 Netflix's new true crime documentary series, Attack on London: The Hunt for the 7/7 Terrorists, takes a detailed look at what is considered the worst terrorist attack in the UK to date. On a seemingly ordinary day in 2005, a series of explosions rocked the London Underground network, followed by a devastating attack on a public bus, as part of a planned terrorist attack that claimed the lives of 52 innocent people. Attack on London delves into the investigation following this horrific attack, questioning whether MI5 could have done a better job of identifying and even preventing the attack, while also investigating similar attacks attempted just a couple of weeks later. Attack on London begins with the account of Dan Biddle, an ordinary Londoner whose life changed completely on July 7, 2005. That fateful morning, around a quarter to nine, Dan was aboard a London Underground train, uncomfortable in the heat and the overcrowded carriage. He recalls having an incredibly unlucky and f...

In this week's episode of the Netflix documentary series, Trainwreck, we delve into the rise and subsequent fall of the American clothing brand American Apparel. Once a steady rise in popularity among young people, this brand is now known as one of the American companies that failed miserably. "The Cult of American Apparel" covers the story of this fall and the horrific accusations against its founder, Dov Charney, making it a very interesting film. While "The Cult of American Apparel" is about the clothing company that revolutionized America at one point, it focuses more on the man at its helm: Dov Charney. The hour-long documentary is designed to tell the story of Dov Charney through the unique account of his first big business venture. Born and raised in Quebec, Canada, Dov Charney had a fairly peaceful childhood, thanks to his origins in a very wealthy Jewish family from a wealthy neighborhood. But he struggled to cope with his parents' divorce from a yo...

One-man films are all the rage, but it's not a new trend. When Westerns were at their peak, there were several stories of a highly trained gunman who had been wronged and was seeking revenge, with actors like Clint Eastwood and John Wayne at the helm. In the 1980s and 1990s, action stars like Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, Bruce Willis, and Jean-Claude Van Damme starred in films about a guy seeking revenge for personal, professional, or nationalistic reasons. And while mainstream cinema shied away from such narratives for a while until Keanu Reeves became John Wick, that trend was kept alive by direct-to-video releases from immensely talented artists like Scott Adkins, Marko Zaror, and Michael Jai White. Recently, familiar faces like Orlando Bloom, Tom Hardy, Jamie Foxx, Eddie Murphy, Ryan Gosling, Chris Evans, and Jennifer Lopez have entered this space and achieved varying degrees of success. Josh Duhamel has been trying to do the same thing for five or six years, and ...

 “Sauna” begins exactly where you might expect. Men writhe and moan in the shadows, out of sight, while a young gay man walks through the darkened room of Adonis, Copenhagen's only gay sauna. It turns out he works there, but he's free to enjoy all the perks his workplace offers. You can't sleep on the job, but sleeping with anyone is fine. Although that position (and the many others he finds himself in) sounds much better than your average office job, Johan isn't satisfied. One meaningless encounter after another has taken its toll on him, reflecting the emptiness so many young gay men face when their social life in a new city consists mostly of sex and very little else. However, the script, co-written by director Mathias Broe, doesn't condemn this. Like the book it's based on (by Danish author Mads Ananda Lodahl), “Sauna” explores this without prejudice, telling a relatable story for anyone familiar with the hypersexual world that can come with frequenting gay ...

 If you take away a few cell phones and gadgets, Heads of State could undoubtedly be a relic of the 1980s. And that is, arguably, its greatest virtue. An old-fashioned oddball buddy movie, seemingly with no ambition other than to be a hilarious diversion, achieves that sweet spot—undemanding yet entertaining—that so many modern action comedies fail to find. At first, one might wonder if they've misjudged their tone. The opening sequence, in which a covert operation to arrest a villain (Paddy Considine) goes fatally awry, feels like a cheap Mission: Impossible. Then there's the somewhat stiff introduction of two feuding world leaders: veteran UK Prime Minister Sam Clarke (Idris Elba), whose declining popularity has made him moody, and newly elected US President Will Derringer (John Cena), a former action star who doesn't see much difference between being a scripted hero and a real one. There's some awkwardness in the early scenes, as Cena's imposing, nonchalant perfo...
