Everyone who has seen Logan earlier this year knows it was a perfect swansong for Hugh Jackman in his most iconic role. It was a fantastic 17-year run that is unlikely to be repeated. Whilst it is debatable whether the role of Wolverine should be recast so soon, it will happen at some point: he is one […]
Season 2, Episode 6 shows The Last Kingdom at its best – an episode that has the right mix of political intrigue, drama, humor, and action. Uthred returns to Winchester to attend King Alfred’s daughter’s wedding after an illicit visit to Danelaw. This action brings the conflict between Uthred and Alfred to a head, with the king […]
The second season of The Last Kingdom has been solid so far, if unspectacular, and considerably action lite compared to its rivals (i.e. Game of Thrones and Vikings). However, the fourth episode blew the rest of season two out of the water. After the events of the third episode, King Alfred assigns Uthred, Young Ragner and their companions the mission to go […]
Following the slightly underwhelming second episode of The Last Kingdom‘s second season, the third episode was a big improvement – even if it suffered from pacing issues. Uthred (Alexander Dreymon) and his war companion Aidan (Anthony Cozens) have been sold into slavery and the new king of Cumberland and Northumbria, Guthred (Thure Lindhardt), suffers the ramifications. For not killing Uthred, […]
The second episode of the second season of The Last Kingdom is a downgrade from the previous episode and most of the previous season, relying too much on thin characterization and repeated plot points to allow its story to continue. After freeing Guthred (Thure Lindhardt) from the Danes and helping him to become king of Cumberland, Uhtred (Alexander Dreymon) has […]
For fans of shows like Game of Thrones and Vikings looking for a show to hold their attention, The Last Kingdom might be able to give them that fix with its second season (that just began airing), which picks up where its first season left off. After the battle of Edington, the Kingdom of Wessex has repelled the Danish invaders and […]
Just when I was starting to think that “Chapter Seven” was going to be all about recapping how our heroes got into this predicament and a quick review of David’s origin story, Legion went and flipped the script to give us one of the coolest sequences I’ve seen on television this year. There was a […]
Logan has been hit with critics, having a 92% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and our own Stanyo Zhelev gave it a positive review. It has already made over $437 million at the box office and is set to make more. The X-Men series has spanned 10 movies to this date and made just under $4.7 billion worldwide and at least two more […]
