    Review: Dune: Prophecy Episode 5 – In Blood, Truth

    It only took 4 episodes of build-up but Dune: Prophecy has finally hit its stride, at least in this episode. “In Blood, Truth” is the first genuinely fun, entertaining and engaging episode of the series, and while the flashback episode “Sisterhood Above All” has been its best so far, it wasn’t without the dull trappings…

    Review: Sonic the Hedgehog 3

    Going to the cinema involves certain prerequisites, such as popcorn. Soft Drinks. Chocolate. And having fun and enjoying a film. That is exactly what Sonic the Hedgehog 3 delivers. A damn good time at the cinema. In a year where good films are hard to come by (yes Hollywood, it’s been a poor year, just…

  • Review: Dragon Ball Daima Episode 12 – True Strength

    Vegeta fans rejoice. The Prince of All Saiyans has finally been given his due. This has easily been the best episode of the series so far. I’ll admit I was particularly worried early on in Daima as it seemed to almost exclusively focus on Goku and the effect his incredible strength had upon the residents…

  • Review: Dragon Ball Daima Episode 11 – Legends

    As a hardcore Dragon Ball fan, I must admit that I’m shocked Daima has managed to uphold the level of quality it has managed throughout its run thus far. From character development, worldbuilding, storytelling and visual appeal, it’s easily not just the best Dragon Ball material we’ve gotten in a while, but probably the best…

  • Review: Dragon Ball Daima Episode 10 – Ocean

    So now that Dragon Ball Daima has reached what is rumoured to be its halfway point, episode 10, “Ocean”, is a perfect instalment in that it has a perfect blend of worldbuilding, humour, action and begins to tie everything together for the final stretch of episodes to come. Since its first episode Dragon Ball Daima…

  • Review: The Day of the Jackal – Episode 10

    Here we are, the finale of what is now the first season of The Day of the Jackal. I won’t lie, it was a struggle at times to finish this series. It was an incredibly frustrating show to watch at times, as anything good or great it achieved would quickly be overshadowed by poor writing,…

  • Review: The Day of the Jackal – Episode 9

    The penultimate episode of The Day of the Jackal sees our titular character achieve his ultimate mission: the assassination of Ulle Dag Charles, at the behest of the New York group, and retire with his £100 million payday. While the result was never in question, though was dragged out entirely to the detriment of the…

    Review: Dune: Prophecy Episode 4 – Twice Born

    After an improved showing in episode 3, “Twice Born” falls back into the monotony that plagued the first two instalments and reminded me once again of everything this show aspires to be, and everything it fails at being. At its core, Dune: Prophecy is a political drama about noble houses vying for power and control…

    Review: Dune: Prophecy Episode 3 – Sisterhood Above All

    So far I’ve been pretty vocal about my disappointment around Dune: Prophecy and every facet of the show i.e the acting, the casting, the production values and the writing. But I must admit, episode 3 was a step up from the previous two, and this is in no small part due to stepping away from…

  • Review: Dragon Ball Daima Episode 9 – Thieves

    The further we get into Dragon Ball Daima’s run the more it reminds me of the original Dragon Ball. It’s simply just a lot of fun to watch. It’s never boring and is a visual treat as the animation is consistently pushing the level of its quality with each passing episode. This episode in particular,…
