I enjoyed Eva Green in the corset more, but otherwise I enjoyed everything else less. The first one was better. Still top-notch production values, big-movie ambitions and the right dynamics and visuals, but the second part doesn't stand out in any significant way and only serves as a necessary bridge for the finale.…

A swashbuckling, raucous and modern adaptation of Dumas' classic. More emphasis is placed on the action scenes, which are gritty, dynamic, and with great choreography. There have been so many versions of “The Three Musketeers” that I'm not even sure how it was supposed to be done, but the snipers in the church is a…

I once suffered through Rose Glass' Saint Maud, but I was looking forward to this one thanks to the stylish trailer. It's okay and I'm very much between 3 and 4 stars, but I'm going to be stricter in the end because the plot is pretty straightforward with no significant changes throughout, and Kristen Stewart is not a…

Sébastien Vaniček and his instant ticket to the A-Horror League. I'm gonna go give out prizes, because this is where history is made. So Vaniček made a dream debut (right on the lines of the recent successful debutants like Robert Eggers, Jordan Peele, Ari Aster, Zach Cregger), the best spider horror film of all time …

About the same as the first part. The battle is maybe a bit better, because we have lightsabers in a bigger extent. The script is a big mess. The idea is there, but Zack Snyder can hold it with all the weird dialogue and nonsensical behavior of the checkerboard pieces. I want to see the uncensored version to see if…

I liked the trailer quite a bit, the foreign reviews were pretty discouraging and now I know why. The film has a lot of stupid dialogues, to the point where I felt ashamed at times, the acting is terrible, especially Philip Ng, who plays Bruce Lee as arrogant, almost sleazy and unlikeable (he was excellent in Once…

A decent historical three-part piece with John Snow in the lead role, swinging his sword again and it fits him perfectly. 17th century England, the persecution of Catholics including brutal executions and torture and the planned assassination of King James I. A great dose of history, dark atmosphere, violence and good…

Compared to Mother!, I didn't like The Fountain that much, but it is still an interesting and unconventional film that intrigues, but doesn't really blow your balls off. A great Hugh Jackman and a beautiful Rachel Weisz, biblical references, great scenes with the Mayas, nice imagery and decent art, but I found it a…

A decent war film with Taliban starring a likeable Diane Kruger and the cool Djimon Hounsou. France has shown it can handle this genre too and it's not too different from an American production. There's quite a lot of shooting, but it bothered me that the film isn't R-rated and the shootouts aren't that exciting. But…

There aren't many expected horror movies left before the end of the year, I'm not even sure if we'll get anything interesting yet, but Mayhem is definitely worth a look, although I expected more based on the trailer. Mayhem certainly doesn't escape comparison with the recent The Belko Experiment. We're slowly building…
