Spoilers follow for the first season of "Fallout."
With "Fallout," Prime Video delivered one of the best video game adaptations ever, one that stands up there with the likes of "Arcane," "Cyberpunk: Edgerunners" and "Castlevania."
A big reason for the show's success is that it is not a 1:1 remake like, say, "The Last of Us." Instead, "Fallout" tells an entirely original story with brand new characters. There is some overlap, of course, from slightly similar plots to cheeky references and returning characters from the games, but otherwise, this feels less like replaying your favorite "Fallout" game and more like watching a brand new "Fallout" game play out in front of you.
This allows the TV show to tell a good and thrilling story without the restraints of canon or the games. This is how we get the entire pre-war storyline that gives us an origin for Vault Boy and...

An unsuspecting family on vacation at a remote house encounters cryptic strangers bearing warnings of an impending apocalypse? You'd be forgiven for assuming I'm talking about M. Night Shyamalan's "Knock at the Cabin," but I'm actually referring to another 2023 movie: "Leave the World Behind." Unlike Shyamalan's latest offering, however, this one isn't a home invasion flick so much as a psychological thriller that gives rise to a survival drama. They seem to have similar vibes, though, right down to including a core character who waxes philosophical in a deliberate, solemn fashion about the end of the world.
Dave Bautista is, in that sense, to "Knock at the Cabin" what Mahershala Ali is to "Leave the World Behind." The film centers on a married couple, Amanda (Julia Roberts) and Clay (Ethan Hawke), who are enjoying a weekend getaway with their kids, Archie (Charlie Evans) and Rose (Farrah Mackenzie), when Ali's character,...

Being a teen is hard enough. But try being a teen in two different timelines. That’s the problem Alice is dealing with in The Way Home. The character (played by Sadie Laflamme-Snow in the Hallmark Channel series) has discovered she has the ability to time travel back to the late ‘90s. During her visits to the past, she becomes friends with a teenage version of her mother, Kat (Alex Hook), and also falls for a boy named Nick (Samuel Braun). But Alice also has a life in the present day. And she’s finding it hard to juggle life in her correct timeline with her relationship with Nick in the past. It all comes to a head in the next episode of The Way Home, which airs March 12.

Did you really think Kat would be able to say no to more time in the past?
Ok, so the end of The Way Home Season 1 Episode 7 only shows her before the pond in a moment of hesitation, but there is too much weighing on her from the past to walk away.
And now that they have shared their secret, Kat and Alice can work together if the need to do so arises.
It's been fairly easy to see how Jacob's disappearance tore apart the Landry family and even easier to understand why Kat blamed herself for losing him.
But seeing her crack at the New Year's Eve party was tough, and Kat admitting it in 2023 was tougher. She's never found peace in the wake of Jacob's loss.
I wish just once that my mom and dad could have acknowledged how much I lost that night, acknowledge how much I was hurting,...
