Nicky is a pastor who keeps his homosexuality hidden. His life takes a turn when his sister, Morgan, steals a diamond necklace, thereby entangling them with the criminal underworld. If it has been a while since you last enjoyed a good comedy, *Big Mistakes* offers a very welcome change of pace. The plot follows the story of Nicky, a closeted pastor whose life descends into absolute chaos when his sister Morgan—impulsive by nature—ends up stealing a diamond necklace linked to organized crime. These events drag the siblings into the criminal underworld—a world from which even they don't know how to escape. Although they try to set things right, their troubles seem endless. Creators: Dan Levy, Rachel Sennott Stars: Taylor Ortega, Dan Levy, Laurie Metcalf While the narrative bears some resemblance to titles like *Fargo* and *Only Murders in the Building*, *Big Mistakes* manages to carve out its own niche thanks to its humor and performances. Dan Levy, in the role of Nicky, portrays a c...

 *Bandi* is a 2026 French crime drama series, available for streaming on Netflix and set entirely on the Caribbean island of Martinique—a French overseas territory. This eight-episode series follows the lives of Kylian Lafleur and his ten siblings, who face one extreme hardship after another following the accidental death of their beloved and protective mother; all this unfolds amidst a shifting dynamic on the streets of Martinique, marked by a surge in drug-related violence. While *Bandi* unfortunately does not truly explore the essence of Martinique or the lives of its islanders in any profound sense, its intense and gritty plot is enough to impress fans of the action genre and leave them eagerly awaiting a second season. *Bandi* opens on an apparently ordinary night in the French territory of Martinique, in the Antilles, where three young men wait and keep watch over a specific commercial establishment from a distance. However, when the shopkeeper lowers the shutters and leaves,...

 *Thrash* is, basically, a cross between *Crawl* and *Jaws* that is suffering from an identity crisis. Look: if you’re going to make a shark movie, I am contractually (well, not literally) obligated to mention Steven Spielberg’s classic, because it is simply excellent. It’s dramatic, it has political undertones, it showcases some of the finest filmmaking techniques your eyes have ever beheld, the performances are fantastic, and it features a shark that malfunctioned so often that it forced the film crew to shift their approach to building suspense—thereby turning it into one of the most harrowing films of all time. Many films—including its own sequels—that came afterward tried to emulate its success and failed. Hence, they had to resort to mutated, CGI-generated animals to achieve their objective. Although I occasionally enjoy films like *Under Paris* or *The Meg*, I yearn for those creature features that go back to basics, maintaining a small scale and high tension. That’s why I e...

 *Trust Me: The False Prophet* is a Netflix true-crime documentary series, released in 2026, that delves into the inner workings of religious exploitation and the mindset that leads women to surrender all autonomy and submit to their leader within polygamous cults. This four-part documentary miniseries chronicles the prolonged efforts of Christine Marie and her husband, Tolga Katas, to uncover incriminating evidence against an FLDS leader—Sam Bateman—all while pretending to be filming a documentary about him. Taken as a whole, the miniseries proves to be a viewing experience as intriguing as it is harrowing, due to the details of the horrific crimes to which Bateman’s victims were subjected. *The False Prophet* opens by introducing the heroes of this story: Christine Marie and her husband, Tolga Katas, who had a very specific mission in mind when they moved to Short Creek—a small town situated on the Utah-Arizona border—back in 2016. Short Creek is a well-known haven for the Fundam...

The first two episodes of *The Testaments* confirmed that Daisy was not merely a "Pearl Girl"; she was on a mission. But the question remained: how had she come into contact with Mayday, and what drove her to take such a risk? And, most importantly: what was her connection to June? Well, the third episode answers most of these questions. We finally learn Daisy’s backstory and discover why, for her, living in Gilead was the only option. She had to feign piety to blend in with the crowd, yet, by all appearances, she loathed the State and everything it stood for. Daisy led a vibrant life: she went to school, had a boyfriend, and loved skateboarding. The great dilemma of her life at that time revolved around whether or not she should come clean to her mother about her boyfriend. But everything changed drastically one fateful night. Daisy’s parents, Neil and Melanie, were kind and loving people. They owned a second-hand clothing store and lived happily in their modest life in Toro...

 Morgan and Karadec have seemed like an inevitable couple right from the very start of the series. However, one is left a bit surprised when the show begins to lean in that direction in Episode 16 of *High Potential*’s second season, titled "Turn Up the Heat." We witness a glimmer of jealousy when Karadec informs Morgan of his plan to move in with Lucia. We know Morgan will interpret it simply as a fear of change, but we know the truth. Later on, the series depicts Lucia feeling somewhat uncomfortable with the close relationship between Morgan and Karadec. Nevertheless, this is not portrayed as jealousy or insecurity. The episode "Turn Up the Heat" later shows these two women conversing about Karadec. Both care for him and wish him the very best. We won't see any petty rivalry over a man; instead, they demonstrate mutual respect and understanding. However, *High Potential* is clearly laying the groundwork for future tension between them because of Karadec. Despi...
