SAS Rogue Heroes 2022 Tv Series Review Trailer Cast Crew

Image
Steven Knight recently admitted that his new series, the somewhat awkwardly titled SAS Rogue Heroes, shares "sort of a theme" with his most famous work, Peaky Blinders. In truth, it's not just a theme that SAS shares with Peaky: it's a tone, a sensibility, and a style. This series may take place thousands of miles away from Tommy Shelby's Birmingham hometown, but in many ways the two series are two sides of the same coin. This is by no means a criticism - Peaky Blinders went from a relatively minor BBC Two gem to a worldwide sensation for a reason and therefore any comparison between the two shows is to the strength of SAS. It's safe to say that fans of Knight's previous work will not be disappointed. Stars: Connor Swindells, Jack O'Connell, Alfie Allen SAS Rogue Heroes takes place in 1941 and traces the incredible true story of the creation of the Special Air Service, a parachute regiment born from the unlikely combination of a disinformation campaign...

Hellhole 2022 Movie Review Trailer Cast Crew

Image
The kind of drama suggested by such a bombastic title is scrupulously avoided in Hellhole, from Belgian director Bas Devos. Even the reference to then-candidate Donald Trump's use of the word to describe the city of Brussels, through which the film prowls, has been replaced by so much Trumpian bluster, as non-Belgians may have a hard time establishing the Connection. And the connection itself is vaguely confusing, for while Devos' love for his city throbs beneath the Teflon camerawork, the sadness of his portrayal of a sleepwalking citizenry still reeling from the 2016 Brussels terror attacks it undermines any possible irony. This may not be a vision of hell, but it sure feels like purgatory. Wannes (Will Thomas) is a doctor who seems shadowed by death even in his off hours, spending afternoons with his sister watching over a dying relative or Skyped with his son, a fighter pilot on a tour of the Orient. .

The Bastard Son & The Devil Himself 2022 Tv Series Review Trailer Cast Crew

Image
Stunning and clever special effects abound in this young adult fantasy witch-based drama, adapted from the Sally Green novels by Giri/Haji writer Joe Barton. What a title! In the interval between hearing about The Bastard Son and the Devil Himself and seeing it, that sentence rolls around the brain like a rock.

Marlowe 2022 Movie Review Trailer Cast Crew

Image
Neil Jordan fails to find form in this confused and Iberian attempt to revive the legacy of Raymond Chandler. Forty-four years have passed since the last time a feature film was built around Raymond Chander's tougher-than-tough fictional detective Philip Marlowe, an absence from the screen that seems unduly long and now, after Neil's "Marlowe" Jordan, not so much. enough. A flimsy, fake attempt at vintage noir, the film is not an adaptation of a Chandler play, but of "The Black-Eyed Blonde," a 2014 Marlowe authorized entry by Irish novelist John Banville. However, minus Banville's knack for literary ventriloquism, this European co-production evidently can't help but feel removed by various degrees from the real thing, not helped by the gawky, gangly presence of a wildly miscast Liam Neeson in the shoes that a they once occupied by Bogart and Mitchum. Director: Neil Jordan Writers: William Monahan, John Banville, Raymond Chandler Stars: Liam Neeson, D...

God of War: Ragnarök 2022 Video Game Trailer

Image
“God of War Ragnarok” is a safe sequel, at least in its opening hours. While the 2018 reboot changed the series' formula, the 2022 game is all about taking that formula as far as possible, within the confines of remaining playable on PlayStation 4. That means that, again, for the first few hours, “Ragnarok” feels a lot like a PlayStation 4 game that has been ported to PlayStation 5. It clearly doesn't take full advantage of Sony's current high-end technology. A PlayStation embargo means I can't talk about the rest of the game, which got more interesting pretty quickly, but that's about all I can write; you'll have to wait until the review embargoes are lifted in a few weeks. In the meantime, you can expect "God of War Ragnarok" to feel like an immediate follow-up to 2018's critically acclaimed blockbuster, with little departure from what that game achieved in combat, level design, and pacing. It's like the next season of a nail-biting prestige ...
