The Holiday Calendar Film Review The Review Geek

Cheesy And Formulaic With None Of The Christmas Charm There are two types of people this time of year – those who can’t wait for Christmas and those dreading the festive season. Netflix Original The Holiday Calendar unintentionally tries to dissuade those looking forward to Christmas with a bland, uninspiring story and formulaic characters. Despite a weak attempt to inject the film with some magic, The Holiday Calendar is a great film to get you out of the Christmas spirit and into a Scrooge-sized grump....

The Mystery Of Marilyn Monroe The Unheard Tapes Netflix Movie Review

Carrot on a Stick The Mystery of Marilyn Monroe: The Unheard Tapes is the documentary equivalent of a carrot on a stick. Clocking in at 100 minutes, this documentary promises to reveal “information that changes what we know” about the tragic death of Marilyn Monroe… but it doesn’t. Not really, anyway. Through 650 tape recoded interviews (don’t worry, we don’t hear all 650), Anthony Summers, a British investigative reporter, collates together his findings to paint a portrait of who Marilyn Monroe was and the issues she wrestled with....

The Passage Season 1 Episode 10 The Finale Recap Review

97 Years In The Making Given the season finale we receive here, I really hope The Passage is renewed for a second season. There’s been enough consistency to warrant it and the pacing across the 10 episodes has been consistent, boasting a story rife with drama and a decent amount of tension. The finale itself is no exception and despite several time jumps and a whole host of exposition, The Passage delivers one heck of a final episode, with a tantalizing look at what could be in the future....

The Post Film Review The Review Geek

A Culturally Relevant Political Thriller With recent developments around the globe involving fake news and a lack of government harmony, Steven Spielberg’s new politically charged thriller couldn’t have come out at a better time. Depicting a big cover up scandal involving Pentagon Papers that detail the fruitless endeavour of The Vietnam War, The Post feels like a culturally relevant film of our times. Of course, all these thematic and cultural undertones would be fruitless if the film itself failed to deliver and thankfully, The Post fires on all cylinders....

Remembrance Day With the Government offering out framed pictures for loved ones lost during the annual Purge, we begin this next episode 3 months after the Purge during Rememberance Day. Interestingly, the episode sheds more light on the psychological effects of the Purge, building a pressure cooker of tension between our four different storylines. It’s a great idea too and one that, although slower paced, sees more thought provoking questions raised around the effects this annual holiday has on the nation....
