Martin Carr reviews the twenty-first episode of Gotham season 2… Back in the saddle and circling the wagons is how I can best describe my position right now. With the re-emergence of a person we thought ourselves well rid of Gotham throws another spanner in the works. To reveal is to spoil but suffice to […]
Supergirl Season 1 Episode 20 Review – ‘Better Angels’
Martin Carr reviews the season finale of Supergirl season 1… Once more I find myself late to the party. A week behind on finale analysis after all that dust has settled and we stand in the aftermath of Supergirl Mark II. As ever it was work which put pay to deadlines, but that would be […]
Gotham Season 2 Episode 19 Review – ‘Azrael’
Martin Carr reviews the nineteenth episode of Gotham season 2… Gotham is turning into a spider web. Multiple plotlines, character threads and so many balls in the air, it makes every episode an interesting proposition. With the emergence of a brainwashed ex-Mayor of Gotham running rampant in forged steel armour, James Frain finally gets to […]
Gotham Season 2 Episode 18 Review – ‘Pinewood’
Martin Carr reviews the eighteenth episode of Gotham season 2… Does anyone remember that moment from Total Recall when Arnie’s cab driver removes his false arm? All backlit, reptilian mandible about two feet long with seriously sharp talons attached? That one. In term of moments on film it ranks with the boy on a tricycle […]
Better Call Saul Season 2 Episode 10 Review – ‘Klick’
Martin Carr reviews the tenth episode of Better Call Saul season 2… For season finales this is a weird one. There is no resolution, there is no big finish, in fact there’s just continuation. That’s not to say there’s no drama, just no big finish. It uses flashback to expand on a deep bond between […]
Better Call Saul Season 2 Episode 9 Review – ‘Nailed’
Martin Carr reviews the ninth episode of Better Call Saul season 2… By Christ Odenkirk is one complex actor. Now I don’t mean to blaspheme because such things are unnecessary until provoked and genuine in their delivery, but come on. If anything or anyone manages to blindside you more than Jimmy McGill then I want […]
Gotham Season 2 Episode 17 Review – ‘Into The Woods’
Martin Carr reviews the seventeenth episode of Gotham season 2… Episode seventeen entitled ‘Into The Woods’ has nothing to do Sondheim. There is no warbling, no Meryl Streep and mercifully no Johnny Depp looking shifty amongst the undergrowth. Instead we get gothic melodrama, boatloads of crazy and a showdown which is more Millers Crossing than […]
Supergirl Season 1 Episode 19 Review – ‘Myriad’
Martin Carr reviews the nineteenth episode of Supergirl… Mass extinction has always been a good subject for drama, because historically people have killed, maimed, destroyed and segregated without compunction. Sparing you the lecture let’s just say cultures have done, will do and continue doing heinous things under the misguided belief that they are right. Supergirl […]
Better Call Saul Season 2 Episode 7 Review – ‘Inflatable’
Martin Carr reviews the seventh episode of Better Call Saul season 2… What I like about Better Call Saul is the pace. That feeling which implies there is no rush and ultimately this programme is all about the long game. Because if you notice not a lot really happens here, although things do happen eventually. Breaking […]
Better Call Saul Season 2 Episode 8 – ‘Fifi’
Martin Carr reviews the eighth episode of Better Call Saul season 2… It took me a while to work out how Saul works. To begin with I figured it was the usual mix of ongoing story stretched over several episodes to form a cohesive whole, but this week the penny dropped. Sure there is the […]
