Tribeca Film Festival 2019 Review: AMERICAN WOMAN

While it’s plot is relatively flimsy, American Woman thrives on the basis of its powerful performances, particularly those from Hong Chau and Sarah Gadon.

SHADOWHUNTERS: “The Beast Within” (S3E18): Dark Clary Rises
SHADOWHUNTERS: “The Beast Within” (S3E18): Dark Clary Rises

While there may not be enough time to deliver a satisfying ending, the epic conclusion we’ve been waiting for could be on the horizon.

AMERICAN GODS: "Donar the Great" (S2E6): The Mighty Thor
AMERICAN GODS (S2E6) “Donar the Great”: The Mighty Thor

If American Gods can pull together a few more character driven episodes like this for the final three episodes of the season, they can guarantee me back for season 3.

RED JOAN: A Political Thriller with No Interest in Politics
RED JOAN: A Political Thriller With No Interest In Politics

Red Joan is suffocatingly mediocre, a political thriller with no interest in the politics of the story, or anything remotely thrilling.

SHADOWHUNTERS: "Heavenly Fire" (S3E17): This is How You Go Out With A Bang
SHADOWHUNTERS (S3E17) “Heavenly Fire”: This is How You Go Out With A Bang

If you are going to go out with a bang, this is the way that you do it, as Shadowhunters has found its rhythm, and dug it’s heels in deep, refusing to go out with a whimper.

AMERICAN GODS: "The Ways Of The Dead": (S2E5) I'll Come Running
AMERICAN GODS (S2E5) “The Ways Of The Dead”: I’ll Come Running

With how scattered and spotty the show has been this season, American Gods wants to say something important, and I hope it finds what it truly wants to say soon.

SHADOWHUNTERS: "Stay With Me" (S3E16): Proposals in Multiple Forms
SHADOWHUNTERS “Stay With Me” (S3E16): Proposals In Multiple Forms

There are so many avenues of Shadowhunters to close up before the end of the series, yet each seam is sewing up rather nicely as we make our way to the end.

AMERICAN GODS: "The Greatest Story Ever Told" (S2E4): One Step Forward, Two Steps Back
AMERICAN GODS “The Greatest Story Ever Told” (S2E4): One Step Forward, Two Steps Back

There’s a lot of set up, a lot of TV show, and little payoff going on in American Gods – and it’s starting to wear on me.

AMERICAN GODS: "Muninn" (S2E3): Keep Searching Or Give Up
AMERICAN GODS: “Muninn” (S2E3): Keep Searching Or Give Up

While episode 2 nearly gave us whiplash, “Muninn” feels like a more controlled look at the different characters in the vast expanse of this universe.

TRANSIT: A Masterful Meditation On Life, Death & Limbo
TRANSIT: A Masterful Meditation On Life, Death & Limbo

Transit cements Christian Petzold’s status as a modern storytelling master. A film of surreal, sad beauty, it should not be missed.

OUT OF BLUE: An Ambitious but unfocused existential crime thriller
OUT OF BLUE: An Ambitious But Unfocused Existential Crime Thriller

Out of Blue can’t be faulted for its ambitions, but there’s a lack of focus, oscillating wildly between genres and never satisfying as any.

AMERICAN GODS: "The Beguiling Man" (S2E2): Two By Two
AMERICAN GODS: “The Beguiling Man” (S2E2): Two By Two

After last Sunday’s ending to American Gods, we were ready to get some answers on what happened to Shadow.

SHADOWHUNTERS:"Beati Bellicosi" (S3E13): Moving In For The Checkmate
SHADOWHUNTERS:”Beati Bellicosi” (S3E13): Moving In For The Checkmate

While there was not much progression in the narrative in Shadowhunters’ “Beati Bellicosi”, there were epic pieces put into play.

AMERICAN GODS: "The House on the Rock" (S2E1): Avengers, Assemble!
AMERICAN GODS: “The House On The Rock” (S2E1): Avengers, Assemble!

After a 2 year hiatus, American Gods returns to form bring back element sof the show viewers fell in love with as well as giving room for others to shine.

SHADOWHUNTERS: "Original Sin" (S3E12): Tying Up Loose Ends As The Final Battle Looms
SHADOWHUNTERS: “Original Sin” (S3E12): Tying Up Loose Ends As The Final Battle Looms

While it’s an indication that the final episode is drawing closer, the end is nigh for Shadowhunters, and it was never as apparent as in “Original Sin”.
