January 23, 2022 by Joe Lipsett

A blonde woman stares throw a wrought iron gate

A woman-in-danger thriller set in a foreign locale? This is catnip!

Game Of Thrones review – 4×05: ‘First Of His Name’

May 5, 2014 by Joe Lipsett

It’s ladies week on Game Of Thrones as women dominate the narrative. Or rather the manner in which they have no control or are constantly threatened by violence dominates the narrative.

Game Of Thrones review – 4×04: ‘Oathkeeper’

April 28, 2014 by Joe Lipsett

After last week‘s controversy filled outing, Game Of Thrones spends a week lining up plots that will pay off later. Too bad the finished effect drags a touch.

Film Review: Pacific Rim

July 13, 2013 by Joe Lipsett

The most “summery” of summer action films has arrived in the form of Guillermo del Toro’s Pacific Rim, or as it’s known by the general populace, Monsters vs Robots. So what can you expect from the 2+ hours smashdown?

Game Of Thrones review – 3×04: ‘And Now His Watch Is Ended’

April 22, 2013 by Joe Lipsett

Courtesy of HBO

The action starts to heat up (in some cases literally) as Game Of Thrones moves into the meat of the season. There’s more than one bold power move being played as showrunners Benioff and Weiss deliver another knock-out humdinger of an episode.

Revenge review – 2×18: ‘Masquerade’

April 1, 2013 by Joe Lipsett

Courtesy of ABC

The claws come out as everyone initiates power plays and coups against their enemies in a deliciously melodramatic hour that is hampered solely by a continued focus on woh-woh Padma (Dilshad Vadsaria).
