‘Road House (2024) Review: Dumb or Fun? – ScreenHub Entertainment

Let me preface this review by saying I’ve never actually seen the original Patrick Swayze film Road House, but I’m aware of both it and its devout cult following. But by not being a fan of the original, I was able to come into the 2024 remake, from director Doug Liman and starring Jake Gyllenhaal, with zero expectations. The original film has a reputation of … Continue reading ‘Road House (2024) Review: Dumb or Fun? – ScreenHub Entertainment

‘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

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
