Big Little Lies season two didn’t do enough to justice its existence
July 23, 2019 by 1 Comment
When it was announced that Big Little Lies was coming back for a season two, I criticised the idea on Metro.co.uk, saying it was only meant to be one series, as the action covered all of Liane Moriarty‘s book, and there was no real reason for a continued storyline, except for that little detective tease at the very end. I loved the first season and didn’t want a rushed, half-arsed follow-up to ruin it – and that’s generally what we got.

Sing is the perfect combo of many things I love – pop music, The X Factor-style singing competition, Taron Egerton and animated movies – so it was pretty much a given I was gonna love it and I sure did!
Hot Pursuit: Film Review

Hot Pursuit has been out in the U.S. for aaages and it is finally released in the U.K. this week and while its standard comedy fare and not particularly noteworthy, it is still pretty good if you want some easy laughs.
