    Okay, so Ross and Monica’s Dad is actually the coolest man on the planet?!?

  • The King

    The King

    ★★★

    Has its moments and the third act is strong, but damn was this dull. Besides Chalamet’s epic FOR ENGLAND speech, this completely lacks life or energy. 

    Beautiful score and Timmy is in his bag but I wanted more.

    RPatz with a French accent was… something.

    If there’s two things I love it’s one shots and Stephen Graham, So this was up my street. What I didn’t expect was such a sad, deeply moving and hard hitting watch. 

    Such an impressive achievement. The real time one shot episodes does mean a lack of character development and backstory, but it leads to such a visceral and well executed little show. 

    The entire cast were simply excellent. Best I’ve seen from Ashley Walters outside of Top Boy. The young Owen Cooper is about to be a star.

  • Step Brothers

    Step Brothers

    ★★★★

    “Hey Brennan, thanks for coming up” 
    “You got it dragon” 

    Remains a comedy classic imo. 17 years old and still has me laughing and smiling from start to finish. Great cast, everyone plays it perfectly. 

    The Catalina Wine Mixer is one of the best finales to a comedy ever.
