Batwoman (2019) s01e04 – Who Are You?
The Stop Button Posted by on Oct 30, 2019
I didn’t pay enough attention during the opening so I didn’t realize Rachel Matthews’s Magpie was going to have the stupid neon wig. Magpie’s the villain from John Byrne’s Batman and Superman team-up issue of Man of Steel. “Batwoman” could score some major points if Magpie was awesome. read more
Supergirl (2015) s05e02 – Stranger Beside Me
The Stop Button Posted by on Oct 30, 2019
This episode ought to be called “The One With All the Whining.” First, there’s still Lena (Katie McGrath) whining—entirely to her super-Echo—about how Kara never told her the Supergirl thing. McGrath’s new plan is to pretend everything’s cool and exploit Supergirl’s friendship. Of course read more
Supergirl (2015) s05e03 – Blurred Lines
The Stop Button Posted by on Oct 30, 2019
Carl Lumbly shows up in this episode and you almost remember when you liked the stuff with J’onn (David Harewood). Barely. Lumbly’s voice brings back that warm feeling, so long missing on the show. And he’s got to be there because this episode’s all about Harewood finding out why he doesn’t read more
Planetes, Volume 01 (2003)
The Stop Button Posted by on Oct 30, 2019
The first volume of Planetes has five different stories. They’re vignettes. I’ve read this volume before, I remembered the vignettes. Even if the first story doesn’t feel much like a vignette. The story opens with a spaceship disaster. Actually it opens with a cute married couple and then the read more
Biloxi Blues (1988, Mike Nichols)
The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on Oct 29, 2019
Biloxi Blues has some rather peculiar, rather significant third act problems. Like, it doesn’t have a third act. Did they cut a bunch to keep the PG rating or something? Because at a certain point the rising action stalls out and the film goes into montage summary overdrive. After giving lead Matth read more

Tarzan’s Greatest Adventure (1959, John Guillermin)
The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on Oct 27, 2019
Tarzan’s Greatest Adventure is a fairly solid action thriller. Tarzan (genial, musclebound Gordon Scott) is hunting nemesis Anthony Quayle through the jungle. The movie opens with Quayle and his crew robbing an African settlement. They’re after the dynamite but they end up killing a couple people. read more
Evil (2019) s01e03 – 3 Stars
The Stop Button Posted by on Oct 27, 2019
If it never does anything else, “Evil” was probably worth it just for this John Glover performance. It’s John Glover as a brilliant theatre director who’s a tad eccentric and has gotten to be mean in addition to it. Dascha Polanco (from “Russian Doll”) is the one who brings them the case; read more

A Tattered Web (1971, Paul Wendkos)
The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on Oct 25, 2019
For its sub-genre of TV movie, A Tattered Web is pretty great. It’s a dirty cop story, only the dirty cop—Lloyd Bridges—is only a dirty cop because he’s trying to protect himself from a murder change and he’s only trying to protect himself from a murder charge so he doesn’t upset his daughter read more

Evil (2019) s01e02 – 177 Minutes
The Stop Button Posted by on Oct 25, 2019
“Evil” doubles down on the debunking of magic this episode. This time it’s about a miracle, not a possession. The heroes are looking into a girl being pronounced dead then coming back to life after a priest whispers to her. Dakin Matthews plays the priest. It’s a small part but it’s nice to read more
