★★★★ Prime Video is something of a mixed bag when it comes to many of their offerings. Look no further than Red, White & Royal Blue, or Shotgun Wedding to spot the wide disparity in titles for the streamer. The lack of consistency often gives me pause when trying to decide what movies are worthy … Continue reading Film Review: Sitting in Bars with Cake
TV Review: The Consultant
Tony Gasballop, creator of Apple TV’s sadistic Servant, prepares a fresh, disturbing course of suspense and dark comedy in Amazon Prime’s new series, The Consultant. An ensemble cast anchored by Academy Award-winning Austrian-German actor Christoph Waltz combine to make this a “workplace comedy” unlike any other. Similar to Servant, whatever direction one imagines The Consultant … Continue reading TV Review: The Consultant

Film Review: Shotgun Wedding
★ Romantic comedies are perhaps the most comforting, easy-watching genre of movies out there. I admittedly have a soft spot for many rom-coms, even the ones that aren’t necessarily great. Growing up with classics like Legally Blonde, Heartbreakers, John Tucker Must Die, and The Devil Wears Prada, there is a certain quality these films carry … Continue reading Film Review: Shotgun Wedding
TV Review: Hunters – Season 2
Far back in the bowels of 2020, the first season of Hunters emerged from virtually out of nowhere. Amazon Prime’s crowning action/thriller/drama, the series depicted a sort of “what if” scenario involving hunting down Nazis, and the rise of a so-called Fourth Reich. In August of that same year, the show was renewed for a … Continue reading TV Review: Hunters – Season 2
Film Review: Something From Tiffany’s
★★ Romantic comedy Something From Tiffany’s is just about as generic as they come. Feeling like it emerged fresh from the other side of the conveyor belt, I was left hunting for the scraps of salvageable delights from this unfortunately misguided and questionably-paced little Prime Video flick. How does one waste the talents of Zoey … Continue reading Film Review: Something From Tiffany’s
Film Review: Your Christmas or Mine?
★★★★ In terms of holiday hits, 2022 has left much to be desired. Sure, there is Disney Plus series The Santa Clauses, and of course, a horde of new Hallmark and television movies, but there has yet to be a true breakout Christmasey hit. Of the various flicks I have seen from major streamers such … Continue reading Film Review: Your Christmas or Mine?
Film Review: My Best Friend’s Exorcism
★★★★ Just when I thought I had seen every type of generic exorcism movie that existed, 80s-set horror comedy My Best Friend’s Exorcism proves me wrong, and then some. Starring a top-tier roster of rising young talent (including Elsie Fisher, Amiah Miller, Cathy And, and Rachel Ogechi Kanu), rarely does a film’s mixture of horror … Continue reading Film Review: My Best Friend’s Exorcism
