The first episode with the series' Julia Pennyworth. Casting Christina Wolfe was a classic whitewashing drama because in the comics she's the dark-skinned daughter of Batman's butler Alfred and Mademoiselle Marie (but only since 2014). Originally, everyone was white, and Julia started as Julia Remarque, whose…

A film that offers some impressive moments, but as a whole it mostly skims the surface. It deals with a few key themes, but it is mostly too thesis-like and one-dimensional. A raging America where we get no introduction and a miserable, rushed conclusion. Jesse Plemons steals for himself what is undoubtedly the film's…

It’s too colourful, too CGI-laden, and Jennifer Lopez runs around with her big ass at the beginning and admits in one of the dialogues that she has wrinkles and covers her grey hair because nobody gets younger, and for that she gets my nod because her Botox colleagues in the industry probably see it differently. You…

The 61st Disney feature film is a modern blend of classic adventure stories from the Earth's core. The family dynamics are reminiscent of Indiana Jones, but one can practically recall anything from Verne's works to Narnia or Pellucidar. In the context of Disney films, the theme continues from Atlantis: The Lost Empire…

Extremadamente delicada, tranquila y lenta, es una película con un alma pura y melancólica. Comienza como un retrato de la Mumbai abarrotada y lluviosa, con una visión de la vida de dos amigas en ella, y luego se traslada a un lugar más tranquilo. El debut en ficción de una documentalista experimentada recuerda con…

For Waters’ guileless admission “I know a lot of perverts...”, I would gladly give this film a full five-star rating, but its objective shortcomings, such as its lack of objectivity, won’t allow me to do that. If you want to prove at any cost that the MPAA is a non-transparent organisation in which a group of…

Hopelessness deepened with extraordinary sadism (where Sláma pokes around). Thanks to Vladimír Smutný’s cinematography, the ruination shrouding Flower Buds has an almost apocalyptic quality in places (the scene with the headless angel). There is nothing good and everything can only get worse, which is also true for…

Especially Scorsese, Bogdanovich and Schrader (i.e. the filmmakers who are probably the most well versed in the film sciences) engagingly explain what it means to be a “maverick” in relation to film, which directors working in the United States deserve that designation and why their work is worthy of notice. There is…

The concern that Bird, who undoubtedly has a liking for technology, would bury the franchise that Abrams jump-started under a pile of modern gadgets was unfounded. High-tech gadgets are the last thing that the participants in this experiential journey to the roots of the franchise can rely on, though they encourage…

Remember the likable girl who dumped Mark Zuckerberg at the beginning of The Social Network? Try to imagine her with a lot of piercings, a mohawk and t-shirt emblazoned with FUCK YOU YOU FUCKING FUCKER on her thin, pale body. Love her or hate her, she doesn’t know how to be any other way. Lisbeth Salander. Though the…
