TV Review – The Comey Rule
Martin Carr reviews The Comey Rule… Adapted and directed by Billy Ray who has given us both Captain Phillips and Gemini Man, The Comey Rule is four hours of serious political entertainment.

TV Review – Monsterland
Martin Carr reviews Hulu’s Monsterland… Fresh from Annapurna’s television subsidiary and airing October 2nd on Hulu comes Monsterland.
