‘Alien Covenant’ Tries To Be Both Alien 5 and Prometheus 2 At The Same Time With Mixed Results – ScreenHub Entertainment

Fans and critics were a little miffed when Ridley Scott released Prometheus, as it felt very detached from the Alien franchise, so much so that it’s the only film in the franchise to not have “Alien” in the title. To help bring things back on track, the follow-up to that movie would not be Prometheus II, but instead Alien: Covenant, which would feel more in … Continue reading ‘Alien Covenant’ Tries To Be Both Alien 5 and Prometheus 2 At The Same Time With Mixed Results – ScreenHub Entertainment

“Alien: Romulus” Review (non-spoiler) – ScreenHub Entertainment

Although the movie slate for 2024 got us ‘partly’ excited, this is one of the few exceptions where we, sci-fi fanboys, were getting really hyped. The Alien franchise is back, with a brand-new filmmaker behind the helm of the ship! Directed by highly capable horror director Fede Álvarez, the mind behind Don’t Breathe (2016) and Evil Dead (2013), the iconic Xenomorphs are back and in … Continue reading “Alien: Romulus” Review (non-spoiler) – ScreenHub Entertainment

‘Prometheus’ Is Actually An Interesting Sci-Fi Film, But Not A Great ‘Alien’ Film – ScreenHub Entertainment

Alien: Romulus is about to release and I figured I’d try and slip in a few Alien-related films before going to check out Fede Álvarez’s entry. I had already watched Ridley Scott’s original Alien and James Cameron’s Aliens somewhat recently, so that left the option of going to Aliens 3 or venturing back to Prometheus, a film I haven’t seen since its theatrical release. And … Continue reading ‘Prometheus’ Is Actually An Interesting Sci-Fi Film, But Not A Great ‘Alien’ Film – ScreenHub Entertainment

House of the Dragon Episode Eight: ‘The Queen Who Ever Was’ & Overall Season Two Thoughts – ScreenHub Entertainment

Episode eight of House of the Dragon’s second season would have been a great penultimate episode, but it comes up as a surprise disappointment for the finale. With a reduced episode count, the season barreled toward a conclusion that largely felt like nothing more than set up for events to come, while simultaneously dragging its heels. Instead of wrapping this season up in a meaningful … Continue reading House of the Dragon Episode Eight: ‘The Queen Who Ever Was’ & Overall Season Two Thoughts – ScreenHub Entertainment

Finally: ‘The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare’ Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare hit the big screen earlier this year, but only in the US. I wrote about this in length, citing how frustrating and lame such a business decision was, especially when the marketing failed to highlight that the film would not be coming to the rest of the world on the release date. Now, a few months later, the rest of … Continue reading Finally: ‘The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare’ Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

House of the Dragon Episode 7 ‘The Red Sowing’ Spoiler Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

It’s a bit hard to believe that this week’s episode of House of the Dragon was, in fact, the penultimate for the season. Episode seven, titled The Red Sowing, built on the foundation of last week’s entry by focusing on the concept of the Dragonseeds. It was a more focused episode for sure, with some great payoffs, and some nagging issues that persist. I’m not … Continue reading House of the Dragon Episode 7 ‘The Red Sowing’ Spoiler Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

A Clever Satire, With a Deeper Message: ‘Coup!’ Spoiler-Free Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

What if the class structures of the early 1900s, which aren’t really that much different than they are today, were isolated and broken down bit by bit? The movie Coup! attempts to do just that, taking its eccentric cast of characters on an adventure through anarchy, madness, and self-discovery. Can it successfully blend this heavy message with its wit and charm? The Plot Coup! has … Continue reading A Clever Satire, With a Deeper Message: ‘Coup!’ Spoiler-Free Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ Spoiler-Free Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

It’s been since Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 that I’ve seen an MCU movie on the big screen, so it was amusing to hear that now-iconic fanfare play over the logo ushering Deadpool into the Disney-owned Marvel Cinematic Universe. If you were afraid that the House of Mouse would put a leash on the merc with the mouth, then think again. This movie is … Continue reading ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ Spoiler-Free Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

Thumbs Up or Thumbs Down? ‘Those About To Die’ Review -ScreenHub Entertainment

How often do you think about the Roman Empire? If you’re anything like me, the answer is probably more than you’d like to admit, which is why I naturally had to tune into Peacock’s latest big-budget swords-and-sandals epic Those About to Die. Based on the book of the same name, which served as the inspiration for Ridley Scott’s Gladiator, this a pretty melodramatic and inconsistent … Continue reading Thumbs Up or Thumbs Down? ‘Those About To Die’ Review -ScreenHub Entertainment

‘Twisters’ Shouldn’t Be This Good, But It Is- ScreenHub Entertainment

When I learned there was to be a sequel to the beloved 90s disaster film Twister, I was actually pretty jazzed about the news. Not because I’m a big fan of that movie, but because we hadn’t had a good ol’ disaster flick in a long while and this could scratch that itch if done right. So many in the 2010s were forgettable and bland … Continue reading ‘Twisters’ Shouldn’t Be This Good, But It Is- ScreenHub Entertainment
