Sometimes coming up with an article topic or weekly review becomes a difficult process. I watched the Tom Cruise sequel “Jack Reacher: Never Go Back” with the full intention of reviewing it, but here is the short version: It's a mediocre action movie only for fans of either Tom Cruise or the Jack Reacher novel series (2 and ½ out of 5 stars). I also wanted to review the newly released third season of the Netflix sci-fi anthology series of “Black Mirror” which focuses on stories about how technology could make our world a living nightmare. Here's my quick assessment on that: Ep. 1 “Nosedive”, Ep. 3 “Shut Up and Dance” and Ep. 6 “Hated in the Nation” were brilliantly frightening while the other three episodes were derivative misfires... although Ep. 5 “Men Against Fire” showed potential in concept.
Instead of going in depth with either of these items, I need to address the event on Sunday which has caused a frenzy of heated discussion on the internet. “The Walking Dead” ended its previous season with one of the most infuriating cliffhangers imaginable...
