If you were disappointed by The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, look no further than Exit 8, a video game adaptation that actively respects fans of the original source material. Writer/director Genki Kawamura develops a visual language that’s very much in line with the atmospheric experience of playing Kotake Create’s mind-bending walking simulator.

‘Thrash’ Can’t Capture the Thrills or Fun of Shark Movies

Joshua Mbonu ,  4 min read

At one point or another, most genre fans are always willing to get down with a good shark movie. The shark movie has virtually formed into a whole subgenre of its own, with many films playing within its confines of providing either sharp B-movie thrills or cheesy campiness that rolls with the absurdity. Thrash is the latest shark movie to attempt

‘Star Wars: Maul – Shadow Lord’ Premiere Review

Wiktor Reinfuss ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  6 min read

For years, Sam Witwer fought for a Maul solo project, and he worked really hard to achieve it. Even when animation expanded his story in The Clone Wars and Rebels, the character remained more myth than man. And now it’s finally time to explore what happened in between those projects. Thankfully, this isn’t just another side story project. It’s an attempt

Kristoffer Borgli Takes a Big Risk with ‘The Drama’

Maxance Vincent ,  5 min read

It is extremely difficult to talk about Kristoffer Borgli’s latest movie, The Drama, without mentioning the big twist that looms large regarding Charlie (Robert Pattinson) and Emma’s (Zendaya) union. What starts as a carefree, dynamic romantic comedy morphs into something else entirely… fifteen minutes after an opening montage that distills a picture-perfect marriage proposal between Charlie and Emma. The former is

‘Bait’ Is A Tremendously Unexpected Showcase For Riz Ahmed

James Preston Poole ,  ,  ,  3 min read

In February 2025, Amazon gained full creative control of the James Bond franchise. Although audiences are still eagerly awaiting what Dune filmmaker Denis Villeneuve will do with the property in the eagerly awaited next film involving the character, actor Riz Ahmed‘s new Prime Video series Bait takes a different angle. It’s a sort of meta-commentary on the cultural weight of the role of James Bond. Bait sees Ahmed playing a British Pakistani actor
