John Grisham’s novel The Rainmaker has always been popular as an indictment of the legal system at every level, and it’s probably telling that it...

I’ve said this before, here and on various social media platforms, but it’s worth repeating — The Winning Try is much more than a sports drama. You...

I’m as surprised as you are, but Season 2 of Fatal Seduction is pretty good. It’s certainly a major improvement over the first season, even if that’s...

Killing off major characters is often seen as a pretty cheap way of farming audience engagement.

Dogs have always been a movie-making cheat code, the easiest shortcut to making an audience laugh or cry – or both! – as necessary. The...
