Drama ● Review: Ahsoka
Moderately enjoyable despite clumsy plotting. Good performances and would be better if the cast is given more to work with.

Anime ● Review: Godzilla Singular Point
Original take. Basically a sci-fi mystery, which is fine in itself except it drags. Serious lack of Godzilla action. Wasted opportunity.

Not intended to be a shoot ’em up but rather a mystery-thriller. Starts off a little trippy but becomes a little too predictable.
