Television Review: Ted Lasso S3E6 “Sunflowers”

“Where is she going?” “With someone that believes they deserve her.” *punches wall* And so we’ve reached the halfway point of the third (and likely final) season. After dropping a friendly match in Amsterdam, Ted decides the team needs a bit of a break. After boarding the bus back to the hotel, he announces to […]

Movie Review: RENFIELD Starring Nicholas Hoult, Nicolas Cage, Awkwafina

If you grew up in the ’90s, surely you saw at least one action film starring Nicolas Cage. After receiving an Oscar for best actor in Leaving Las Vegas, Cage became one of Hollywood’s leading men, starring in a string of hits such as The Rock, Con Air, Gone in 60 Seconds, and one of […]

Television Review: Ted Lasso S3E5 “Signs”

“If you put your energy into the things you truly love, the universe puts its thing back into you. You’re welcome.” Oh, Zava. You are so wise. Well, as any fan of a sports team can attest (currently writing this as the Cardinals have just lost six of their last seven games), every season has […]

Television Review: Ted Lasso S3E4 “Big Week”

“I’m a work in progmess.” Me too, Ted. Me too. Well, as evidenced by the title of the episode, “Big Week,” this is it. The big anticipated matchup between AFC Richmond and West Ham. Ted vs. Nate the Wonder Kid with first place on the line. And that’s the storyline that dominates much of the […]

Movie Review: TETRIS Starring Taron Egerton, Toby Jones, Sofya Lebedeva

Let’s face it: video game-to-film adaptations don’t have the best track record. For every Sonic or Detective Pikachu, there are a half-dozen adaptations that are best left unremembered. Super Mario Bros., Battleship, every Uwe Boll movie ever made…the list goes on. Some recent TV series have given us hope (The Last of Us was absolutely […]

TV Review: Ted Lasso S3E3 “4-5-1”

Note: this review will once again be based on the presumption that you’ve seen the previous episodes this season. If you haven’t, grab some biscuits and go watch them! “I am an empty vessel, filled with gold. I am your rock. Mold me.” And with those words of…well, they’re words…Zava makes his introduction to Ted […]

TV Review: Ted Lasso S3E2 “(I Don’t Want to go to) Chelsea”

Note: since I reviewed episode 1, I will be writing this as if the reader has already watched it. If you haven’t, go back and watch it! It’s game time! While the first episode was an excellent building block for the upcoming season, it didn’t have any football in it, leaving us in anticipation of […]

TV Review: Ted Lasso Season 3 Premiere, “Smells Like Mean Spirit”

Note: I will be reviewing every episode the week it is released. Ted Lasso is what people need. When the Apple TV+ series debuted in 2020, the world was undoubtedly in a bit of turmoil. COVID forced people around the globe into isolation, the US was heading towards one of the most polarizing presidential elections […]

Movie Review: COCAINE BEAR Starring Keri Russell, O’Shea Jackson Jr., Christian Convery

You ever see a majestic bear and think to yourself, “I wonder what would happen if we gave a bear a massive amount of cocaine?” Well, thanks to a gentleman named Andrew C Thornton II, you don’t have to wonder. This actually happened in 1985, and as it turns out, the bear died. The unfortunate […]

Movie Review: 80 FOR BRADY Starring Lily Tomlin, Jane Fonda, Rita Moreno, Sally Field

I am not a Tom Brady fan. Now don’t get me wrong, I respect the guy. He’s almost certainly the GOAT quarterback (apologies to you Montana enthusiasts; Joe may have won every Super Bowl he went to, but he only led his team to four), and his accomplishments are unmatched. But as a former St. […]
