Murder of God’s Banker is shocking to say the least. The documentary reveals a lot in a great pacing and some dramatization.
Ray Donovan goes through a great transformation with the second part of its seasons. The show finds its footing.
Meet Cute is a cute Peacock Original. However, it lacks any soul to get the viewer invested in its semi-charismatic characters.
Shrinking was an extremely pleasant surprise that I didn’t expect to enjoy. Ted Lasso meets Dollface wrapped in extra sarcasm.
John Wick: Chapter 4 is a thrilling and satisfying conclusion to the saga of the legendary assassin that started because of a puppy.
Boston Strangler was a pleasant surprise about how two journalists fought sexism to successfully investigate murders in Boston.
Unprisoned is awkward, and not in a clever way. I really wanted to like the show, but it felt like a huge and boring TED talk.
Ray Donovan grows on you. Like the titular character’s anger, the show gets better with each new season on Showtime.
Shazam! Fury of the Gods doesn’t rise to the occasion. A mix of clichés and meta jokes saves it from being too bland.
Rosaline is a fun and fresh take on Romeo and Juliet. Yes, the movie’s audience is not necessarily myself, but I seriously enjoyed it.
A pleasant surprise, Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile made me smile, a lot. It might be the perfect film to snuggle on the sofa.
Brando el Sharq is a decent Lebanese series on MBC’s Shahid. But the dramady falls into familiar tropes that make it difficult to watch.
