This felt like two very different halves of an episode. The past and the present, in this case, do not mix very well. Part of the whole excitement about The Book of Boba Fett and The Mandalorian is seeing new places and new faces in Star Wars. However, with this episode, we got lots of the old. It
I'll start off with the obvious: HOLY CRAP DANNY TREJO IS IN STAR WARS. Now that we have that out of the way, what we got with this episode of The Book of Boba Fett was a fantastic setup for the rest of the series. It's the Pike Syndicate vs. Boba Fett. In the original trilogy, prequel, and
For those complaining about how Boba Fett got his ass kicked last week, I'm not sure if they have a leg to stand on this week. This was a thrill ride from start to finish. The Hutts are back and we learned more about how Boba got to his place with Fennec. Plus any time there's a train involved with
Imagine when you're young and you first see Boba Fett. Hopefully, it was in Empire Strikes Back and not the Holiday Special. The Book of Boba Fett's first episode felt very much like what you'd think of the character after learning his fate after Return of the Jedi. His motivations aren't quite as
Here comes Yelena on Hawkeye. This wasn't nearly as explosive as other penultimate episodes we've seen so far in Disney+ Marvel shows. However, we got some real character development for Clint, Kate, Yelena, and even Eleanor. The show's villain might be teased as Kingpin, but it's really the
In his new National Geographic series on Disney+, Will Smith teams up with fellow adventurers to explore our world of wonder. If you are a fan of adventure series you will want to check out Welcome to Earth starring Will Smith on Disney+. Join Smith on his
What started as a tense exchange at the end of Hawkeye episode three turned into an emotional gutpunch. After all that, we got a fairly decent set of action and then a reveal connecting this show to The Falcon and the Winter Soldier and Black Widow. For those who didn't see Black Widow, Florence
Take a trip back to middle school with Disney+'s Diary of a Wimpy Kid, a new installment of the popular books by Jeff Kinney. Yes, back in 2010 there was a live adaptation. However, this new version is an animated film in the style of the artwork of the books! But don't worry, the original
The Sheep Detectives is a towering testament of how powerful animated stories can be when done right. A genuine crowdpleaser, the film is sure to warm and break your heart, wrestling with richly textured explorations of death and grief, lost and found families, and the necessity of memory.
We've had haunted house movies. Sure, but have we had a haunted van movie? That's what Passenger amounts to at its most distilled form. This is a horror movie about a demonic force (the opposite of Saint Christopher) that has been chasing and killing travelers for hundreds of years. Basically, the
Though marital arts action cinema is vast and varied, it is rare for one to elevate the genre and push it forward. There have been few recently - The Raid comes to mind, and while not technically "martial arts" I'd argue John Wick counts - that feel as if something new and special is happening.
