Shaun Munro reviews Turbo Golf Racing (in early access)… Released this past week in Early Access, Turbo Golf Racing seeks to do for golf what Rocket League did for football. And while it’s easy to dismiss Hugecalf Studios’ (When Ski Lifts Go Wrong) rocket-powered car golfer as another me-too attempt to cash-in on that game’s mammoth success, […]

Netflix Review – Resident Evil
Shaun Munro reviews Netflix’s new live-action Resident Evil series… Despite being one of the most popular, iconic, and seemingly cinema-ready video game franchises there is, the track record of Resident Evil’s live-action adaptations to date is spotty-at-best, and that’s if we’re being really kind. Beyond Paul W.S. Anderson’s entertainingly campy 2002 movie, the Resident Evil […]

The Umbrella Academy – Season 3 Review
Shaun Munro reviews The Umbrella Academy Season 3… Releasing mere weeks after Netflix’s decent-but-overstuffed fourth volume of Stranger Things, the third season of the streamer’s hit superhero series The Umbrella Academy feels comparatively svelte and breezy, with each of its 10 fast-moving episodes mercifully clocking in at far less than an hour in length. While […]

Movie Review – Faya Dayi (2021)
Faya Dayi, 2021. Written and directed by Jessica Beshir. SYNOPSIS: A spiritual journey into the highlands of Harar, immersed in the rituals of khat, a leaf Sufi Muslims chewed for centuries for religious meditations – and Ethiopia’s most lucrative cash crop today. Jessica Beshir’s feature documentary debut certainly isn’t the liveliest sit to be sought […]
Video Game Review – The Quarry
Shaun Munro reviews The Quarry… If Supermassive Games’ Until Dawn confirmed the market thirst for horror-themed interactive video games, the developer’s efforts since has largely failed to capitalise on that promise. The three Dark Pictures Anthology titles released to date have ranged from bad to acceptable, with their more self-serious tone and bite-sized format feeling […]
