Double Date Review

Arriving in UK cinemas fresh off a crowd-pleasing premiere at FrightFest earlier this year, the film follows Jim (Morgan), a painfully shy young man who’s on the verge of becoming a 30 year old virgin. His best mate Alex (Michael Socha) seems even more exasperated about this than he does. And so, neither of them can believe their luck when stunning sisters Kitty (Kelly Wenham) and Lulu (Georgia Groome) agree to go on a double date with them....

Dragon Ball Super Episode 60 Review Into The Future Again Goku Black S True Identity Revealed

Dragon Ball Super Episode 60 “The world is more complicated than we think…” After last week’s badass deletion of Zamasu, AKA the show’s big threat, it seemed like Dragon Ball Super was possibly ready to move onto its next major enemy. Beerus was even certain that Future Trunks could stop brooding and return home to resume watching Tokyo Ghoul or Lupin the Third with Future Mai, or whatever they do to relax....

Eiff 2014 Is The Man Who Is Tall Happy Review

The film is simply this: Gondry, who we all hope will one day finish his adaptation of Philip K Dick’s Ubik, holds several interviews with Chomsky, films parts of them, and provides animation for the rest. The animations are akin to a stream of consciousness, colourful and dreamlike protuberances and stretching body parts accompanying the recorded conversation. It’s a bit like Terry Gilliam’s Monty Python animations but achieved using a box of felt tips, or the Hitchhikers’ Guide To The Galaxy as rendered by children....

Elementary Just A Regular Irregular Review

In non-math related queries, what about this: When are we going to get to a flashback episode of Kitty and Sherlock in London? It better be soon, because I am running out of creative excuses for why Kitty continues to be on show at all this season. This might read as cruel, especially in light of all the mother-hen-ing Joan has shown Sherlock’s newest pupil, but if anything, I’d argue that it’s the opposite....

Elementary Season 2 Episode 9 Review On The Line

2.9 On The Line It’s just as well. Without Miller’s performance keeping our attention, this week’s serial killer case would have been indistinguishable from any other procedural show. Kidnapped women kept by psychopaths in secret rooms are ten a penny on network TV (we’ve even had them on Elementary before), as are the precinct tensions that formed part of On The Line’s tepid drama. From that opening suicide to the grisly reveal of Bunch’s secret room though, it was a nasty case....

Emerald City Season 1 Episode 5 Review Everybody Lies

Jack and Lady Ev become something other than friends. Jack’s “Tin Man” storyline continues to be one of the more compelling elements of Emerald City, though it took a it of a tonal turn in “Everybody Lies,” shifting away from the body horror of last week’s episode and turning into an unexpected relationship drama. When Lady Ev and her king of a father travel to Emerald City to meet with the Wizard, Ev brings Jack along....

Endeavour Series 4 Episode 4 Review Harvest

4.4 Harvest Morse, still distracted by the subterfuge surrounding his meeting with Joan, doesn’t understand why Thursday’s insisting that they look more closely at the Laxman case; after all, County investigated at the time and found nothing. Thursday points out that “County couldn’t find their arse with two hands and a map”, which justifies further inquiries on their part. Morse sets out for the village of Bramford to question the residents, only to collide with a wall of cheery, eerie silence....

Extant A New World Review

Honestly, Sparks and Anya on the run just isn’t all that interesting, and the guards all falling to friendly fire surprises no one at this point. The massacre does allow Kern and Molly to escape custody, though, as their guards run to save themselves (smart choice). While on the run, the two of them debate the motivations of the Offspring, and I find myself wishing for the dear departed Kryger to be the voice of reason....

Falling Skies Door Number Three Review

The family reunion was nice, though. Maggie and Hal spotting each other across the marketplace was a nice touch for everyone’s favorite couple, and Ben’s sudden attraction to his brother’s girlfriend is both completely understandable and deliciously awkward. Tom and Anne show just the right amount of tenderness before the topic of Lexi comes up, and poor Matt must retreat to his more minor role as “youngest son” now that his story arc is presumably finished....

Fear Itself Season One The Sacrifice Review

When the second season of Masters of Horror rolled around, I didn’t even bother watching the episodes unless other people told me they were good. I don’t think I was the only one who gave up, since the series wasn’t picked up by Showtime. Then NBC came along. In an attempt to launch year-round programming, the network picked up the rights to a horror anthology series from Mick Garris and Lionsgate that isn’t Masters of Horror at all....

Flash Forward Episode 7 Review

Beware, this review does contain minor spoilers! I’d be the first to accept that there are shows where season one wasn’t very good, that later became classics. As I recall the first two seasons of Star Trek:The Next Generation were lumpy at times, before the amazing season 3’s Yesterday’s Enterprise and then the seminal The Best Of Both Worlds catapulted the show into another level. Yet, I’d argue that even in the awkward Encounter At Farpoint there were hints and gestures that Next Generation had something greater to give, even if it wasn’t realised for some considerable time....

Flight Of The Conchords Season 2 Episode 3 Review

‘Eminem is not very good, 50 cent is not very good, Snoop dog is not very good…’ In the band meeting following the performance, Murray criticises the boys for making too much noise and offers advice saying they can make noise but do it so that people can’t hear them. He also draws on his notes from the gig regarding the dissing – clearly not sure what this means, Jemaine tells him what dissing is and Murray’s alarmed as to why Bret would have anything to say against Snoopy....

Fringe Season 4 Episode 17 Review Everything In Its Right Place

This review contains spoilers. 4.17 Everything In Its Right Place Having rubbed me entirely the wrong way recently, Fringe bounced back with a main plot story that mixed all the right elements in almost perfect proportions. This Lincoln Lee-centric narrative was the pay-off for having to endure him grinding his teeth for numerous episodes through the blossoming happiness of Peter and Olivia. Sometimes the joy of others is more than some around them can stomach, or so it appears....

From Buffy To Star Trek How To Write An Oral History Of A Beloved Tv Show

No one understands this better than Ed Gross and Mark Altman, two TV journalists, fans, and creators who now have two TV oral history books under their belts: Slayers & Vampires and The Fifty-Year Mission. Den of Geek was lucky enough to talk to Gross and Altman last month at New York Comic Con. Here’s what they shared about the process. “I thought it was a fantastic format to tell these stories, particularly because, with Star Trek, there’s so much disagreement about certain things,” continued Altman....

Game Of Thrones Season 2 Episode 3 Review What Is Dead May Never Die

This review contains spoilers. The wonderful thing about Game of Thrones is that it is easily consumed. In hour-long chunks, it’s just enough episode to keep you interested; every individual episode contains something worth talking about, be it the awesome action sequences, the brilliant writing, or the incredible acting. To prepare for this season, I watched the entirety of the first season in two days. I got the DVD on Friday night and by Sunday I was caught up....

Game Of Thrones Season 5 Episode 1 Review The Wars To Come

5.1 The Wars To Come Westeros is very much a world in flux, and as we find out in this episode, everyone is trying to get adjusted to a new way of looking at things. Tyrion is on the wrong side of the Narrow Sea with his new friend/benefactor/shit-scooper Varys, and his eyes have been opened by a look at the conspiracy to save Westeros by putting a Targaryen back on the throne....

Game Of Thrones Season 5 Episode 4 Review Sons Of The Harpy

5.4 Sons Of The Harpy This is a show where fighting is perhaps the most important element of any character, and those who aren’t fighters, have to think like fighters while getting others to do their violence for them. See Tyrion Lannister, Littlefinger, and Cersei Lannister, all of whom appear in this episode making decisions of various quality. Cersei, as usual, does the bulk of the plotting. After meeting with the High Sparrow, she decides that Westeros needs its religious military back once again, thus the Sparrows find themselves rearmed after hundreds of years with no Faith Militant....

Geeks Vs Loneliness Being Diagnosed With Adhd

“Rory was always a little bit different.” I’d already been misdiagnosed as having ‘a bipolar disorder’ (his exact words) by a disinterested psychiatrist who’d barely listened to me for ten minutes before branding me with a non specific mental illness and offering some antidepressants which I completely refused. I’d had antidepressants before, they’d made me depressed. The suspicion that I had ADHD came after that diagnosis. After doing my own research and completely dismissing the psychiatrist’s analysis, I did some digging around on the internet and discovered my mental health problems more closely resembled ADHD....

Geeks Vs Loneliness Social Media Tells Lies

This week, we want a chat about social media, and in particular comparing yourself to others on social media as some way of measuring yourself. It’d be usual to give a polite, well structured argument as to why this is an unrealistic thing to do. But, if you’ll pardon our language just for a minute, we want to go a little further: it’s bollocks. But it actually is bollocks. The image that people willingly or unwillingly put across on social media is just that: an image....

Get Santa Review

More than that, however, the film revolves around ex-con Steve Anderson, (Rafe Spall) a getaway driver who’s been released from prison on parole, just in time for Christmas. Looking forward to spending December 24th with his son Tom, (Kit Connor) he’s dismayed when a stranded Santa (Jim Broadbent) hijacks their day together by insisting that only Steve and his son can save Christmas. One of the more outwardly remarkable things about Get Santa is that it comes from Christopher Smith, the writer and director of such lo-fi horror movies as Creep, Severance, Black Death and Triangle....
