Faced with corruption on a massive citywide scale – with anyone from the cops, to the mayor, to the commissioner, to city workers and everyone in-between – James Gordon (Ben McKenzie) has been taking the low road at times in […]Read On »

DVD/Digital Release Review: THE INTRUDERS

THE INTRUDERS | © 2015 Sony Pictures Home Entertainment

Rating: PG-13 Stars: Miranda Cosgrove, Donal Logue, Austin Butler, Tom Sizemore, Jenessa Grant, Michael Luckett Writer: Jason Juravic Director: Adam Massey Distributor: Sony Pictures Home Entertainment Release Date: February 24, 2015 The new release THE INTRUDERS, not to be confused with either 2012’s feature INTRUDERS or 2014’s BBC series INTRUDERS, is a fairly generic PG-13 thriller. It’s not a worst-case scenario of the form, by any means, but it steadfastly fails to gain traction as it goes along. College student Rose Halshford (Miranda Cosgrove), on a leave of absence from study, is moved by her architect father Jerry (Donal Logue) […]Read On »

Here, the red hood in question is just a […]Read On »

Dr. Leslie Thompkins (Morena Baccarin) visits James Gordon (Ben McKenzie) at the GCPD in The Scarecrow | © 2015 Jessica Miglio/FOX

Cast: Ben McKenzie, Donal Logue, Jada Pinkett Smith, Robin Lord Taylor, David Mazouz, Camren Bicondova, Erin Richards, Sean Pertwee, Morena Baccarin, John Dorman, Cory Michael Smith, David Zayas Writer: Ken Woodruff Director: Nick Copus Network: Airs on Fox, Mondays @ 9 p.m. Original Telecast: Feb. 9, 2015 All things being said, I was a bit disappointed in the second half of the GOTHAM two-parter that introduced the origin of Scarecrow in the aptly named “The Scarecrow.” Mostly, because it lacked the very person the episode it was supposed to be about. Obviously, maybe he’ll reappear in future episodes and this […]Read On »

Cast: Ben McKenzie, Donal Logue, Jada Pinkett Smith, Robin Lord Taylor, David Mazouz, Camren Bicondova, Erin Richards, Sean Pertwee, Morena Baccarin, John Dorman, Cory Michael Smith, David Zayas Writer: Megan Mostyn-Brown Director: Wendey Stanzler Network: Airs on Fox, Mondays @ 9 p.m. Original Telecast: Feb. 2, 2015 The thing that I am enjoying about GOTHAM is even when we get an episode that is just a bridge to another (possibly more mythology driven) episode, it still does a great job in building the storylines we have seen so far in the season. That’s what we got with “The Fearsome Dr. […]Read On »

The mobster mythology has carried throughout the entire first season so far […]Read On »

Not only does the show do a great job of balancing the “bad guy of the week” with […]Read On »

In Fox’s GOTHAM, Mondays at 8 PM, we are in the DC Comics-originated world of Batman before Batman exists as a superhero. Bruce Wayne (David Mazouz) is still a youth, just beginning to think about how he’d like to fight crime in this corrupt city; James Gordon (Ben McKenzie) is not yet the police commissioner, but possibly the only honest homicide detective on the Gotham police force; Selena Kyle (Camren Bicondova) is a homeless teen who loves cats and is great at climbing, but she’s not yet Catwoman. Of Batman’s eventual foes, only Oswald Cobblepot (Robin Lord Taylor) – who […]Read On »
