This review contains plot details from the first three episodes of “All’s Fair,” which are now available on Hulu. Creators: Jon Robin Baitz, Joe Baken, Ryan Murphy Stars: Kim Kardashian, Naomi Watts, Niecy Nash The fact that a legal drama supposedly about female empowerment begins with a pilot episode written and directed by men probably tells you everything you need to know about “All’s Fair.” In fact, of the three episodes currently available on Hulu to commemorate the series premiere, only one features a significant creative credit from a woman, and it’s shared between executive producer Jamie Pachino and co-creator Ryan Murphy, who collaborated on the script for Episode 2. But this is a review, so I’m obligated to elaborate: “All’s Fair” is a clumsy, condescending take on superficial, triumphalist feminism, undercooked even by the standards of the overworked Murphy, who co-created the series with Joe Baken and Jon Robin Baitz. Admittedly, the tone is intentionally campy, and i...

In the Lost Lands director Paul W. S. Anderson reveals how George R. R. Martin reacted to an advance screening. Based on Martin's short story of the same name, the fantasy film follows a sorceress who travels to a realm known as the Lost Lands to gain the magical ability to turn into a werewolf in order to free her people. Milla Jovovich and Dave Bautista lead the cast of In the Lost Lands as Grey Alys and Boyce, respectively, and the first trailer has teased an action-packed ride for the two actors.
In a recent interview with SFX Magazine (via GamesRadar+), Anderson shares that he's now shown In the Lost Lands to Martin and the pressure was on. According to the director, Martin ended up having very kind things to say about the film, including admitting that it "captured her voice" better than any other adaptation of her work.
Director: Paul W.S. Anderson Writers: Constantin Werner, Paul W.S. Anderson, George R.R. Martin Stars: Milla Jovovich, Dave Bautista, Arly Jover
The author's response to the film was so promising that Anderson is now hopeful that Martin will write another installment in the Grey Alys saga, thus opening the door for more films.
The most notable adaptation of Martin's work is, of course, HBO's Game of Thrones, which ran for eight seasons from 2011 to 2019. The show's early seasons adhered fairly closely to Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire novel series, and were highly acclaimed, as well as major ratings hits. Over time, the series outgrew Martin's books and reviews became less complimentary, culminating in the controversial Game of Thrones season 8. House of the Dragon, a spin-off show, adapts the events of Martin's Fire & Blood, but given the nature of the source material, makes some pretty significant changes.
Given that Martin has proclaimed that In the Lost Lands most effectively captures his voice as a writer, even over the early seasons of Game of Thrones, fans of the auteur might be in for a treat. However, it should be noted that most of Anderson's films have not been well-received by critics. Anderson is best known for directing several installments of the Resident Evil film series, as well as films such as Monster Hunter (2020), Pompeii (2014), The Three Musketeers (2011), and Death Race (2008).
Martin has a unique voice and narrative sensibility as an auteur, and it's evidently not always easy to capture this on screen. From what's been revealed in the trailer, In the Lost Lands will also have Anderson's unique sensibility, especially when it comes to the action. However, if the film can effectively translate Martin's voice to the screen in a way that hasn't been done before, it certainly has the potential to be a standout adaptation, potentially ending Anderson's long streak of films earning mediocre to poor reviews.

Netflix went all out to unveil its highly anticipated miniseries “The Leopard,” based on Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa’s classic novel set in Sicily, marking the platform’s biggest splash in Italy yet. On Tuesday, Netflix held a packed press conference in the frescoed ballroom of Rome’s centrally located Plaza Hotel, which was also used to film one of the series’ key scenes. “The Leopard” will formally premiere in Rome on March 3 with a gala screening held at the Eternal City’s Opera House before its global release on March 5. Creator: Richard Warlow Stars: Francesco Colella, Astrid Meloni, Mario Patanè The lavish historical tapestry, with elements comparable to “Downton Abbey” or “The Crown” and the potential to leave a global mark, is a modern take on the sensual Sicilian saga adapted for film by Luchino Visconti, starring Claudia Cardinale, Alain Delon and Burt Lancaster. The film, now a classic of Italian cinema, won the 1963 Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival. Eleonora And...
Stephen Lang is one of religious history’s most iconic prophets during one of its most turbulent periods in House of David. Lang, best known for his work on the Don’t Breathe and Avatar franchises, has explored the historical genre in the past, from the well-received Civil War epic Gettysburg and its prequel Gods and Generals to the political thriller The Gandhi Murder.
