Rewatch Review – Mission: Impossible III (2006)
I’m not sure what it is but Mission: Impossible III seems to be shot on lower quality film stock to the others. The opening scenes seem to be shot on a home video recorder. In fact, I’ve seen better quality films made with iPhones! I did read somewhere that it was Paramount’s first foray into…

Slow Horses: Season 2 – What You Need To Know
Slow Horses debuted in April 2022 and I thought it was fantastic! Masses of talent, gripping story, suspense, humour…for me, it had it all. I guessed there’d be a second series but I was surprised that it was going to be in the same calendar year! Obviously a lot of other people must have thought…

MCU Disney+ Review – Loki
I suppose that we should be looking at The Falcon And The Winter Soldier next but, given that one of the next big films due for release is Thor: Love And Thunder, then Loki seemed the obvious series to do next. Yes, I know that Dr Strange And The Multiverse Of Madness is due out…

Best of British Biographies – Benedict Cumberbatch
Prior to 2010 not many people had heard of Benedict Cumberbatch nor could they, probably, pick him out of a line up. That wasn’t due to lack of exposure; parts in seventeen TV shows, ten films, thirty radio programmes, and eighteen theatre plays gave him a decent amount of public attention but he was never…

Jack Reacher History – The Short And The Tall Of It
1997 saw the publication of The Killing Floor by Lee Child. It did quite well; it was nominated for five awards and won three. It started a series of twenty-six novels, so far, and around twenty novellas and short stories. To date, Lee Child has sold over a hundred million copies of his Jack…

Themes On A Christmas Carol – Blackadder’s Christmas Carol (1988)
I know that a lot of people outside of the UK only think of Mr Bean when they hear of Rowan Atkinson but, trust me, he is far funnier than that character. As has been alluded to many times, I am getting on a bit and can remember him in Not The Nine O’Clock News…

MCU Disney+ Review – WandaVision
And here we go with the MCU’s dive into television. Incidentally, should it still be the MCU? Or should it now be the MCTVU? I guess that’s one of those questions which doesn’t require looking at too closely. Anyway, WandaVision is the first TV series from Marvel Studios and, also, the introduction to Phase Four,…
