The Gorge is a sci-fi horror romance that AppleTV+ released just in time for Valentine’s Day. I found the trailer really interesting, especially seeing Anya Taylor-Joy and Miles Teller as skilled snipers stationed in towers on either side of a huge, secretive gorge.

FlixChatter Review – Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga (2024) – Miller delivers another thrill ride with jaw-dropping action centered on a brilliantly fiery heroine
