Read MoreLost in Space: Oreo Icebox Cake 🥁 🥁 🥁 1/2
/
Sure, it’s cheesy, a cinematic stew of Han Solo, Indiana Jones, look alike monsters from Jurassic World, bits of Isaac Asimov’s I, Robot, sprinkles of Doogie Howser, M.D., and even MacGyver. But it also affirms Faith, Family, Forgiveness and Redemption without ever explicitly mentioning religion per se. This is Netflix, after all.

Read MoreJuror # 2: Nachos Southern Style 🥁 🥁 🥁 1/2
