Netflix’s I Like To Watch hits the road with live shows across the UK

Coded Bias Review – Timely but Tiresome

Coded Bias represents both the best and the worst of streaming documentaries. On the one hand, Coded Bias has exceedingly important things to say about the way technology can be racist, sexist and classist, targeting the poorest communities and destroying lives. Conversely, it's an overstuffed and frustratingly long mess that spends only half of its 1 Hour 25 minute running time giving you new information. The rest is filler, the […]

Secret Magic Control Agency Review

It's exceedingly difficult to accurately review a movie like Netflix's new animated offering "Secret Magic Control Agency". On the one hand it doesn't have the lavish budget of a Pixar production, nor the years worth of complex, tried and tested experience of something like Studio Ghibli.

Run (2020) Don’t run from this incredible new thriller

Run (2020) Dir: Aneesh Chaganty, Running time: 1 Hour 30 Minutes, Availability: Netflix, Hulu (US) If you managed to catch director Aneesh Chaganty's powerhouse Searching in 2018, you'll know how much of a command he has over intense psychological thrillers. Intense is definitely the term I'd use for Run, a film that straddles the line between Stephen King and newer directors such as Fede Alvarez to create one of the […]

A Week Away Review – Netflix’s new Christian musical hits all the wrong notes

A Week Away is Netflix's first foray into the burgeoning world of Christian cinema. Whilst its an oft mocked genre due to plot contrivances and low production values, it's undeniable there's money in Christian movies and I can't blame Netflix for taking advantage of the growing demand. I can, however, blame them for creating this bland, unoriginal and simply dull musical. A Week Away follows Will, a foster kid who, […]
