WWE WrestleMania 33 Review

by

Liam Hoofe reviews WrestleMania 33… Well, what a night that was. Clocking in at over 7 hours Wrestlemania 33 was quite the endurance test (finishing at 6:10am in my time-zone.) For once, though, the length of the event felt justified and WWE delivered a truly great Wrestlemania that will be fondly remembered for years to […]

24: Legacy Season 1 Episode 10 Review – ‘9:00 PM – 10:00 PM’

by

Ricky Church reviews the tenth episode of 24: Legacy… Well, the comparisons to 24: Legacy and its predecessor grew even more with its latest episode. The cast once again gave a strong performance, but not even they could elevate ‘9:00 PM – 10:00 PM’ past its story problems. One of my constant criticisms of the […]

Star Wars Rebels Season 3 Episode 18 – ‘Double Agent Droid’

by

Chris Cooper reviews Star Wars Rebels – ‘Double Agent Droid’… R2-D2 and C-3P0 are the most recognisable droids in Star Wars. They’re antagonistic but ultimately deeply caring relationship is told over decades and shows no sign of stopping. Personally though, I find the golden half of the pair rather annoying. Not Jar Jar levels, but […]
