Note: there’ll be no major spoilers in this article but I will talk about some of the inciting incidents seen in the first two episodes, so minor spoilers ahead. We’re living in the dawn of a golden age of video game adaptations it seems! Over the past few years, we’ve seen Sonic The Hedgehog and Super Mario Bros. dominate at the box office while on … Continue reading ‘Fallout’ Is An Absolute Blast – ScreenHub Entertainment
Up until now, my retrospective on the historical epics, of the late 90s and early 2000s, including the likes of Gladiator and Troy, felt very dramatic and practical; tangible recreations of history with lavish sets, costumes and tons of extras. Controversial director Zack Snyder came around with his 2006 adaptation of Frank Miller’s seminal graphic novel 300. Instead of megasets and tons of extras, a … Continue reading ‘300’ Changed A Whole Genre; For Better or For Worse – ScreenHub Entertainment
During my rundown of the most anticipated movies of 2024, British filmmaker Alex Garland’s newest movie about a renegade America going into war with itself was my top pick. It’s hard to remember a movie warning us of a real and actual potential danger in a political landscape where democracy is taken for granted in key places around the globe (we can only think of … Continue reading ‘Civil War’ Movie Review – Screenhub Entertainment
We recommended the first season of Tokyo Vice earlier this year, the Max Original (formerly HBO Max, what a stupid name change) series starring Ansel Egort as an American investigative journalist working the criminal underworld in the titular city circa 1999. After a longer-than-expected wait, season two finally aired and we’re happy to report that it’s awesome. Let’s dive in. The season premiere of season … Continue reading ‘Tokyo Vice’ Season Two Review (Spoiler-Free) – ScreenHub Entertainment
Gladiator is often credited with being the film that kickstarted the Hollywood obsession with the epic in the 2000s, but we shouldn’t discount Braveheart as the film that reinvigorated a dying genre. Directed by and starring controversial actor Mel Gibson, the film would go on to win four Oscars, including Best Picture and Best Director at the 1996 Academy Awards. It’s laughably inaccurate, but despite … Continue reading Historical Accuracy Be Damned, ‘Braveheart’ Still Owns – ScreenHub Entertainment
I was a big fan of Ghostbusters: Afterlife, so I was pretty excited to go and check out its sequel. But I was then surprised to see that Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire was getting some pretty lukewarm reviews. But I figured, why not go and check it out regardless. While not quite the surprise Afterlife was, Frozen Empire is a pretty fun movie, albeit one that’s … Continue reading Is ‘Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire’ Any Good? 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
In this episode, we get into the current affairs of 2024 as the gents present a rundown of their most anticipated movies of the year. Also, Fred discusses the show Masters of the Air on Apple TV + and Sean about his new favourite movie: Godzilla Minus One. Apple Continue reading Film & Spirits EPISODE 51 – Most Anticipated Movies of 2024!
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
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
