Netflix's romantic comedy starring Rebel Wilson is surprisingly original, entertaining and genuinely quite funny. Rebel Wilson stars as Natalie, an architect who lets all of her colleagues walk all over her. When Natalie was a child, her mother told her that romantic comedies are all lies and that things wouldn't...

Money Heist: The Phenomenon is a riveting analysis of how a flop series became one of Netflix's most popular shows. Money Heist started out as a 15-episode show that aired only in Spain. It didn't garner much attention and it was a bit of a spontaneous move on Netflix's...

This February, Beatrice Potter's beloved story of mischievous Peter Rabbit and his friends was brought back to life on our screens. Will Gluck, director of Easy A, took the story, which is over one hundred years old, and put it into a charmingly funny modern context. The animals are re-imagined as anthropomorphic...

The Perfect Date is a totally predictable and cliche romcom but hey, it is mildly entertaining. The new Netflix feature tells a story that is all too familiar. The protagonist comes from a poor neighborhood and lives alone with his father after his mum left the pair of them to...

But how do you review something when you know the version you watched will inevitably be different from the version that you, who is reading this, watched? For me,...

The latest Spider-Man spin-off had everyone wrongfully excited because the critics have come to the conclusion that it is "uninspired" and "dull." Digital Spy harshly said: "It takes a long time for things to really get going and for Venom to appear in the black, gooey flesh. At that point, what plodded...

Marianne is the latest Netflix horror to create a buzz. The eight-episode series is a chilling tale of witchcraft and psychological trauma. Hiding behind the sofa is almost guaranteed. The protagonist of the series is a troubled best-selling author called Emma. Her horror series tells the story of a witch...
