    by Cas Harlow
    The Gentlemen (Netflix) TV Show Review
    Somewhat insanely, Guy Ritchie's created/written/directed TV spin-off to his 2019 movie of the same name is great fun, chock full of colourful characters, bursting with witty dialogue, and utterly bingeworthy.

    by Mark Costello
    Spaceman (Netflix) Movie Review
    Left to languish on Netflix’s shelves for three years after its completion, Adam Sandler and Carey Mulligan’s trip to just a couple of clicks on past Solaris is an admirable failure that may find a second life as a cure for arachnophobia…

    The Killer (Netflix) Movie Review

    by Tom Davies
    The Killer (Netflix) Movie Review
    The Killer gives David Fincher an opportunity to round up all the skills he’s honed as a director. But no matter how well-drawn the characters, or how taught the component pieces, disappointingly, it’s all in service of some very tired hitman revenge plot beats.

    Absolutely one of the finest Netflix productions ever put together, created by the co-writer of Blade Runner 2049 and Logan, Blue Eye Samurai is visually stunning, brutally bloody, kinetically action-packed and fabulously unravelled over an epic 8 episodes and 6 hours.

    Based on Anthony Doerr's Pulitzer Prize winning novel, directed by Stranger Things' Shawn Levy and scripted by Peaky Blinders' Steven Knight, Netflix's lavish WWII adaptation paints a piteous portrait of war and greed, but is it worth 4 hours of your life?

    by Cas Harlow
    Fair Play (Netflix) Movie Review
    Continuing a hell of a strong streak of movies on Netflix, Fair Play is another tremendous effort - and another impressive directorial debut - somewhat surprisingly delivering palpably intense thrills from what is, essentially, a sexually-fuelled exploration of cutthroat hedge management and gender politics.

    Who Is Erin Carter? (Netflix) Limited TV Series Review
    It's the kind of title that risks generating a 'Who cares?!' response if not handled right, but Netflix's latest potentially generic offering has enough unfolding mystery and thrill hijinks to make for a decent 7-episode binge.

    The Witcher Season 3 (Netflix) TV Show Review
    Eking out Henry Cavill's final run as The Witcher, Netflix finally drops its second half of Season 3, which contains the best episode of Witcher so far - and also concludes so painfully open-ended that you may be tempted to not bother watching it at all.

    Jackie Chan's Hidden Strike (Netflix) Movie Review
    Yes, it's another Chinese production with too much fake VFX and convoluted plot padding, but the last half hour is some of the most fun classic-ish Chan in years, with some insane Fast & Furious vehicular mayhem thrown in for good measure.
