Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse (2018)

The latest Spider-Man is a superb movie - a visual triumph supported by an amazing cast of characters, an incredible soundtrack, fantastic art direction and a damn good story to boot. A once-in-a-generation event, the best Spider-Man ever, and possibly the greatest movie of 2018.

Tropenmuseum - colonial fashion and bitter chocolate

A brilliant space full of interesting objects, Tropenmuseum is, quite remarkably, the first entity in an ex colonial country (NL) that manages to come to terms with its dark history in a mature and fair manner. Incredible and well worth a visit.

Sharp Objects (2018)

Sharp Objects is a twisted limited series straight out of the HBO stables. Jean-Marc Vallée's perfect direction and Amy Adams' riveting performance make this one the perfect material for some twisted winter binge watching.
