Ben Leonberg's Good Boy is a really interesting and unique concept for a horror movie, which is something I don't think can be said a lot today! It's wonderfully creative, showing a man being haunted by some kind of demon, from the perspective of his loyal dog, Indy.

Unfortunately, putting the brilliant premise aside, it suffers from a lot of the same problems as many other modern horrors. The script is pretty bad at times, there are a few weird things in the story that aren't explained at all, and a lot of the scares are either predictable or just not that scary. In fact, the movie isn't actually very frightening at all up until the climax. Most of it is just unnerving and seems to rely on the viewer's concern for the dog's wellbeing. That said... It works

I'm giving it a 5/10 for the wonderful and creative premise that's ruined by some poor writing and the general execution.

Marvel Studios' Eyes Of Wakanda is a four-part anthology series, with each episode following a different Wakandan War Dog during different time periods. With the nice animation, good action, well thought-through stories and interesting characters, it's a moderately entertaining mini-series that expands nicely on the lore of the Wakanda in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

It may not necessarily be a good series, but it's definitely enjoyable. Unfortunately, there are way better ways to pass a couple of hours, and the contents of this series could quite easily be summarised in a 60-second video on YouTube or TikTok. Because of this, I wouldn't recommend it to casual fans. I'd only suggest that you watch it if you're a hardcore fan of the MCU, or you're a fan of Marvel Comics (because Episode 3 made me very happy as someone that's been a life-long fan of a particular mystical character).

This episode gives Eyes Of Wakanda a solid finale, bringing-together the previous episodes really nicely, and even including a reference to Ryan Coogler's Black Panther (2018)! It's a good episode with great animation, a well thought-out story, decent action and a solid script!

Even though it's not great, it's the best episode of the series AND is an above-average MCU finale!
