Well, what can I say?
Predator: Badlands is a fantastic addition to the franchise, offering a refreshing perspective by placing the Predator itself in the role of the protagonist. The story delivers a fun, engaging adventure while exploring deeper questions about the Predator universe. Fans will also appreciate the subtle elements and influences drawn from Alien: Earth, adding an extra layer of intrigue to the experience.
If you're a film junkie like myself then you'll appreciate the time and effort that Dan Trachtenberg and everyone else put in to make this happen.
I enjoyed it. Not my place to say where it could have been improved. It is what it is.
Thank you.

Alien: Earth is a bold and imaginative addition to the Aliens universe. The creativity behind the alien life forms is absolutely mind-blowing, pushing the franchise into fascinating new territory while staying true to its roots.
The weekly release schedule built great anticipation and I was genuinely excited each time a new episode arrived.
Overall, Alien: Earth is a remarkable expansion of the lore; suspenseful, inventive and unforgettable.

Black Rabbit is one of those rare limited series that grips you from the very first scene and refuses to let go. The writing is razor sharp, the pacing is meticulous and the performances are nothing short of magnetic. Jude Law and Jason Bateman bring a gritty depth to their roles, creating a world that feels raw, lived-in and morally complex.
One of the standout touches is the episode introductions, which cleverly pay homage to Ozark. Each episode opens with a sleek, symbolic graphic that foreshadows the themes and events about to unfold. It's subtle yet striking and it adds an extra layer of anticipation before the story even kicks in. For viewers who appreciated Ozark's visual storytelling, this will feel like a respectful nod while still carving out its own identity.
The cinematography leans heavily into shadows and muted palettes, enhancing the tension without ever feeling forced. Meanwhile, the soundtrack complements the mood perfectly, weaving in and out without overshadowing the drama.
Overall, Black Rabbit is dark, deliberate and deeply compelling. It's not just another thriller - it's prestige television done right, with every detail (down to the graphics at the start of each episode) contributing to the atmosphere. If you loved Ozark but want something fresh with its own unique flavour, this is a must-watch.
If you're a film junkie like myself then you'll appreciate the time and effort that Zach Baylin and everyone else put in to make this happen.
