Game of Thrones – Season 5 Episode 7: “The Gift”

This is episode seven of a season which so far has had a lot of ups and downs. It certainly doesn’t feel like the seventh episode. Let’s see if this episode makes up for the trauma of the final scene of episode six.

Game of Thrones – Season 5 Episode 6: “Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken”

The title of episode six is the words of the House Martell of Dorne, a statement of their peoples’ resilience and resistance. This episode’s title is incredibly ironic in a unfunny sense, as several characters emerged broken by its conclusion. Before watching this episode I accidentally read a spoiler about it that made me very […]

Noam Murro) is an action-packed historical war film loosely based on the events of the Battles of Artemisium and Salamis, in the year 480 BCE.

Genre Grandeur: 300 (2007)

Another month goes by, and it’s time for the excellent Genre Grandeur over at MovieRob! The theme for August was war films, and I chose a film about a different kind of war; that is, the Battle of Thermopylae that occurred during the Persian Wars in Ancient Greece. There have been lots of amazing reviews […]

Game of Thrones – Season 4 Episode 10: “The Children”

The last episode of season four! Let’s get right into it. As always, please watch the episode before reading this, as this recap/review is filled to the brim with spoilers.

Game of Thrones – Season 4 Episode 9: “The Watchers on the Wall”

This episode is the second last of the season. Traditionally, the ninth episode has been the biggest and brightest of each season, boasting key events such as a number of significant character deaths, and one giant battle. Will this ninth episode live up to the standards set by the others? Read on! But please beware […]

Let’s all hold hands and cry together. Please watch this week’s episode before reading this recap/review/reflection. I can’t emphasise enough how much of a heartbreaker this one was. Onwards!
