Movie Review: Spy Kids: Armageddon Sep 22, 2023

Show notes

The Spy Kids franchise returns after a 12-year-absence with another take on the series’ primary premise: precocious children of spies saving their parents when they get in trouble. It’s a predictable, but surprisingly family-friendly, action-adventure streaming on Netflix now.

Movie Review: A Haunting in Venice Sep 15, 2023

Show notes

Kenneth Branagh returns for a third time as Hercule Poirot, Agatha Christie’s mustachioed Belgian detective. This time around, he’s trying to prove that a medium supposedly communicating with the dead is a fraud. It’s harder than it seems in a story with a lot of darkly spiritual content.

TV Review: Ahsoka Sep 14, 2023

Show notes

Disney+’s Ahsoka builds on the stories built in animated series such as The Clone Wars and Rebels—and it does so in a mostly clean show.
