True Detective – ‘Omega Station’ Review

“Hell, son… if everyone was stronger, they’d be more like you.” After the ‘happy’ ending to season 1 of True Detective I always knew with season 2 that Nic Pizzolatto wasn’t going to repeat himself. He hadn’t done so far; season 2 was drastically different to season 1 and the finale followed suit. Not only did most […]

True Detective – ‘Black Maps And Motel Rooms’ Review

“In the midst of being gang banged by forces unseen, I figure I’d drill a new orifice, go on and fuck myself for a change.” Ah poor Vince Vaughn. He took a lot of crap in the beginning of True Detective Season 2 but after the last couple of episodes I don’t think there is anyone […]

True Detective – ‘Church in Ruins’ Review

“That’s one off the bucket list. A Mexican standoff with actual Mexicans.” Only two episodes left! And the plot has really began to pick up pace. Like the last episode a lot of plot details came together in this episode. Ok so maybe it’s a little late for some. But if you’re still here then chances […]

True Detective – ‘Other Lives’ Review

“Pain is inexhaustible. It’s only people who get exhausted.” The biggest casualty from last weeks big shootout was Ray’s moustache. Somewhere in the time skip between the ‘Vinci Massacre’ and this episode, Ray decided to lose the face fuzz. Will we ever know why? Probably not, but we can speculate. Other less important, non-moustache related […]

True Detective – ‘Down Will Come’ Review

“You have one of the largest auras I’ve ever seen. Green and black. It’s been taking up this whole room.” Remember how last episode I said that the last episode would divide the audience? That it would split people down the middle and you’d either keep watching or just flat out stop? Well I think […]

True Detective – ‘Maybe Tomorrow’ Review

“Aw, son, they kill you. They shoot you to pieces.” So yeah, Ray is ok. Well not ok, but certainly alive. This is probably for the best because Ray is so awesome. Losing him so early on would have sucked, so I can forgive Pizzolatto tricking us like that. And it also meant we got […]

True Detective – ‘Night Finds You’ Review

‘The fundamental difference between the sexes is that one of them can kill the other with their bare hands.’ Did that happen? No way could they do that in episode 2, right? Well the answer to that question is probably not. But whatever happens that was an awesome scene, generating so many questions! What exactly was going on in […]

True Detective – ‘The Western Book of The Dead’ Review

‘I used to want to be an astronaut. But astronauts don’t even go to the moon anymore.’ Well True Detective is back and in a completely different form than the last season. Gone are the bayous and long empty roads of back water Louisiana, instead being replaced with the winding highways and David Lynch-esque visuals of Los Angeles. […]
