A relaxing ride for a good mood. Guy Ritchie watched Quentin Tarantino's Inglorious Basterds and thought he could make something cool like that too. Well, it's not that good, but it's fun to watch. A stylish wartime flick with a western score, a great Henry Cavill and Alan Ritchson as the ultimate killing machine; it…

Can it really be so bad in India? The transformation of pure feminine innocence into the only possible form of existence that is not submissive to the laws of the patriarchal jungle. In some poor Indian social classes, family values are not the same as they are with us. And what initially seems tempting to take the…

A procedural analysis of the actions of Eastern European villagers – the family of the injured party, the police and the father of those who are responsible – during the investigation of a crime and the subsequent handling of the facts that are brought to light. Though incomprehensible to the point of absurdity in the…

Icelandic teenagers and a tragic event that they did not anticipate. The modifier “intimate” takes on even greater significance here than is usual. The detailed depiction of the rising fear of losing a loved one and subsequently dealing with the resulting pain. The main character goes through that mostly in secret,…

Atmospheric found footage inferno!!! I didn't think I'd ever be scared to go to the toilet after watching a horror movie, but here I was, like, super uncomfortable. I don't mind ghosts or demons, I don't mind heads and dicks being cut and guts flying around, but I downright hate mannequins and clowns and this combo is…

A typical American chill-out film with a good portion of clichés, which they tried to wrap in a new packaging. Add an annoying Katherine Heigl and a bunch of “hitmen” who really got on my nerves towards the end, and you have Killers. Fortunately, I wasn't expecting much from the film, so I'm not disappointed. One big…

The old familiar tale of two restless neighbours who play pranks on each other and in the end there is supposed to be a lesson. Danny DeVito and Matthew Broderick were less funny than usual, but I'll still give it 2* for the beautiful production design and a couple of bright moments.

After watching Princess Mononoke, Hayao Miyazaki is for me right up there with James Cameron as a directorial god. His spectacular and narrative masterpieces (Spirited Away, Howl’s Moving Castle and Princess Mononoke) are amazing examples of the genius and imagination of a skilled filmmaker. Once again, the director…

Overall, The Sorcerer's Apprentice struck me as a mix of Harry Potter and some teenage sugary stuff. The effects were great and I have absolutely no complaints. Nicolas Cage, Alfred Molina, and Monica Bellucci fit their characters for me, but Jay Baruchel pretty much sucked - as did a lot of others there. In the end,…

I only saw the original two Predators from afar, so this movie was basically a Predator premiere for me. I can't say I didn't like it, but on the other hand, I can't say I was impressed either. The creatures in the film are all very well done, the music was great to enhance the atmosphere, and the actors were mostly…
