The Flash Season 3 Episode 17 Review – ‘Duet’

by

Jessie Robertson reviews the seventeenth episode of The Flash season 3… Music Meister….or Cupid? Tonight was the “musical” episode and while it had its flashes of pomp, circumstance and oh yes, the stars of our weekly superhero show belting out the tunes, it was more plot than musical. I believe most people thought (like myself) […]

Arrow Season 5 Episode 19 Review – ‘Dangerous Liaisons’

by

Jessie Robertson reviews the nineteenth episode of Arrow season 5… Part Cyber Crime Thriller, Part Heartwarming Family Drama, Arrow does it all!

Star Wars Identities – The Exhibition @ The O2 London Review

by

Thomas Harris reviews Star Wars Identities – The Exhibition at the O2… The 02 Arena, somewhat appropriately, looks a hell of a lot like a monolithic spacecraft descended upon Greenwich. With it’s protruding antennae and it’s vast almost cityscape-come-Brazil-capitalist-hell hole underbelly, it’s an appropriate fit for an exhibition celebrating all things Star Wars. Past restaurants, an […]
