‘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

What Is ‘The High Republic’ Era In The New Star Wars Show, The Acolyte?

The Acolyte is the next Star Wars series to hit Disney+. Set some one hundred years before the events of The Phantom Menace, this will be the furthest back in the timeline fans will have ever gone in a live-action Star Wars project. So, what should fans know about The High Republic if they’ve never read one of the books? We got you covered! The … Continue reading What Is ‘The High Republic’ Era In The New Star Wars Show, The Acolyte?

‘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

The ‘Fallout’ Universe Explained For Non-Gamers – ScreenHub Entertainment

Fallout is the next big show coming from Prime Video, in collaboration with video game studio Bethesda, and will debut on the 12th of April. Much like The Last of Us or Arcane before it, Fallout is seeking to be a quality TV show and step away from the dreaded video game curse, which saw so many game adaptations miss the mark completely and become … Continue reading The ‘Fallout’ Universe Explained For Non-Gamers – 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

The ‘Kingdom of Heaven’ Director’s Cut Elevates The Original Movie – ScreenHub Entertainment

There’s been a lot of talk of director’s cuts lately. Ridley Scott has been touting a four-hour cut of Napolon coming this year and Zack Snyder is preparing R-rated director cuts for both parts of Rebel Moon. So that got me thinking of what must be one of the best director’s cuts ever assembled. Back when it was initially released in 2005, Kingdom of Heaven was a … Continue reading The ‘Kingdom of Heaven’ Director’s Cut Elevates The Original Movie – ScreenHub Entertainment
