CASTRebecca BreedsLucca De OliveiraMichael CudlitzKal PennDevyn A. Tyler The Accent is the first thing that I noticed. Not to judge if it was good or not, but I didn't remember if Jodie Foster's Clarice had one. To say that I went in "blind" is an understatement, all I knew about the show is that it … Continue reading Clarice (Pilot review) | The Right Look and Tone But It Still Needs Work

Ron HowardCASTTom HanksAudrey TautouJean RenoIan MckellenPaul BettanyBased on Dan Brown's novel "The Da Vinci Code" Review: I know I saw this movie but I'm not sure what I thought of it at the time. I don't have a bad or good memory of it so I thought it'd be funny to watch again and see who I might recognize now that some time has passed. Being older and now … Continue reading The Da Vinci Code (2006) | An Average Joe and Conspiracy Theorist’s Delight
American Gods (S3 Premiere Review) | Until Destiny Kicks In
CastRicky WhittleEmily BrowningIan McShaneYetide BadakiBruce Langley I meant to do a refresher course of the last two seasons but didn't, so my memory of what happened is not that great and the recap didn't help that much because I saw some things in it that I don't remember. For instance, I remembered that Mad Sweeney … Continue reading American Gods (S3 Premiere Review) | Until Destiny Kicks In
Lupin (Part 1 Review) | Arsène Lupin Meets the Count of Monte Cristo
Lupin wasn't in my radar until that first trailer came out. I thought it was interesting that they cast Omar Sy (X-men Days of Future Past) in the role of Arsène Lupin but I didn't think I would make it past the first episode. When doing so I found out that Louis Leterrier (Incredible hulk) … Continue reading Lupin (Part 1 Review) | Arsène Lupin Meets the Count of Monte Cristo

The Flight Attendant (S1 Review) | It’ll Captivate Most Who’ll Give It A Chance (TV Review)
This show only came onto my radar when the first trailer was dropped, it has Kaley Cuoco (Harley Quinn) as the lead and Michiel Huisman (GoT, Wild) in an interesting role. The show was developed by Steve Yockey, not a name that I'm familiar with, he's worked on Supernatural, Scream, and Awkward which to me … Continue reading The Flight Attendant (S1 Review) | It’ll Captivate Most Who’ll Give It A Chance (TV Review)

Lovecraft Country (S1 Review) | An Educational Fantasy Journey
I'm a scaredy-cat, I know that about myself and I'm O.K. with it. It's the reason why I was so reluctant to see Lovecraft Country even though I wanted to watch and review the pilot when it aired. I didn't. This series nagged at me and I caved. I watched the pilot in broad daylight … Continue reading Lovecraft Country (S1 Review) | An Educational Fantasy Journey
Enola Holmes (Movie Review) | A Great Synergy of Writing, Acting, Directing and Everything in Between
It was only when the movie was annouced that I became aware of Enola Holmes. Although a newer character in the Sherlock Holmes mythology, I wasn't phased by it because I've been pleasantly surprised by many versions of Sherlock, Watson, and Mycroft. Directed by Harry Bradbeer (Fleabag, Dickensian) and adapted by Jack Thorne (His Dark … Continue reading Enola Holmes (Movie Review) | A Great Synergy of Writing, Acting, Directing and Everything in Between
