A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms: ‘Hard Salt Beef’ Spoiler Review

We return to Westeros this week for a brief but engaging half hour in a much tighter and more rewarding episode than last week. With Dunk and Egg now paired up, the show is quite energetic, with good humour and some solid characterization for our towering lead. The episode opens with Dunk recounting Ser Arlan’s many deeds and accomplishments to the nobility at the tourney. … Continue reading A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms: ‘Hard Salt Beef’ Spoiler Review

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms: ‘The Hedge Knight’ Spoiler Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

We returned once again to the land of Westeros on HBO, but this time, we leave behind the machinations of the throne, the threat of ice zombies, and a globe-trotting adventure spanning multiple protagonists. No, this time we’re in the dirt, grime, and actual poop of the peasantry in A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms. It’s a bit of a departure for the Song of … Continue reading A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms: ‘The Hedge Knight’ Spoiler Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

Worth the Hype? ‘Weapons’ Spoiler-Free Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

There was a lot of positive buzz earlier this year when Weapons made its way to cinemas. I sadly missed it, but the film recently dropped on HBO, just in time for Halloween. I’m a bit iffy when movies are very hyped up, especially in the horror genre, as I find they rarely live up to the hype. Did Weapons deliver or let me down? … Continue reading Worth the Hype? ‘Weapons’ Spoiler-Free Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

HBO’s ‘Task’ Spoiler-Free Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

Minor spoilers for the end of episode one. After garnering a lot of praise and a lot of goodwill at HBO for Mare of Easttown, Brad Ingelsby returns with Task, a new crime miniseries for the network starring Mark Ruffalo and Tom Pelphrey about a group of thieves and the task force hunting them down. Task is about the titular FBI task force assigned to … Continue reading HBO’s ‘Task’ Spoiler-Free Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

The Last of Us ‘Convergence’ and Season Two Spoiler Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

The Last of Us returns to the present-day narrative in its finale and makes a beeline for its confrontational conclusion. It’s a bit of an odd finale, in that it feels like part of a story, with random interludes and interjections from narrative beats that feel out of place. This is by design, as we see by the end, but it doesn’t make for the … Continue reading The Last of Us ‘Convergence’ and Season Two Spoiler Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

The Last of Us ‘The Price’ Spoiler Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

The sixth and penultimate episode of season two of The Last of Us gave us a whole episode dedicated to Joel and the influence he had on Ellie, both positive and negative. It was a powerhouse episode, with the best acting of the show to date by both of the leads. But it also continues season two’s trend of showing things out of order relative … Continue reading The Last of Us ‘The Price’ Spoiler Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

The Last of Us ‘Feel Her Love’ Spoiler Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

While better than last week’s episode, this week’s episode of The Last of Us continues to be uneven due to the writing and rearrangement of the narrative relative to the source material. The most glaring this week is just how quickly the second day in Seattle goes by. After a brief scene where Dina is triangulating WLF radio signals on a map in the theatre, … Continue reading The Last of Us ‘Feel Her Love’ Spoiler Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

The Last of Us ‘Day One’ Spoiler Review- ScreenHub Entertainment

The fourth episode of The Last of Us‘ sophomore season dove back into horror in more than a few ways, aiming to further the character development. I’d say that one of these themes worked out, but the other stumbled pretty hard, unfortunately. Where the show stumbled this week was the relationship between Ellie and Dina. The two have been very “will they, won’t they” all … Continue reading The Last of Us ‘Day One’ Spoiler Review- ScreenHub Entertainment

The Last of Us: ‘The Path’ Spoiler Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

HBO’s The Last of Us started its Joel-less narrative this week, cutting Pedro Pascal’s name from the opening credits of the show, as well as his silhouette prior to the title splash. We may feel anger and loss, but I found the show itself felt a bit indifferent to the loss of the lead character. Sure, we saw flowers at the Miller residence, but unlike … Continue reading The Last of Us: ‘The Path’ Spoiler Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

The Last of Us ‘Through The Valley’ SPOILER REVIEW – ScreenHub Entertainment

Note: there are massive spoilers in this review. Read on if you’re up to date, or don’t care. The second episode of The Last of Us’ second season was a tour de force of special effects and tragedy. It follows key events from the game, while also remixing and adding a lot to it, resulting in an emotionally draining hour of television (in a good … Continue reading The Last of Us ‘Through The Valley’ SPOILER REVIEW – ScreenHub Entertainment
