Extraction 2 still has generic and predictable storytelling similar to the first one, but it’s a worthy follow-up to the original film in almost every way, especially in terms of action, containing mind-blowing sequences that only elevate the genre further. I don’t want to sound like a hypocrite saying I really enjoyed this film when I didn’t have the same praise for John Wick: Chapter … Continue reading Extraction 2 review (2023)
Not every moment hits as well as the game, but HBO’s adaptation of the critically acclaimed The Last of Us is, for the majority of it, incredibly faithful to the source material, while also incorporating new elements and expanded storylines to make the viewing experience almost as enjoyable and memorable as playing the game. I remember when I played through The Last of Us in … Continue reading The Last of Us season 1 review (2023)
Stranger Things is the best its ever been in season 4. The stakes have never felt higher, the character development is phenomenal, for both old and new characters, along with how important and pivotal each of them feel to different parts of the story, the acting is fantastic, and it includes the best villain the series has ever had. From top to bottom, it’s hard … Continue reading Stranger Things 4 review
The series had its moments of wonder fans of Star Wars have come to expect from this universe, but I found myself being, at times, uninterested when the series focused on Boba Fett and his story. Maybe the legendary bounty hunter was a better character when he was mostly a mystery. I don’t hate the most recent Disney Star Wars trilogy compared to most people. … Continue reading The Book of Boba Fett season 1 review
Squid Game feels surprisingly fresh and original, despite being inspired by various themes. Although predictable at times, it’s an immensely tense watch, delivering moments of suspense, and ultimately elevated by incredible performances. I finally hopped on the train due to the massive amount of hype the Netflix original, Squid Game was receiving. For weeks, even months now, social media was going bananas about this series … Continue reading Squid Game season 1 review (2021)
Marvel’s Loki is not only a great character piece for one of the greatest Marvel Cinematic Universe villains ever, but it’s also a mind-blowing, stage-setting epic that promises something devastatingly drastic is about to happen to the superhero universe we’ve grown to love over the last 13 years. Marvel Studios has been on an absolute tear in 2021 with its MCU content so far. About … Continue reading Loki season 1 review (2021)
Invincible may very well be one of the best comic book adaptations I’ve ever seen and it’s only just beginning of its potential. The writing is phenomenal, the characters are developed properly, and the action scenes are insanely gory and entertaining to watch. So, I’m a bit late to the party. I wholeheartedly wanted to see Invincible back when it first released in April. Of … Continue reading Invincible season 1 review (2021)
I didn’t buy into every storyline and many questions were left unanswered due to its length. But, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier has great fight scenes, impressive special effects for a TV series, and memorable character moments that ultimately make the series worthwhile. Although the Marvel Cinematic Universe is mostly known for its big budget feature films (unless you count Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and … Continue reading The Falcon and the Winter Soldier series review (2021)
WandaVision is the most personal, creative, original, and unique piece of content the Marvel Cinematic Universe has ever produced. It starts off a bit weird, but sticking with it till the end is incredibly rewarding. Due to 2020, the lack of Marvel content for an entire year really took a toll on me and I believe I speak for most of the fanbase. I guess … Continue reading WandaVision series review (2021)
Kingdom is arguably the best piece of entertainment that happens to be about MMA, even though there are many other layers to it that are just as enjoyable and watchable. As a huge fan of MMA for many years, I’ve known about Kingdom for quite some time now. Unfortunately, I never got around to watching it partly because it was exclusively on DirecTV. However, with … Continue reading Kingdom series review (2014-2017)
