The Magnificent Seven (2016) Review

October 3, 2016October 2, 2016 Ben

There is something “old-school” about The Magnificent Seven. Not the fact it is a Western, although that does seem novel at a time when Westerns are quite rare in Hollywood, especially close to the blockbuster season. Magnificent Seven is old-school … Continue reading The Magnificent Seven (2016) Review

The importance of “Previously on…”

September 18, 2016September 17, 2016 Ben

TV has entered a new era of streaming and binge-watching. This has many positives, improving the writing of shows, developing story-lines which unfold over many episodes and also increasing the “must-watch” TV that prompts people to consume a whole season in … Continue reading The importance of “Previously on…”

Daredevil (Season 2) TV Review

September 12, 2016September 10, 2016 Ben

I review a whole season rather than individual episodes, so there is a chance of spoilers. If you haven’t watched the whole season yet, stop reading now! After the season long origin story which comprised the first season, Daredevil was going to … Continue reading Daredevil (Season 2) TV Review

Jessica Jones (Season 1) TV Review

May 13, 2016May 12, 2016 Ben

I review a whole season rather than individual episodes, so there is a chance of spoilers. If you haven’t watched the whole season yet, stop reading now!

April 9, 2016April 9, 2016 Ben

Recently, Oscar winning movie Birdman was heralded, amongst other things, for director Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu’s ability to make the whole movie seem like one long scene. If you watch closely you can just about spot the “joins” but Inarritu manages to … Continue reading Why do directors use “one-shot” scenes?

Marvel’s Agent Carter (Season 1) TV Review

December 20, 2015 Ben

I review a whole season rather than individual episodes, so there is a chance of spoilers. If you haven’t watched the whole season yet, stop reading now! Agent Carter shows a lot of promise from the outset. It is a female led series, … Continue reading Marvel’s Agent Carter (Season 1) TV Review

Could you survive with Netflix alone?

November 5, 2015 Ben

Within the next ten years, all TV will be streamed. You have that option now. You could very easily forego all “live” screenings of TV shows and only watch shows “on-demand.” I pretty much do this anyway, only really watching shows … Continue reading Could you survive with Netflix alone?

How Marvel should introduce Spiderman to their shared universe

July 26, 2015 Ben

So we finally have our newest Spiderman in the form of Tom Holland. I don’t know much about the actor really and am reserving judgement on his casting, mainly because Marvel do such a great job usually.

Has Netflix killed the “Procedural drama?”

June 23, 2015 Ben

Dramas are better when they aren’t procedural. It is a fact that is being proved more and more with every new and successful drama – or more importantly with the ones that are failing and cancelled. To be clear a “procedural” … Continue reading Has Netflix killed the “Procedural drama?”
