The Sandman: Episode 3 "Dream a Little Dream of Me" Review  Warning : The article contains spoilers.  Johanna and Morpheus sitting on a tree k-i-s-s-i-n-g. If we were kids we would be singing this tune, because if there's one thing this episode has in plenty, then it's the sizzling chemistry between the two.  Jenna Coleman and Tom Sturridge do a great job of conveying the desire the two characters feel. Also, it makes sense that the two are attracted towards each other. After all, both of them love trench coats and believe that it's dangerous for anyone to get close to them.  In Johanna's case it is true, since we see her ex-Rachel wasting away because our Constantine accidentally left the pouch of Sand with her. Poor Rachel is pulled into a beautiful dream as she pines over Johanna without eating or drinking. By the time our duo get to her, there's nothing they can do except ensure that she passes away painlessly in her sleep. Maybe this serves as a less...

The Sandman Episode 2 "Imperfect Hosts" Review Warning : The below review contains spoilers Episode 2 picks up right where we left off last time. Lord Morpheus wants to recreate his kingdom, but he currently doesn't possess the power to accomplish that.

But he knows that there's a way to know their whereabouts- with the help of The Fates.  But it isn't an easy job, as Lucienne kindly explains to the viewers. The Fates require an offering, and Morpheus doesn't have anything to give them. So he hatches a plan.  He plans to get a little of his power back by absorbing something he created and then getting the offerings. This turns out to be Gregory the gargoyle.  In ...

The Sandman- Episode 1 "Sleep Of The Just" Review  Note : The following review contains spoilers   While scrolling through Twitter for reactions to the show, I stumbled across a curious comparison by viewers. There were a couple of viral tweets comparing the similarities between Tom Sturridge's Sandman and Robert Pattinson's Edward Cullen from the Twilight Saga.  The comparisons are understandable. Sturridge's Sandman is emo, talks in a deep voice, and looks like he will fit perfectly in the Twilight world. But thankfully, he won't have to bear that torture because Sandman offers better character writing and world building for Sturridge.    The opening shots of the episode take us to a realm guarded with huge walls and doors, the Land of the Dreaming. We get a glimpse of his palace and himself in a dark coat, as he gets ready to bring a wayward nightmare home.   The first episode does a great job of establishing the main character, conflict, and the world w...
