Discovering The Visit quietly streaming on Netflix feels a bit like opening a cupboard you haven’t touched in years and finding something unexpectedly sharp inside. Directed by the ever-polarising, frequently misnamed, but always fascinating M.

Review: The Ex-Wife Season 1 — Love, Lies, and a Whole Lot of Ex-tra Drama
Streaming on Amazon Prime Let’s start with the title — The Ex-Wife. Simple, sharp, and oh-so-suggestive. Because let’s be honest — if there’s one thing people love more than falling in love, it’s watching other people’s relationships fall apart. Add a messy triangle (or, in this case, something more like a Bermuda Triangle of emotions),Continue reading “Review: The Ex-Wife Season 1 — Love, Lies, and a Whole Lot of Ex-tra Drama”

I See You : Netflix Movie Review
There are few movies that manage to do what I See You does: build suspense so patiently, with so many layers, that by the time the final twist hits, you’re both stunned and admiring how every earlier scene was bait, misdirection, or subtle foreshadowing.

Book Review: She Didn’t See It Coming by Shari Lapena
I’ve always had a soft spot for Shari Lapena’s books.

But no, Oddity said, “Hold my ghost.” It starts off smooth—like, too smooth.
