Riding the Bullet is the third episode of the final season, and it’s a helluva entry. Featuring a stellar supporting cast including Mako and James Hong, the episode hints at a bit of McCall’s (Edward Woodward) past as Control (Robert Lansing) reminds him that it’s his birthday, and an enemy from McCall’s past resurfaces.

Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022) – Dan Kwan, and Daniel Scheinert
An epic and hilarious story with an intimate tale of family and love at its heart. I couldn’t believe how much I enjoyed Everything Everywhere All at Once. I knew I would, but I was completely swept up in the tale, it’s toying with the multi-verse, and letting Michelle Yeoh show off all of her…

Director and star John Krasinksi (who also had his hand in the screenplay – and for some people will always be Jim from The Office, though this film definitely…
Chinatown (1974) – Roman Polanski
The final recommendation following my screening of The Big Sleep from the Great Movies – 100 Years of Film book is one of my favorite Jack Nicholson films, and undeniably one of the best noir films ever made. Jack plays detective J.J. Gittes, and it’s the 40s in the city of Angels. Hired on a…
