SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY Review
Tom Holland comes swinging back into movie theatres with Spider-Man: Brand New Day, the 4th instalment of his Spider-Man franchise from Sony Pictures and Disney’s Marvel. After almost 5 years without Peter Parker gracing our screens, the fans were ready to sit back and watch their favourite friendly crime-fighting superhero. As someone who has grown up with all the iterations of Spider-Man: Tobey Maguire, Andrew Garfield, and Shameik Moore, I've always had an attachment to H

THE BEAR SEASON 5 Review
The highly acclaimed FX series The Bear returned to fans' screens on Thursday night, heightening anticipation for its final season. In the series' tradition, all eight episodes were dropped for binge-watching. Straying from the series organic flow of travelling to new food scenes across Chicago and the globe, season 5 boldly chooses to take on its own rendition of a chamber piece. Rather than travelling outside of the restaurant, the majority of the season takes place either

TOM CLANCY'S JACK RYAN: GHOST WAR Review
Betrayal, espionage, and a whole lot of cigarette smoking, Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan: Ghost War picks up where the Prime Series left off. Our titular leading man, Jack Ryan (John Krasinski), is back, but rather than the abrasive CIA agent we know and love him to be, this time he is a civilian. At the end of season 4, Jack had testified before the Senate, exposing high levels of government corruption. Leaving him to be a regular man. That is, until Ghost War ropes Jack back into

OMAHA Review
One day you can be on the top of the world, and the next you have hit rock bottom. Omaha follows a father (John Magaro) and his two young kids on a road trip. However, we learn this is not any old road trip, but one with no end destination. Before leaving, Ella’s (Molly Belle Wright) father asks her, "If there were a fire, what would you stop to grab?" Loading the car up with what they can carry and their dog, Rex, the sheriff is there to bid them goodbye. It slowly becomes c

MILE END KICKS Review
Messy, lost and broke are three ways to sum up being in your twenties. It's a time of confusion as you graduate from being a kid into young adulthood, forcing you to snap out of this carefree nature. Everywhere you look, it seems everyone has it together, and you are falling apart. This is how we meet Grace (Barbie Ferreira), living with her parents, unemployed, but determined to prove everyone wrong. A music critic with over 400 articles written at Spin Magazine, Grace is l

THE CHRISTOPHERS Review
Departing from his most recent entries of a spy thriller and a ghost story, director Steven Soderbergh brings to life the world of two very different artists in his new film, The Christophers. From threatening to retire from directing to popping out three films in just over a year is impressive for any director, but doing three completely different genres proves why Soderbergh is one of today’s modern classic directors. A black comedy, The Christophers does a fantastic job of

FORBIDDEN FRUITS Review
Disguised as a sweet treat, Forbidden Fruits reveals itself to be sticky and messy, like fruit juice running down your arm. Jumping out of the gate with a balls-to-the-walls directorial debut, Meredith Alloway's influence from the teen drama films of the late 90s and early 2000s is willfully embraced to bring forth a new cult classic in 2026. Confidently walking the halls of an overly busy shopping mall, the Fruits, Apple (Reinhart), Fig (Shipp) and Cherry (Pedretti) sancti
