Second Chance: Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace

James Andrews
May 16, 2019
Features, Nostalgia, Second Chance
Two decades on, The Phantom Menace remains the most infamously maligned entry in the ever-expanding Star Wars series. Following the beloved saga's hyped return in 1999 with a monumental and highly marketed...

Why The Dark Tower Deserves a Second Chance

Joni Blyth
February 13, 2019

Second Chance: Johnny English

James Andrews
October 2, 2018

Patrick Taylor
September 12, 2017
Features, Nostalgia, Second Chance
A cursory look through the litany of reviews on its Rotten Tomatoes page will tell you that opinions on Darren Aronofsky's Noah are hardly ambivalent. And it would, admittedly, be wrong to deny that the film...
Jupiter Ascending

How Jupiter Ascending Set a New High Bar for Trashy Sci-Fi

Carmen Paddock
August 1, 2017
Features, Nostalgia, Second Chance
While the Wachowskis have previously found success with films like The Matrix and V for Vendetta (and an arguable, if baffling, masterpiece in Cloud Atlas), Jupiter Ascending garnered lukewarm reviews at best...
Jumper

Jumper: A Mediocre Film With A Great Premise

Naomi Soanes
July 26, 2017
Features, Nostalgia, Second Chance
Doug Liman doesn’t release that many films, so you would hope that each new release would be a beautifully polished diamond of the highest quality. Unfortunately, this doesn’t always appear to be the case....

Second Chance: Man of Steel

Patrick Nabarro
May 31, 2017
Analysis, Features, Second Chance
It’s fair to say that Superman’s outings on the big screen over the years have been to varying degrees of success. Superman (1978) and Superman II (1980) were both, generally speaking, excellent works –...

Hook

Is Hook Really A Bad Steven Spielberg Film?

Louise Burrell
December 11, 2016
Features, Nostalgia, Second Chance
With Steven Spielberg at the helm and a ridiculously strong cast of Robin Williams, Dustin Hoffman, Bob Hoskins, and Julia Roberts, Hook should have been the standout Hollywood success story of 1991. Instead,...
