Martin Carr reviews the third episode of Supergirl… It’s so much easier to write a bad review. For anyone who reads but never writes them they are often fun, scathing and without mercy. Reason being that the reviewer has something to get their collective teeth into. Issues arise when you actually like the show but […]
Supergirl Season 1 Episode 2 Review – ‘Stronger Together’
Martin Carr reviews the second episode of Supergirl… There are so many clever little touches in this second episode that people will be spoilt for choice. Taking the route of a superhero in training, Supergirl’s new throw of the dice shows progression without complacency. Testing speed, control and initiative in the field, Kara displays all […]
Gotham Season 2 Episode 8 Review – ‘Tonight’s The Night’
Martin Carr reviews the eighth episode of Gotham season 2… Barbara Gordon has been ill served of late. Her particular brand of crazy has been side lined by the whip wielding, bodice filling Tabitha Galavan. All sass and sado-masochism wrapped up in a brothel madam demeanour. In other words Jessica Lucas has been a distraction. […]
Gotham Season 2 Episode 6 Review – ‘By Fire’
Martin Carr reviews the sixth episode of Gotham Season 2… This lights a fire under you in more ways than one. ‘By Fire’ sees the transformation of Bridget into one nasty piece of work. Geared up with a flamethrower and goggles, we see a young lady losing her grip on reality. That she finally snaps […]
Gotham Season 2 Episode 7 Review – ‘Mommy’s Little Monster’
Martin Carr reviews the seventh episode of Gotham season 2… Minutes in and Penguin cradles his dead mother as she takes her final breathe. Double crossed and lead into a steel sprung trap, Lord Taylor does a Daredevil and plunges through plate glass. So it is that episode seven of Gotham throws down a gauntlet to […]
Supergirl Season 1 Episode 1 Review – ‘Pilot’
Martin Carr reviews the first episode of Supergirl… There are those who will consider this a bad idea. Not Supergirl. That remains a good idea poorly executed. Anyone who sat through the Helen Slater, Faye Dunaway travesty will understand where I am coming from. No, what I am talking about is having a man review […]
Gotham Season 2 Episode 5 Review – ‘Scarification’
Martin Carr reviews the fifth episode of Gotham Season 2… Back history, pipe bombs and flame retardant arsonists are just a few things on offer this week in Gotham. Giving us an antique blade, old wife’s tale and a suitably creepy woman to impart said story just adds atmosphere. With Penguin still on a choke […]
Gotham Season 2 Episode 4 Review – ‘Strike Force’
Martin Carr reviews the fourth episode of Gotham season 2… Adding a militant edge to this show was someone else’s bright idea. Gotham needed something to combat the rise of these villains and their answer came in spades this week. By bringing in Michael Chiklis as Nathaniel Barnes, show runners have hopefully brought someone capable […]
The Strain Season 2 Episode 12 Review – ‘Dead End’
Martin Carr reviews the twelfth episode of The Strain season 2… In typical fashion I am yet again running to catch up. Procrastination should replace my middle name as Christian no longer seems adequate. Legend has it that Robert Towne, master screenwriter, was horrendous at finishing things. There would always be a reason, an emergency, or […]
The Strain Season 2 Episode 13 Review – ‘Night Train’
Martin Carr reviews the season finale episode of The Strain season 2… A slaughter house and the promise of processed carcasses is one stark metaphor for a finale. In this respect The Strain spares no quarter in its desire to push the boundaries of expectation. Like a grand high executioner Eichorst bears witness to this feat […]
