The devil gets behind Cotton. Here is our review of Salem season 2 episode 11. Bravo.Salem, on the exorcism. This was one scary exorcism, complete with popups straight out of Whats The Matter With Helen. Mary Sibley (Janet Montgomery) has never been scarier. A little dribble of blood on the side of her mouth is such a subtle tingle. She looks more like a sad clown as she endures the rotten fruit as inevitable....
This review contains spoilers. Susanna Clarkes source novel was a canny choice for the task. Tinkerbelle, its fair to say, he aint. And then it stopped, providing the first question of episode one: why? If only all TV drama could achieve that simple formula and make it look so effortless. This sinister, complex alternate history couldnt be more welcome, and just may prophesy exactly that rebirth.
Mrs. S nurtures Saras nature. Sadly, not all the figures from Mrs. Ss past survived the history lesson. So let that sink in for a minute. Saras grandma is the genetic donor to the Castor clones. As reveals go, thats pretty seismic. Yeah, I so believed that it had to be Shay. She was just too nice, too sweet, and too perfect for the rebounding Cosima to be true. When Cosima discovered that Shay has a military background (what?...
The series premiere of Syfys Dark Matter lacks punch but still manages to hint at great things to come. Delicious, but a bit flat. It makes sense, though, right? The characters dont know who they are, so neither does the audience; no one is fleshed out. Actually, though, these two female members of the crew are the true standouts in this premiere episode. Unfortunately, I cant include Zoie Palmer in the list of strong women not yet anyway....
Charles Manson invites Agent Hodiak to a trip. Here is our review of Aquarius season 1, episode 4. Hes hoping to clear his rat and get his ex-partner a stiffer collar. Duchovny and Kelly make an easy time of it this week. They finally internalized the friendship and let it come out through their mouths and body language. The grieving widow is trying to do her best not-yet-faded Mae West, without the innuendo or lackadaisical voice....
Most people dont have to bear their surrogate daughters murder even once. Will has had to endure it twice, and the result is heartbreaking for us viewers. Because Abigails demise isnt depicted in the typical manner. He lost her in Hannibals house in the season two finale, or perhaps even sooner. Like everything else on this show, it is gloriously ambiguous. Sadly, we do not get to see Hannibal and Will reunited in this episode....
After all, what actor on a promotional trail is going to call their latest job anything but ground-breaking? I know weve had AI films, but theyve been quite specific in their scope. The scope ofHumansis a world set up where this technology is universally accepted. I havent seen anything thats dealt with it in that multi-layered, every-layer-of-society way. There she has a real point. A singleBlack Mirrorepisode cant really be it....
His Special Forces work in the Second World War remains shrouded in mystery. We do know that, in 1944, he climbed Vesuvius three days before it erupted. A fine, operatic singer, he famously released a heavy metal album in his later 80s. Ian Fleming was a cousin, Muhammed Ali a friend and once dedicated a victory to Lee. Fluent in five languages, passable in another four, people like Lee dont really exist anymore....
Wayward Pines turns in its best episode to date. Its worse than you’re able to ever imagine. And, truthfully, the build-up was worth it for the payoff, but well get to that. Walking into the woods late at night has never been less safe. Expect some Ben-saving in the near future. A little too good to be true, almost. Despite the relative slowness of the Ben-Amy storyline, Ben gets answers much quicker than Ethan or Theresa....
They may be furry, they may be cute. But make no mistake: cats simply can’t appreciate the power of Rambo: First Blood Part II… Then I turned to my cat, Mr. Cobretti, and was stunned to discover that hed fallen asleep. While Rambos gunning down wave after wave of communists, your cats probably licking its rear end. Cats sense that they are irrelevant to this fantasy, and it doesnt even bother them....
Orange is the New Black returns to Netflix as fresh and fun as ever. Here’s our non-spoiler review… This is a spoiler-free zone. TV shows have always been like restaurants: only a select few make it past their first year. This may sound absurd for a show that seems so young. Buzzwords like content and franchises rule the airwaves now. Its got a couple of things going in its favor....
This summersTerminator Genisyshas received what might be considered its first and most important stamp of approval from James Cameron. Thats praise indeed from a filmmaker whos rarely diplomatic when expressing his opinion. Hated it,Cameron said.Simple as that. I hated what they did. And Im so glad it did. Jonathon [Mostow, director] has made a great movie. Arnolds in great form. I really like what hes done with it. From what Ive seen from afar, it looks like they will be quite good....
Its the kind of news that will make people roll their eyes. Ah yes, theyll say after seeing the headlines. Not even the musics original any more. The source of dispute is the lack of payment to those who performed on the original recording. So how and why is this happening in the first place? The automatic presumption is laziness, but it is more complex that that. A lot of this reuse takes the form of pop culture references, franchise continuity or intentional intertextual references....
