Fans of Netflix crime thriller say ‘my jaw was on the floor’ | Films | Entertainment

Netflix viewers have been left utterly gobsmacked by the streaming giant’s latest must-see series.  Film enthusiast Eccy Review, who regularly posts about new TV shows and films on his social media platforms, expressed his astonishment at the show His & Hers.

Launched on the platform on January 8, subscribers have been avidly watching the series and sharing their reactions online. Eccy Reviews exclaimed: “Now, you need to be checking out this show on Netflix, It’s a dark, gritty crime thriller which I absolutely love and it doesn’t let me down whatsoever. I loved every single second of this show and I binged the entire series in one sitting, when it came to the last episode, my jaw was on the floor.”

His & Hers centres around a journalist who investigates a murder in her hometown, clashing with a suspicious detective. The IMDb synopsis states: “Set in the sweltering heat of Atlanta, Anna lives in haunting reclusivity, fading away from her friends and career as a journalist.

“But when she overhears about a murder in Dahlonega, the sleepy town where she grew up, Anna is snapped back to life, pouncing on the case and searching for answers. “Detective Jack Harper is strangely suspicious of her involvement, chasing her into the crosshairs of his own investigation. There are two sides to every story: his and hers, which means someone is always lying.”

Reacting to his post, one viewer commented: “Gonna start watching it today.” A second chimed in: “His & Hers on Netflix is fire.”

A third remarked: “Sorry to be smug but I’d worked it out half way through!”

In an IMDb review, one viewer wrote: “Okay, the acting was strong, overall everything was on point but maybe slow. I believed I knew who was the killer, and I was like – okay too predictable, who made this? The ending was brilliant, and I will stop here. I wanted to give a five but now it is good eight.

“Also, I hated every character of Rachel, Helen, Catherine, and also Zoe. Bunch of violent, complex brats and women they were, they disgusted me.”

Someone else shared: “I have been excitedly awaiting this series since I read the book about a year ago. The book was amazing so I had high hopes for this adaptation.

“As book adaptations go, this is definitely one of the best I’ve seen. Naturally there are some differences but knowing the book, these changes do make sense as TV shows cannot give as much of a character background or insight as a book can.

“The acting was superb, naturally I knew who the killer was but I think this show did a good job of keeping viewers guessing and providing multiple suspects. My only real complaint is that the final showdown wasn’t as dramatic or lengthy as in a book, and I felt this was over too quickly in the TV show.

“It would have been more dramatic to extend it a bit, as I felt there was all this suspense and build up to that moment and then it was over in a flash. The bottom line is, I highly recommend watching this series, and I absolutely recommend reading the original book.”

28 Years Later The Bone Temple review – Ralph Fiennes takes on Jimmy Savile cult | Films | Entertainment

CHANNEL TODAY BROADCASTING CORPORATION

Published

on


Last year, original 28 Days Later writer Alex Garland and director Danny Boyle returned to the British zombie franchise with 28 Years Later.

Only Garland has penned a trilogy, with second film 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple having been shot back-to-back with the 2025 film, only this time directed by Nia DaCosta.

Continuing the post-apocalyptic horror adventures of young Spike (Alfie Williams) growing up on a quarantined 2030 Britain, The Bone Temple begins right where 28 Years Later ended.

The young Geordie has reluctantly joined a bizarre, ultra-violent cult of Satanists who dress as Jimmy Savile. Yes, you read that correctly.

Led by regular big screen villain Jack O’Connell in a disturbing camp performance as Sir Lord Jimmy Crystal, this gang of sadists follows in the footsteps of A Clockwork Orange droogs.

They are uniformed thugs bent on torturing fellow survivors in the most horrific ways in the service of the Devil, who they believe began the plague in 2002.

In contrast to their human monstrousness, Ralph Fiennes returns as the gentle hermit Dr Kelson, a GP who has built his Bone Temple to the memory of the dead, both infected and not. In his peaceful island haven, he tries to humanise and tame Samson, the enormously well-endowed Alpha zombie from the first film. Boyle, who is on producer duties for the second movie, shared that while the first film is about family, the follow-up explores the nature of evil. Just as 28 Years Later was filled with explicit British imagery, The Bone Temple is littered with extremely dark Biblical themes.

7 of the worst World War 2 films ever made ranked and number one will shock you | TV & Radio | Showbiz & TV

CHANNEL TODAY BROADCASTING CORPORATION

Published

on


Cinemagoers and history buffs alike often enjoy watching the realities of war depicted on the big screen. The stories are often rich in action, drama and adventure while still displaying the conflict that ensued on the battlefield to capturing the emotion of the time. The movies and filmmakers ensure the traumas of World War II are not forgotten.

The best WWII dramas are often cited as combat films including Saving Private Ryan to harrowing movies including Schindler’s List. Unfortunately, not every portrayal of this period have captivated audiences, from historical inaccuracies to blockbuster duds. Express.co.uk has counted down the worst war films ranked by critics and scores on Rotten Tomatoes.

Red Tails

7. Red Tails (2012)

Directed by Anthony Hemingway

The high-flying aerial film was based on the true story about the Civil Aeronautics Authority who selected 13 black cadets to become part of an experimental programme at the Tuskegee Institute in Alabama during World War Two. The programme aimed for the cadets to become fighter pilots for the Army. While historians have credited the film for capturing the racial discrimination the men faced and were highly respected bomber escorts, the film exaggerated the number of jet kills. In addition, the film used CGI which was unappealing to some audience reviewers with the narrative heavily focussed on action and romance.

Rating: Critics have given the film a score of 44% as one shared: “I have seen my share of war movies but this was one of the worst. To much historical flaws.”

1941

1941 (1979) 

Directed by Steven Spielberg

1941 is an American war comedy film which stars an ensemble cast including Dan Aykroyd, Ned Beatty, John Belushi, John Candy, Christopher Lee, Tim Matheson, Toshiro Mifune, Robert Stack, Nancy Allen, and Mickey Rourke in his film debut. The story involves a panic in the Los Angeles area after the December 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor. Off the back of Jaws, Spielberg was at the height of his acclaimed fame but decided to tackle World War II with comedy. Released in December 1979, it was met with savage reviews and although would go on to make $95million (£70 million) it is still considered a theatrical failure.

Rating: Reviewers have hit the comedy war film flop with a dismal 33% rating. One critic argued it was a “lot of noise for a little output” others claimed the movie is underrated.

Windtalkers

5. Windtalkers (2002)

Directed by John Woo

The movie that starred Nicholas Cage sheds a light on World War II’s unsung war heroes and had all the ingredients for success. Marine Joe Enders (Nicolas Cage) is assigned to protect Ben Yahzee (Adam Beach) a Navajo code talker, the Marines’ new secret weapon. Enders’ orders are to protect his code talker, but if Yahzee falls into enemy hands he must protect the code at all costs. The war film is set on the backdrop of the horrific Battle of Saipan.

However critics lambasted the movie which sidelined many of the supporting characters, some of who are barely shown at all with many suggesting it was full of cliches and tired tropes.

Rating: The film scored 33% on Rotten Tomatoes. A reviewer said: “Thought it was a pretty solid war film. Yes, it was cliched but held my interest if you follow war films. The suggestion that it was too violent, is ridiculous. Combine John Woo with WWII and thus is what you get.”

Captain Corelli's Mandolin

4. Captain Corelli’s Mandolin

Directed by John Madden

Nicholas Cage makes the list for a second time with a tale about the enduring hope of love and the devastating brutality of war, set amid the Italian occupation of Greece during World War II. An officer falls in love with the daughter (played by Penolope Cruz) of the village doctor and he begins to question his reasons for fighting. The pair must later choose between each other or pledging allegiance to their respective countries.

Critics branded the film dull heavily centred on their romance but the two leads lack on-screen chemistry making the tale unbelievable.

Rating: It has scored an unimpressive score of 28% on Rotten Tomatoes as one critic claimed it’s “long, unoriginal and uninteresting”.
