"All this he saw, for one moment breathless and intense, vivid on the morning sky; and still, as he looked, he lived; and still, as he lived, he wondered."
I haven't seen the others Agatha Christie's adaptations made by the same production, but I hear that they were good. The same cannot unfortunately be said of this miniseries starring John Malkovich as Hercule Poirot. And before you start ranting, let me make something clear:...
Bad day, today, aside from a very satisfactory lesson held for a client. So I'll write about comics and tv: that usually helps. Just a little preface, before I tell you whether I liked this second season of Runaways or not: we really don't know what the...
I don’t feel very much like going to the theatre lately but I finally managed to catch up on the Fantastic Beasts second chapter, the Crimes of Grindelwald. I thought the first movie was enjoyable enough, although the narrative was lacking and if you took away...
As we step bravely into a new year, let’s try and see what’s good and what’s promising to keep us company on tv. Since summer, some things have changed in what I watch: I crawled through the latest seasons of: Daredevil (boy, that was a good...

Yesterday I started watching Zoolander on Prime Tv, because people keep quoting that at me and I never saw it. About 5 minutes into the movie, the President of the United States appears on screen. I turned off the movie. End of the review....
I adored season 1 of this show and that was hard to beat. The whole concept of hosts trying to break free from their loop had a Greek tragedy flavour to it, with a sprink of Nietzsche when they kill their creator. Usage of time,...
After the whole Defenders storyline went down as it did (in boredom), I was both glad and skeptical to see the announcement of another Marvel-inspired tv series. Cloak and Dagger is one of the probably few comics I didn't read back in the days (2008...
