The Polish continue their successful streak with Netflix, delivering another solid film. From a technical standpoint, there’s really not much to fault—it’s well-made and has plenty of entertainment value. However, the ratings don’t quite reflect that, and I think it’s partly because, after a series of high-quality…

Tim Burton is finally off the leash again, and honestly, it was about time. Where better to let loose than with the world he first introduced us to, packed with his signature quirky ideas? And he absolutely delivers. A sequel more than 35 years later is a bold move, but as a fan of Burton’s work, I can confidently say…

When you have to start a Tim Burton film several times to get through it, you know something’s off. I finally managed to finish Big Eyes, and to be fair, the story seemed tailor-made for Burton—personal, unique, and quirky. Casting Amy Adams and Christoph Waltz was a smart move too; they were solid in their roles. But…

This one felt a bit too “now” for me—too focused on today’s youth and their issues, with dialogue that sometimes felt like it was written for a toddler. That said, Jeff Goldblum clearly had a blast playing Zeus, and I have to admit, the soundtrack is a real highlight. The music choices were spot on. But even with a…

Before watching the sequel, I had to revisit the original—it’s been years since I last saw Beetlejuice. And yes, it still holds up beautifully. Tim Burton proved he was a genius back then, and I’m glad he showed Hollywood what he was capable of with this film. The sheer creativity, both in animation and ideas,…

In terms of Czech cinema, this is top-tier, and on the international stage, it's a solid above-average. I never would have thought that we Czechs could make a quality detective film, especially one based on a real person. We’re good at series in this genre, but films haven't been as successful. I don’t know how much…

I expected a great show, and I got a great show. Soderbergh is already an experienced pro in his field and knows what can elicit a strong response from the audience. Side Effects starts off quite innocently, with the first few moments being rather dull, but after Tatum’s death, the wheels start spinning and don’t…

So far, I had only seen Kormákur’s excellent Everest, so I was really excited to see how he would handle a full-fledged action movie. 2 Guns is quite a funny film with a star-studded cast, but on the other hand, it offers a weaker story and a somewhat illogical plot development, which definitely doesn’t do it any…

What’s going on? I’ve never been too lenient with Czech detective work, but lately, I’ve actually started to enjoy it. Well, I guess times are changing. I’m already familiar with the collaboration between Jan Pachl and Hynek Čermák from The Fury series, and I know this duo produces quality work. Gangster Ka is no…

The second part picks up right where the first one ends. Káčko is on the run from the police, leaving the country, and chooses the Seychelles and later South Africa as his next destinations. Now, onto the review. I really liked the yellowish filter used in the film. It gave it a touch more authenticity and especially…
