Netflix’s ‘Blood Brothers: Malcolm X & Muhammad Ali’: Film Review

The interviewees in Blood Brothers: Malcolm X & Muhammad Ali generously use words like “destiny,” “fate” and “prophecy” to describe the friendship between the two iconic civil rights activists at the center of this documentary. At first the words, a testament to the influence and deep meaning of the pair’s connection, sound beautiful. But as the film unfolds, meandering through their respective biographies before, with great speed, chronicling their three-year friendship, the nouns start to ring hollow.

Spider-Man Will Fight The Multiverse Sinister Six In No Way Home - Theory Explained

Spider-Man: No Way Home will explore the multiverse and the chaos it can bring to the Marvel Cinematic Universe a bit deeper, opening the doors to various threats, which has made fans believe Spider-Man will fight the multiverse Sinister Six.

Why Venom: Let There Be Carnage Is Rated PG-13

When the first Venom movie was in production there were a lot of fans wondering, and hoping, that the film could end up with an R-rating. The character was capable of extreme violence and so it was possible, if the movie decided to show that violence, that the movie could end up being made for mature audiences only. In the end, the movie came out with a PG-13 rating, and considering how well the movie did at the box office, that was probably the right call. And so it's little surprise that sequel Venom: Let There Be Carnage has now been officially given a PG-13 rating as well, but now we know why he MPAA's official rating has been confirmed on the Venom sequel and with it comes the....

Timothée Chalamet Compares Dune To Harry Potter

The highly anticipated reboot of Dune is steadily approaching, and Timothée Chalamet may have just psyched up a whole different fandom for the movie in just a sentence or two. The star makes a bold, but super logical, leap in comparing his upcoming film to the Harry Potter franchise, which on the surface only really are similar because they are both world building fantasy series. While the demographic of Frank Herbert’s Dune and JK Rowling’s Harry Potter series started out as for different demographics and have completely different aesthetics about them, Timothée Chalamet expertly compares the two in an interview with Deadline.

Kanye West – ‘DONDA’ review: some gems among lots – and lots – of filler

“You need something unexpected,” Kanye West – or should we say, Ye – opines on thumping new track ‘Believe What I Say’. Whether we need it or not, the rapper is the king of unpredictability, as characterised in the lead up to the much drawn-out release of ‘DONDA’. In the works since at least March 2020, the album was originally meant to be released 13 months ago and has in the last few weeks seemed on the verge of arriving, only to not materialise. Over the course of that will-he-or-won’t-he period, the star has held listening parties that have seen him levitate high up in the air...

Chvrches – ‘Screen Violence’ review: songs like horror vignettes, and their best album yet

At this point in our digitally dependent lives, we all know the horror that a life lived through screens can hold. We’ve been abused by trolls on the internet, and had our perceptions of ourselves warped by filters and our peers curating their own existences to look perfect, leaving out any hint of mundanity or bleakness. We’ve read the sensationalised headlines about video games driving good people to do bad things, or how increasingly gory horror movies are desensitising us to real-world violence. After taking all that in, would you want to listen to an album that’s based around those very things?

Julia Bardo: Manchester-via-Italy songwriter finding her creative home in the North

The meaning of home can be much more complex than being a single physical space. It can be a memory, a person, a place, a feeling. One thing is for sure, though: for better or worse, home is tied to our own sense of identity, and on Julia Bardo’s debut album ‘Bauhaus, L’Appartamento’ the singer/songwriter wrestles with her own sense of self. Bardo’s story starts in northern Italy, where she grew up facing the common conundrum of living in a rural village: the idyllic scenes of nature surrounding you on all sides juxtapose with the mundanity of having relatively little to do.
