Review of the TV Series-“The Walking Dead”

  Even if you are uninitiated to the whole zombie-pop culture, you must have heard of the TV series “The Walking Dead.” But, is it worthy of a watch? While all the “The Walking Dead” fans would let you know that it is good enough to be called the best zombie-based show on the planet, some may disagree. Let us parse into it. There is no perfect genre to describe “The Walking Dead.” The TV series spans many genres, including horror, crime, action, gore, and visceral visuals. The graphic imagery sometimes churns your stomach almost to the breaking point, and in addition to that, there are enough guns, blood, and zombies to capture your imagination. You cannot watch it with your children, though, as there are some uncensored and freehold-swearing along with love and crime scenes, which makes it pretty awkward family viewing, if not impossible. Many viewers have rated the series as 16+, but there are often references to pregnancy, birth control, coercion, and other things. So, if you want t

  The highly anticipated Disney+ series has stood up for what it had promised. Hard-hitting dialogues and breathtaking violence. And, it is going decently…so far. If you are planning to get yourself in front of a laptop over the weekend to watch some entertaining show, “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier” is the one you should go for.

The series is violent, created with all the necessary blocks required for an entertaining crime series deeply rooted in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and embedded in the offcuts left by the Avengers: Endgame. The TV series is banking on a plethora of action sequences filled with intriguing stunts and combat styles powered by adequate special effects that provide all the reminiscences of the 2014 film Capt

Review of the Film-“Zack Snyder’s Justice League”

  If we put the film in juxtaposition with the critically battered 2017 film, then it is definitely several folds notched up. However, if we put things in the neutral perspective, then four hours is a slight drag as far as fan service is concerned. Regardless of that, several critics believe that context is the key if we want to dissect Zack Snyder’s version of the Justice League, and some of the facets that left us clueless in the 2017 film make some sense now. It cannot be denied that “Zack Snyder’s Justice League” does have its artistic flaws and does look out of sorts sometimes, yet the moment you put this 4-hour long tedious (and I am not saying this lightly) journey into the context of preceding DCEU films, every parsed element of the film plays its syntactic part. With his sincere effort, Zack Snyder had tried to put the impetus on the fact that despite the flaws and extremely deep controversies, DCEU deserved a chance. In short words, Zack Snyder is definitely a better artist t
