The Serpent
A brilliant, dark, and horrifying retelling of the real-world killings of tourists along the hippie trails in the '70s. Expertly crafted, brilliantly performed, and utterly riveting.

An enthralling and enjoyable glimpse into a past that feels depressingly modern, for all the wrong reasons, held together by an exceptional cast.
A decent attempt at satirising 2020 via the medium of mockumentary, with a stellar cast but lacklustre writing and little original to say.
Toe-tapping hilarity in one of the finest teen comedies for years, with a great cast and competent enough central plot.
A decent sequel that builds out the shared mythology of the Trolls whilst doubling-down on the musical core of the first film.
A fun, pop-filled romp through a child's sugar-infused fever dream with a surprising amount of originality to the world and creature designs.
At times horrifying, at times mesmerising. A bit of a mess, but nowhere near as bad as it has been built up to be, with some decent performances and at least a bit of the soul of the stage show left intact.
A whimsical dive into the wider Moomin universe, though a bit too threadbare and bizarre for anyone but kids to really enjoy.
A wonderfully inventive concept pulled off thanks to some great humour, excellent observationally storytelling, and a fantastic cast. The sequel feels a little more self-indulgent, but the first season is an instant classic.
A fantastical romp through the imagination of a man whose life seems set to conspire against him, all set in true Victoriana. Combine with an exceptional cast and some clever dialogue and the result is delightful.
An incredibly unique analysis of the dangers of nationalism, the idiocies of Nazi ideology, and the blindness that propaganda can breed. That it's bundled up in reams of dark humour and some brilliant performances is just the cherry on top.
