‘The Gentlemen’ Netflix Series Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

While I liked Guy Ritchie’s 2019 film The Gentlemen, I didn’t love it the way Fred did in his review. I found it hard to care about the characters and it often put style over substance. But the reception to the film was strong enough that Netflix greenlit a spinoff TV series of the same name, with Guy Ritchie returning as creator and part-time writer/director. … Continue reading ‘The Gentlemen’ Netflix Series Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

What Made ‘Gladiator’ A Big Deal? – ScreenHub Entertainment

Ridley Scott’s Gladiator premiered in 2000 and changed cinema, for better or worse. But why did it have such a massive impact on audiences and Hollywood studios in subsequent years? As we inch towards the release of Gladiator II later this year, we thought now was a good time to look back on the original film and its lasting legacy. It’s always daunting writing editorials … Continue reading What Made ‘Gladiator’ A Big Deal? – ScreenHub Entertainment

For All Its Faults, ‘Troy’ Is A Fun Movie, Despite Being A Terrible Adaptation of ‘The Illiad’ – ScreenHub Entertainment

As it stands, the 2004 epic Troy currently sits at a 54% average on Rotten Tomatoes and a 56 on Metacritic. It was made in the wake of the insanely popular film Gladiator, but failed to capture the lightning in a bottle the same way Ridley Scott’s epic did. It doesn’t help that Brad Pitt actually was pretty vocal about his time on Troy as … Continue reading For All Its Faults, ‘Troy’ Is A Fun Movie, Despite Being A Terrible Adaptation of ‘The Illiad’ – ScreenHub Entertainment

Spreading Democracy: Helldivers 2 Early Impressions Review (On PS5) – ScreenHub Entertainment

I don’t normally jump on bandwagons and almost as a rule of thumb, I avoid online multiplayer games. But I found myself drawn by both the buzz and premise of Helldivers 2, the latest “it” game courtesy of Arrowhead Game Studios. In a year where such live-service games as Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League and Skull and Bones have failed to make an impression … Continue reading Spreading Democracy: Helldivers 2 Early Impressions Review (On PS5) – ScreenHub Entertainment

‘Dune: Part Two’ Spoiler-Free Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

There was a good dozen times while watching Dune: Part Two that I thought to myself, “How does this movie even exist?” That’s not a slight, but the highest of compliments. Director Denis Villeneuve has somehow outdone himself on this one, delivering a movie that feels massive in scope, yet intimate and personal in its story. It feels like a big step forward from both … Continue reading ‘Dune: Part Two’ Spoiler-Free Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

‘Godzilla: Minus One’ Is Fantastic – ScreenHub Entertainment

You’ve probably heard that Godzilla: Minus One is a fantastic movie already so my saying so isn’t adding anything new to the conversation, but I figured throwing out a quick review into the void that is the internet couldn’t hurt. Even though this is a monster film where a giant, radioactive lizard breaks cities, this is a surprisingly human and emotional story that achieves everything … Continue reading ‘Godzilla: Minus One’ Is Fantastic – ScreenHub Entertainment

‘1408’ is a Forgotten Horror Gem – ScreenHub Entertainment

I have always had an odd fascination with horror stories where the villain is not an imposing slasher or a monstrous beast, but rather a place. The idea of a malevolent intelligence simply existing in a space is a fairly rare theme in film. Some notable examples are Poltergeist and Event Horizon, and one more that seems to have been forgotten over the years. The … Continue reading ‘1408’ is a Forgotten Horror Gem – ScreenHub Entertainment

The ‘Mad Max’ Game Is An Underappreciated Gem – ScreenHub Entertainment

Currently sitting at 69% on Metacritic, 2015’s Mad Max game wasn’t exactly a critical darling. The action-adventure open-world RPG developed by Avalanche and published by Warner was released over a year after Fury Road hit the big screen, yet didn’t generate the same level of buzz and prestige as George Miller’s magnum opus did. Now, with Furiosa: A Mad Max Story just a few months … Continue reading The ‘Mad Max’ Game Is An Underappreciated Gem – ScreenHub Entertainment

Bradley Cooper caps off 2023 with his sophomore directional feature, this time with Maestro, a biography on the life of composer Leonard Bernstein. Can Cooper strike gold twice after his immensely popular and acclaimed remake of A Star Is Born? Let’s find out. Cooper directs, produces, co-writes and stars as Bernstein, a Jewish American prodigy in the field of classical music. Maestro chronicles decades of … Continue reading ‘Maestro’ Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

‘Rebel Moon: A Child of Fire’ Spoiler-Free Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

I feel when talking about Zack Snyder, it’s best to lay the cards on the table from the get-go. I’m indifferent to his work overall, some of his films I quite enjoy, such as 300 and his cut of Justice League, others I’m left wanting on, such as Man of Steel and Army of the Dead, nevermind Sucker Punch. So I went into Rebel Moon … Continue reading ‘Rebel Moon: A Child of Fire’ Spoiler-Free Review – ScreenHub Entertainment
