—
Reset is a 15-episode series on YouTube about a young man and woman caught in a Groundhog Day-style temporal loop. The series is set in the picturesque city of Xiamen, China. The episodes all have English subtitles that are usually easy to keep up with. Occasionally, the dialog would come too fast to read, but that’s…

We all know that things have been all over the place, thanks to the devastation caused by Plague 2.0. There used to be an order to things; films came out in the cinema for a few weeks or months, depending on how popular it was assessed they would be. The phrase “released directly to video”…

Groundhog Day Themed Film Short – 12:01 PM
It’s always nice to be able to tick off a few categories in one go.

Movie Review – Boss Level (2021’s Groundhog Day Loop film)
As the queen of Groundhog Day (GHD) time loop movies, of course I viewed and reviewed Boss Level. It’s only viewable on Hulu. This is too bad, because in a normal (ie, not CoVid year) this would be a crowd-pleasing blockbuster on the big screen. Seriously, Boss Level is a fantastic actioner that’s more comedic…
