As the old saying goes; “don’t judge a book by its cover” and that saying applies wholeheartedly to Ozark. It’s dark, new and could be the new Bloodline.

‘Five Came Back’ is a Documentary that Explores WWII from a Fascinating New Perspective
By: Tom Magennis As an aspiring filmmaker, World War Two is an odd subject for me.

Marvel’s ‘Iron Fist’ Didn’t Work and it’s Definitely Worth Discussing That.
By: Tom Magennis Marvel and Netflix’s Iron Fist is bad. Not awful, but fairly bad. To be fair to it, it’s no Suicide Squad. I sat through Suicide Squad.

From Silicon Valley to Game of Thrones HBO puts out content that draws in fans and critics alike creating an almost cult like status. But ladies and gentlemen I bring tidings of great joy. HBO have finally produced […]
