3DD!3

The thin veneer of civilization cracks under the pressure of cold and hunger... Former army surgeon forced to join a whaling trip choses conflict with a human monster whose greatest talent is survival. Colin Farrell excels in the role of harpooner Henry Drax, making watching The North Water a perverse kind of enjoyment, showing man in all his nakedness. O'Connell’s Sumner attempts to balance this by philosophizing under the influence of laudanum and the love thy neighbor style that he learned from the Bible, but the result is that battle he is fighting with his moral integrity is already lost. Beautiful nature and a raw approach to depicting violence. Something between The Revenant and Heart of Darkness. I'll gobble down anything you give me, any fսcking thing at all. I ain't fussy. Brains, bollocks, arseholes.

I just love these shorts. Disney+ rocks. It’s hard even to describe my daughter’s reaction to the episode with the puppies. Concentrated joy! Of course, a lesson or two is taught during this show, but it’s mainly about letting kids have fun. The storyline about training and about dogs being man’s best friend fits perfectly into the Up concept.

Cleverly written and masterfully made reconstruction of the last ever trial by combat between chevaliers of Medieval France. Wonderful dialogs and various points of view of the three main protagonists build up the atmosphere gradually, culminating in the final punch-up. The intense, bloody duel is the crowning glory of this exquisite acting recital delivered by Damon, Driver and Jodie Comer too. Similarly, Affleck greatly enjoys his debauched nobleman. Scott quite possibly came up with the movie of the year. P.S.: And once again, a great soundtrack from Harry Gregson-Williams. CONFESS!!!

I watched this again, years later, with my daughter and I’m shocked by its chilling authenticity. This dystopic sci-fi from Miller seems like it takes place in post-Brexit Britain. There’s a gas shortage and Alexa has gone round the bend. An energy crisis and a hard winter wipes out the whole population and the only person to survive owes his life to Mole. The punchline and Mole’s laughter at the end are brutally chilling.

A great genre piece with excellent dialogs and some snappy one-liners from Mitchum in the main role. Unexpectedly experimental in terms of form. The narration alternates in terms of type and tempo, unraveling the story down to its core and a surprising ending. P.S.: Good old Kirk Douglas rocks in this, one of his first movie roles.

The battle and the whistleblower who starts off Gosling’s case in the movie. Bautista gives a very solid performance and certainly didn’t waste his opportunity to impress. He does a nice job of presenting his character and the horrors that hound him in just five minutes. But it is a shame that none of the shorts were dedicated to Deckard. An anime would have sufficed. After all, he couldn’t just have spent all the meantime sitting in Vegas with his dog, drinking Johnnie Walker Black Label, waiting for The Director's Cut Blade Runner 2049 limited edition. Or did he?

The big black out of 22 is even more spectacular than I had imagined. Watanabe doesn’t mess about at all here. He paints the familiar gloomy atmosphere and lays on one action scene after another. A short that stands up by itself.

Bribe or terrorize? Which works out cheaper? In his demonic role, Leto demonstrates how to save money. He takes a test specimen and eliminates him effectively. Scott is no Villeneuve and his imperfect cuts and the shaking camera rather spoils the end impression, but it’s still really good.

Quite a decent appendix to the Army of the Dead, which looks good and runs pretty smoothly. It’s a no brainer, but the director and the main safe cracker Matthias Schweighofer did a good job. A plot out of nowhere throws out the bait, hooks you, and then you and Dieter just ride together on Nathalie Emmanuel. Prague is fine, but Saint Moritz is even finer. Nothing extra dazzling, but I’d probably rather watch this movie again than the aforementioned Army of the Dead.

Covid-19 ceased to be an issue with the vaccination and it’s time to move on. Toward a future full of pessimists, over-flowing retirement homes and politically correct humor. What do you call a trans woman that walks into an abortion clinic? Her name is Rebecca, and she's a fantastic person. Depression, negativity and suspicion. Although adulthood changed the heroes, they are still the same. The open ending implies where we are headed. To the an era of facemasks and ineffective vaccinations which will help to provide a nice nest egg for our elites. Because preventing old people from dying is what the future holds.
