The Upon Further Review

As we conclude the two-part episode of the origin of Apocalypse, we see Magneto convince his frenemy Charles to go along with his goofy plan of tricking En Sabah Nur to find a way home. Of course this doesn’t work, and the ramifications of Charles withholding information comes back to bite them in the butt. Kang reveals himself in the funniest way, while Magneto tries to correct his wrongs. Please...

The drama filled, timeline breaking X-Men are back and trying to get back to 1997. Between hanging out with En Sabah-Nur, dodging Apocalypse, and hunting down Four Horsemen, our X gang is dispersed throughout time trying to make everything go back to normal. Are you excited about potentially having two major villains confronting each other and the X-Men by the end of the season. Please! Subscribe...

Precarious situations are leading to long-lasting reverberations, after RHAENYRA’s horrific first day as queen of the Seven Kingdoms. Bastards want legitimacy, rats are being served, nobles are mad, and the smallfolk actually get a win. What was your favorite part of this episode that was shady dealings and political machinations?

House of the Dragon has put their star player off the bench and Daemon is fully activated! In episode two of season three, we are dealing with the aftermath of the “victory” at the gullet, Rhaenyra is rightfully grieving, the Velaryon kids have to find their patriarch, Aemond takes off to see Harrenhal, there are a bunch of Kings Landing shenanigans, and the Iron Throne is in team Black’s sight. I...

House of the Dragon is back on HBO and we get back into the action very quickly! We get the biggest naval battle in the history of Westeros, a sheep stealing dragon, hardheaded nobles, Aemond being a weirdo, Daemon slicing and dicing, Corlys trying to be a dad to his “son,” Alicent reminding us that she’s the worst mom ever, and absolute Game of Thrones carnage that was very absent from season two...

Disclosure Day, by one of our greatest directors Steven Spielberg, is a conspiracy thriller masquerading as a sci-film flick. The point of the film has not escaped us, but we definitely talk about some its glaring issues, things we loved, and laugh at some things that are probably not meant to be funny. If you saw Disclosure Day, let us know in comments how you felt about it. Please! Subscribe whe...

We were blessed to have Questlove produce an excellent documentary about the band that has had the most influence on our lives: Earth, Wind, & Fire. Even though we highlight all of the band members, it’s really a documentary that focuses on Maurice, the visionary and founder of EWF. This is one of the more honest, open, heartfelt, and interesting musical documentaries made to date. With secret...

Masters of the Universe (2026) drops in a jam packed summer movie season as the nostalgia cartoon remake that might be a few years too late. However, it actually is a painstakingly faithful to the source material iteration, that’s tastefully modernized in a way that isn’t disrespectful to its OG fans. Let us know in the comments if you enjoyed Skeletor as much as we did😭 Please! Subscribe where w...

Spider-Noir on Amazon Prime is a take on the black and white Spider-Man from the comics and is played by Nicolas Cage, who also played a version of this character from Spider-Man: Across the Spiderverse. This post WW1/prohibition/Great Depression era world sees Ben Reilly, a retired Spider-Man who has to find a new reason to be a hero, since the normal Spidey tragedy happens to him. This is a fair...

The Boys finally reaches its climactic conclusion, as Butcher and the gang face Homelander head on. All of our heroes and villains get sent off in many different directions and narratively the show rather plainly tells you exactly what it’s trying to say. In the comments, tell us your favorite moment from the final season of The Boys. IG: theuponfurtherreview FB: The Upon Further Review TikTok: th...

The Punisher: One Last Kill is the epitome of a one shot. This twisted, blood filled, jam packed with aggression 45 minutes of MCU for adults, puts Frank Castle and his entire neighborhood at risk and he has to John Wick his way out of there. He deals with his demons and the one last kill he should have taken. In the comments, let us know if you think this will lead to some more Punisher or was it...

In the season two finale of Daredevil: Born Again season two, Matt finds himself fighting Fisk in court and he has to make a decision that could cost him dearly. Bullseye might be the MVP of the season, while Heather’s descent into the madness that is Muse feels under explored. We got some cool cameos at the end and some definitive set up for season three, which is already in production. In the co...

Season four of Invincible on Amazon Prime seems to be a return to form, because Thragg, Lucan, Kregg and the rest of the Viltrumites are showing us why they are the superiors of the universe. Mark gets disemboweled, Conquest comes back from the dead, Nolan is on his apology tour, Alan is still unserious, but most importantly, Thragg is the ABSOLUTE TRUTH!!!!! With season five already dropping next...

Guess who’s back!?!?! Matt Murdock makes a dramatic entrance into court for his girl Karen, because they didn’t leave on the best of terms. Heather and Fisk have a chat about the item she swiped. Jessica and Mr. Charlie have a quick chat too and we get a Luke Cage reference. Daniel makes a choice that doesn’t end well for him, but it does for BB. IG: theuponfurtherreview FB: The Upon Further Revie...

As we are being led to an explosive finale, Maul finds himself having to let the hate flow through him to survive, Daki is still trying to rely on the kindness of strangers, and papa Lawson is dead set on finding his son. Devon is still having dark side flirtations, the inquisitors jump Maul, and Sul may be the realest character on this show. Please! Subscribe where we are, especially here on YouT...

The entire crew saw Michael and we definitely are high on nostalgia. From kid MJ to MJ breaking away from his family, Michael is a music heavy biopic that tries to humanize the once larger than life entertainer. Jaafar Jackson channels Michael and gives an amazing performance of older Mike in his first acting role ever. Colman Domingo plays a menacing Joe Jackson and Nia Long as the comforting Cat...

Dealing with the ramification’s of Vanessa’s death, Fisk is quickly descending into full blown rage. Daniel is having the worst birthday ever, as BB finally starts to understand she’s playing with fire. Buck gives Heather some “therapy,” and the CIA is making multiple moves in the background to deal with Fisk’s betrayal. Karen turns into shooter and Daredevil really doesn’t want to fight with anyo...

In the best episode of Daredevil: Born Again to date, we get full circle moments from many of our characters. Daredevil and Bullseye have a long conversation, Daniel and Buck take a nerve-recking road trip, Vanessa and Wilson reminisce, and BB is still moving real stupid and sloppy. Let us know in the comments if you agree if this is the best episode yet. Please! Subscribe where we are, especially...

Another dual set of banger episodes, as Daki and Devon find themselves on the run from our favorite (maybe not alive) Inquisitor, Marrok. The Lawson’s probably have the worst day of their lives, seeing how father and son are fully thrusted into the fight with the Empire. Do you think Maul did enough to convince Devon to be his new apprentice? Be sure to leave us your answer in the comments! Please...

Maul is doing very Sith-like things in episodes 3 and 4 of Maul: Shadow Lord. He’s still trying to make an apprentice Devon, while Daki wants to save his padawan. Lawson is kind of a deadbeat dad and his droid Two Boots is a snitch. Vario is the ultimate setup person, as the Pikes don’t know he is a literal Trojan horse. Janix gets the unfortunate arrival of the galaxy’s “peacekeepers” and all hel...

In the best episode of the season as of yet, Daredevil: Born Again is taking the gloves off as Bullseye gets his target practice on and he is relentless! Everyone is starting to get sick of Fisk, Mr. Charles included. Vanessa isn’t a good listener, Sheila still making faces, BB is getting sloppier, and Matt finally shows up at a church (for info, no recompense). Please! Subscribe where we are, esp...

Maul is back and he’s doing what he does best: getting revenge on his enemies. We’re on the planet Janix and the criminal underworld is moving heavy work. Maul is moving like a methodical, thoughtful Sith as he tries to draw out his enemies. We also have a Jedi and Padawan that are vagabonds living in squalor, Maul feels he can take advantage of a young mind to further his exploits. This gritty an...
