Avengers: Endgame – Review (spoiler free)

Although personally not my favourite from the MCU, Avengers: Infinity War was, up until this point, the biggest thing Marvel Studio’s has ever brought to the big screen, certainly in terms of its grand scale. It felt like more than just another comic book film, it was a spectacle. Ten years of rich, intertwined storytelling, […]

The Sound of Silence… The Silence – Review

“……………………………….” – Everyone Lets back it up to 2016. A year that Mike Flanagan brought us Hush. A movie that at its core seemed like your generic slasher, home invasion set up, but had the balls to try something a little different. By making the lead protagonist deaf, it added a higher element of dread, […]

Triple Frontier – Review

Triple Frontier definitely comes out as one of the better Netflix movie originals and although that may sound like a big achievement, it’s merely a testament to the company’s rocky reception. J. C. Chandor’s gritty, macho American, heist drama tells the story of five ex military men, who failing to make ends meet, take on […]

With Avengers: Endgame nearing its hotly anticipated release, Marvel Studios provides us with its final origin story before what is set to be the MCU’s magnum opus. Captain Marvel is a character that was hinted after the metaphorical and literal dust settled following the big blow of Infinity War’s finale. To the cheers and applause […]

Bullock Blindsides With Bird Box

What Netflix seems to get right in the way of tv series, lacks consistency with the way they handle their feature films.

Coen’s Beautiful Ballad

When it comes to story telling very few directors have managed to do it better than the Coen Brothers. This Netflix original showcases their talent perfectly. The Ballad of Buster Scruggs tells five unrelated stories all set around the time of the old west. Each tale providing a unique experience. A blend of comical with […]
