Take a look at our review of Superman, James Gunn’s much talked about reboot of the DC Universe. We break down the mixed reactions, the wild and sometimes messy plot, and how the film puts a new spin on the Man of Steel.

The movie opens with a bold choice as Superman faces an early defeat. It introduces a wave of DC characters, some familiar and others pulled from deep corners of the comics. The big question is whether Gunn captures the heart of Superman or delivers something more chaotic than cohesive.

David Corenswet’s performance gets plenty of attention, especially in comparison to Henry Cavill. Mr. Terrific unexpectedly plays a major role, and the film skips the usual origin story format entirely. There is also the odd inclusion of the Hammer of Bovia and a surprise appearance by Ultraman, which both puzzle and intrigue.

Lex Luthor’s portrayal adds more to unpack, along with a noticeable shift in Superman’s arc. The story leans into themes like nature versus nurture and the public’s fear of aliens, setting the stage for an uncertain but interesting future for the DC Universe.

So is Superman worth the trip to the cinema, or should you wait until it hits streaming? We weigh up both sides.

We take a proper look at Doctor Who’s sixth episode, which has sparked plenty of debate. There’s a lot to unpack. Some strong moments, but also a few frustrating missteps. We talk through the clumsy attempt at a capitalism allegory that doesn’t really land, and why Ryland actually worked well in a smaller role.

The Doctor’s emotional shifts are front and centre. At times they hit hard, at others they feel a bit off. Then there’s the surprise return of Susan, which opens up a whole new set of questions. The ending doesn’t offer many answers, especially with the return of the Rani and the growing mystery around b--generation.

We also get into the latest ratings, Ncuti Gatwa’s absence from Eurovision (with only a vague explanation), and the rumours swirling around the show’s future. Is a break coming? Who might take over next? We talk through the names being floated, the pros and cons, and try to make sense of the timeline which is starting to feel a bit all over the place.

As always, it’s a mix of good, bad, and everything in between. Some laughs, some frustration, and plenty of questions about what’s coming next.
