FILM AND TV

EL CAMINO: A BREAKING BAD MOVIE (2019) REVIEW

El Camino is a brilliantly made and acted continuation of the series, but it is for the fans only and the plot is largely inconsequential.

BETWEEN TWO FERNS: THE MOVIE (2019) REVIEW

A generic plot and a stretched premise overshadow a few laughs in what amounts to an uneven comedy.

Haven't You Heard? I'm Sakamoto is a decent comedy with a premise that is stretched a little bit too far by the final episode.

NADIA: SECRET OF THE BLUE WATER REVIEW

Nadia: Secret of the Blue Water is an accomplished anime with deep characterisation and a compelling story.

Doctor Strange will go down as one of the best examples of a safe Marvel movie, it takes no risks in the plot or characterisation, but the execution has been pulled off so well that it is still an extremely enjoyable movie.

EASYSMX BACKLIT MECHANICAL KEYBOARD REVIEW

This keyboard offers excellent value for money, with a premium feel and an understated design, I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a keyboard in this category.

BRUT@L REVIEW (PC)

Brut@l is a well made game with a beautiful visual style and fun gameplay – it is a very polished title that whilst it reaches the top end of its peers, it doesn’t do anything to particularly stand apart.

REALPOLITIKS REVIEW (PC)

Realpolitiks is a very fun, polished, easy to use grand strategy game that will suck up your time and you won’t regret any of it.

A pleasing retro aesthetic and excellent gameplay make Gunmetal Arcadia a very fun game – but only if you are up to the challenge.

ZeGame is a well made, fun puzzle game with a level editor that is well worth the price of entry.

SUPER STAR PATH REVIEW (PC)

When playing a modern space shooter, it always feels like they have a point to make. They have to be the most extreme, the loudest, the craziest. Super Star Path does not stick to this trend.
