Latest articles and reviews from our team

Never played D&D, never watched Critical Role — and Season 1 blew me away completely. The first episode alone is a masterclass in how to hook an audience.

Season 2 goes deeper on every character and raises the stakes with the Chroma Conclave arc. No single episode tops Season 1's premiere, but the whole season is brilliant. Rating: 9.

Season 3 wraps the Chroma Conclave and pushes into Vecna territory. Still genuinely great animated television — a worthy ending to the trilogy, even if it's the least perfect of the three.

The most misunderstood Pixar film in years. Lightyear explores time dilation, loss, and obsessive focus with surprising maturity. SOX the robot cat is an instant classic. Rating: 7/10.

The 1995 Pixar original that rewrote the rules of animation and told a story about jealousy, friendship, and being replaced that hits differently when you are a dad.

Toy Story 2 is the rare sequel that matches and arguably surpasses the original. Jessie's backstory will ruin you. Woody's identity crisis is real. Rating: 8/10.

Andy goes to college. The toys face the incinerator. Every parent in the cinema wept. Toy Story 3 is the finest animated farewell in cinema history. Rating: 8/10.

Toy Story 4 is technically Pixar's finest work. It is also an epilogue nobody asked for after Part 3's perfect goodbye. Forky is funny. The ending is wrong. Rating: 6/10.
