It all started when Netflix France shared a post about the movie Black Adam, showing Henry Cavill as Superman and Dwayne Johnson as the anti-hero, and asked fans who would win in a fight. The post became very popular online, and many fans started a campaign asking Netflix to revive the ‘SnyderVerse’ if they were to buy the rights to DC films.
Paul Verhoeven’s 1997 film is a violent and darkly humorous take on the ‘bug’ movie genre, packed with his signature style. However, it was largely misunderstood, with many failing to recognize its sharp satire of fascism and powerful critique of military power. Some viewers mistakenly thought the film supported the very ideas it was criticizing, while others struggled with its combination of outrageous, over-the-top action and a surprisingly serious underlying message.
While Lazarus is generally engaging, it doesn’t quite stick the landing with every plot point. With so many cliffhangers and twists throughout the six episodes, it was inevitable that some wouldn’t fully work. A weaker twist earlier in the series might have gone unnoticed amidst all the secrets being revealed, and there are plenty of those. However, the two biggest reveals happen at the very end, as you’d expect in a finale. For the final reveal to have a real impact, the first one feels underwhelming, like a disappointing attempt at building suspense. This weakens the show’s overall mystery and its exploration of whether a supernatural presence is truly physical.
Still grieving his father’s death, Laz starts communicating with the spirits of his father’s former patients, hoping to understand what happened. However, the series ultimately suggests that these conversations weren’t supernatural at all. Laz had actually been listening to recordings of his father’s therapy sessions while struggling with his own mental health. While anything is possible, the show implies there were no actual ghosts. This ambiguity is intentional, leaving some questions unanswered and allowing viewers to draw their own conclusions about what happens next.

As a critic, I’ve seen a lot of sitcoms, but The Office really stands out. It’s set in the wonderfully mundane world of a paper company in Scranton, Pennsylvania, and centers around the antics of the employees and their often-absurd manager, Michael. Over nine seasons, it became a genuine phenomenon, earning a place among the all-time greats. Critics loved it, audiences adored it, and the awards just kept coming – and deservedly so.
