THE SCHOOL FOR GOOD AND EVIL MOVIE REVIEW
You’ve heard of Hogwarts and U.A. the school for superheroes but have you ever heard of a school for myths, legends and fairy tales? Well, yeah, there’s Regal Academy and Ever After High to name a few. Apparently it’s a whole sub-genre of young adult entertainment. Anyways, The School for Good and Evil is Netflix’s magical attempt to get a piece of that genre starring two young charismatic leads, Sophia Anne Caruso as Sophie and Sofia Wylie as Agatha. Sophie has her head in the clouds and her heart set on living in a beautiful castle with a magnificent bae under the a crown of peace and prosperity and Agatha is her best friend who is shunned and mocked by the other townspeople for being a witch. They are spirited away into the school that separates good and evil in order to maintain a perfect balance in the world. Bradly, Harmoni, and Dogget hold a parent teacher conference and assess the success of this particular genre amongst the youth, grade the A-list cameo’s such as Kerri Washington, Rachel Bloom, Laurence Fishburne, and Charlize Theron, then conclude with an analytical discussion on racism.

YOUR REVIEWERS
Bradly Martin (Screener Squad, Eye on the Prize, Breakfast Pub)
Bradly Martin was born in the united states and grew up on a healthy diet of sports, films, and books. A rather shy lad who kept to himself, Bradly soon discovered the best way to know a person was to know what people liked. Throughout the years Bradly became a fan of many things and a fanatic of none. From Doctor Dre, to Doctor Strange and the who’s who of Whos. From Playstation to the Dreamcast and Marvel to DC. From LeBron James to James Bond and Lord of the Rings to Lord Palmerston (or Pitt the Elder if you agree with Wade Boggs) and is a huge fan of dad jokes and randomly obscure Simpsons references. Armed with a vast knowledge of comics, films, and pop culture. Bradly traveled the world making friends and sharing takes. As a young man Bradly married the love of his life young and grew older every year with each new child brought into the brood. If trends continue, Scientists predict that .2% of Canada (where Bradly and family reside) will be populated by Bradly’s children by the year 2029. You can hear him leading and listening to his favorite critics on the Screener Squad and Eye on the prize and maybe even provide some comments of his own.
Harmoni Anderson (Screener Squad, Highly Suspect Reviews, Unstabletop Gaming)
Harmoni is a mermaid-haired, millennial, rum drinking, Section 31, Slytherin (who’s divorced J.K. Rowling) preschool/nursery teacher and multi genre geek who also loves all things film, tv, fashion, makeup, and an embarrassingly huge BTS stan. Like really embarrassing. As in, mention them and then sit back and watch the insanity. Harmoni likes being able to game and talk movies/TV with people that aren’t 3 feet tall or all that demanding of her. Plus she can curse at us and not get fired….so bonus!
Danny Dogget (Screener Squad)
Hey persons, it’s your favorite canine Dogget! As many of you know, I don’t identify as a critic as much as a classy shock jock. That being said, I do my best to give all of you a well-balanced review filled with my true opinions and hopefully a few laughs. You can occasionally find me on other persons podcast like Mission Impodible (that’ll be 10 dollars Nathan). For the most part, you can find me doing reviews on Oneofus.net.
