Apex Review: How to peak at B-movies
APEX (2026) Just when I think Netflix has literally lost the plot when it comes to its original film offerings (see our reviews of the too clever to understand, ultra dumbed-down The Rip (2026) and over complicated and intellectually disabled The Old Guard 2 (2025)), I get dragged back in by it’s latest movie Apex,…

Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen Review: Marriage is death
SOMETHING VERY BAD IS GOING TO HAPPEN (2026) When you know, you know. Am I right? Of course not. No one knows anything for certain, especially when it comes to marriage. Marriage is a leap a faith. Or is it? Rachel (Camila Morrone) is quite sure she’s found her soul mate as she and her…

Being Eddie review: What the hell Eddie?
BEING EDDIE (2025) First off, let the record show that I love(d) Eddie Murphy. He was the best part of the second coming of Saturday Night Live and lucky for us he transitioned into the biggest movie star in the world with 48 Hours (1982), Trading Places (1983), Beverly Hills Cop (1984), The Golden Child…
