Scorpion Risky Business Review

Now we’re talking! Here’s an episode about an algorithm that’s able to generate hit songs, an idea that’s so ridiculous, it’s even explored to pretty hilarious length in the brilliant British comedy series, Look Around You. I’ve always been saying that the more absurd and out there that Scorpion is, the better it works, and plots like this are a step in the right direction. I’m a little surprised to see the show incorporating Drew, Ralph’s father and Paige’s ex, from last episode into the show so quickly, but it’s appreciated all the same....

Sicario Review

Emily Blunt, still combat ready from her role in last year’s Edge Of Tomorrow, stars as Kate, an FBI agent who heads up a kidnap response team in America’s south. During a rescue attempt in a Phoenix suburb, Kate’s team stumble on the murderous activity of a cartel led by one Manuel Diaz – a drug boss the US government are keen to apprehend. As Matt and Alejandro lead Kate further into cartel-controlled territory, the darker events become, and Kate realises too late that she’s far, far out of her depth....

Silicon Valley Season 4 Episode 8 The 5 Best Jokes In The Keenan Vortex

But also: jokes. No wonder T.J. Miller is leaving at the end of this season. Erlich Bachman is having an incredibly rough time. At first in “The Keenan Vortex” everything seems to be coming up Erlich. Keenan works into his contract with Lori and Monica that he’ll only work with them if Erlich is there. Then Keenan uses that muscle to get a bigger deal from Raviga AND bring Pied Piper into the fold....

Spartacus Vengeance Episode 4 Review Empty Hands

This review contains spoilers. It’s taken a while, but despite the still-yawning absence of John Hannah, episode 4 of Spartacus: Vengeance has finally fleshed out its cast of supporting villains into leads in their own right. Perhaps it could have come sooner, but never mind, at least it’s working now. In particular, this episode saw the likes of Glaber, Varinius, Albinius, Seppia and Seppius gain some character direction, defining them for the first time in terms other than their relationship to one another....

Spartacus War Of The Damned Episode 9 Review The Dead And The Dying

3.9 The Dead and the Dying Naevia’s, for one. Although the initial idea of Crassus letting her go to “goad” Spartacus was a little weak, it didn’t really matter in light of what she did in this episode. The character has been all over the place since her introduction, but in many ways, the journey from slave to a free individual with her own agency is the real arc of Spartacus....

Star Wars The Clone Wars The Unknown Review

Tup’s and Fives’ friendship is re-established early on and remains a central part of “The Unknown.” Fives’ “He was my best friend” is a bit cheesy, but it comes out like a confession. There’s a lot of dramatic irony in watching most of the cast try to unlock what’s wrong with Tup. The suspense comes not from the question of whether the Jedi will discover what the executive order is, but from the more personal story about Tup and Fives....

Star Wars The Clone Wars Episode 14 Review

WARNING: This review contains Spoilers that may ruin your enjoyment of this episode. Nope it’s not Shatner, but in fact, George “Joe Swash BFF” Takei, but more of him later. The story picks up directly from Episode 13 where the Jedi have encountered a more peaceful species than they claim to be, the Lurmen. These little guys refuse to help the titular Defenders of the Peace, but things take a turn when a Separatist ship lands with an army of clankers, sorry I mean “Battle Droids” and a powerful new weapon (what, another one?...

Star Wars The Clone Wars Season 2 Episode 2 Review

However, towards the end of season one, when the writing and darker stories began to kick in and the stories began interlinking, it seemed the show found its pixelated feet, with a good combination of intrigue, action and characters. And while Anakin is still really still quite unlikable, and there is the slight irritation of having to occasionally endure various Hutts and teen Padawan, overall the first season worked out pretty well....

Star Wars Rebels Season 4 Episode 15 Review Family Reunion And Farewell

Star Wars Rebels Season 4 Episode 15 Like The Last Jedi, the Rebels series finale remixes many elements from Return of the Jedi, giving us a noble Jedi decision, low-tech defeating high-tech, and a family-friendly, high-stakes war story. That it does these things with mixed results is not surprising, since the double-length finale has a lot of questions to answer. What is Ezra’s fate? Where was he during the Original Trilogy?...

Stargate Universe Episode 14 Review

Human We start with Dr Rush waking up at home, next to his wife, in bed. Now, we don’t know too much about Dr Rush’s story thus far, but we know that he feels terrible when he thinks of his wife, so obviously something tragic happened to her. We seem to be in for a rather depressing episode, but not exactly what you think you’re getting when you walk in....

Stargate Universe Episode 7 Review

If anyone were in doubt that Stargate Universe is a show worth watching, this week’s effort may change your mind. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I fear it won’t work. We are only seven episodes in, remember, and that would surely be the death sentence for a show this early on. However, it gives a good balance between the two sides of the show that will regularly come head to head....

Superbob Review

It’s therefore quite fitting that SuperBob is about Britain’s first superhero, because it’s functionally Britain’s first superhero film, at least since Marvel Studios got going. While Marvel diversifies its films by setting them in different genres and is about to start turning out three movies a year with that model, even they haven’t thought to make a low-budget romantic comedy yet. In short, the Ministry of Defence snapped him up and now wraps each and every heroic deed in an inordinate amount of red tape....

Supergirl Season 2 Episode 19 Review Alex

Supergirl Season 2, Episode 19 Supergirl sure knows how to stick a landing. What started out as a pretty trite TV drama set-up — a bad guy kidnaps the person who is most important to our hero and demands they break an evil guy out of jail — developed some layers in its second half. This was in no small part to the #Sanvers relationship, which can pretty much always be counted on to add some fresh depth to any episode of Supergirl Maggie and Alex decide to grace with their presence....

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Fungus Humungous Review

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is frequently funny, but occasionally goes for gross and scary; this episode does both well through visualizing the turtles, April, and Casey’s fears. Although everything is a hallucination, the show jumps in to the characters’ points of view to let the audience see the same grossly animated monsters they’re faced with. The deepest fears released through the mushroom poison can be split into two categories of external and internal fears....

Terror Island Book Review

Terror Island is reminiscent of nothing more than Jurassic Park. The initial tour of the island, seen through the eyes of Anna Martin, whose father is one of the scientists living in situ, and her friend and would-be filmmaker Mike, generates that same sense of unease. The scientists proudly display their high-tech enclosures, and talk at length about all the discoveries and progress they’ve made in their virology labs, while Anna and Mike try not to run away screaming....

The 100 Season 2 Episode 13 Review Resurrection

2.13 Resurrection Which is good because, if all of the characters were taking time out of the action to deal with the emotional ramifications of their questionable actions, then there wouldn’t be much of a show to watch. Clarke will likely be grappling with what she did (or, more accurately, didn’t do) for the rest of her life, in addition to how Finn’s story ended, but the characters in this universe have about as much time for long discussions about morality as I suspect the audience do....

The 100 Season 2 Episode 3 Review Reapercussions

2.3 Reapercussions As of the end of episode three, this includes Clarke and Anya leaving Monty and Jasper (and 40+ faceless kids) behind at Mount Weather, Bellamy, Murphy and Finn on a rescue mission, Octavia with the Grounders, Lincoln with the Reapers, Abby and Kane at Camp Jaha and, as far as we know, the real Jaha stuck in some nondescript desert. That’s a lot of stuff for a show to pack into one 40-minute episode, but the groundwork The 100 did last season really helps it out now....

The 100 Season 3 Episode 1 Review Wanheda Part 1

3.1 Wanheda – Part One The only problem with last year’s run was that it was always going to be hard to top it on violence, creativity and general scale, so season three looked to either derail the whole thing, or scale things back significantly. Judging by this premiere episode, they’ve gone with the first option. Now, I have no problem at all with a show as inventive and fun as The 100 just going for it with everything until it burns out completely, and right now the novelty of being able to spend time with these characters again is making the concern of where the rest of the season might go a smaller one than it might become....

The Affair Episode 4 Review

There’s an interesting recurring thematic device through this episode where timing is a crucial element in life. That fate is a big player in our lives, and that mere seconds have the power of altering lifetimes. It’s a neat idea for the show to bring up, considering how Noah and Alison’s first meeting was so predicated on chance, and their inevitable blow-up will likely stem from the same agent. It’s also curious, bur surely superfluous, that the “Previously On” segment makes a point of singling out the “He kills her....
