bava and Dario Argento....

Losing Stephen King Manuscripts Means Losing Important Pieces Of Our Literary History

Letters written by J.R.R. Tolkien, signed copies of George R. R. Martin and J.K. Rowling first editions, and his most important collection of all: a ton of Stephen King manuscripts, signed editions, letters, and memorabilia – such as old fan newsletters, posters, periodicals and rags with some of the writer’s earliest published stories, and even a rare King action figure based on his appearance on The Simpsons. If you’re as big of a King fan as I am – or a Constant Reader, as Uncle Stevie likes to call us – Winters’ shop is your heaven....

Lost Season 4 Episode 2 Review

Perhaps the best thing about Lost’s flashback structure is the ways they find to twist the format. In this episode, rather than a parallel plot set in the past, we get a clutch of single-scene flashbacks, each introducing one of the newbies. There’s nervous physicist Daniel Faraday (Jeremy Davies) who finds himself mysteriously moved to tears when the remains of Oceanic Flight 815 are reported found. There’s a pissed-off psychic by the name of Miles Straume (Ken Leung) who almost inexplicably has the genuine ability to contact the dead....

Luther Episode 4 Review

Having presented us with a ‘killer of the week’ formula so far, the fourth instalment of BBC One’s Luther introduces us to this episode’s rouge, a middle-aged serial killer with a fetish for sniffing women’s handbags. I’m being serious. As the episode begins we see him bent over his latest victim in the park, laying the contents of her handbag all around her whilst stealing her necklace, a keepsake of his crime, as if you needed any more convincing that it is one sick puppy we are dealing with here....

Me And Earl And The Dying Girl Review

The opening scenes of Me And Earl And The Dying Girl, charming though they are, so immediately recall the likes of Wes Anderson, Michel Gondry, Noah Baumbach and Richard Ayoade that it almost feels like a pastiche of your average gently comic indie film. Traces of Rushmore, Igby Goes Down, Son Of Rambow, Adventureland, Submarine and numerous other coming-of-age sagas can all be found in director Alfonso Gomez-Rejon’s gently comic drama....

Merlin Series 3 Episode 1 Review The Tears Of Uther Pendragon Part 1

It’s been a year since Morgana was whisked away by warrior-sorceress Morgause (the sublime Emilia Fox), and Uther has used the lives of many of his soldiers and most of his resources searching for his ward. When Arthur, Merlin and Camelot’s finest are ambushed in the woods by a band of men, most of which are despatched by Merlin’s sorcery, they finally find a dishevelled and disorientated Morgana. Uther is overjoyed by her return and holds a feast in her honour, unaware of her true motives....
