Pro Bono is getting a little better episode by episode. You can wonder if that’ll end up being enough – and, given the general predictability of the structure and the lack of a real stand-out original “wow” factor, it probably won’t be – but it’ll do in the meantime.

All credit to Robin Hood. It might have taken its time to get where it’s going, but Episode 9, “I Choose You”, feels like it has arrived at that destination.

I spent most of my time with Elway, Netflix’s definitive profile of Hall of Fame NFL quarterback John Elway, waiting for bad news. As an...

Watching I Love LA is like watching a car crash in which all the victims just happen to be provocatively dressed in designer brands. That...

Well, that's how you do a penultimate episode, isn't it? Mayor of Kingstown has always been at its best at the tail end of a season, and that seems to be holding true for Season 4, since "Teeth and Tissue" is riveting stuff.

I’ve realised what it is about Landman that I find so fascinating and peculiar. Originally, I mistook it for the show not really having a plot, but in Season 2, especially, that isn’t quite accurate.

Just like with Boston Blue, the midseason finale of Sheriff Country is one of its stronger episodes – and right on the back of an uncharacteristically weak one.

It took all season for Boston Blue to get good, only for it to reach its dramatic high point just in time for the midseason finale.

The Great Flood starts out as a very compelling disaster movie, but it almost becomes a disaster of a movie on the back of its...

A lot has been made of Ashur's suitability as the protagonist of a Spartacus spin-off, but as of Episode 4 of Spartacus: House of Ashur, I'm starting to see the logic.

The more you think about Pluribus, the better it gets. This isn’t true of very many shows these days, since a lot of shows – even the enjoyable ones – are conceptually fraudulent rubbish.

If you were expecting the 10 Dance competition to feature in the ending of the movie 10 Dance, well… more fool you. Do I really...

I will concede that I’m not in the target audience for 10 Dance, a Netflix film from Keishi Otomo, adapting the BL (boys’ love) manga...

Netflix’s Murder in Monaco is, in terms of its overall construction, a totally unremarkable documentary. But it’s telling a pretty remarkable story, which in the...

Back in the Wasteland, heading to New Vegas, and it feels like there’s a lot on the line for Fallout Season 2.

For the first time in Palm Royale Season 2, the pacing begins to flag in Episode 6. Don’t get me wrong, “Maxine Finds Herself” – a double entendre title that’ll become clear – has its fair share of upsides, including a lot of slapstick-y physical comedy and a great drunk performance from Kristen Wiig.

One of the pleasures of the Now You See Me movies is the final trick, an elaborate show-stopper set-piece that highlights how everything was all...

Magic requires a suspension of disbelief. You have to surrender yourself to the illusion. You know you’re being conned, but that’s the point, and if...

I’m pleased to report – albeit behind schedule – that Wake Up Dead Man, the third in Rian Johnson’s Knives Out mysteries, is probably the...

Wake Up Dead Man is the first Knives Out Mystery to realise that Daniel Craig’s eccentric detective Benoit Blanc is the least interesting thing about...
