So good. Top-notch Hollywood action of the highest caliber. I love everything about this movie, from Henry Cavill’s bicep-reloading and mustache to the final act helicopter chase to the way the movie gives some space for Ethan Hunt’s guilt over his “failed” marriage. Suffice to say, I can’t wait to see Dead Reckoning Part One next year.
My Cultural Diet
We loved this delightfully bizarre series on Apple TV+. Filled with surreal humor, mysteries, and pointed jabs at American pop culture, and blessed with immaculate production design. Can’t wait for season two.
Funny, trippy, wildly creative, and over-the-top in every way possible, but also surprisingly emotional at times.
Direct-to-video martial arts action comedies from the mid-to-late ’90s don’t get much better than this.
One of our favorite Omaha museums. The train exhibits are endlessly fascinating (and make me want to ride the rails) and they currently have an excellent Nelson Mandela exhibit.
Very enjoyable nature documentary series on Disney+. Stunning footage + Will Smith’s humor and charisma = A winning combination. I also wrote about it for Christ and Pop Culture.
I loved everything about this old school-feeling RPG, from the lush pixel art and diverse, fantastical setting to the emotional storyline.
Reading this, I can’t help but hear the actors’ voices from the TV series. They really did a marvelous job capturing the spirit of this book.
