The first season is astounding, riveting, memorable, funny and utterly fantastic. The third almost lives up to that praise. The second has its moments. Overall, its an extremely solid take on the Man Without Fear and must-watch television for superhero fans.
Tim Minchin: So F**king Rock
An enjoyable but not particularly memorable live show from a brilliant performer.
There's nothing specifically wrong here, it's just that nothing ever works and the whole concept is tremendously dull. Also, apparently, completely forgettable.
The MCU's grimdark, broody antihero gets a definitive take thanks to Netflix and the excellent Joe Bernthal. Season one comes highly recommended.
An incredibly well-balanced film with a phenomenal cast. Worth delving into to really understand the nuance.
The Crimes of Grindelwald
Too preoccupied with building a story out of the ashes of the fairly self-contained initial movie, resulting in an (albeit pretty) muddled mess.
The World of King: A Natural History of Skull Island
The gold standard for creature design tie-in books, with heaps of fantastic ideas and some solid speculative evolution work.
Fantastic Beasts: The Art of the Film
A beautiful collection of concept art and creature design, though lacking in substance beyond the pretty pictures.
Whilst sitting the shadow of the first film, this still manages plenty of fun moments, and a much more interesting overall plot to boot.
Sublimely well balanced, a perfect culmination of all the varying plot threads across the MCU and a cross-over event that rivals the source material itself. Practically perfect!
A dark, depressing and morbid classic with an unexpected amount of heart, nuance, and finesse. Wonderfully crafted and utterly riveting, even whilst it kicks your hopes and dreams to shreds.
A dark and depressing look at addiction, abuse and guilt wrapped up in a surprisingly entertaining superhero show. The first season is astounding; the second struggles finding the light outside of its immense shadow.
