5.5/10. Original and bizarre, but also weird and rather boring. Visually the film has quite a TV feel to it, without any bright colours, it's got an arty feel to it, and even though there are five sub-genres tagged, Drama dominates 90% of the time. Sebastian Stan and Adam Pearson both play their parts and the facial…

7/10. Tony Jaa like in the good old days! A simple, but enjoyable martial arts romp that doesn't fool around and serves fans choreographed and fierce fights, just the way we like them. The story is really basic, Tony's family is killed and he intends to take revenge while protecting a little girl, the daughter of one…

Some doors should remain closed, especially if they are red. My sixth encounter with Joko Anwar, I’d already given up on him, but at the urging of a friend I gave this earlier piece of him a chance. Yeah it's full of references, as the synopsis says. During the credits, the Mission: Impossible franchise immediately…

5.5/10. An average French action film, with the director returning after an almost ten-year hiatus, and it's obvious that he slept through the time, because the action really feels like a decade ago, especially in the fights, which lack toughness, intensity and effectiveness. The protagonist played by Roschdy Zem is…

5/10. Quite a disappointment for me. I was expecting a deranged lawyer committing murder and in the meantime diverting from a trial, and I got a sort of comedy gangster drama without trials and murders, something I didn't quite order. With a short running time of 30 minutes per episode, it thankfully goes by fairly…

Ari Aster gave something to this film that most horror films of the present day desperately lack. Atmosphere. Creeping dread, uncomfortable mystery, and something chillingly irrational, much like what was achieved in the recent film The Killing of a Sacred Deer. While the unhinged mom Toni Collette complements the…

Furry Will in a highly unusual role. Slapped by life, thrown out with his things onto the lawn in front of his own house, constantly maintaining a level of alcohol and self-pity. Everything must go, but it’s not all lost yet. The classic "feel good in bad times" with the usual melancholic guitar tones, where Rush…

The list of genres is missing comedy, which I didn't expect. Maybe that's why I enjoyed the film less than The Amazing Mr. X. I definitely don't recommend reading the synopsis here, as it not only gives away almost the entire plot, but also strongly hints at who is behind the murder. The story revolves around the…

In the last three years, twelve prisoners have escaped from Dartmoor Prison, but all have disappeared. Their loved ones have received just one postcard from abroad, often from exotic countries, saying they are OK, but they have not been heard from since. Anthony Nash is looking for an ex-boyfriend who was one of the…

The protagonist is a dimwit who sees his dead sister. I can't help it, but when the most important character is an asshole, I have a hard time enjoying a film. And the final twist and bloody fight from the fantasy realm didn't change that. OK, the carnage is nice at times, it just gets tiresome as it repeats itself…
