  • *Snap Snap* Wednesday steals the spotlight in spooky whodunit

    *Snap Snap* Wednesday steals the spotlight in spooky whodunit

    Wednesday, another massive, viral hit for Netflix, owes its success largely to the charismatic Jenna Ortega says Streaming Wars host Colin Chisholm. Completely embodying the role in every way.

    Is the story particularly ground-breaking or intellectually challenging? Not really, but it doesn’t have to be. It should be interesting to see what else Netflix does with these storied characters and franchise.

    Peeling Back The Layers On Glass Onion

    Knives Out was a massive hit in 2019, could Netflix’s follow-up Glass Onion capture that same magic? Almost, Streaming Wars host Colin Chisholm says.

    With Daniel Craig returning as wonderfully campy Benoit Blanc for a new murder to solve, Glass Onion offers a more bombastic, in-your-face mystery that manages to maintain its biting cleverness.

  • HBO’s White Lotus A Supremely Satisfying Trip

    HBO’s White Lotus A Supremely Satisfying Trip
    Feb 1 2023
    Streaming Wars host Colin Chisholm has finally broken down and watched White Lotus on Crave after many repeated suggestions from readers and friends. He’s glad he did. Both seasons in record time, in fact.

    The highly addictive, soapy satire is both a wonderful critique and a guilty pleasure in one incredible package. Mike White’s sharp writing and direction bring the vision into laser focus and Jennifer Coolidge provides a career-best.
