Bright and its sequel, Bright:Samurai Soul, are two of the best things on Netflix (after Arcane).

Unexpected depth from a gritty, action-packed series that should be a major hit. Looking forward to season 3.

The Mummy’s Evie. This strong, smart, flawed, seductress is the kind of heroine that’s desperately needed today.

The Ravages of Honor series, has far more in common with feudal Japan than it does with the ballrooms of Regency England.

John Carter of Mars. The one time that Disney took something and made it better. And then they squandered it.

Outlander season six delivers tension and intrigue despite its abrupt ending.

Shadow and Bone. Bardugo gets it right. Depth, characters, and well-written. I can see why it’s such a hit.

Story needs more than witticism and a neat idea. Why Lost City fails to deliver on its promise.

Three years later, Passengers is still a better sci-fi movie than anything else being hyped today.
