Unpacking (PC) – Review

There were two points, both very early on, where I had involuntary reactions to Unpacking, and it shows exactly why something so uncomplicated can be explosive. In Unpacking, you play as a young woman as she unpacks her life, doing so at different moments…

Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness Review

As huge of a fan as I am of the Resident Evil franchise, I have no qualms about missing any entries or media that looks a little less than stellar. Sometimes my curiosity does get the better of me though. The most…

Doctor Who “Time of the Doctor” – Review

Oh, if I was allowed to go space church, I’d be worshiping on my knees every day. If you create a church where everyone has to show up naked, you are going to attract perverts. Anyway, Christmas! No, not that thing that…

Sam and Max: Beyond Time and Space (Switch) Review

Last year, I really enjoyed my time with Sam & Max Save the World when it was released on Nintendo Switch. I had missed the Sam & Max games the first time around, so playing through the first “Season” of sorts, was…

Red Rocket (Film) Review

Warning: This review mentions controversial topics covered in the film. Reader discretion is advised. Sean Baker has a unique and firm touch on the vein of rural American poverty, and Red Rocket is the most exceptional example of what Baker’s unique talent has…

West Side Story (Film) Review

When I had first heard that Steven Spielberg would be making another version of West Side Story, I was more than a little hesitant. Despite making some of my favorite films, Spielberg’s output hasn’t impressed since Lincoln in 2012, while the initial images and teaser…

Doctor Who: Flux “The Vanquishers” – Review

What in the flying flux was that load horse bunkum? Ok, let’s just ask the question of which the whole series was setting up: The universe is ending, how does the Doctor save the day? Chris doesn’t even know, I think he…
