Eyes of Wakanda review: a gorgeous crash course in Black Panther’s past

Eyes of Wakanda review: a gorgeous crash course in Black Panther’s past

Similar to What If…?, Eyes of Wakanda leans hard into the fantastical and remixes pieces of the larger MCU canon in a way that makes it come across like Marvel-approved fanfiction. But the new series features much stronger visuals, and each of its four episodes tell self-contained narratives that have far more nuanced ideas about justice and morality. And after …

TCL QM8K Review (65QM8K, 75QM8K, 85QM8K, 98QM8K)

TCL QM8K Review (65QM8K, 75QM8K, 85QM8K, 98QM8K)

The TCL QM8K is an incredibly bright TV. All HDR content stands out incredibly well, from the smallest specular highlights to large bright scenes; it just pops. It can’t sustain specular highlights for very long, but this really isn’t an issue with the vast majority of content, as specular highlights aren’t normally visible for more than a few seconds anyway. …

Leanne review – you can’t help but love the star of this terribly written, joke-free sitcom | Television

Leanne Morgan came to standup relatively late. Born and raised in rural Tennessee, she got married at 26 to her college sweetheart and raised three children while the couple built a jewellery business together.

Ninja Gaiden Ragebound review: A masterclass in 2D action platforming

The latest entry in that franchise, Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound, doesn’t strive to be that hard; instead, it focuses on offering a compelling set of combat tools, tight platforming and action, and a strong case for …

‘The Naked Gun’ Review – by Sonny Bunch

‘The Naked Gun’ Review – by Sonny Bunch

Paul Walter Hauser and Liam Neeson in The Naked Gun. (Courtesy Paramount Pictures, via MovieStillsDB) THIS IS A POTENTIALLY WEIRD ADMISSION, but I’ve always found something vaguely intimidating about the classic Zucker-Abrahams-Zucker comedies of years past, movies like Airplane! and Top Secret and The Naked Gun. Yes, they’re funny, but they’re almost too funny, as if they’re going to collapse …
