In this first part of Fantasy Science, our resident physicist Radha Pyari Sandhir explains wormholes and discusses how they are portrayed in film, and explains what the real life science behind them is.
The Cloverfield Paradox is helped along through a clever use of viral marketing, but it’s not enough to save an otherwise generic and messy sci-fi thriller.
If you are looking for the best film of the saga, Star Wars: The Last Jedi is not the film you are looking for.
