The Sandman season 2 review: a beautifully hollow nightmare of emo pretension

Squid Game season 3 review: death, desperation, and Netflix’s most brutal finale yet
I’ll admit it: when Netflix greenlit Season 2 of Squid Game, I rolled my eyes so hard I nearly dislocated them. Season 1 felt complete in its bleak brilliance—an allegorical punch…
Smoke review: serial arson, haunted cops, and an epic slow-burn thriller
