How ‘Stranger Things’ Has Changed – ScreenHub Entertainment

Though Stranger Things 3 continues to enjoy the warm critical reception of its predecessors, I couldn’t help but notice some stark changes from the show that captured my imagination back in 2016. While the original show was a superb blend of science fiction and horror, Stranger Things 3 has put a far greater emphasis on comedy at the expense of many of the scares. But … Continue reading How ‘Stranger Things’ Has Changed – ScreenHub Entertainment

A Christian’s Take On ‘Good Omens’ – ScreenHub Entertainment

Since its release, Good Omens has joined the ranks of many other films and tv shows that have dared to question some of faith’s most sacred ideas. I myself am a Christian, and my faith is something very near and dear to me. So what does this person of faith think of this outrageous, ludicrous piece of media that supposedly makes a mockery of some … Continue reading A Christian’s Take On ‘Good Omens’ – ScreenHub Entertainment

The Marcus Nelson Murders and When They See Us; Two Perspectives On A Broken System – ScreenHub Entertainment

Since its Netflix debut, When They See Us has received wide acclaim for its sobering and unflinching look at the ordeal of the Central Park 5, five youths who were coerced into confessing to the violent rape of a jogger and subsequently convicted of the crime. The series follows the five from the night of the crime to their eventual exoneration some fourteen years later. … Continue reading The Marcus Nelson Murders and When They See Us; Two Perspectives On A Broken System – ScreenHub Entertainment

‘Godzilla’ And the Art of Dumb Cinema – ScreenHub Entertainment

Let’s get one thing out of the way. Godzilla: King of the Monsters is a dumb movie. It is one of the dumbest big-budget blockbusters we’ve seen all year, with over the top chaos, a weak cardboard cast of human pawns, and more cliches than the supermarket greeting card aisle. But fear not, for these flaws conspire to make an all around entertaining action extravaganza. … Continue reading ‘Godzilla’ And the Art of Dumb Cinema – ScreenHub Entertainment

‘Detective Pikachu’ Is A Modern ‘Who Framed Roger Rabbit’ – ScreenHub Entertainment

Let’s get this out of the way right now. Detective Pikachu has no right to be as good as it is. After years of missteps attempting to make a video game based movie, a major Hollywood studio has finally succeeded, creating a movie that is entertaining, memorable, and an all around enjoyable experience for fans. For me, there was also a sense of familiarity in … Continue reading ‘Detective Pikachu’ Is A Modern ‘Who Framed Roger Rabbit’ – ScreenHub Entertainment

‘Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil And Vile’ Is A Film About Denial – ScreenHub Entertainment

Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile is not biopic on real life serial killer Ted Bundy. Rather than simply chronicle his crime spree in detail, the film takes a more unusual approach and shows it from the perspective of a long time girlfriend, Elizabeth Kloepfer. It does so to mixed results. The film is not without merit however, containing several moments of subtle brilliance before … Continue reading ‘Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil And Vile’ Is A Film About Denial – ScreenHub Entertainment

A Face-Lift Won’t Save ‘Sonic The Hedgehog’ – ScreenHub Entertainment

It’s perhaps only once in a decade that a film comes along so outrageously bad, it stops being a movie and becomes a punchline. All early indicators point to Sonic The Hedgehog as the next film to join the ranks of films like Battlefield Earth. Since the debut of its trailer last week, reactions have been so outrageously negative that Paramount, in an effort to save … Continue reading A Face-Lift Won’t Save ‘Sonic The Hedgehog’ – ScreenHub Entertainment

Love Is A Battlefield: Remembering ‘The Terminator’ – ScreenHub Entertainment

As a child of the 90s, few films resonated with the culture like Terminator 2 : Judgement Day. On every front from its reviews to its box office, it seemed to have dwarfed its predecessor as the Schwarzenegger movie to end them all. And though I still have boundless love for Cameron’s innovative sequel, as I grow older, more and more I find myself going … Continue reading Love Is A Battlefield: Remembering ‘The Terminator’ – ScreenHub Entertainment

Why ‘First Blood’ Stands Apart From Its Sequels – ScreenHub Entertainment

As a kid, it seemed I couldn’t pop in any movie without hearing a reference to Rambo. True Lies, UHF, Spaceballs, Hot Shots: Part Deux and others painted a picture of an unstoppable titan who did away with his enemies by the truck load. To me, this is one of the most infuriating misconceptions of popular culture, as the original First Blood is hardly what one would … Continue reading Why ‘First Blood’ Stands Apart From Its Sequels – ScreenHub Entertainment
