Martin Carr reviews the first episode of Supergirl season 2… Casting is key in any programme and Supergirl had one big choice to make if this new season was going to work. In Tyler Hoechlin they seem to have found a perfect fit for that Clark Kent backslash Superman persona. Modelled as ever on Christopher […]
The Strain Season 3 Episode 6 Review – ‘The Battle For Central Park’
Martin Carr reviews the sixth episode of The Strain season 3… This plays out like an extended section of the Cameron classic Aliens. Dark tunnels, pitch black caverns filled with twitching bodies and small factions of mercenaries poorly equipped for carnage. There are the occasional diversions into the daylight which primarily involve people looking concerned, […]
Gotham Season 3 Episode 3 Review – ‘Look Into My Eyes’
Martin Carr reviews the third episode of Gotham season 3… Once again Gotham season three is jam packed full of narrative tangents, colourful characterisations and enough kookiness to keep those sceptics at bay. With plotlines gaining traction it felt like Gotham was once again moving in the right direction. A none too subtle homage to the […]
The Strain Season 3 Episode 5 Review – ‘Madness’
Martin Carr reviews the fifth episode of The Strain season 3… True moments of darkness pepper this episode revealing more back story, more obsessive behaviour and a scene or two of close and personal brain dissection. Distrust is still rife between Setrakian and Quinlan while their common bond remains ‘The Master’. What ‘Madness’ demonstrates is […]
Gotham Season 3 Episode 2 Review – ‘Burn the Witch’
Martin Carr reviews the second episode of Gotham season 3… Dare I say that Gotham is getting exciting? Proper plotlines, dynamic characters and a warped reality which seems to work perfectly. An off the reservation beatnik cop with a drinking problem, lunatics running the nightly entertainment and crime bosses dictating to an enthralled media. I […]
Gotham Season 3 Episode 1 Review – ‘Better To Reign In Hell…’
Martin Carr reviews the first episode of Gotham season 3… There is a dark, sordid undercurrent to this opening episode which promises much and delivers more. Gotham spends its first forty minutes and change planting seeds and continuing the story with economy and no little confidence. Canvases have been broadened, characters deliver swagger along with […]
The Strain Season 3 Episode 4 Review – ‘Gone But Not Forgotten’
Martin Carr reviews the fourth episode of The Strain season 3… This episode is one long amount of aftermath. Fallout from the destruction of a singular foe in those final moments of episode three. Scattered and leaderless the enemy roam free with no fixed goal, no self-discipline and only an unchecked hunger for company. Elsewhere […]
The Strain Season 3 Episode 3 Review – ‘First Born’
Martin Carr reviews the third episode of The Strain season 3… For fans of the book trilogy this is their episode. I say it because Quinlan remains a firm favourite of those who discovered The Strain, before television got their mucky little paws on the written word. What happens in and around those events this […]
Scream: The TV Series Season 2 Episode 12 Review – ‘When A Stranger Calls’
Martin Carr reviews the twelfth episode of Scream: The TV Series season 2… Little known but relevant, ‘When A Stranger Calls’ mirrors the predictable conclusion to Scream as it concludes for another season. On the run but still trying to figure out who their tormentor might be, Audrey and Emma hightail it from one end […]
The Strain Season 3 Episode 1 Review – ‘New York Strong’
Martin Carr reviews the first episode of The Strain season 3… This opener for season three is a solid balance of action beats, character development and reintroduction for the uninitiated. For those who managed to make it through the non-event of season one and massively improved middle chapter, there feels like a change in the […]
