Knives Out is the new Daniel Craig black comedy-thriller, and it’s delighted both Steve and Simon, who also have a few thoughts about where the first official trailer for what’s likely to be Craig’s last Bond outing, No Time To…
A good indication of how well a concert is going is how much the folk on the stage are enjoying themselves. By that benchmark, Carly Rae Jepsen’s show at Auckland’s Town Hall last night was one of the best of…
Steve won the toss this week, and scored the one ticket Crave! got to see U2. Turns out, it was quite a score—a very enjoyable concert with a bonus beforehand. Simon and Steve have both enjoyed Jojo Rabbit enormously—who’d have…
